This is Part 1 of a 3-part "Al Taqqadum Through the Ages" series || Full mission walkthrough at https://youtu.be/D49X054roSc ZZ ||
In 1941 a small flying school at RAF Habbaniya - modern day Al Taqqadum Air Base - found itself at the centre of control for the Middle East. Besieged by Iraqi Nationalist Forces, who were supplied and equipped by Nazi Germany, this handful of RAF officers and students, as well as their ground crews, fought off ground offenses literally just yards from their camp, aerial bombardment, and strafed enemy positions and airfield. In reality, the students flew out-dated biplanes against modern forces. For this mission, you'll be lucky enough to have a Spitfire.
You'll fly as one of the junior students in the middle of the conflict. Germans are resupplying Iraqi positions near Fallujah by train. You'll be tasked with its interdiction. You and your Flight Leader will disable the train, fight off bandits, and defend RAF Habbaniya.
