ArjenHVA Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) Hi all, While working on an open-source project about airstrikes in the Middle-East, I figured this data might be useful for DCS mission makers and players for some inspiration. Attached .KML (Google Earth) contains about 600 verified airstrikes throughout Syria from a variety of coalitions (everything under CJTF-OIR flag, RuAF, RuNavy, TuAF and IAF which are all in individual folders and colorcodes). It also includes a bunch of POI's such as combat posts, observation posts, heliports, etc. How this translates to DCS, I don't know. I'll leave that up to your imagination and creativity. This took some weeks to compose and checking every lat long also in the game was a bit too much. You can get a pretty good feel for the situation by using Google Maps, Bing Maps, Google Earth, satellites.pro to re-create the situation if the current in-game content is not sufficient enough. Hopefully it is of use! Syria AG targets v1.0.kml Edited January 16, 2021 by ArjenHVA 4 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aarnoman Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 This is insane. Well done, a fantastic resource for mission makers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aarnoman Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) On a side note, did you keep any information on what the various marks were for in a seperate document (date/time, video/news source)? Would be handy if you have, if not no worries. Awesome resource either way looking forward to building some missions. Would love to know more about this open source project as well, feel free to PM me if you are not wanting to share a link directly.

StevanJ Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Are there any plans to increase the number of cities airports? We only get the Airports and major cities west of Tabqa Dam (with the exception of Al Raqqah).. I know Cyprus is in E/Dev.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a bit of time consuming thing to do. A typical holiday thing so I might pick it up again soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great resource, exactly what i've been looking for! The website seems offline though somewhere since mid-2022. Thanks to the internet archive, most data should still be accessible, at least the 2016 data i read was: https://web.archive.org/web/20220516114241/https://www.inherentresolve.mil/Releases/Strike-Releases/ 1 Be aware of spam links posted on the forums Wishlist: Make textboxes scale like polygons | Eastern Caucasus map | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
