dburne Posted May 15, 2021 Posted May 15, 2021 Perhaps I need to throw in the towel now. I am just not getting this mission this time around of flying the campaign. I got the mortar placement no problem. First tank I got no problem - it was stationary after I extended and started another run in, located and got it with FLIR no problem. Next tank - got it no problem using GMT. Thanks so much for that, very cool way to do it. Next tank - nothing showing up on GMT, so I assume it is stationary, but I just can not find it. Been trying this mission most of the week. Maybe will try again tomorrow.

Moving south to north initially but comes to test to the west side of the airfield and continues to fire.

Will have another go here soon. I will let ya know. This is one tough mission.

dburne Posted May 16, 2021 Posted May 16, 2021 Ok that's it. Today I can not even locate the second tank using GMT like I did yesterday. Several attempts. I think that's enough for me at this point. Apparently this mission is now way beyond my capabilities for some reason.

You have already beat it once. Next campaign is due out soon hopefully.

dburne Posted May 16, 2021 Posted May 16, 2021 Well I threw caution to the wind and gave it one more try and succeeded! LOL. Apparently I was working too slowly for using GMT today as tanks had already come to a stop. So used only FLIR and finally got them. Mission success!! 1 Don B EVGA Z390 Dark MB | i9 9900k CPU @ 5.1 GHz | Gigabyte 4090 OC | 64 GB Corsair Vengeance 3200 MHz CL16 | Corsair H150i Pro Cooler |Virpil CM3 Stick w/ Alpha Prime Grip 200mm ext| Virpil CM3 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Base w/ Alpha-L Grip| Point Control V2|Varjo Aero|

dburne Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) Mission 10: With simplified refueling how long should it take once I am behind tanker? I notified with intent to refuel , got directly behind tanker on left as if I were going to connect, and stayed there but never got any notice of fueling. Note I had no trouble with it in Mission 3. Going to have another go and see what happens.
