Very nice Tutorial. Best example yet of Close Air Support work with a JTAC (Joint Terminal Attack Controller)!

(JTAC formerly known as FAC - Forward Air Controller)

Excellent 9Line CAS briefing from Zipper-11.

And of course outstanding airmanship in the attack.

 

About the only thing missing was your INFLTRPT (In Flight Report) following the attack. :music_whistling:

OKay; maybe Zipper-11 didnt give you the "Cleared Hot" notice and you called "Maverick" instead of "Rifle" when you launched on the ZSU-23 but thats just niggley-picking over minor details.

Seriously though.... well done! REP inbound.

 

For any one curious as to how close DPS came to the "real thang" you can check through the Joint Tactics, Techniques and Procedures for Close Air Support in Joint Pub 3_09_3 available online in PDF format

:pilotfly: Skip ahead to Chapter V: Execution page 121 though (unless you're a masochist for military jargon and procedure)

WR, you are quite right. I should have used 'Rifle!!' Also Zipper 11 couldn't pronounce 'Abinsk' - but I didn't like to correct her!

 

Thanks Ruggbutt, I will PM the URL for the 'quality' version to you right now. Enjoy.

 

DPS.
