AG51 from me should be Ali Al Salem AB, except we get orders to move to RAS Assanya AFB. Edit: Primary mission is Recon and Anti_Ship, secondary is Strike.

If there´s gonna be a ground war, Germany can provide a Tank Brigade (Leopard 2A6). To bring them fast into position, there have been allready flights planned with aircraft of Volga Dnepr Airlines, a contractor in the NATO SALIS (Strategic Air Lift Interim Solution). Still WIP with some Meshes to be done, and other parts also mapped. Skin is even pretty early.

First AG 51 mission in Iranian airspace. RECON over Khorramshahr. Arriving over Target. After taking some pictures, Red Crown informs us about a single bogey. We decide to head back into friendly airspace. Over friendly territory the MiG opens fire. Ignoring me complete the MiG-29 goes after my wingman. I got a lock and missed him very close. Some turns later he decides to head home, so do we. Results of the image evaluation crew.

Those are no Landrovers. German "Wolf" jeep, "Unimog" light truck, Mercedes truck and fuel truck with Mercedes tractor unit. I never released those...

You need some more modern stuff, at least for the Airbases german units are deployed? Used them as terrain objects...

An E-2C from USS George Washington has tracked a bogey leaving Iran airspace south. A Tornado on patrol was tasked for identification. After the Boeing 747 of Iran Air was notified about a not working transponder, no further action was taken. The airliner continued to Dubai City...with now working transponder.

Not a new, but improved version of my old SF1 Tornado, like the A-310 MRTT (part of the Tornado model). Official Release is planned if i find a way to get the Refueler mod working.

Might be a good point to have this uploaded when everything is complete. Been done before everything is together, might mess things up.
