Night flight, picks up where we left off in Part I. See Alternate History Discord channel for more info.
PILOTS: SQUIRREL, TACO, MURF, ARRIBE, ENIGMA, CHUNKS, KESTREL, PRIMO, SPECTRE, DRILLIN
Threats: 4x Mig-21, SA-2, SA-3, AAA, Helicopters (2x KA-50s spotted by Ford Flight)
To Expand on the threat of Mig-21s:
- Enemy has 4x Mig-21s with unknown armament.
- Pattern of behavior:
- Will only engage within SAM range support.
- GCI guidance until engagement, so they won't paint you until they're ready to lock & shoot.
- In almost every engagement in part I, they snuck up on us.
- AWACS coverage inconsistent, even though E3 within ~130 miles. Contacts appear/disappear from SA page.
- If you are in Egyptian territory or SAM range, and you haven't hear 4 x "SPLASH" over the radio, you need to assume there are Mig-21s approaching you with radars off (and likely below your nose). They know our Look-Down Radars suck.
