A-10 Thunderbolts are operating from Safwan Airbase in Kuwait. They are
tasked with the job they were built for: Kill Soviet made armour.
You are to launch with Hornet Two and follow him at 15,000 feet ASL and
340KIAS to Waypoint 1. Your mission is to kill any enemy Migs who may try
to intercept the A-10s. CAP about your 3 Waypoints with Hornet Two.
Hornet Three and Four will launch behind you and CAP to the West of the
Enterprise.
Ensure that the A-10s survive to attack the T-72A tanks near your Waypoint
1. They will become "air-to-air" capable after they have dropped
their bombs. If any Migs get near them on the egress the "Hogs"will defend themselves with AIM-9 Sidewinders.
After the A-10s have deployed their ordnance escort them from the battle
area for about 3 minutes then head home to the Enterprise.
US Army Special Forces scouts have spotted a Hind at medium altitude
heading North West near your Waypoint 3. It may be spotting for the enemy
armour below.
Recover on the Enterprise. |
