Mossie FB please.
Just out of curiosity, what is the single mossie 'B' role?
That’s the unarmed Film Unit Mossie and an airframe habitually occupied (and jealously guarded) by our own @FoolTrottel.
Typically it’s there to provide an assessment as to whether the first two waves attacks were successful and to make the call to the 3rd wave whether to attack or take their bombs home.

Thanks guys glad you enjoyed it. We discussed doing it again next week but I am going to leave it for a bit.
Lessons Learned for next time
- Waypoints to targets to save time programming in at the start.
-
Tone down theSA13 and replace [some] withStrellaShilka perhaps - Have a second emergency airfield available for re-arm and re-fuel.
- Better direction / instructions about which way to take off.....
If you have any comments on the mission or ideas for other scenarios please let me know.
Edited for you
I would also place one or two SA-8s around to add some further tasking for the Wild Weasels.

Really loooking forward to this Col, thanks!
A tip, guys, from one who's flown a lot of night ops in the passed 12 months...
Know what your external light switch button binding is.
And whether it's a toggle or separate off/on.

Howdy pard!
Been a minute...!
Be good to see you in the virtual skies again old bean; if you have any queries, want some tips, hints and recommendations (or reading suggestions on the most appropriate forms of voodoo black magic to learn) to get to grips with DCS then we're here to assist, just ask.
Keep us posted!

Are we going to use in in game comms instead of TS?
It's something we need to configure and play with... definitely think we should try it out at some point!

- ME. Resource manager. Supplier arrow from previous mission remains in some case - fixed
- MP. Ships livery does not match livery specified in mission - fixed
- AI aircraft. S-3B Tanker. Updated 3d model
- Stennis CVN-74 is not available for spawn and landing without the SC module - fixed
- MP. Aircraft and missiles in flight "jitter" back and forwards - fixed
- AI aircraft. IL-76MD middle section can endure too many hits - fixed

- MP. The new rotor wash effect is not visible other clients - fixed
- Graphics. DLSS. FC3 aircraft HUD blurs with rapid movement - fixed
- The scripting function coalition.getPlayers() doesn't return CA controlled objects. Only aircraft set to player/client that are occupied are returned. As a result it is impossible to know which units are directly being controlled by Combined Arms players - fixed.
- MP. Net protocol changed, so old version servers will not be shown in the server list.
DCS: F-16C Viper by Eagle Dynamics
- Fixed: TDOA in MP causes severe server lag and 100% CPU usage on server.
- Fixed: TDOA generates frozen target
- Fixed: AA FCR is detecting ground units (Ground targets are displayed if they have radial velocity more or equal MTR value).
- Fixed: Performing the BIT test will remove lock tones from the RWR

Improved: Petrovich AI targets detection tuning. Now Petrovich will take into account more factors like:
- If target moving then detection is faster
- If target is on road then detection is faster
- If Petrovich already detected this target before and scanning same area again same target will take much less time to detect
- Added: Petrovich AI now scan for targets routinely from his cockpit when he is not using ATGM aiming sight. Petrovich will report contacts clock wise if he will detect anything. Contacts report if remembered and not spammed constantly, he only warns commander ones then some time should pass before he warns commander about same contacts again. Only subtitles for now.
DCS: A-10C by Eagle Dynamics

Hey chaps,
Some of you expressed an interest in improving your jet dogfighting skills, so as a starter I would recommend watching all of the following playlist:
This covers nearly everything (videos covering rolling scissors and high aspect BFM are yet to come) and watching all of them will take time but I guarantee you are going to have some minor epiphanies going through the vids as you suddenly realise why that thing you always do does/doesn't work; I know I did.
If there's anything you'd lile to ask, discuss or practise in relation to what you have seen, gimme a shout.
