Tripoli—once a vital port—is now the operational nerve center of rebel forces in the north. Coalition forces secured air superiority early\, eliminating the Lebanese Air Force. The enemy adapted quickly—abandoning conventional warfare and dispersing into cities\, villages\, and the eastern highlands\, where they are harder to track and harder to strike. \nUnder cover of darkness\, coalition naval forces executed amphibious landings south of Tripoli\, establishing a foothold and beginning the push inland. Since first light\, resistance has intensified. Over the past 72 hours\, coalition units have reported increasing navigation errors\, disrupted communications\, and degraded weapon accuracy. Aircraft are drifting. Precision strikes are missing. Coordination is breaking down. \nIntelligence assesses a mobile GPS spoofing network operating in SIERRA is behind the disruption. As long as it remains active\, coalition forces are unable to use GPS ordinance. \nAt the same time\, signals intercepts confirm mobile communication units moving through YANKEE\, embedded within civilian infrastructure. These nodes are coordinating rebel defenses—keeping them connected\, responsive\, and dangerous. \n1.2 Area of operations\nHOTEL – Tripoli (Urban)\nThe city is a dense maze of concrete\, narrow streets\, and hidden firing positions. At its heart stands the ancient Citadel—now a fortified rebel stronghold bristling with anti-aircraft guns. \nSIERRA – Eastern Highlands (Mountains)\nRugged terrain and limited visibility make this area ideal for concealment. Intelligence suggests the rebels are using the mountains to stage electronic warfare operations and coordinate resistance. \nYANKEE – Southeast of Tripoli (Mixed Rural/Urban)\nScattered villages and farmland conceal mobile command units embedded among civilians. Distinguishing friend from foe will be difficult—and mistakes will be costly. \n1.3 Time and weather\n* March 27 – 2011\n* 05:30 local time\n* Rain (7500′-11500′)\n* Wind (Bearing / kts)\n– GND: 43 / 8\n– 1600ft: 43 / 17\n– 6600ft: 247 / 14\n– 26000ft: 41 / 8\n* Temp: +17°C\n* FORCE QNH 2953 / 750 \n1.4 Air threats\nNone. The Lebanon air force were pretty much non-existent even at start of this campaign. By now\, all air and helicopter bases have been neutralized along with any aircrafts. \n1.5 Ground threats\nTechnicals are a common view around most settlements of northern Lebanon. At the citadel\, in the center of Tripoli\, we will find an array of 23mm and 57mm units.\nFurther south\, outside the small\, costal town of Chekka\, 190th Fighter Squadron is currently cleaning up AAA of the same kind. An SA-8 have been gecking us for days near the mountains in the east. \n1.6 Friendly forces\n190th Fighter Squadron (AI) are supporting ground offensives to the south. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nRebel forces are entrenched within civilian areas\, deliberately using the population and infrastructure as cover. All weapons employment must be deliberate and controlled—minimize civilian casualties and avoid unnecessary damage to infrastructure at all costs. \n2 MISSION\n3 EXECUTION\n3.1 Commander’s intent\n3.2 Packages\n3.3 Order of events\n3.4 Rules of engagement\nROE: C\nAs per SPINS \n3.5 Acceptable level of risk\nALR: MEDIUM\nAs per SPINS \n3.6 Flight tasking\n4 ADMINISTRATION AND LOGISTICS\n4.1 Airfield operations\nPrimary:\n* LARNACA\n* TCN: N/A\n* Active RWY 04 \nDivert:\n* Beirut Rafic Hariri\n* TCN: N/A\n* Active RWY 03 \nFARP:\n* On the beach south west of Tripoli\n* MRGS: 36S YD58791087 \n4.2 Carrier operations\nHMS Ocean (Operational for: Apache & Kiowa) \nAs per Carrier Ops SPINS\n \n4.3 Tankers\nARCO 5: 17000ft\nTEXACO 2: 15000ft \nAs per Aerial Refueling SOP \n5 COMMAND AND CONTROL\n5.1 Commander\n* Mission commander is STINGRAY\n* Mission commander deputy is TBD \n5.2 Frequencies\nAs per Comms SOP \n5.3 Authentication\nRAMROD: GRANDSLICE\nAs per Authentication SOP \n5.4 Freq flow (Airfield flights)\n7\, 9\, 3/5\, 7\nRemain on Tower (ch 7) during startup and departure.

I syd är F17 Kallinge totalförstört. Civila flygplatsen Sturup fick startbanan svårt skadad men en taxibana är alltjämt intakt\, liksom bränsleförråden.\nEn omfattande invasionsflotta lämnade Östtyska hamnar igår eftermiddag. Den kunde delvis bekämpas av attackflyg och kustartilleri men en fientlig landstigning i Trelleborg kunde inte förhindras. Ytterligare fartyg har siktats utanför Malmö i detta nu. Läget är kritiskt; om fienden etablerar ett stabilt fotfäste i Skåne så kommer mängden trupp han kan föra in att accelerera snabbt. \nEget luftvärn har i stort undkommit bekämpning och har varit framgångsrikt mot sovjetiska flygföretag som försökt understödja sina marktrupper. \n1.2 Motståndarens verksamhet\nBegränsade underrättelseuppgifter från Trelleborg indikerar att fienden landsatt åtminstone ett stridsvagnskompani (T-72)\, flera motoriserade skyttekompanier – möjligen en full bataljon – och enstaka luftvärnspjäser (ZSU-23\, SA-8 och möjligen SA-6). Ytterligare avlastning pågår från fartyg förtöjda i hamnen. Fienden har säkrat hamnområdet och vägarna norrut åtminstone till Anderslöv. Bedömningen är att fienden fokuserar på Sturup för att etablera egen luftbro. \nYtterligare en fientlig flottstyrka har nu anlänt utanför Malmö där de påbörjat förbekämpning av hamn- och varvsområdet. En landstigning bedöms vara mycket nära förestående. \nFientligt flyg har en stark närvaro över DDR och Östersjön men i frånvaro av luftherravälde lokalt kan de endast verka i mycket begränsad omfattning över Skåne\, särskilt i rådande väderlek. \n1.3 Vårt läge\nPansar och motoriserat skytte från P7 har etablerat en försvarslinje mellan Svedala och Skurup. Enstaka fientliga spaningstrupper har nedkämpats utanför Anderslöv.\nMalmö försvaras i nuläget främst av hemvärnsförband.\nVägbaser Revinge och Tågra är fortfarande aktiva. Ytterligare en vägbas har etablerats vid Landskrona.\nLuftförsvaret har förstärkts med ytterligare en RBS 77 öster om Landskrona. \n1.4 Terräng och Väder\nSkåne \n* 30 oktober 1981\n* 08:00 lokal tid\n* Mulet\, lokala regnskurar\n* Vind från 190 / 12 km/h (8 knop)\n* Temp +3°C\n* QNH 985 \n1.5 Civilläge\nIngen civil luft- eller sjöfart i stridszonen. Civila har i stor utsträckning trotsat den samordnade evakueringen för att istället fly i egna bilar. Vägnätet är därmed nästintill obrukbart. \n2 UPPGIFT\nStoppa fiendens framryckning från Trelleborg mot Sturup. Lokalisera och bekämpa redan landsatt trupp i och kring Trelleborg. \nBekämpa fientliga flottstyrkan utanför Malmö i syfte att förhindra eller fördröja landstigning. Förstärk och ge luftunderstöd till hemvärnsförbanden i Malmö. \n3 GENOMFÖRANDE\n3.1 Beslut i stort\nMålbild: Fiendens förmåga att landsätta trupp elimineras.

Orientering\n1.1 Läget i stort\nEfter händelserna i södra Sverige har situationen eskalerat till ett öppet angrepp. Sovjetunionen har inlett en fullskalig invasion av Sverige. Stora styrkor opererar från Kolahalvön och avancerar västerut.\nFinland har deklarerat neutralitet men tillåter sovjetisk transit\, vilket möjliggör ett snabbt tryck mot norra Sverige. \n1.2 Motståndarens verksamhet\nFienden bedöms inleda med strategiska flyganfall mot våra flygbaser och infrastruktur.\nEfter en initial attack förväntas fortsatt tryck mot luftförsvar\, vägbaser och möjligheter till ombasering. Specialförband har redan observerats i området.\nEtt försök till infiltration via grodmän har nyligen avvärjts vid Junkön\, vilket indikerar att ytterligare hot i skärgården är sannolika. \n1.3 Vårt läge\nSvenska flygstridskrafter är mobiliserade. Saab 37 Viggen används i både jakt- och attackroller\, benämnda JA37 respektive AJS37.\nExakta fiendeavsikter är oklara. Vår planering bygger därför på att snabbt kunna reagera på förändringar och skydda prioriterade områden.\nTransportflyg med Herkules ombaserar materiel till Boden där en svensk sambandscentral upprättas. Inga intrång i Norges luftrum är tillåtna.\nLystningsposten på Junkön är fortsatt operativ och utgör en central del av kustförsvaret. \n1.4 Terräng och väder\n* 29 oktober 1981\n* 10:00 lokal tid\n* Växlande molnighet\n* Vind från 180 / 2 sekundmeter (4 knop)\n* Temp -1°C\n* QNH 790 mmHg (1053 / 31.10) \n1.5 Civilläge\nCivila evakueringar pågår i de norra delarna av landet\, särskilt kring Kallax flygplats och Kiruna. Läget är instabilt och militära insatser ska möjliggöra fortsatt evakuering. \n2. Uppgift\nHålla svenskt luftrum.\nSäkra operationsområdet kring Kallax flygplats\, skydda och upprätthålla verksamheten vid Junkön samt möjliggöra fortsatt svensk ledning och logistik i området. \n3. Genomförande\n3.1 Beslut i stort\nOperationen genomförs med fokus på uthållighet och kontroll:\nUpprätthåll svenskt luftrum med JA37 och AJS37\nGenomför insatser mot identifierade hot\nSäkerställ kontinuerlig transport och ombasering med Herkules till Bodö\nParallellt:\nLuftbro etableras till Junkön med hkp3\nHelikopterförband opererar i skärgården för att säkra området \n3.2 Indelning\, Gruppering\, Uppgifter \n211. Spaningsflygdivisionen URBAN RÖD (AJS-37)\nStartar: Jokkmokk \nUppgift: Urban Röd startar omgående. Genomför spaning av fiendens framryckningar med tyngdpunkt på sjöområdet öster om Kallax.

Genomför omedelbar förflyttning av materiel från Kallax och Luleå till Bodø. \nDivisionen består av två flygplan. Ett flygplan startar från Kallax\, ett från Kiruna. Efter lastning genomförs flygning till Bodø för hämtning av sjöminor. Därefter flygning till Jokkmokk för klargöring. \nEfter genomförd lastning i Bodø ska divisionen omgruppera och genomföra gemensam flygning i rote från Bodø till Jokkmokk. Samordning sker i tid och rum enligt order från transportledningen. \nPå order genomförs minfällning i sjöområdet öster om Kallax. \nArméflygS (UH-1H / HKP 3)\nStartar: Boden helikopterbas\nUppgift: Hkp 3 och Hkp 6 underställs befälhavaren FYREN på Junkön.

Fulla stridsregler tillämpas enligt order från ÖB. \nAll främmande militär verksamhet inom svenskt territorium\, luftrum eller territorialvatten ska betraktas som fientlig. Vapenmakt får omedelbart tillgripas utan föregående varning. \nBekämpning får även ske utanför svenskt territorium mot mål som utgör direkt hot mot Sverige eller svenska enheter. \nEld öppnas på eget initiativ vid konstaterad fientlig handling eller överhängande hot. \nSamordning ska ske för att undvika vådabekämpning av egna eller allierade enheter. \n4 LOGISTIK\n4.1 Flygfält\nKallax\nStartbana 32 \nKiruna\nStartbana 21 \nVägbas Vidsel\nStartriktning 11 \nVägbas Jokkmokk\nStartriktning 14 \nBodö\nBana 07 \n5 LEDNING OCH SAMBAND\n5.1 Inriktning ledning\nLFC KOBRAN – Jaktledare Baconbomb\, MINK och Blichten \nFlygledning Kallinge\, Revinge och Tågra – THEHOFF \n5.2 Inriktning samband\n[103] 265.00 MHz KOBRAN 1\n[105] 254.00 MHz KOBRAN 2\n[106] 260.00 MHz SLINGAN\n[107] 270.00 MHz TORNET\n[110] 262.00 MHz KOBRAN 3 \nAlla rotar\, inklusive HKP har passning på slingan från uppstart\, anmäler redo och avvaktar startorder.

Individual aircrew will plan a route to the target (Batumi airbase) and back to base (Kutaisi). \nEach individual aircrew will be assigned a specific target at Batumi airbase. \nDue to mission organiser’s need to be able to deconflict planned routes by adjusting start times\, each individual aircrew will plan their routes based upon being compatible with a “Rolex time” to be determined\, as opposed to upon a specific time. E.g. “Dusty 4-2 will hit WP3 at Rolex +15”\, not “Dusty 4-2 will hit WP3 at 08:15 local time”. \n1.2 Area of operations\nW and SW of Kutaisi\, SW and NE of Batumi.

Kommendörkapten Karl Andersson spanar ut i diset från bryggan på vedettbåten Smyge. Tillsammans med en minimal besättning har han beordrats ut i Blekinge skärgård för att undersöka rapporter om en grundstött ubåt vid Torhamnaskär\, djupt inne i det militära skyddsområdet. Några svenska ubåtar finns inte i området\, och inga har heller anmält några incidenter. ”Slöseri med resurser” hinner han tänka innan håren i nacken ställer sig i givakt. Kikaren ljuger inte\, det är verkligen silhuetten av en ubåt han ser och i tornet en flagga. SOVJETISKA JÄVLA MARINENS flagga! \nDe närmaste timmarna ökar den svenska militära närvaron exponentiellt. Kustjägare placeras ut nära ubåten. Marinen slår en järnring kring Gåsefjärden och flygvapnet flyttar resurser söderut. Under eftermiddagen kommer oroväckande rapporter om en misstänkt sovjetisk flottstyrka som närmar sig svenskt territorialvatten. Statsminister Fälldin har gett ÖB en tydlig order: “Instruktionen gäller\, håll rent med allt du har”. \n1.2 Motståndarens verksamhet\nSignalspaning indikerar närvaro av en sovjetisk flottstyrka i Östersjön\, på kurs mot Blekinge. Sammansättning okänd. \nMiG-21 finns baserade i Baltikum och DDR. Ingen ökad aktivitet har noterats vid dessa baser.\nSovjetiska flottstyrkan kan ha helikoptrar av typ Mi-8 \nOkänd bemanning och beväpning ombord på den grundstötta ubåten. \n1.3 Vårt läge\nKustjägare baserade kring Torhamnaskär. \nAttack-\, Jakt- och Spaningsviggen samt Hkp 3\, 4 och 6 baserade på F17 Kallinge respektive utlokaliserade på vägbaser. TP84 från Såtenäs. \nKustbevakning samt 1:a Röjdykardivisionen med minsvepare i farvattnet söder om grundstötningsplatsen. \nRBS 77 (Hawk) täcker det skånska luftrummet. \n1.4 Terräng och Väder\nSkåne\, Blekinge och Östersjön \n* 28 oktober 1981\n* 14:00 lokal tid\n* Växlande molnighet\n* Vind från 290 / 4 sekundmeter (8 knop)\n* Temp +6°C\n* QNH 1013 \n1.5 Civilläge\nCivila fartyg trafikerar östersjön. Civil luftfart kan förekomma över danskt och tyskt luftrum. \n2 UPPGIFT\nLokalisera den sovjetiska flottstyrkan. Fotografera och samla SIGINT. Om skepp eller flygfarkoster kränker svenskt territorialvatten ska de mötas i enlighet med IKFN (se 3.3). \n3 GENOMFÖRANDE\n3.1 Beslut i stort\nMålbild: Uppgiften är löst när sovjetiska flottstyrkan identifierats och svenskt territorialvatten inte kränkts. \nGenomförandeidé:\nInledningsvis går två rotar SH-37 (Qvintus Blå) upp för att spana. En rote JA-37 (Martin Blå) håller jaktskydd över Skåne. Två rotar AJS-37 (Filip Röd) intar högsta beredskap. \nHkp fortsätter transportera in trupp till området kring Torhamnaskär samt spanar av närområdet kring U-137. \nDärefter finns AJS-37 startberedda med Rb04 om fienden måste avvisas med vapeninsats. \nSlutligen finns möjlighet att fälla sjöminor från TP84. Marinen har genomfört prov med en avancerad sjömina från västtyska Rheinmetall. En begränsad leverans står klar i Hamburg och skall lastas omgående. \n3.2 Indelning\, Gruppering\, Uppgifter\n \n172.

Due to lacking prior preparation and logistics the intervention bogged down\, and US forces (one infantry division) stationed in the region has assisted Turkish forces in stabilising the line. Brigade is currently stretched thin ahead of an anticipated Syrian counterattack\, and rotary wing assets are planned to advance ahead of the brigade’s front and conduct a spoiling attack to break up the Syrian armoured thrust ahead of the counterattack being initiated. \n1.2 Area of operations\nSE of ALEPPO (SYRIA) in MGRS zones CV88-DV24 and DV18-DV46. The ground is mostly flat desert and villages. \n1.3 Time and weather\n* July 05 – 2017\n* 06:00 local time\n* Broken/overcast (3000′-7000′\, 17000′-22000′)\, broken (34000′)\n* Wind (Bearing / kts)\n– GND: 090 / 2\n– 1600ft: 091 / 4\n– 6600ft: 95 / 3\n– 26000ft: 071 / 4\n* Temp: +20°C\n* FORCE QNH 29.72 / 755 \n1.4 Air threats\nN/A \nSyrian regime airforce has been mostly spent as a result of the ongoing civil war\, and the remnants have not been active in the North since multiple shootdowns by Turkish fighters and air defences during the initial intervention \n1.5 Ground threats\nBMP-2\, T-72\, ZSU-23 Shilka\, AAA\, RPG\, small arms\, .50 cal\, MANPADS\, SA-6\, SA-8\, SA-9\, SA-13 \nEnemy forces are expected to be local Syrian regime forces holding the line to the brigade’s front\, and at least one regular armored brigade mustering for the expected counterattack.\nLocal forces in the AO are believed to consist mainly of dismounted infantry armed with small arms\, technicals and 23mm AAA emplacements.\nThe armored brigade is expected to be an understrength armored brigade consisting of C2 assets\, 3 tank battalions (20-30 T-72 MBTs per battalion)\, 1 motorized rifle battalions (30 BMP-1/2s)\, 1 MLRS battalion (10-15 BM-21 Grad)\, 1 reconnaissance company\, and limited air defences (ZSU-23-4 Shilka\, short range IR guided SAMs\, MANPADS).\nAdditionally\, local air defences have been known to consist of 1-2 SA-6 batteries and 3 SA-8s. All local air defences frequently relocate and transmit sparsely to avoid SEAD efforts. \nSA-6 located 50-60 km SE of FLOT. SA-8s typically 20-40 km SE of FLOT \n1.6 Friendly forces\nBrigade (HATCHET) holds the FLOT with light forces\, and will not be advancing. Some Division indiret fire assets have been subordinated to Brigade command (HATCHET 6) for this operation to supplement own indirect fire assets. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nNo civilian air traffic in the area. Mostly normal civilian day to day life continues in the AO. \n2 MISSION\nRotary winged assets will conduct a spoiling attack through movement to contact through the FLOT to break up the Syrian armored brigade ahead of the Brigade. \n3 EXECUTION\n3.1 Commander’s intent\nAttrite chosen parts of the Syrian armored brigade. Priority targets and destruction will be decided with Brigade. \n3.2 Packages\nThe mission contains 1 package\, callsign WAR PARTY. All flights are part of package WAR PARTY. Additionally\, one USAF F-16 flight (Venom 4) is on standby to provide SEAD support. \n3.3 Order of events\nThis operation is divided into four phases which will be conducted chronologically: J-SEAD to support WAR PARTY crossing the FLOT\, continued on call J-SEAD throughout the operation\, search for and destruction of Priority Targets\, RTB. \n1. Indirect fires will target known and suspected Syrian air defences and relevant defensive positions along the FLOT to enable WAR PARTY transiting. \n2. Brigade and Division indirect fire\, and F-16s (Venom 4) will be on station as planned in concert with Brigade and WAR PARTY to provide continued J-SEAD support throughout the mission. \n3. OH-58s and AH-64s of WAR PARTY will search for and engage elements of Syrian armored brigade\, with a focus on pre-determined Priority Targets. \n4.

It´s part of “plan B” to allow WP-forces to stretch fast and NATO to strike back hard when the strengths of the enemy is scattered and has the smell of victory. \nThis is where we are now\, the counter attack is imminent and the timing is perfect for more reasons than what is mentioned above:\na) The highly mobile air defense (SA-6\, 8) of WP forces are concentrated to the fallback line. Bigger ones (SA-10\, 11) are on the move\, re-deploying to new locations.\nb) WP air force are mostly grounded due to red-on-red incidents to a degree of 35%(!). They no longer dare to operate near areas where their own surface to air defense is active\, unless worth the high risk.\nc) Previous deep strikes (train junctions) during the initial day of the attack\, have left remaining forces in a temporary bad shape. \nThis is it. The moment of full-blued force in a spearheaded action to cut the red forces in half. \n1.2 Area of operations\nSouth (MRGS NE-ND) and East (MRGS NE-PE) of HAMBURG. The terrain is flat with patches of forests. \n1.3 Time and weather\nMarch 14 – 1987\n17:30 local time\nScattered (8000′)\nWind from:\n– GND: 240 / 6\n– 1600ft: 240 / 14\n– 6600ft: 289 / 4\n– 26000ft: 48 / 2\nTemp: +8°C\nFORCE QNH 30.31 / 770 / 1026.58 \n1.4 Air threats\nMiG-21\, MiG-23\, MiG-29 \nIf any air threats are to show themselves at all\, it would be most likely low-valued MiG-21´s. Enemy airfield in operation is Parchim. \n1.5 Ground threats\nInfantry\, BMP-2\, T-72\, SA-11\, SA-8\, SA-6\, AAA\, MANPADs \nAAA and MANPADs are likely tied to dug-in positions along BA7. Whereas SA-6 and SA-8 are spread out further west and east of the road\, but might still be within firing range.\nEnemy ground forces are also concentrated along the light dug-in positions (see map for locations and photos)\, however sporadic troop movements may happen on the road itself.\nFlanking enemies are expected to reinforce from the west. \n1.6 Friendly forces\nFriendly ground forces attacking from the south-west at the enemy dug-in positions\, along BA7. On demand\, a swarm of BQM-74´s can be sent in over the area to lure the SAM-sites to light up. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nCivilian traffic both in air and on the ground is non-existent. \n2 MISSION\n– Support NATO ground forces that are ready to attack along the Bundesautobahn 7\, BA7) leading to Hamburg. Their counter attack starts 18:15 local time. \n– SA-10´s on the move should be knocked out before their deployment (intel suggest they travel from East to West along Bundesautobahn 24\, BA24). Also\, quick is the trick\, before Red air force wakes up to interrupt. \n3 EXECUTION\n3.1 Endstate\nThe mission is successful when blue forces have reached the outskirts of Hamburg. \n3.2 Concept of Operations\nInitially one flight neutralizes SA-6 in NAI 1.\nThen one flight strikes first dug-in position.\nFinally one flight supports ground forces attack along BA7 and one flight strikes second and third dug-in positions. \nSimultaneously during all stages one flight conducts CAP and one flight search and destroys SA-8 in NAI 2 and NAI 3. \n3.3 Flight tasking\nARCTIC1 / JESTER1\n* Neutralizes SA-6 in NAI 1 ASAP NLT 141810\n* Locate SA-10 convoy\n– Be prepared to destroy SA-10 convoy \nELVIS5\n* Conducts CAP \nFENRIS6\n* Strike first dug-in position ToT 141814\n– Be prepared to strike second dug-in position\n– Be prepared to strike third dug-in position\n– Be prepared to destroy SA-10 convoy \nBLACKJACK4 / RAGE9\n* Neutralizes SA-8 in NAI 2\n– Be prepared to neutralizes SA-8 in NAI 3 \nHAWG8\n* Hold south of frontline until 141815\n* Support ground forces from 141815 \n—————————————————-\nF/A-18C role play F/A-18A\nA-10C role play A-10A\nAH-64D role play AH-64A\nF-16C role play F-16A\n—————————————————- \n \n3.4 Rules of engagement\nROE: C\nAs per SPINS\nAddition: TBD by MC \n3.5 Acceptable level of risk\nALR: MEDIUM\nAs per SPINS \n4 ADMINISTRATION AND LOGISTICS\n4.1 Airfield operations\n– Wunstorf\n– TCN: 116X\n– Active runway: 21\n– Departure via: W2\n– Approach via: V1\n– FARP Alpha: 32U ND 3369 5822\, 215ft \n4.2 Carrier operations\n– CASE I (Dep) / Case III (Arr)\n– BRC: 282\n– Departure time: ASAP\n– Departure sequence: As needed\n– RTB: According to STINGRAY / Marshal \nAs per Carrier Ops SPINS \n4.3 Tankers\nAs per Aerial Refueling SOP \n5 COMMAND AND CONTROL\n5.1 Commander\nMission commander is HITMAN3\nMission commander deputy is STINGRAY \n5.2 Frequencies\nAs per Comms SOP \n5.3 Authentication\nRAMROD: GRANDSLICE\nAs per Authentication SOP \n5.4 Freq flow (Airfield flights)\nTBD by MC\n7\, 9\, 3/5\, 7 Remain on Tower (ch 7) during startup and departure.

Air Force General E Scrooge sat by himself in his office. Well\, one would be hard pressed to call the shed an office but it was the most luxurious establishment on the premises. He was finished yelling\, or had at least taken a brief pause in yelling\, at his subordinates. “Christmas be damned\, they still need to sort their shit out” he muttered. Some bourbon had been consumed\, not much else available to brighten the day\, and cigar smoke filled the room. Planning was underway for the next Linebacker mission which would bring yet more B52-borne death to bear on the North Vietnamese infrastructure. “Humbug!” he shouted to himself. “It won’t do to just run into their SAM-traps again and again”. \nScrooge could have sworn there was no wind but still the cigar fumes started to swirl around the room. Faster and faster until they began to take shape. A familiar one at that. But no\, it couldn’t be… In front of him stood his predecessor\, General Marley\, who had died in the opening months of the war. Scrooge panicked\, ran to open a window hoping the wind would dispel the ghostly figure. On opening the window he was shocked to see snow outside! This would in itself have justified another outburst of derogatory comments aimed at some subordinate scumbag of an officer but somehow\, having a ghost in the room seemed more important at the time. A gust of cold wind did indeed find its way into the room but Marley just stood there. How miserable he looked. \n“Scrooge”\, he said\, voice much softer now than it was in life. “I am here to tell you what awaits. For years now I have wandered this land\, not finding rest. Not experiencing the slightest joy even as afterburners light the skies and the smell of napalm welcomes the morning.” \nMarley paused\, looking at Scrooge’s mission planning board. “Tonight you will be visited by three spirits. One of Christmas Past\, one of Christmas Present and one of Christmas Yet to Come. Listen to them\, and you may yet avoid sharing my fate.” \n1.2 Area of operations\nNorthern Norway and Sweden \n1.3 Time and weather\n* Dec 24th – 1972 (In-game mission date will differ from this\, in order to give us some daylight)\n* 11:00 local time\n* FEW/SCT 8/10\, SCT 23/24\n* Wind from 230 / 6\n* Temp -5°C\n* FORCE QNH 2992 / 1013 \n1.4 Air threats\nBf-109\, MiG-21\, MiG-29 \n1.5 Ground threats\nAAA\, SA-2\, SA-6 \n1.6 Friendly forces\nN/A\, we are the only blue forces in the AO. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nN/A \n2 MISSION\nGhost of Christmas Past: Protect Bergkompanie 2 and their supply convoy from Luftwaffe harassment as they advance on Alta. \nGhost of Christmas Present: Recon and sanitize the river route towards Enontekio\, recon Enontekio Toy Factory\, take over Enontekio air base \nGhost of Christmas Yet to Come: Destroy the uranium enrichment facility. \n3 EXECUTION\n3.1 Commander’s intent\nThis seems like a load of humbug! But all right\, let’s see where Marley’s spirits take us. \nThe three missions will run in parallell\, separated by geography. \n3.2 Packages\nThe mission contains 3 packages: \n* Christmas Past (P-51)\n* Christmas Present (UH-1\, C-130\, F-4)\n* Christmas Yet to Come (F/A-18\, F-16\, OH-58) \n3.3 Order of events\n* All flights are free to depart ASAP \n* For Package Christmas Yet to Come\, the TLAM strike has TOT 11.50.00\n* This is also push-time for Arctic1\n* And marks weapons free for Indy9 and Blackjack4 \n3.4 Rules of engagement\nROE: C\nAs per SPINS \n3.5 Acceptable level of risk\nALR: HIGH\nAs per SPINS \n3.6 Package tasking\nGhost of Christmas Past \nLiberation of Norway\, Alta-region\, 1944. Allied forces lead by the Norwegian 2nd Bergkompanie have pushed southwest towards Alta\, finally capturing the city\, but are now dangerously low on supplies. A freight convoy has been dispatched and will enter the Alta Fjord around noon. They have no warship escorts and must be protected from Luftwaffe air raids. \n  \nGhost of Christmas Present\nMarley’s Vietnam jungles have been distorted\, turned into some fairy tale winter wonderland. Regardless\, the NVA are still out there and INTEL says they’re hard at work building a factory near Enontekio to produce counterfeit toys. If successful\, next Christmas will be a nightmare as cheap knock-offs flood the American warehouses and end up under Genuine American Christmas Trees. \nThe river route towards Enontekio must be cleared of NVA combatants\, allowing ground forces to advance on the air base. Wild Weasels locate and destroy SA-2 site believed to be NE of Enontekio. Locate the Factory construction site and determine if there is indeed hostile activity. If so\, destroy everything there. Insert troops at Enontekio air base to take over the area. \n  \nGhost of Christmas Yet to Come\nIn the barren fjords\, the Enemy has secretly built his uranium enrichment facility. Our spies have now returned with indisputable evidence that it will be brought online any day now. The area is heavliy guarded with three major air bases – Andöya\, Evenes and Bardufoss – and a frightening number of SA-6 and SA-2 sites. An ingress route has been determined; it’s not guaranteed safe\, just the least unsafe option… To improve the odds\, a flight of Vipers will provide SEAD and Kiowas will clear the ingress route from AAA threats. Last\, but not least\, a massive volley of Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles will hit the hostile air bases. \n3.6 Flight tasking\nPackage CHRISTMAS PAST (Lead: DOLLAR11)\nDOLLAR1\n* Depart Banak\n* Check in with LONGBOW for air picture\n* Protect convoy entering the Alta Fjord \nLoadout: FL decides \nPackage CHRISTMAS PRESENT (Lead: MIGHTY11)\nMIGHTY1\n* Depart Kallax\n* Deploy FARP supplies for NITRO5\n* Determine NAUGHTY or NICE at Enontekio Humbug factory\n* Destroy factory if determined NAUGHTY\n* Land in hot LZ Enontekio\, deploy troops \nLoadout: FL decides \nWaypoints:\n1.

Our onboard sensors have visually located a possible location for the jamming\, which was later confirmed by our A-10 pilots who managed to pinpoint the signal to the same area. At the same time\, we have collected information from active air defenses in the area. The time to strike is now! \n1.2 Area of operations\nBeqaa Valley\, Lebanon\, and surrounding countries. \n1.3 Time and weather\n* September 10 – 2001\n* 15:00 local time\n* BKN 8/18/30\n* Wind from 250 / 7\n* FORCE QNH 2992 / 1013\n* Temp 26°C \n1.4 Air threats\nTwo Il-76 “Candid” and two Mi-8 “Hip” located at Rayak airfield.\nRrecords do not suggest any fighter or strike aircraft having landed at Rayak in recent time. \n1.5 Ground threats\nSA-10 “Grumble” located south of Rayak airfield. \nSeveral mobile SAM systems are active in the area:\nOne SA-22 “Greyhound” was located northwest of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-15 “Gauntlet” located 8NM east of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-15 “Gauntlet” located 9NM north of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-8 “Gecko” located 14NM southwest of Rayak airfield. \nExpect these systems to have regrouped by the time of our next attack. However\, the assessment is that their tasks remain the same. One SA-22 as point-defence at Rayak airfield\, one SA-15 point-defence at EWR\, one SA-15 north of airfield to deny any attack from the north towards Rayak area and SA-8s\, ZSU-23s as close protection to enemy troops in the area. Expect all infantry to carry MANPADS\, mainly SA-18s. \nMultiple ground units have been located along the roads towards Rayak. Company sized force defending SQUIRREL\, Platoon to Company sized force defending WOMBAT. The platoon sized force defending ELEPHANT was reduced in nubres by our attack helicotpers during this mornings operation. The assessment is that only a small outpost (36S YC 7497 3402\, 4654ft) remains. This will be our way in to Rayak. \n1.6 Friendly forces\nMainly air power: One Carrier Strike Group in the eastern part of the Mediterranean. Israeli forces at Ramat David. Russian forces at Bassel Al-Assad. Other nationalities joining in as we speak. Limited ground forces from Israel and Lebanon. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nCivilian air traffic is firmly grounded.

Our onboard sensors have visually located a possible location for the jamming\, which was later confirmed by our A-10 pilots who managed to pinpoint the signal to the same area. At the same time\, we have collected information from active air defenses in the area. The time to strike is now! \n1.2 Area of operations\nBeqaa Valley\, Lebanon\, and surrounding countries. \n1.3 Time and weather\n* September 10 – 2001\n* 15:00 local time\n* BKN 8/18/30\n* Wind from 250 / 7\n* FORCE QNH 2992 / 1013\n* Temp 26°C \n1.4 Air threats\nTwo Il-76 “Candid” and two Mi-8 “Hip” located at Rayak airfield.\nRrecords do not suggest any fighter or strike aircraft having landed at Rayak in recent time. \n1.5 Ground threats\nSA-10 “Grumble” located south of Rayak airfield. \nSeveral mobile SAM systems are active in the area:\nOne SA-22 “Greyhound” was located northwest of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-15 “Gauntlet” located 8NM east of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-15 “Gauntlet” located 9NM north of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-8 “Gecko” located 14NM southwest of Rayak airfield. \nExpect these systems to have regrouped by the time of our next attack. However\, the assessment is that their tasks remain the same. One SA-22 as point-defence at Rayak airfield\, one SA-15 point-defence at EWR\, one SA-15 north of airfield to deny any attack from the north towards Rayak area and SA-8s\, ZSU-23s as close protection to enemy troops in the area. Expect all infantry to carry MANPADS\, mainly SA-18s. \nMultiple ground units have been located along the roads towards Rayak. Company sized force defending SQUIRREL\, Platoon to Company sized force defending WOMBAT. The platoon sized force defending ELEPHANT was reduced in nubres by our attack helicotpers during this mornings operation. The assessment is that only a small outpost (36S YC 7497 3402\, 4654ft) remains. This will be our way in to Rayak. \n1.6 Friendly forces\nMainly air power: One Carrier Strike Group in the eastern part of the Mediterranean. Israeli forces at Ramat David. Russian forces at Bassel Al-Assad. Other nationalities joining in as we speak. Limited ground forces from Israel and Lebanon. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nCivilian air traffic is firmly grounded.

Until it’s suddenly not there anymore. No satellite television\, no global positioning systems\, no long range communications\, and perhaps most alarming for a nation state – no satellite intel. \nFor the first few minutes it was thought to be just a ‘glitch’. But nothing came back online. Panic followed. The realisation set in\, that right now someone could be launching a first strike and you wouldn’t know until the warheads started falling from the sky. Air Force One took off. Alert interceptors scrambled all over the continent. Strategic forces went to high alert and for a moment it seemed that someone might actually go ahead and pull THE trigger just for fear of being the last to unholster their gun. Then reports started to trickle in that this wasn’t just affecting us. It was everyone. The Russians\, The Chinese\, The Iranians… all the actors you would initially have thought to blame for something like this. An emergency meeting of the UN Security Council followed and for once there was agreement. We have to find out what happened. And put an end to it. Right the fuck now. \nIntelligence agencies soon determined the source to be a massive cyberattack aimed at the satellites themselves. Something that could only be pulled off from a seriously powerful uplink station. Following old SIGINT data\, the likely location came up as somewhere in the Beqaa Valley\, Lebanon. The Lebanese\, furious at the accusation\, went to see for themselves but none of their patrols returned to base. Just scattered reports of ground combat and pilots shouting in panic as they evaded SAMs. \nCENTCOM is now tasked with finding out what’s going on\, and ending it. Any and all resources in the area\, regardless of nationality\, will be pressed into service. If by nightfall the situation has not been resolved by conventional means\, only the nuclear option remains. One that would spell disaster for millions of civilians. \n1.2 Area of operations\nBeqaa Valley\, Lebanon\, and surrounding countries. \n1.3 Time and weather\n* September 10 – 2001\n* 06:00 local time (just after sunrise)\n* BKN 8/18/30\n* Wind from 250 / 7\n* FORCE QNH 2992 / 1013\n* Temp 21°C \n1.4 Air threats\nUnknown. There is at least one operational airfield in the area\, Rayak. However\, records do not suggest any fighter or strike aircraft having landed there in recent time. Only transport planes and helos. \n1.5 Ground threats\nUnknown. \nAs for surface-to-air threats\, ELINT indicates at least one late Soviet era search radar. Recon aircraft were engaged at ranges indicating “double digit” SAMs such as SA-10 or SA-11. \nLebanese ground forces were met with overwhelming firepower from tanks and artillery\, suggesting at least battalion strength. \n1.6 Friendly forces\nMainly air power: One Carrier Strike Group in the eastern part of the Mediterranean. Israeli forces at Ramat David. Russian forces at Bassel Al-Assad. Other nationalities joining in as we speak. Limited ground forces from Israel and Lebanon. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nCivilian air traffic is firmly grounded.

The Syrian Regime\, bolstered by Russian military support\, has been making rapid advances around Damascus.\nU.S. intelligence failed to anticipate just how effective the Russian Maskirovka tactics can be\, and now Syrian forces are pushing forward in a surprising pace\, threatening the capital. \nIn the north\, Al-Dumays airfield represents both as a logistic hub and potential staging ground for future airstrikes. Its neutralization is crucial to keeping the enemy at bay.\nMeanwhile\, in the south\, the A-10 pilot’s capture could send a signal of vulnerability of American forces in the region.

In the aftermath of the strike\, there were loud complaints from the usual suspects – Russia\, Cuba\, China and the Arab League. Iran’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei went so far as to describe the attack as “terrorism”\, threatening to punish those responsible for “attacks against Islam”. \nDetermined to show resolve\, president Clinton ordered the US 5th fleet to conduct a freedom of navigation exercise in the Persian Gulf. Two days later\, on August 22nd\, Carrier Strike Group 11 lead by USS Theodore Roosevelt transited the Strait of Hormuz at full battle stations. As CENTCOM expected\, the Iranians eventually stood down and the strike group proceeded into the Gulf\, staying just outside Iran’s internationally recognized  territorial waters. \nIt is now the early hours of August 23rd and CSG-11 will turn south\, its mission accomplished. Routine CAP is airborne and the USAF is still on standby in the Emirates. \n1.2 Area of operations\nPersian Gulf \n1.3 Time and weather\n* Aug 23 1998\n* 03:00 local time\n* SCT/BKN 18/20\n* Wind from 250 / 4\n* Temp 21°C\n* FORCE QNH 2992 / 1013 \n1.4 Air threats\nMiG-21\, MiG-29\, F-14A \nMiG-21 and MiG-29 based in Bandar Abbas\, Bandar Jask\, Qeshm\, Tunb and Lavan.

They are traveling from Spin Boldak (near the Pakistan border) and are expected to be moving northbound or northwest along primary or secondary routes. The Kiowa (BLACKJACK4) will act as the forward scout and designator. The Apaches (RAGE9) will be the primary strike platform.\n\nAir Defense Threat: Expect standard small arms and 1-2 MANPADS teams. CRITICAL: Intelligence also suggests the presence of an emplaced ZU-23-2 (Soviet twin 23mm AAA) protecting a choke point along the likely route. You must neutralize this threat to ensure the safety of your aircraft.\nRules of Engagement (ROE): Positive Identification (PID) is mandatory. Civilian traffic\, consisting of unescorted civilian vehicles\, is likely on the main roads. You must confirm the target as the 3 Technicals and 2 Cargo Trucks before engaging. Avoid engaging near civilian vehicles.\n\n\nObjectives:\n\nLocate and positively identify the HVT convoy using the Kiowa Warrior.\nDestroy the HVT convoy.\n\n\nMission Success: All five HVT vehicles destroyed\, and no civilian casualties.\nMission Failure: HVT convoy escapes\, or friendly aircraft are destroyed\, or any confirmed civilian casualties occur.\nWeather: Clear skies\, light winds from the west (5-10 knots).\nTime of Day: 05:15 Local (Sunrise) URL:https://masterarms.se/event/the-kandahar-chronicles-mission-1-operation-desert-serpent/ LOCATION:Afghanistan CATEGORIES:THT ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://masterarms.se/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/bfq_Epic_wide-angle_cinematic_shot_Two_formidable_AH-64_Apache__3029612b-df52-47a2-a5b3-267b78cd7100.png ORGANIZER;CN="BFQ":MAILTO:bjornqvarfordt@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20251002T193000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20251002T230000 DTSTAMP:20260610T024332 CREATED:20250609T104637Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251002T165620Z UID:11610-1759433400-1759446000@masterarms.se SUMMARY:Able Archer II DESCRIPTION:RSVP: 25 10 02 – 19:30 (please sign-up asap though\, as it makes things easier to plan)\nActivity: Mission – CAP\, Escort\, Strike\, SEAD\nTheatre: Cold War Germany\nModules: F/A-18A\, F-14A\, F-16A\, F4 Phantom II\, UH-1H\, AJ-37 Viggen\nPrerequisites: None\n \n\n LINEUP\n F/A-18C CAP\nARCTIC11 (400): Kaninmat\nARCTIC12 (401): Leka\nARCTIC13 (402):\nARCTIC14 (403): \nF/A-18C CAP\nBENDER21 (404): JackFlash\nBENDER22 (405): Makanan\nBENDER23 (406):\nBENDER24 (407): \nF-14B CAP\nELVIS51 (100): WeX / Deadgun\nELVIS52 (101): Deadlift / Hofftari\nELVIS53 (102):\nELVIS54 (103): \nAJS 37 Escort / Anti-ship strike\nFENRIS61: Goofy\nFENRIS62: CoNa\nFENRIS63:\nFENRIS64: \nAJS 37 Escort / Anti-ship strike\nGRIM71: Frefeh\nGRIM72: Hagman\nGRIM73:\nGRIM74: \nF-16C Strike\nINDY91: Wahlkvist\nINDY92: Undefined\nINDY93: McSurfy\nINDY94: Pahi \nF-16C Strike\nJESTER11:\nJESTER12:\nJESTER13:\nJESTER14: \nF-4 Phantom II SEAD\nBANSHEE21: SenorHombre / Moldy\nBANSHEE22: Tony / Troll\nBANSHEE23:\nBANSHEE24: \nUH-1H Transport\nNITRO51: Ironsavior / Kingtiger / Spaz\nNITRO52: BFQ / Asken\nNITRO53:\nNITRO54: \nAWACS\nSTINGRAY / STRIL: Mink\nSTINGRAY / GAMEMASTER: Blichten\nSTINGRAY: Urist \nAirport\nGround: Nikemo\nTower: Nikemo \nCarrier\nMarshal: (Bankler)\nTower: (Bankler)\nLSO: (Bankler)\n \n1 SITUATION\n1.1 Overview\nDecades of cold war have now suddenly turned into a hot one\, with shots exchanged between NATO and Warszaw Pact aircraft and multiple casualties on each side. The red side was already at high alert due to our ongoing exercise – ABLE ARCHER 83 – and can be expected to roll across the border any minute now.  \n1.2 Area of operations\nWest Germany\, Denmark\, Baltic Sea \n1.3 Time and weather\n* Sept 07 – 1983\n* 09:15 local time\n* SCT 8-10\n* Wind from 270 / 7 kts\n* Temp 23° C\n* FORCE QNH 3051 \n1.4 Air threats\nMiG-21\, MiG-23\, MiG-29 \n1.5 Ground threats\nEast Germany is littered with SAM sites\, mainly SA-2 and SA-3. Closer to the ground expect MANPADS and ZSU-23. \n1.6 Friendly forces\nWest German air defenses have now been brought up to full alert status. Several HAWK batteries are situated along the border. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nCivilian air traffic is suspended. \n2 MISSION\nExecute pre-planned SEAD and STRIKE missions against Warszaw pact forces before they cross the border. \nEliminate the Soviet naval threat in the Baltic. \n3 EXECUTION\n3.1 Commander’s intent\nWarszaw Pact mechanized units are stationed in close proximity to the border. Once they are on the move\, we will be severely outnumbered. As per pre-war planning we will strike them while they are still on their side of the border. Doing so will require a daring SEAD mission by the Wild Weasels. \nDuring exercise ABLE ARCHER\, several high-ranking officers were in bunkers close to the border. We will need to evacuate them before they are hit by air strikes and/or steamrolled by armor. \nThe Carrier Air Wing will provide CAP. \nSweden was drawn into the conflict and Viggens have found themselves stationed in Lübeck. Their mission will be to sink the Soviet naval forces in the Baltic but doing so requires ordnance that is not available in NATO stores. A C-130 transport from Sweden will deliver RBS04 to Hamburg (Finkenwerder). The transport must be met over Denmark and escorted to Hamburg. Once there\, the Viggens will also land to rearm for their anti-ship mission. \n3.2 Packages\nThe mission consists of three packages. \nPackage ARCHER (Elvis5\, Arctic1 and Bender2) provides CAP. Package lead is ELVIS51. \nPackage MACE (Banshee2\, Jester1 and Indy9) will conduct SEAD and STRIKE on Warszaw Pact forces still east of the border. \nPackage ULV (Fenris6 and Grim7) will escort the C-130 transport to Hamburg and then conduct anti-ship strikes in the Baltic. \nNot part of package is NITRO5\, tasked with VIP evacuation \n3.3 Order of events\nARCHER departs ASAP to establish CAP over the AO. \nMACE departs ASAP\, assembles at designated IP and proceeds on STINGRAY’s orders \nULV departs ASAP on their escort mission \nNITRO5 departure depending on air picture \n3.4 Rules of engagement\nROE: C\nAs per SPINS \n3.5 Acceptable level of risk\nALR: HIGH\nAs per SPINS \n3.6 Flight tasking\nPackage ARCHER (Lead: ELVIS51)\nELVIS5 \n* Depart Mother\n* Check in with STINGRAY to receive CAP instructions\n* Refuel at ARCO1 or 5 as needed\n* RTB on order from STINGRAY \nWaypoints:\nWP1: CAP NORTH Lat Long Standard: N 54°05’08” E 9°51’23”\nWP2: CAP MID Lat Long Standard: N 53°12’03” E 10°06’50”\nWP3: CAP SOUTH Lat Long Standard: N 52°05’17” E 10°08’10” \nARCTIC1 \n* Depart Mother\n* Check in with STINGRAY to receive CAP instructions\n* Refuel at ARCO1 or 5 as needed\n* RTB on order from STINGRAY \nLoadout: FL decides (within limits of historic restrictions) \nWaypoints:\n1.

One that starts with conventional weapons but potentially ends in a nuclear holocaust. While it is mainly a command-level exercise\, there will also be elements simulating the conflict on the tactical level\, providing the leadership with some measure of realistic feedback to their decisions. \n1.2 Area of operations\nWest Germany \n1.3 Time and weather\n* Sept 07 – 1983\n* 06:30 local time\n* SCT 8-10\n* Wind from 270 / 7 kts\n* Temp 23° C\n* FORCE QNH 3051 \n1.4 Air threats\nOn this side of the Iron Curtain no threats are expected. Stray to the other side and you will find the entire arsenal at the Warszaw Pact’s disposal. \n1.5 Ground threats\nOn this side of the Iron Curtain no threats are expected. Stray to the other side and you will find the entire arsenal at the Warszaw Pact’s disposal. \n1.6 Friendly forces\nN/A\, we are the only blue forces in the exercise area \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nCivilian air traffic is suspended over the exercise area but otherwise unrestricted \n2 MISSION\nDay ONE of Able Archer ’83. The briefing for the political and military leaders that participate in this exercise describes a short period of increased tensions between Nato and the Warszaw Pact\, after which hostilities suddenly erupt across the German border. Hostile fighters engage the NATO CAP while attack aircraft focus on airfields and SAM-sites. The military leadership will initially focus their training on execution of pre-planned defensive missions while the political leadership have to consider how they migt protect the civilian population as well as how attempts could be made to find diplomatic solutions to the conflict before it escalates out of control. \nThe Carrier Battle Group is participating in the exercise but only at command level. The Air Wing conducts routine CAP. \nViggens at Kallinge are the routine incident alert fighters. It is expected that the Warzsaw pact will conduct aerial and/or naval intelligence gathering during the ongoing NATO exercise. If they venture into the Baltic sea we will intercept them for VID and “wave the flag”. \n3 EXECUTION\n3.1 Commander’s intent\nPackages LONGBOW and PICKAXE conduct exercises as detailed below. NOTE! All pilots must be familiar with the range regulations (3.4.1). \nCSAR resources conduct separate exercises but are on stand-by in case their services are needed. \nThe Carrier Air Group is not participating in the exercise. Their mission is the same as always – keep the Carrier Battle Group safe. \nViggens are the routine alert interceptors at F17 Kallinge. \n3.2 Packages\nThe mission contains 2 packages: LONGBOW and PICKAXE (consisting of F/A-18\, F-16\, and F4).\n \nLONGBOW (Arctic1 and Banshee2) is the A2A component of the exercise. Blue forces will set up CAP and maintain EMCON conditions. Redfor will simulate a low-level incursion from the east\, following expected Soviet doctrine. \nPICKAXE (Bender2\, Jester1 and Indy9) simulates a strike by Redfor (Jester and Indy) on a blue airfield. Bluefor (Bender) is the QRF at Gutersloh air base. \n3.3 Order of events\nLONGBOW (blue and red) and PICKAXE (red) depart Ramstein and assemble at designated IP:s. Pickaxe (blue) starts up at Gutersloh\, awaiting STINGRAY’s orders. \n“Defeated” aircraft return to IP in anticipation of either a new round of exercise or RTB\, depending on time and fuel constraints. \n3.4 Rules of engagement\nROE: A\nAs per SPINS \n3.4.1 Range regulations\n\nOnly CAPTIVE missiles are used. (Live ordnance loaded as needed for systems to function in DCS but for all intents and purposes these missiles are considered inert.) MASTER ARM shall be set to SIMULATION or OFF\, depending on aircraft type\, at all times. Guns shall be UNLOADED.\nSupersonic flight is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN\nNo electronic warfare\, including Self-protection jammers\n\nAltitude separation \n\n\n\nBLUE forces own the “6-10” altitude blocks 6000-10000\, 16000-20000 and 26000-30000\nRED forces own the “1-5” altitude blocks 0-5000\, 11000-15000 and 21000-25000\nPassing through the opposing side’s altitude block may be requested by FL and authorized by STINGRAY if deconfliction is certain.\nAn individual pilot who wants to violate the other side’s altitude block without explicit authorization from STINGRAY may only do so if the following conditions are met:\n\nFighters from opposing sides have merged\nPilot intends to maneuver for a “kill”\nPilot has situational awareness of both BLUE and RED air in his immediate vicinity\n\n\n\n\n\nCalling shots \n\n\n\nShots may only be called if the aggressor has radar lock on his opponent and is within indicated Rmax of the selected weapon. Good sportsmanship is expected at all times. Cheaters get latrine duty.\nAggressor calls on the common frequency: [Callsign] [Fox1 / Fox2 / Guns guns guns] on [aircraft type] my [o’clock\, high/low\, in level flight / in a right- / left hand turn]\nA defeated aircraft\, recognizing it was the target\, will rock its wings to acknowledge the “kill” and then safely return to IP. If needed\, STINGRAY will advise the target aircraft that it is hit and it will then follow the procedure described above.\n\n\n\n3.5 Acceptable level of risk\nALR: LOW\nAs per SPINS \n3.6 Flight tasking\nPackage LONGBOW (Lead: ARCTIC11)\nARCTIC1 \nBLUFOR – CAP in exercise area ABLE SKY \n* Depart Ramstein\n* Hold at IP CHARLIE (WP3) at 28000’\n* Radars off until you have received vectors to aggressors (or ordered LIGHTS ON by STINGRAY)\n* Expect REDFOR ingress from the east\, defeat “hostiles” in BVR and/or dogfight\n* Refuel at ARCO5 as needed\n* RTB on order from STINGRAY \nLoadout: AIM-7M (considered captive)\, AIM-9M (considered captive) \nWaypoints:\n1.
