Mission 5 - Paco's phrase "Take tac on my left/right wing"?

[Pegas44 (Andrey)]

What does it mean to "Take tac on left/right wing"? - Which formation type?

[Reflected]

The first time he says it there is an on screen message too, to help you. Basically you spread out to 1 mile abeam into ‘tactical spread’ formation

[Pegas44 (Andrey)]

Thanks, and what is the difference between 'tactical spread' and 'combat spread' then?

I guess they're synonyms.
