Mission Type Short range escort mission.
Ordnance Remove the centre fuel tank. Take 4 x R77's. The air opposition is pretty intense in this mission.
Tactics Rendezvous with the B-1B's at waypoint 2. This is important because
  • It's in your flight plan
  • This will put you in position to engage the first group of enemy a/c
  • By engaging the enemy from this starting position (WP2) you'll end up over the target with the B-1B's.
  • This is good because the enemy will try and close with them and you need to be right there to give close-in protection.


Use the Attack display - F11 - and adjust the scale to keep your Situational awareness up during the scuffle. Incoming missiles are shown as solid red lines on the display.
