I'd like to creat a 1989 Europe campaign for NATO and WP side.

 

Based on TMF's NATO 1986.

 

And I think more morden air combat will be more fun.

 

My idea..

 

Air unit:

 

WP

 

USSR:

 

31st Gv IAP MiG-29S

85th Gv IAP MiG-29S

986th IAP MiG-29S

35th IAP MiG-29S

73th IAP MiG-29S

833th IAP MiG-23MLD

33th IAP MiG-29A

733th IAP MiG-29S

787th IAP MiG-29S

159th Gv IAP Su-27P

582ed IAP Su-27

781st IAP MiG-23MLA/MLD

296th APIB MiG-27K/M

559th APIB MiG-27K/M

911st APIB MiG-27K/M

19th Gv APIB MiG-27K

20th Gv APIB Su-17M3/M4

730th APIB Su-17M4

11th ORAP Su-24MR/MP

294th ORAP Su-17M3

931st ORAP MiG-25R

357th ISHAP Su-25

368 th ISHAP Su-25

 

and some PVO Regiments..

 

MiG-23P/MiG-25P/MiG-31s

 

DDR/DGR:

 

JBG-37 MiG-23BN

JBG-77 Su-22M4

MFG-28 Su-22M4

JG-1 MiG-21SPS/-K

JG-2 MiG-21M

JG-3 MiG-29A

JG-7 MiG-21M

JG-8 MiG-21Bis

JG-9 MiG-23ML

FAG-15 MiG-21SPS/-K

FAG-25 L-39

 

Polish:

 

2-4 Regiments

 

CZ

 

11.slp - Zatec - MiG-29A

 

28.sbolp - Caslav - MiG-23BN

 

Maybe some more WP Regiments.

 

NATO side:

 

As NATO Fighter,but will do some upgrades...

I felt like a 1989 campaign would fit better than a 1986 one, some warming of the Berlin issue, et cetera. 1986 was a good moment for a campaign given the variety of aircraft still in service, but

1989 will do OK.

 

About the composition of the NATO forces, i suggest to add:

 

-F-15Es from SJ, (i´m not sure, however, how operational were they),

-Spanish Air Force F/A-18 (by 1986 they were still converting to the type,i suggest 12 Wing from Torrejon AFB, same unit as the RF-4Cs already deployed in 1986)

-F-16C (Maybe also from Torrejon AFB)

-Ever thought of USAF ANG F-16 ADF? I got 159 FIS on mine

-More Tornado ADV units: By the same reason Spanish Hornets weren´t deployed in 1986, there was only a RAF squadron, might be expanded

-I miss, from NF 4, F-111E from UH. Could have been of use

- Also, French Air Force could have got a role. Even Italians could.

 

On the other hand, F-5s, F-104s, oldest Phantoms and other old stuff should be, if not deleted, diminished

 

 

By the way, i have yet to meet a MiG-29 in campaign. So add a lot, please

I forgot to suggest the Portuguese A-7s, these were almost officially tactical reserves for the war in Germany. Could have been ok

The MiG-29S came later. This is the mod fitted for the R-77 (AA-12 Adder) missile. I think you mean the MiG-29 (isdelije 9.13) Nato Code Fulcrum C, the one with biger tank in the back and internal jammer.

I checked wiki and some PDFs...

 

Luftwaffen:

 

JBG 34 is upgrated to Tornado IDS,so there is no any F-104G in Luftwaffen.

 

JBG 32 have some Tornado ECR,not IDS.

 

RAF:

 

1-2 sqn updated to Tornado ( One updated to Tornado F.3 and one updated to Tornado GR1A

 

RCAF

 

The CF-5A is still in use. It is replaced after 1990

 

BAF

 

I checked,last Mirage-5BA was replaced after 1990

 

USAF

 

some Sqn updated to new aircrafts

 

For example:

 

23TFS F-4G--->F-16A_Blk15-NDC

 

And I 'e like to add at least one F-15E unit...maybe 335 or 336...

 

French and Italians and Spanish?

 

Checking...

No Tornado ADV served with Luftwaffe, check out, maybe ECR

 

Mirage5BA even served in Desert Storm, IIRC, i didn´t mean anything about them

Sorry,my mistake. I what to say A/G version...I always use Tornado GR..

 

So it is IDS....

ECR only serve with JaboG 32.

The other Squdrons fly IDS (AG 51 flyes Recce) or IDS-T.

JaboG 35??? never flew F-104 or Tornado.

only F-4F. After the reunion it was renamed to JG 73 "Steinhoff"

One Squadron F-4F and one with MiG-29G.

How about at that time some7 squadrons of F16A blk 10 /15 / OCU of the KLu and (if I remember it correctly) 6 squadrons of the BAF, and about 4 squadrons each for Norway and Danmark ? ..... Together a true swarm of Vipers.blink.gif NF 5A's still available in 2 squadrons in 1989.

Everything readily available for DL

 

Hou doe,

if you had the NF-5's you need to add Mirage 5 BA's ;)

RNoAF specific vipers with dragchute will be available someday (Dutch skin along, but I think they got some drag chute equipped F-16's quite late)

Posted

Right so, same timescale, same task, just different procurement policies, both replaced by F16's.

By the way: there were quite a few dragchute equiped Vipers around in 1989 from the later batches. The older ones were being rebuilt at that time.

 

Hou doe,

What about Yugoslavia?

I think they would be neutral in the beginning, but when the Soviets invade Yugoslavia, it would go on the NATO side

You know it is 1989...

yes, and at that point Yugoslavia did start to break apart, but there was still hope. The nasty break-up started 1990 and escalated into a war in 1991. But with the 3rd world war, i dont think Yugoslavia would break apart. It was preparing for this scenario over 50 Years, and the today republics would know it is not a good idea to break apart.
