That should do it...

OK, I'll look at it. This could be a result of the updated AI aircraft ED has been releasing.

I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that I've uploaded free TrackIR 5 Mount files for 3D printing. If you've ever lost the base for Track IR you'll know what I'm talking about. It's a small but necessary part for the TrackIR emitter unit which is easy to lose but hard to find. They want, I think, $25.00 USD for a replacement if you can find one. Well, I've designed one and uploaded it to DCS User Files and is free to a good home. It's my thanks to all of you who've taken a chance with Agile Spear: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3327772/

This got my attention only because I had a similar setup with an MP3 player hooked up to my headset Clarke box but I played a Pink Floyd mix instead on my last two deployments. Worked really well until I got a firm talking to by the AC after one flight. Apparently it would bleed through into the intercomm when any of the backseaters (me included) would key to talk. I thought I had it filtered but appraently not. Was very cool while it lasted.

Hi Blackadder 55, Thanks for trying out our campaign. Mission 3 doesn't have a JTAC but you will get a message when you've suffificiently cleared out the threats. Try it again. Good luck. All the best. You can call me John.

Wow, just wow. Former maintainer I'm guessing?

I'm sure this has been covered but I just can't find it: Specifically, all red Air Defense units cannot (do not) target Allied air units under Advanced Actions / Triggered Actions > Perform Task > Attack Group. HOWEVER they can/do target ground units. Is it me - am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? I just can't believe this hasn't been discussed before now. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, John

The Mission 3 that is available now has been updated last week. Thank you.

I'm very happy you like the campaign. I worked hard to make it fun but also challenging. Thanks for the great feedback and stayed tuned for the further adventures of Lt. Col (he's been promoted) "Took" Key in Syria.

I did make it available - see the first post in this thread.

I've updated the free-to-try Mission 3 with a few changes above. The campaign will include the updated Mission 3 when available.

Yes, this is occurring which has been confirmed by a Time magazine report. However, both the Ukrainians and US officials have agreed that the A-10 is not the platform they really need so they won't be getting them.

No worries. Hope you enjoy it. Have fun.

That's great. Hope you enjoy the campaign.

I'm cross posting this interesting update regarding the A-10C's current upgrade path to maintain relevancy post-Iraq/Afghanistan: A-10 Warthog’s Tusks Are Being Sharpened For A High-End Fight https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/a-10-warthogs-tusks-are-being-sharpened-for-a-high-end-fight

Hello Fellow A-10C Pilots, I hope everyone is well and have avoided Covid. I just wanted everyone to know that a large update to Agile Spear was released with the last DCS World (Stable) release. It solves most, if not all, the bugs people have been experiencing and will be available to everyone who purchased the original campaign. One caveat is that if you do install the new update it will reset any progress you made in the previous installation and you will have to start the campaign from the beginning. I have no control over this as this is the way DCS World updates. My best to you and your families and thanks again for your support. John Schiller

Yes.

Unfortunately, the AI SEAD typically aren't very good and generally can't be relied upon to provide any assist. However, the anti-air for this mission aren't very good either as long as you 1. maintain your altitude and 2. maintain your distance. The loadout for this mission gives you 4 AGM-65D, Mavericks, which give you a 10 mile standoff and also Hydra-70 M282's which are excellent short-range missiles which give you a 5 mile standoff. If used effectively, you'll never come close to getting shot down. Good luck and (most importantly) have fun!

Yeah, I have to take the blame this time. I got slammed at work and wasn't able to complete all of the updates/changes I needed to make in time. Thanks for hanging in there.

Thanks, Yurgon. Hopefully, the updated campaign will be included in the next DCS World release.

No. Sorry. It didn't but it should be in the next one. Thanks for your patience.

I'm pretty sure I corrected this problem with not being able to communicate with Pig 2 and/or Kobuleti Tower. I'm pretty sure this been fixed as well (per the last update). Just waiting for ED to upload the corrected missions. John
