bob_baer Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Hi guys, I'm wondering if I'm using the right tactit to run in (maybe not considering the results). I'm approaching target given by JTAC duirectly at low altitude but it's difficult to find it everytime. Increasing altitude I'm scared of MIG and SAM. Do you use different tactics? Is there any good manual? thanks
winz Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Clear weather + targeting pod = +15000ft for me. CAP is there to handle Migs. SEAD is there to handle medium-high altitude sams. Flying low is a good recipe to have your day ruined by manpads and AAA. :) The Valley A-10C Version Revanche for FC 3

Spotting targets is more difficult from up there though, but not if you're just having the JTAC point you to stuff to blow up. You gotta look at the threats and make the judgement call yourself.
