According to the International Institute of Strategic Studies the Libyans were flying MIG-23, Mirage F-1C, Mirage 5, MIG-25, Su-22 and TU-22 (only 7)for all of it's fighters and ground attack aircraft. Of course that is not counting the miscellaneous trainers, support, transport and helicopters.

Yes, but neither site has VAQ-132 'Scorpions'. Nor can I find VAW-122 'Steeljaws', VS-28 'Hukkers', VS-32 'Maulers' or if I add the SH-3 units to the carriers either HS-15 or HS-11. I have searched Column5, Fist of the Fleet and here. Besides that, several of the other skins I have downloaded from the other sites ... MAY.... be edited slightly to reflect their 1986 assignments. Take for instance the VA-37 'Bulls' skin I downloaded from Fist of the Fleet the skins reflects it being deployed on the Saratoga, however in 1986 they were onboard the USS Forrestal and part of CVW-6. With a tail code of AE versus the AC on the current skin. The version on Fist of the Fleet is correct for the Bulls from 1971 until 1983 when they left CVW-3. I have not decided yet if I wish to alter the skins I have downloaded (and give full credit to the original painters) to reflect the assignments onboard the America and Forrestal. My campaign with edited skins (if done that way) will give full creidt for all mods used, skins used and planes used to their original creators. I know that there are many people out there that look at the small details like that. If the plane says Saratoga and it is being launched off the deck of the Forrestal they will... loose a sense of immersion.

I had not planned on it, but I suppose I could make a few of their units flyable. bear in mind they were flying MIG-23MS, Mirage F1C and Mirage 5 planes at this time.

Here is one of the custom skins I am having to make. It is not quite yet done but this is a stage along the way. You can at least tell it is VAQ-132.

Thanks baltika. I will have to take a look over my strategic nodes. I know I calculated just about every city on the map and tried to avoid cities that were extremely close together. (ie. used only one of the cities not both) I know the nodes are numbered properly and I thought i verified paths between them all. I will have to triple check those as well. I guess my other option is to reduce the number of cities involved and just cut down the number of total cities involved rather than trying to make close to every city a node. Is there an issue with more than one unit per node? I guess I will have to just play a little bit more. Thanks. I am aiming to please. I am very anal about such things and like stuff to be 100% correct and ready to go when I send this out to general public. I am having to do a couple custom skins as well since there aren't any of a couple that I can find.

I am looking for skins for VA-46 "Clansmen", VA-72 "Blue Hawks", VA-66 "Waldos" for the A-7 Corsair. I am currently building a campaign set in 1986 using the Libya terrain. All three of these squadrons were in the Med during the timeframe that I am building around. Any help would be appreciated. I can not find any here on anywhere.

Al Azizyah is a part of the city Tripoli proper. In fact as the map goes you really don't see a clear divider if I remember properly. There is unfortunately no air bases in or near Tripoli. I am far to inexperienced with modding this game to be able to add an airport myself. I have really only had WOV for about a month now.

Actually after I got the site for Column 5.... which I didn't know about until USAFMTL posted me a link, I am going with the A-7E now. If fact thanks to those two websites and this one here I have all the skins except for the 'Blue Hawks' now. So the campaign will be using the A-7E in it.

CVW-8 was deployed onboard the Nimitz during a Med cruise from Dec 86 until Jul 87. I have not officially finalized the dates of my campaign but with the current time preriod I am looking at the carriers would be America, Forrestal, and right at the early stages of John F Kennedy's cruise. (looking around 6 months after the initial bombings of Libya.) Also bear in mind this is a fictional campaign. (based around Libya building up forces following our bombing raid as a sign of defiance with a possible invasion of Chad or Egypt a result of it. It is quite possible that the Nimitz's Med cruise could not have been pushed up a few months to handle the situation in the Med.

I had been to the first and downloaded everything. Didn't know about the second. Thank you very much.

Which is exactly why I changed back to the A-7B Corsair for the campiagn. When I edited my original post I forgot to change the topic, and I can not go back and do it now.

No I think I just mislabeled the thread. That was my fault. I was going to use the F-8E for the campaign since those squadrons were originally flying the A-7E during the situation with Libya in 1986. I have since decided to go with the A-7B for those groups in my campaign since there are more skins out and available for the A-7. I have already been able to locate skins for my other two A-7 squadrons. Those being the VA-37 "Bulls" and VA-105 "Gunfighters". I also have been able to quire the skins for the applicable A-6 Intruder squadrons. Of all the aircraft I plan on using I am missing only those for the A-7s.

I hope he responds soon. Your best bet may be to shoot him a PM. I am building a more modern day campaign using some of the terrains and I could very well use some of the Nimitz class carriers. In fact the Nimitz in one that I would need.

That has to be the really most deperessing thing I have heard all day. I have been dying for some good more modern campaigns for WOV.

I have to admit I am very let down by that facet as well. It is always more enjoyable to be able to take off, fly, fight and land with your friends. Even letting us have the ability to edit the missions so that even the ones from SP could be used in MP would be a nice touch.

I downloaded this file and there is something very very wrong with it. The cockpit windows are so foggy/dirty you can not even see out of them. Is there a fix or patch to repair this?
