Mission 03 question

[Dentedend10]

Hi,

In mission 3 as commander, am I supposed to switch to channels 16 or 17 myself? I had the command with Jester and the comms didn't fire on my first try.

I was already on my way back, trying to pick up the mission comms. Switched to channel 16 and 17 and then Jester started complimenting me on my accomplishment of becoming mission commander. This was supposed to fire off before ingress I think.

The last message in the message history was Pepsi going to Tac comms I think.

I had the usual radio setup of Channel 1 and 1 on the front with Jester command of Radio, and didn't see a prompt otherwise. But I'd understand if as commander I'm supposed to do it by myself

BTW, I ate all SAMs in this one. Not sure if the enemy even had any left.

No, you’re not supposed to mess with the radio. Jester switches channels for you. 
 

again, remember to send me a screenshot of the message history.

It worked this time as intended. I wonder if initially it didn't work as I had input some data into the bombing table early on in the mission.

The mission was very fun. I'm having real difficulty getting to the target though. The SA-6 launches like 4 missiles at me out of which I can dodge 2. This happens all before getting to the target, and with dodging my ToT is all messed up.

Looking at the Tacview, the Monkey Tornado flight takes out the SA-6, but only after my flight's ToT. Is that the planned timeline? I wonder how I could make it to the target. Jinking didn't help xD

The timings are all randomized a bit. But hey, this is training, and IRL nothing will ever go as planned
