I’m having a hard time completing the Wild Weasel mission. This is the mission where you need to take out an SA3 site and then some F-4s are supposed to take out an SA6 site. I’m not sure if it’s a bug but the second my wingman releases weapons he blows up every time. Then I take out the SA3s but the mission never completes. If feels like it’s not progressing after the enroute portion when my wingman talks about some road that’s getting bombed. Any thoughts? I stick to the flight plan at low altitude until the SA3 site is at my 3 o’clock while I’m heading south.

@BIGNEWY Can you please move this to the right location? Thanks a lot. 

 

@airjocky2 This campaign has it's own location on the forum, where I can monitor it and help you better. I don't want to give away any spoilers but your wingman has to snuff it. Also, you are most likely don't take enough of the adjacent units to that SAM site. You should have enough ordinance to clean the place up. 

 

Cheers,

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking maybe the wingman was supposed to go down due to the ELT sound but I wasn’t sure. (Nice touch). I thought I leveled the whole area with my rockets and bombs but the mission seemed to kinda stall out there and then I run out of gas before anything else happens. I’ll give it another go though and try to make sure I lay waste to the whole area and linger longer for the mission to progress. Now that you mention it one time I think I do remember hearing my wing man say something after he was down for a while.

I'll run a test tonight to make sure it goes the way it should.

I thought I’d give an update. I was able to complete the mission last night. It was probably user error. What I did differently was to try to fly the mission planned ground track more accurately.  I noticed right off the bat I started to get more of the scripted dialog. I’m guessing I might have cut some corners previously which might have caused me to miss some trigger points to progress the mission. Thanks for your help! It’s a fun campaign!

First of all: wow.  This is a great campaign!  I’m really enjoying it. Thank you. 
 

Alas, I’m having the same problem on this mission and can’t seem to figure it out after about six attempts. I lay waste to the SA-3 site but never get a mission completed. 
 

[MINOR SPOILER FOLLOWS]

I get the message that my wingman is down safely but nothing seems to happen after that. 

 

Any tips/hints to trigger the victory conditions?  I’m stumped.  
 

EDIT:  Just noticed this thread wasn’t moved to the campaign.  Disregard this and I’ll repost in the correct location.
