Alright. I think I found the problem. The strike element turns home because it has burnt all it's fuel. For some reason Hornets seem to use full burner even when changing altitude for 1000 feet and as before they are climbing with very shallow angle and now it causes them to burn their tanks empty.

I already made a fix for this mission by setting unlimited fuel for the strike element. As this wasn't the case before the latest DCS update I think there is something wrong with Hornets now. It might affect on other missions too. I reported this to ED and hope they'll find some root cause for this behavior.

Yes. Hornet use after burner. but not really i think. only visual burn effect.

That's what I hoped but when checking their fuel state via SA page they are empty before reaching the target. No more than 30 minutes after launching.

The mission has worked without a problem for a year now but this is something new. As unlimited fuel wasn't an option by the time the mission is made it wasn't used.
