Jyge Posted July 3, 2024 Posted July 3, 2024 It's not really a problem to destroy the AAA on the dam, but after that I do not know what to destroy, the task force Zeus gets obliterated. I mean there are quite a few AAAs around and the load-out is only 2 Mavs and 4 MK-82s and nobody else seems to be doing anything. Is there targets one should prioritize or should one just go full bore and load the plane up to the ears with GBU-12s and bomb anything that moves? I would spend more time with this one, but with Air2Air Refueling it is a bit tedious mission to iterate around until success..
Gasalon Posted July 7, 2024 Posted July 7, 2024 I did this mission yesterday and since it said "loadout changes permitted" I just went with 8xJDAMs. You first need to hit your 2 targets at the dam and then scan the shoreline at the lake right next to the dam for additional AAA targets. I think it was the southern side. Just use the TPOD, they are easy to spot. It took me 2 tries because on the first the 2 AI F-16 who were supposed to help with the AAA on the shoreline managed to crash on the way to the AO. It is a lot of AAA targets and I went Winchester. On the 2nd try the AI F16s killed most of the AAA targets on their own. I would recommend that you prioritize the Shilkas over the Pickup's with the mounted guns since they are a bigger threat to the helicopters. I also would save 3 bombs for the choppers later because your wingman might be out of fuel at this time and unable to help you. @Looking Glass: I think it would be good to generally give unlimited fuel to the wingman. DCS AI is just too stupid to fly longer missions. 2

Looking Glass Posted February 4 Posted February 4 All Ai wingman have umlimited fuel for practical purposes
jspec3 Posted August 18 Posted August 18 Enjoying the campaign so far, but I'm stuck on this mission (4). It doesn't seem to be 'kicking in', for lack of a better term. Mission loads, I do autostart, then nothing happens. The follow me car doesn't move, there's none of the usual voice over like in the other missions, etc. No mods, updated to 2.9.19.13478 the other day. Thanks! 1

Im getting the same with this mission, did manual start but the Hummer just sits there and doesn't move and I'm feeling self conscious as the ground crew just stands around me in a circle silently judging me. I didn't do the Fire Test A or B and didn't do the FCS Bit but thats no excuse for giving me the silent treatment guys, I'm trying my best.
