Well, the F-19 campaign isn't happening yet. Need to do more modern jet flying first. Baby steps, so back to ODS. Doing something different than normal. I've joined the ranks of VMFA-232 'Red Devils' and their F/A-18Cs. Normally I fly F-14s or F-15Es. Our first mission started in the early morning. CAP around our home base. Three Floggers had managed to make it through the layers of death; Eagles and Tomcats. We bagged all three. I got one. Two and three bagged the other two. Second mission was armed recon. A company of Iraqi Republican Guard troops was heading south in Zils. Two had a malfunction (aka stupid non engaging wingman) so I had him fly cover for me. A well placed AGM-65E was followed by an MK.83 and two MK.20s. Three or four shacks per drop, and then a gun run resulted in some good damage. For my actions during this mission in the night skies above Southwest Iraq, I was awarded the Silver Star.

RIP, Jug. You'll be missed! S!

RIP Sir. (You can't trust Military Times to get anything right)

Interesting read. I can see why the Navy uses the older method for carrier aircraft, but not for all of their inventory.

Still seriously looking forward to this. The 4000 has always been interesting to me.

Hope he rots.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE

So I've decided what my Dead is Dead campaign will be. Frisbee driver. I'll do the NATO Fighters RSR campaign and include the RSR Mod F-19 missions at certain points in the campaign. I'll just keep transferring my pilot file back and forth between installs. EDIT: M*****f***ing SA-8s I already have to start over. No wonder the F-19s were down to 20% strength by the end of the book.

From what I found on M.A.T.S.

This is seriously awesome. Downloading now. It's my favorite book ever.

Cool!

I believe it was Eric and Brain32 while working on the Super Hornets, who did that. If I recall, the filter ended up being there during day and night missions.

The mission editor is a DLC. You can find it here, down towards the bottom of the page. https://store.thirdwire.com/store_dlc.htm

It's alright, with an attitude like that I wouldn't have asked you anyway.

I was expecting a bunch of light bars on your JKU, Dave.

For a campaign. If you're interested let me know here and I'll PM you.

That's a shame. I'll still proceed with what I'm doing. Might look weird. Oh well.

Title is asking it all. Are there any? Thought there were, or is that one of the other Scandinavia terrains?

Yeah well hopefully the wait for DCS Hornet will be worth it.

Happy birthday Enoc, and thanks saying the same to me yesterday!

Figured it out on my own. Just leaving this post here for a reminder to myself: VMA-231, VMA-542, VMFA-115, VMFA-333

How would a composite MAG assigned to a Marine Expeditionary Brigade have looked during, say 1986? Harriers and Cobras, obviously, but would it have also had a mix of F/A-18s, A-4Ms, F-4s, and A-6s?
