1980s Theater
-
There are no tanker aircraft, the AI can’t fly (in 3D, 2D is cheating) all the way to China and back on internal fuel. Attacking the bomber bases is not practical or realistic. And the bases are well guarded.

I placed tankers in all campaigns. You can create manually tanker deep into see and you can flank the whole main part of theater. The bomber bases are far from FLOT and other bases and none of airbases are guarded more than one heavy SAM and maybe AAA or MAPNAD. If you can fly to airbase without beig detected and intercepted for a 4 ship flight a single SA-2/3 is not an issue…

KC-130? F-16 can’t take fuel from that.

It’s cool man. If we can do this, we can do anything ….
(not from Molni’s theater …. )

And BTW it can because in Falcon even the graphical representation basket is also a boom and refueling probe on other jets are also just a defined locations for refuel. Just move the basket to your refueling door.

Interesting. I wouldn’t mind if KC-130 was deliberate to restrict what aircraft could refuel. A good commander should be able to work around it. Naval aircraft tend to have longer range anyway. I’m just upset and venting because I haven’t figured out how to task all the squadrons properly. I’ve started the campaign over several times usually with fully manual ATO which is so much work.
I went to the store and bought a big piece of clear plastic (36x24") and printed the map. Hopefully I can keep tabs on all squadrons and AD BNs this way.

SA-2 haircut

Have a longer video of this flight coming up!

A horribly traumatic raid on Taetan and Ongjin airbases - I still see their faces at night. acmi: http://www.krauselabs.net/dump/taetanCrazy.acmi
TABLE OF CONTENTS
11:26 Cowboy flight has pushed ahead of the package to suppress the SA-5
14:00 NOE and about to do a pop-up
16:25 Pop-up attack on SA5/SA3
21:00 Preparing to do a pop-up with CBUs on SA-2 at Taetan
24:00 Furball and chaos -
A note to the video. MiG-23 BVR capability is very minimal and R-23 has quite a short kinematic range and is very, very vulnerable to beam and chaff. The real danger is the MiG-23MLD which has R-73 which makes almost as equivalvent in head aspect combat as MiG-29A.

Resurrecting an old thread, but finally got around to posting a BMS video:
I’m pretty damn rusty in this video flying the 80s theater. First flight in a good 4 months or so!
