Thank you for the answer ! As it turns out i was able to refuel on the inbound leg and then completed the mission with no issues. I guess people have different playstyles. I don't think i am heavy on the throttle on the way to the mission. However i am a bit on the mission area. That's because of the nature of the missions itself. SEAD is a task that requires being ready at all times to be on the receiving end of a SAM so staying at altitude and fast (360-400 knots) is always a good idea imho. In these missions the Viper is also pretty heavily loaded (2xbags,GBU's,Mav's,TGP,HAD,AA missiles and ofc the jamming pod)which requires more fuel to maintain a speed. Anyway's if anyone else isn't having an issue then i shoulnd't so iguess it's something on my end like you pointed out. Again thanks for the support !

Hello ! First i'd like to thank you for providing us Viper pilots with these awesome campaigns. I finished FIWOS and i was absolutely amazed by it. Of course that means i bought LOWOS as well and i am on Mission 4 currently. I am having a blast ! However i do have a complaint (more of a constructive feedback type of complaint). I love that you provide fuel plans and speed/altitudes to travel in order to make it back home on the starting fuel. It worked out great in FIWOS (i did use air refuel but more for safeety). However in LOWOS things aree different. I am currently stuck in MS4 and i cant seem to ccontinue thee campaign. The issue ? I crash just before i reach ARCO in my way home. AKROTIRI is a LOT farther away from the mission area than H4 was. This means that i basically limp my F-16 in the way to and back from the mission. Fuel on mission isn't great either. Unless you never use burner and you are stuck below 300 knots constantly you can never return home if you completee all objectivees. I know that once you hit BINGO you are supposed to go back but you havee barely donee anything in the mission by that point. Air Refueeling helpeed with that in FIWOS but in LOWOS there is an issue. ARCO is on orbit WAAAY far from your flight plan. He extends up to 60 MILES or moree from the entry to Silver and thats beecause he runs not parallel but perpeendicular to your flight plan. Meaning i constantly have to chase ARCO at MIL otherwise with the F16 limping in M0.58 i can't intercept him. But the reesult is always thee same. Crash cause i am out of fuel. I know that the Viper is a very fueel hungry plane on top of not being able to carry that much in the first place. I can't help but recommend to update ARCO to run parallel to thee flight plan our at least put it's orbit much closer to SILVER entry. Also it would help way more if we could refuel on our ingress route as well. That would help a lot more. Thank you so much for any feedback to this !
