S3 Series

Fighter Orders

1st off, there will be no Allies in the air until T+40 so our buffs should be ok.

1st Sortie:

352nd send 2/3 planes to F6 and another 2/3 to F7. The remaining 352nd send to CAP F12 at about 10K so they do not launch from there. Want them to be surrounded by ack bursts so that even without DAR they know they are there.

100th/AE send 2/3 to F23 to kill that DAR and have the rest CAP F14/F16. Again staying low enough to have ack firing so they know they are there. That will stop the Allies from using those fields.

4th send 2/3 to F21 and 2/3 to F30 to kill those DAR. The rest of the 4th CAP F11. Again low enough so the Allies know they are there. That will keep the Allies from using those fields.

After the Buff's are west bound, they can escort us out, The 4th and AE/100th with the KoN and the 352nd with the UMM/NS/RCAF. OR have them hunt Allies as a pack before RTB. This worked Frame 1. The Allies will be low and easy targets.

The fighters won't be needed, the Allies will have to up from F25, F27 and the CV. Fighters be on station by T+40.

Do vulch on any fighters trying up from those fields!

2nd Sortie

4th fly 10 miles ahead at 30K

352nd fly 5 miles ahead at 25K

AE/100th fly with the buffs.

Good luck all and have fun!

lol,
I think he meant DO VULCH any AL upping from the fields you are capping!

Also. DO NOT HIT DAR BEFORE T+40!!!!!!!!

There is no reason for us to carry bombs at all, correct?

There appears to be a clarification:

S3 SUNDAY APRIL 12th

The only DAR that you might want to bomb is 21, there is a 50 Cal there, all of the other Dar sites are undefended.

Of course, you could carry bombs and drop on the DAR while maintaing alt, then straffe if the bombs miss.

Hawk - are you going to call drop time?

Guys we have a free drop here. All fighter pairs attacking the dars should drop bombs on them first.....then shoot to destroy. There is no rush and you will net many more cannon rounds available to you after the attack.

There are 3 bomber groups. Target time is T+40. All bomber group leads should be prepared to call "away" as soon as they drop. Whomever types the first "away" call is clearing all fighters attacking radars to attack.

I agree Dew...

An exact drop time is crucial to our being totally DOMINATE in frame 1. Suggest take time and position like Chess and attack at once without mercy and leave without loss.

Also, the 150%(?) of the 352nd will do best with 100%.

Juice

Ok Juice, let's see what we can do to accomplish this in the short time we have.

<S>

133% of the 4th FG pilots to attack DAR's 21/30 and the rest of us cap 11, copy . (just teasing, nice plan sir)

Personally, I see no reason for not carrying bombs on all zeros. All fighters can simply lob their bombs at fields from 10k-15k at the "all units drop" order, which might take down a few buildings. Having smoke coming from several fields will confuse the Allies as to what targets we are actually going for.
