In the first frame of the series the Allies went south targeting the three coastal radar sites along the coast to Normandy. A total of eight missions were assigned with B25Js and two types of mossies tasked with taking them down. The attacks on F100, F133 and F168 radar installations were timed right but the Luftwaffe was lucky for them patrolling not far away and several intense battles soon came down to the waves. Escorting Spits tried to help but at least 18 B25Js and Mossie bombers were lost. Both radar stations were destroyed and later in the night F133 was finally closed. Thirteen defending German fighters were claimed in the battle, 6 to guns of the B25s. In the end 35 Allied aircraft were claimed for 13 Luftwaffe losses. Three radar installations were destroyed and a boat sunk at 126.

German victory in frame 1. They scored 89 to 60 over the Allies. Though outnumbered 43 to 23 they concentrated well and inflicted heavy losses to the two allied bomber types.

Notes:

1. Some reports on the Dh98 IVB being "difficult" Could be because its an unusual plane to fly with outstanding performance capabilities. Worth a checkup by the FM team.
2. With only 9 out of 43 allocated to strike the Allies need to dedicate more pilots to at least the Typhoon so a wider range of targets can be hit or finished off. Down low the Typhoon and Mossie FB are tough to catch so precision strikes are possible.

Any one location may only be attacked, or assigned to be attacked, ONCE during the Series.

The Radar Emitters at F-168 don't happen to be mounted on a concrete base but on the roof of TWO Ops. Centers. When the Allies managed to kill the Radar Emitters, they got a whole 0.5 points extra for the two "ancillary structures" that happened to be under the emitters.

Luftwaffe can win this without exercising the option to do dangerous spec ops into England. The key is stopping the Allies from getting the max twelve missions in a frame. Luftwaffe will get more for their special ops and shooting down enemy aircraft to make up the difference between the two sides. The latest update may have effected your rides so I suggest testing them out. The key fighter matchup between the 109G6 and Spitfire IXE is reported to be a good one. FW190s probably still need work.

It cost the Axis Squads a whole bunch of airplanes, BUT everybody did a great job at interdicting the Allied Advance. It is a pleasure for the 352nd to fly with our Axis Associates for this Series.

EDIT: Thanks to our Janitors for providing Ch. 112 Service during the Frame. While true that "by the time we get there, they 'should' be gone", with limited resources, it is pleasant to believe that reaction is possible to strikes which don't happen to occur directly under one of our flights. <S> Janitors


Happy trails...
