Enhanced Rolling Thunder campaign
Forlorn replied to Forlorn's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Ah, whole RL was a bit too much for the first attempt. So back to a single campaign: Oriskany 66. Join CVW-16 on the 2nd deployment of the USS Oriskany during Vietnam War. Campaign focus is upon alpha strike simulation. Flyable aircraft: F-8D, F-8E_GF, A-1H, A-4E - all with the correct numbers, tailcodes and skins. -

Enhanced Rolling Thunder campaign
Forlorn replied to Forlorn's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
After reading several books about the Navy actions during Vietnam War I decided to bring up a campaign with actual data behind. I removed all USAF units since the Routes were service based - and the campaing in stock WoV were a bit dull - I mean everytime a Thud squadron was moving through the thickest SAM, for a target in the same alpha strike area. That never happened during Rolling Thunder. I also added the actual carrier cruises (which were very accurate in stock WoV), added high quality skin and made them available in their tour time. Every unit with a new skin is actually placed on the carrier and tour date. To avoid performance issues with Mytai's high quality F-4 skin i made a choice to place a squadron to another tour - one skin is 300 MB. ;) I also fixed some issues like hooks, numbers and supply so far. I will upload later the current changelog. Use the link above. -

I am working on an enhanced Rolling Thunder campaign, check the link for my changelog so far. (mainly eyecandy atm). Any suggestions? Is there a way to change the base for carrier based units? for example I tried to assign first the Intrepid and later the Coral Sea as base - no luck yet. changelog thx :D -

Actually I got shot down by flak recently. -
AV-8A Harrier Avionics/Targeting systems?
Forlorn replied to Wedge's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
The Harrier is a ground pounder by heart. The SeaHarrier (now retired) is a great air-to-air fighter during Falklands and also got upgraded with AMRAAM missiles. Some links: Sea Harrier Harrier -

Avoiding SAM's in WOV????
Forlorn replied to F-4PhantomII's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I used this thread oat SimHQ to add at least some chaff to more planes as in stock models. On many pictures and documents during Linebacker I/ II I read and see chaff used alot. Most of the time by planes with only that mission but since the campaign engine is unable to copy that behaviour. Without this nearly 80 percent of an alpha strike package will get shot down with the AI unable to avoid SAMs and the waypoints set upon airfields and SAM sites. -
In the great addon the marked errors occur on all variants of the F-4F.
