Getting fed up with mixing a mission without proper plan in mind, I decided to go ahead and search net for tactical mission planning, in context of A-10, to get zapped by this GREAT article by Capt. Andy Bush.

 

Hog Basics : RAF Bentwaters 1982

 

I understand what he offered is just the shell to a cluster-fVck of tactics similar to these, but I wonder if you guys know if similar real life tactics guide for the hog pilot... like is there a manual for the operational planning?

 

For example, you loiter, plan at least IP 3 nm from target, bump point, pop-up point... etc...??

 

I mean just this guide made my experience alot more realistic and I was happy with the outcome..

 

I wonder if there are similar guides or material like this out there. Books, etc... all appreciated.

Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.

Most of those types of details are best kept to ones self, I should think. ;)

I would look in AFTTP A-10-3-1, except for the fact that it is secret :(. I like this article a lot as well.

AFTTP 3-1.A-10, Tactical Employment

AFTTP 3-3.A-10, Combat Aircraft Fundamentals

 

I believe these are what I'm looking for? unless they are like the document that listed them. meaning like 3-1.A-10 gives another infinite list of references...

Aren't you a charmer! :pilotfly:

No, 3-1's are secret and unavailable to the public. That's what I was trying to say. They DO have everything about employing the A-10. equations for pop up attacks, approved tactics for specific weapons. You cant just go up and shoot stuff in the air force like you do in DCS A-10C.

He's saying he doesn't have them, and wouldn't share them if he did. Classified material.

Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing

If you want the real thing then you had better join the REAL Air Force, not a sim club.
