An updated version of Khashumi Gap (v2D) is now available on the 2.5 Missions Dropbox.

The briefing within the Mission Kneeboard has not yet been updated.

The mission described in this thread is not the one planned for tonight.

Following the failure of some elements of this mission to react correctly in the running of Kashuri Gap on Tues 19, I am currently going through it again, and hope to have a better (I don't guarantee perfect!) version for next week.

As before it will cater for the F-18 OCU flight of 4, 2 Harriers, between 2 and 4 F-14s and F-18s, and between 4 and 8 A-10Cs. The plan is for the Harriers to deliver retarded bombs; the F-18s to deliver HARM, chase down AHs and Su-25s, and mount CAP; the F-14s to mount CAP; and the A-10Cs to deliver CBUs, Maverick, and GBUs. All F-14 and F-18 pilots should, ideally, be able to carry out AAR, and/or be prepared to re-arm and re-fuel back at base for a second sortie. No early teas!

Quite a few things. The artillery didn't spawn; at least 2 of the Red AH showed signs of being shot up prior to start - including trailing smoke; several of the timings didn't work; etc. I am trawling through them at present, and am still having difficulty with the RU AH spawning in the shot-up state. Very puzzling.

The artillery should not require to spawn what so ever, it should be already on the map on mission start! Very strange indeed!

I have discovered from the DCS Forum that the M-24, is bugged and always shows this effect, but it does not affect the operation or effectiveness of the ac. I will look at replacing it with another type, since the smoke is a real giveaway to anyone looking for it.

Is AAR a must for the F14? I ask as I don't really have it fully down with confidence yet and with my current flightstick (old T flight paired with an x55 throttle and not had chance set up my new Virpil this weekend to try that) its like threading spaghetti through a needle with boxing gloves on? No issue doing RTB and re-arming etc.
