MISSION
Dealer flights will fly a A2G combat air patrol throughout Syria, starting an hour before sunrise. Each Dealer flight has a different flight plan, covering primarily northeastern and central Syria.
Mission Commander and Flight Leaders should expect to be called over tactical frequencies for targets of opportunity throughout the patrol. RTB criteria is fuel emergency or winchester.
Syrian airspace is light at this time, expected to be more busy as the Sun rises.
Refueling tankers are spread across the region, there should be no problem getting a top-up if needed.
THREATS
- MANPADs everywhere that friendly forces do not control.
- Possible harassment and unprofessional airmanship from Chinese fighters.
ROE
WEAPONS FREE (on assigned targets). It is highly likely that given targets will be in dense urban areas. Carrying a FLIR pod is mandatory and verification needed to ensure civilian areas are not struck.
