F-84e 001 - Scramble " Your airfield is under attack by a flight of four Yak-9s. Your flight of four F-84e Thunderjets must scramble and destroy them. The enemy will inevitably inflict some damage to their ground targets, so don't get frustrated if the whole airfield appears to be blowing up around you - this is war. Just do your best to hang in there and destroy them. You'll particularly have to manage your energy to get behind the Yaks and stay there long enough to pump them full of bullets. A single notch of trim-up will help tighten your turns, and extending the air brake will help you prevent an overshoot. After a short while, a flight of four F-51 Mustangs come to your aid, and the tide will turn for the better. However, with all those friendlies up there, be careful not to get caught in a mid-air collision. Soon after the F-51s arrive, a second wave of four more Yak-9s, will attempt to bomb the airfield. They should now be greatly outnumbered, and the F-51s will help you destroy them. When all eight Yak-9s are dead, or out of range, you may complete your waypoint path and land. The strip at Kimpo runs 143 degrees/323 degrees, and you may land from either end. Once you have come to a stop on the runway, you must then press X to end the mission. Alternatively, you may wish to press X repeatedly in order to warp through the waypoints and end the mission without landing. One of our Beta testers recommended the use of timed rockets to hit the Yak-9s before they had chance to drop their bombs: "As a quirk of unlimited ammo, I had timed rockets aboard. As I roll down the runway for takeoff, I target all of them. At lift-off, gear up, they're about 7K meters away and closing fast. I fire a salvo of rockets, and get them ALL! (well, the first time I got 3 out of 4). The timed rockets go off at a range of 3K meters. Have learned from and used them successfully in CFS's stock and imported WWII missions. You still have to learn to aim them to be effective. You just can't let loose and hope to get lucky. That's what happened to me the first time, when one Yak got thru, but was trailing smoke. Its a matter of timing your judgement, speed/distance of enemy, and a little luck." " |
