Final Mission Cloud Cover

[pachuco70]

Not sure if it was intended...but the cloud cover on the last mission was almost 100%.  I could not see the ground for most of the mission and navigation by sight was impossible.  Over the target, cloud cover was 100% and there was no way to see the target.   

Thanks.

Hm at target area I had two cloud holes, where I identified the main target city. So It is about to descend below 10.000 on brief heading.
Also time reference is helping. It's 4mins from IP.

Well I’m sure there were such days in WW2  

find a hole, descend below the cloud base, do whatever it takes to hit the target.  And follow Dai’s instructions.

Yea...LOL.  In "real life" I would have scrubbed the mission because there weren't any holes to go down through.  I will have to fly it again and see if the cloud cover varies.  I know I probably dropped the bombs on some poor French family farm house!  Having the navigator in this campaign has been fun...it allows you to concentrate on other tasks and adds to the immersion.

Clouds are dynamic in dcs so I can’t control where the hole is. That would be quite absurd too

 

anyhow, without a bombsight you need to go low to hit the target.
