Slow Air to Air

Post by 0405 Andrew »

A quick question, which squadrons are capable and trained at attacking slow and low flying aircraft?

Scenario would be a c130 air bridge or helicopter operations.


1st Air Brigade Construction Group Air Force In charge of maintaining Port Stanley airbase operable.

Throughout the conflict, the airport installations were attacked with 237 bombs, 1,200 shells from the Royal Navy gunline and 16 missiles, however, it was never out of action entirely. Many sources claim that the runway was covered with piles of dirt during the day causing British intelligence to surmise that repairs were still in progress.[2] Craters were in fact heaps of earth placed there to make it look as though the runway was damaged.[30] In fact, the British were well aware that the runway was still in use by C-130[31] and attempted to interdict these flights leading to the loss of a C-130 on June 1.[32]
