sepruda Posted February 23, 2024 Posted February 23, 2024 Hi Loving the campaign, though I'm missing the BMS flight model I'm having a bit of a hard time getting through mission 9. The weapons I have don't have much standoff capability, so keep getting shot down while trying to destroy some of the SA6 sites. In addition, I realize that tanking is something a lot of people want to avoid, but it would be nice to have the option to practice it at least. Also would be nice if not all buttons where set correctly for engine start, but I guess that's how the DCS Viper works. Thanks again, been waiting for F16 campaign for ages.

It's hard to talk you through exactly, as there is quite a lot of randomization in the mission and plenty of mission reaction to what you do...so things can play out differently each time. Very broadly speaking save Rotors HARMS for when you really need them, a HARM shot will have an effect, it will either kill the target or shut it down. Once an emitter goes active try to locate it before having Rotor fire a HARM, that way if it shuts down you can follow up with a kill shot. Also avoid getting too close to a SAM unless you're going in for a kill, the jamming should reduce the engagement range to help.
sepruda Posted February 24, 2024 Author Posted February 24, 2024 Thanks! That's sort of what I tried myself. I did actually almost complete it the first time, but then got greedy with a kill. 1
sepruda Posted February 25, 2024 Author Posted February 25, 2024 I managed to do it At the end when Action 2 was being rescued, I decided to do the old iron hand thing and got a SA6 to fire about 6 SAM'S at me. That was exciting. Then just as I exited with the Mission Complete graphic, the game crashed so in the end I had to skip it. Pretty sure I was at a 100 score too Great mission.

Oh dear that is an unfortunate crash! But sounds like a good mission performance . Glad you enjoyed!
