Gulf of Sidra incident 1981

[Reflected]

 

UPDATE 7/24/2020 - Supercarrier version added

 

UPDATE 19/11/2020 - Updated with the F-14A

 

While my Tomcat campaign is nearing completion and waiting for the Supercarrier module, I made a free single mission for the community's enjoyment.

 

This is a single mission recreation of the 1981 Gulf of Sidra incident, when two F-14s of VF-41 shot down 2 Lybian SU-22s. The mission does not only recreate the events accurately, but uses the original radio recordings as voice overs, so you can re-live what Fast Eagle 102 and 107 went through 30 years ago.

 

The mission comes with custom briefing and kneeboard pages, historically accurate custom skins, original radio transmissions and other voice overs by Epolta. It can also be played in Multiplayer with a human RIO.

 

Paste the skins to C:\Users\....\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries\f-14b

and the mission to C:\Users\...\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Missions

UPDATE!

Now that AI Tomcats can take off from the Stennis again, I updated the mission so that your wingman takes off after you not before. I also fine tuned the Tomcat skins. Just re-download the mission if you like.

[ataribaby]

Perfect! :)

 

About idiotic <BR> bug in user files - I always keep pristine description in txt file and always replace it with that during mission update upload.

UPDATE!

 

The mission has been updated with the F-14A

[Matthew Flies]

Is this still the right path to drop the skins?

C:\Users\PC User\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries\f-14b

 

Just looks weird cause I have to create the path Liveries\f-14b by my own and with the change in to the F-14A the it still has to go to f-14b?

 

[Reflected]

No, it has to go in the A folder.

Updated for 2.7 - please re-download
