MISSION:·
- The strait of Tiran is under Egyptian blockade, enemy tanks and infantry are massed on all borders, UN Peacekeepers have been withdrawn from the Sinai at Egypt's request, and the Johnson-administration refuses to guaranty support unless Israel is attacked first.
- Unfortunately, if Israel waits for that moment, its resources will be overwhelmed and the IAF left hobbled.
- With Field Marshall Amer's rhetoric long-past a boiling point, and political dealing with the U.S. reaching dead ends, the decision came down this morning to destroy Egyptian airfields and and exposed jets with every airworthy IAF jet.
- The Mossad has prepared for this eventuality, having tapped into a Russian-supplied Early Warning Radar and determining it has a blind spot between 1,000-1,200 feet: this will be our ingress altitude.
- The Mossad also has a high-ranking source inside Egypt who revealed that Field Marshall Amer orders all SAMs to stand down anytime his plane is in the air. Egyptian SAM crews are inexperienced with the newly-arrived SA-2 and SA-3 batteries from Russia.
- The Field Marshall is due to inspect the front lines by plane this morning...
- ORDERS: DESTROY YOUR DESIGNATED RUNWAYS AND ANY EXPOSED EGYPTIAN JETS ON THE APRON OR RUNWAY.
Tasking: Strike AzZaqaziq Airfield
1. When ordered, Depart Kedem airbase after friendly Mirages and proceed to your hold point (WPT 1 / BULLS) at 24,000 Ft.
