02 July 2023 - Operation Enduring Resolve Week 3

Post by Hedgehog » Sun Jul 02, 2023 11:44 pm

VFA-41 launched from USS George Washington in 3 flights for an A2G combat patrol carrying laser-guided bombs to deal with targets relayed to the flights from airborne command and control.

Dealer 1 and Dealer 2 flights received tasking and target coordinates for several tactical and close air support missions. Dealer 3 was mostly on an aerial sight-seeing tour.

While no mission aircraft were directly engaged by enemy aircraft, all were shadowed and/or harassed by fighter jets of unknown ownership. Dealer 1 was unable to refuel as the tanker took evasive action when the fighters got too close. Below bingo fuel, Dealer 1 diverted to Damascus, while Dealer 2 and Dealer 3 flights recovered safely on the ship.

Dealer 1
1 - Hedgehog: gnd tgts, landed at Damascus.
2 - Crash: gnd tgts, landed at Damascus.

Dealer 2
1 - Maniac: gnd tgts, trapped.
2 - Ticman: gnd tgts, trapped.

Dealer 3
1 - Chaos: trapped.
2 - Rhino: trapped.

Mission Success! :1cool:
