Connect with us here: https://www.skywardfm.com/syria-coin-2024 MISSION OVERVIEW This mission was designed as a lower-intensity operation to allow the effective use of lower-performance aircraft such as the A-29B Super Tucano, OV-10 Bronco, and less advanced attack helicopters such as the Hind.   Likewise, the mission is centered around these aircraft - though faster and more capable aircraft are available, these are stationed in airbases further away from the operational areas. This is done to encourage the use of low-performance aircraft while still allowing those who desire to play high-performance aircraft to enjoy this mission. ​ ​Players may land and refuel in any airfield not under enemy control. However, only those airfields which have friendly forces in them can be used as CTLD troop pickup zones.   Additionally, airbases listed as capture objectives on the kneeboard have spawn slots available once captured, however these are limited to lower-performance aircraft.  ​ Note this mission uses CTLD for JTAC lasing. Players should avoid using the standard DCS radio menu for JTACs. FEATURES Low intensity, Ground Attack-focused mission.   Fog of War is enabled. Identifying and attacking enemies will be more complex.   An opportunity for propeller-driven aircraft, light attackers and helicopters to shine.   Defend coalition outposts surrounded by insurgent forces.   Attack technical convoys, insurgent outposts, and elusive mobile mortar teams.   Change the flow of battle by striking ammunition depots and other strategic targets.   Anti-aircraft threats are limited, but watch out for MANPADS!   Player-controllable ground vehicles and CTLD allow players with Combined Arms to conduct air assault and JTAC operations.   Detailed mission background, briefing slides and kneeboards.
