Zag Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 I am currently playing through the shore campaign and got to mission 6. the objective is to destroy an enemy observation point in the mountains above the clouds. So the mission starts up, and the first thing i notice is the poor visibility, i can't see anything for 10 meters. No problem, just the perfect occasion to do an IFR approach. the actual mission was quite easy and uneventful, but while i was going back to sukhumi (my home plate) i tried to set up the approach and searched the CDU for the ILS freq. but there is no ILS in sukhumi even the F10 map doesn't show any ILS.... So i started panicking and decided to go for a visual approach using the spi on the hud to orient myself, i got as low as 200 feet and still no visual, i couldn't bear to crash my shiny new A-10 so i climbed up and quit, hoping to go to the next mission but nothing.

jazjar Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 I can't get past mission 1- the F-15 CAP is not capable of defending me from MIG-29s! DId you mod the mission or something? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

You could always have diverted to an airbase with an ILS. Using the CDU under the divert page, it will reveal nearby landing strips with ILS and TACAN frequencies if applicable.

Zag Posted February 8, 2011 Author Posted February 8, 2011 @jazjar: the first mission of the shore campaign is a CSAR, you are tasked to provide cover for the chopper against any enemy AAA while they pick up the downed pilot, and I don't remember encountering any enemy CAP aircrafts. @DocSigma: I checked the nearest friendly AB: Gudauta and no ils either. I may be wrong but i think that you have to land in your home plate for the mission to be a success [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
