Carrier Missions Pack (SFP1/SFG/WOE) V2.10

Carrier Missions and Training Pack for SFP1/SFG

Welcome to the ‘Pack’ for Strike Fighters Project 1(SFP1)/Strike Fighters Gold(SFG)*, which provides basic carrier training and operations missions using (mostly) stock aircraft.

 

*Although only tested in SFP1/SFG, it has been reported to me that these missions and the Libyan terrain work equally well in Wings Over Europe (WOE).

 

Updated to V2.00

This mission pack has had a major update.

1. Re-vamped US fleet to be defined as types and also targets, to greatly simplify mission file contents and make it quicker to load missions.

2. Re-wrote ReadMe to point at currently available ships from the A-team - ReadMe is now also in HTML to make it easier to link to all pre-reqs.

3. Renamed mission files to make it easier to distinguish between carrier training (CT) and carrier operations (CO) missions.

 

Updated v2.10

This mod has been updated on request to remove direct links to any Capun and A-team prerequisite models. Instead, please contact Capun for access - details enclosed.

 

Acknowledgements & Disclaimer

Thank you to all those modders that have provided the prerequisites I have used in my mission packs. If there are any problems with these missions and my own mods, then please contact me directly, not the authors of the prerequisites. Many thanks.

 

Missions Included in this Pack

This Mission Pack contains 16 missions per Stock SFP1/SFG aircraft and a few specialist missions for the A-5A. That's over 100 training and operations missions in total!

 

The stock aircraft provided for are: A-4B, A-4C, A-4F, F-4B and F-4J.

 

The Mission Pack also includes bonus missions written as a special request for the A-5A that include a long-range low-level Nuclear strike mission.

 

The naming conventions used for each mission are described as follows:

 

Stock Aircraft (using A-4B as example):

 

CT-LB A-4B© = Carrier Training Mission (simple take-off, circuit, land), Libya Terrain (CTF-60 6th Fleet in the Mediterranean), A-4B aircraft, Daylight, in good clear weather, Mission time is ~20 minutes

CT-LB A-4B(CN) = As above but at night*

CT-LB A-4B(CBW) = As above but in bad weather** (low thick cloud, rain)

CT-LB A-4B(CBWN) = As above but in bad weather at night

 

CT-LB A-4B® = Refueling mission with KA-6D Intruder, RV with tanker, fly a long circuit and then land, Daylight with good clear weather, Mission time is ~30 minutes

CT-LB A-4B(RN) = As above but at night

CT-LB A-4B(RBW) = As above but in bad weather

CT-LB A-4B(RBWN) = As above but in bad weather at night

 

CO-LB A-4B(AS) = Carrier Operations - Anti-ship mission, Scramble to meet incoming enemy patrol boats, Daylight (dawn) in good clear weather, Mission time is ~20 minutes

CO-LB A-4B(ASBW) = As above but in bad weather

CO-LB A-4B(AS2) = As above but fly as part of the 2nd flight, Attack similar targets approaching from a different direction

CO-LB A-4B(ASBW2) = As above but in bad weather

 

CO-LB A-4B(I) = Carrier Operations - Intercept, Scramble to intercept enemy Migs approaching the fleet, Daylight (dawn) in good clear weather, Mission time is ~20 minutes

CO-LB A-4B(IBW) = As above but in bad weather

CO-LB A-4B(I2) = As above but fly as part of the 2nd flight, Attack similar targets approaching from a different direction

CO-LB A-4B(IBW2) = As above but in bad weather

 

A-5A Bonus Missions (including Nuclear Strike Mission):

 

CT-LB A-5A© = Carrier Training Mission (simple take-off, circuit, land), Libya Terrain, A-5A aircraft, Daylight, in good clear weather, Mission time is ~20 minutes

CT-LB A-5A(CN) = As above but at night, in good clear weather

CT-LB A-5A(CBW) = As above but daylight in bad weather (low cloud, rain)

CT-LB A-5A(CBWN) = As above but at night in bad weather (low cloud, rain)

 

CO-LB A-5A(S) = Carrier Operations, Strike mission deep into Libyan territory. Knock out a Nuclear weapons research site, Daylight in good clear weather, Mission time is ~2.5 hours

...Watch out for multiple SAMS and AAA en route – stay low and fast

...Watch your fuel supply – avoid using AB - you'll be on vapours on final approach!

CO-LB A-5A(SN) = As above but at night. (Landing is just after dawn)

CO-LB A-5A(SBW) = As above but in daylight in bad weather

CO-LB A-5A(SBWN) = As above but at night in bad weather

 

*Night is depicted by just before dawn (~05:00) so that landings are in twilight (because the fleet is not illuminated in Stock SF and I wanted to make it at least possible to have some idea where to land after the mission is complete).

 

**Bad weather is depicted by heavy low cloud and rain.

 

Read the enclosed Mission Briefing .jpgs for more details about each operations and refuelling mission.

 

Waypoints are provided to guide you to the tanker or target, then onto approach and home, landing back on the carrier.

 

Pre-requisites are listed in the README, together with installation instructions.
