Playing around with campaigns

[xclusiv8 35]

Hii guys. I am making a merc campaign for myself. Its set in 1989. USA has left Dhimars side because the cold war went hot and they are occupied elsewhere. So my questions is, since Dhimar is so rich i am going with the thought that they would buy alot of hardware from USA. What military hardware would be available for Dhimar in 1989? The same questions goes for Paran but they are buying from Soviet.

 

Thank you!

 

Edit: Where can i find the Squadron names for the Dhimar Airforce?

 

I just relized that this should be in the missions and campaigns forum. Can a mod plz move it?

F-16s would be the best bet for Dhimar, widely exported and multi-role but I've always liked seeing them with a mix of british/french planes too.

 

As for Paran, Mig-23s/27s would probably be the most common fighter available, with some mig-29s thrown in as new replacements and Su-22s as bomber squadrons.

 

Names, I can remember seeing anything more colorful than just numbered fighter, attack/bomber squadron. Get creative if you like!

dhimar would be a sort of Saudi like empire so some F-15s wouldnt be unrealistic. of course Iran bouoght Tomcats while they were still counted amongst the good guys as well. petro-dollars open alot of doors!

Thank you guys. I have another question. In the Campaign_data.ini there is a line called intelligence. Only the Paran side seems to have it on theire fighters. Why is that? What does it do??
