Reason: update according current implementation
9-143
Is: “It is interesting to vary the time of the TE to avoid having all TEs starting at 0000z (1000Lt)”
Proposed: “It is interesting to vary the time of the TE to avoid having all TEs starting at 0000z (0900Lt)”
Reason: Time zone in Korea is UTC+9
9-144
Is: “The initial plan for this TE also calls for the destruction of the nearby Soktam-Ni radar station.”
Proposed: “The initial plan for this TE also calls for the destruction of the nearby Tach’ung-ni (previously Soktam-Ni) radar station.”

Proposed: "Click OK and repeat the same process for the other 3 flights. First create two flights of 2 Korean block 52s and then create 4-ship block 50 for Escort with target pointing to one of the Strike flights.
Reason: When Escort flight is created before Strike flights, it is impossible to point Strike flight as the escort’s target.
9-148
Is: “Steerpoint 4 will be the PUSH point over the small village of Yongp’a-don, 38 Nm NNW of Incheon.”
Proposed: “Steerpoint 4 will be the PUSH point over the small village of Yongp’a-dong, 38 Nm NNW of Incheon.”

After sentence “Steerpoint 5 is the package IP. The SEAD flight will start their SEAD duties enroute to Steerpoint 5 and will continue to do so until the strikers are safely out of the target area. Assign altitude accordingly.”
Add (proposed): “Note that strike flights in this example by default have IP assigned to steerpoint 6. To make all flights have IP on steerpoint 5, delete the original steerpoint 5 for strike flights.”
Reason: Strike flights by default in this example have one extra steerpoint, as compared to SEAD and escort flights.
9-149
Is: “055200z for the Strike flight attacking the Radar station.”
Proposed: “055205z for the Strike flight attacking the Radar station.”

Proposed: “Add a MiG-29S Fulcrum-C squadron at Sunan airbase, a MiG-23ML Flogger-G squadron at Kalma and a MiG-25 Foxbat one at Ongjin.”
Reason: Discussion about MiG-29’s loadout mentions AA-12 missile, which is only supported by Fulcrum-C variant. Since we provide exact name of the MiG-29’s variant, exact names of the two other types of aircraft are updated as well.
