Each team has a primary Strike target marked on the F10 map, photos available in your kneeboard.

In addition you can find a wide variety of targets by actually going out and flying recon. There are truck parks, convoys, armored vehicles, bunkers. Some heavily defended, some not.

 

Read the Blue and Red briefings for more info. Blue team also has CAS missions tasked via radios, Red team can intercept enemy transport aircraft.

Ping Limits

 

Any chance we can raise the ping limits from 350 to 450? Some of our guys are having trouble getting into the server and once in, we seem to be experiencing some strange rubber banding effects.

 

Not sure if this effect is linked to the ping limits, but we didn't have this issue before the ping limits were set?

Korea! 1952 - 01 December 2018

 

We had a great flight last night and I just wanted to share that with any of you looking to join into the action. We fly Saturday nights at 2400 hours Zulu. Here's the action from last night that I posted to 401/450 Squadrons' forum ops log today.

 

Narrative

Sortie #1

Seven pilots lined up on the apron ready for a multi-task mission against Red forces at Taupse and Maykop A/F. White Flight took off from K-55 at 5:17:44 local time followed immediately by Green Flight at 5:17:55 hours. Squadron cohesion continues to improve as each flight cleared the runway and took up their sortie heading of 300 degrees in tight, well spaced formations. With minimal MiG activity being reported throughout the region, C/S Dropkick were tasked to hit the key port facilities at Taupse to choke off the flow of supplies to Maykop A/F. Armed with sixteen HVARs each, C/S Dropkick flew unmolested up the coast and rolled in to attack the Taupse docks and surrounding power plants at 5:34:37 hours. All pilots released their ordnance onto assigned targets and turned onto their return heading of 120 degrees. Rejoin was completed at 25,000' with all A/C landing safely at K-55 by 6:01:42 hours local.

 

Sortie #2

White and Green Flights completed re-fuel and re-arming with 120 gal drop tanks and M-64 GP bombs to deliver a second blow against Taupse harbour. Taking off at 6:19:40 and 6:19:50 respectively, C/S Dropkick proceeded back onto their original heading of 300 degrees stepped in flights of 20,000' and 15,000' inbound to the target area. White Flight rolled in first at 6:39:53 hours local followed by Green Flight one minute later. Generally speaking this sortie achieved good results with 10 x M-64 bombs impacting into the target area. Both flights then proceeded onto 060 degrees and accomplished rejoin very effectively. As White and Green Flights proceeded at 35,000' Green Lead tallied a lone MiG-15 on patrol SE of Maykop A/F. The MiG pilot turned into the flight of Sabres and merged head-on with Green Lead then turned aggressively against Green Two and Green Four. White Flight took a brief opportunity to turn against the MiG but Green Flight quickly regained the advantage and in the dog-fight that ensured, Green Three engaged and destroyed the MiG. C/S Dropkick reformed onto heading 150 to RTB with all A/C returning safety to K-55 by 7:19:51 hours local time.

 

Sortie #3

Seven pilots prepared their aircraft for further operations against a growing number of MiG-15s now reported to have scrambled from Maykop A/F. Whereas minimal opposition was put up against Dropkick during the initial two sorties (i.e. 1 x MiG-15 recon), the MiG response now was significant and likely in response to the loss of their patrol aircraft.

 

At 7:34:57 White Flight lifted off from K-55 with Green Flight hot on their heels. Expecting immediate resistance, flight lead ordered Dropkick to climb in a right hand circuit over K-55 and upon reaching 20,000' and with no reports of inbound bogies, White and Green Flights proceeded on heading 335 degrees to intercept the MiG flight forming up near Maykop A/F. White Flight took the lead to initiate contact with the MiG-15s while Green Flight followed at a discrete distance to counter any initial moves made against White Flight. The MiG flight leader must have tallied Dropkick at about the same time that White and Green Leaders tallied them, as at 7:53:30 he dispatched MiG#1 and MiG#2 in a pincers against White Flight.

 

At 7:55:00 MiG#1 moved aggressively into pursuit of White Flight while MiG#2 attacked head-on.

 

At 7:55:37 hours, as MiG Leader (MiG#5) cruised at 41,000' on a heading of 185 degrees and five miles north of White Flight (who were then at 35,000' heading 350 degrees), he ordered MiG#3 and MiG#4 (who were still twelve miles to the NE), to climb from 28,000' and 15,000' respectively against the right flank of Green Flight, then at 38,000' and closing on MiG#1. MiG#6 seemed to have been assigned to cruise below con at 17,000' and was at this time some distance North and heading southward toward the fight. Now Dropkick's tactics began to pay off as MiG#1 was forced into a hard right turn behind White Flight, who just merged with MiG#2 by executing a right turn into his attack.

 

At 7:55:48 hours MiG#3 and MiG#4 struggled to climb into the fight having now lost too much energy to manoeuvre against Green Flight. For the time being, these two MiGs are neutralized and forced to dive away.

 

At 7:56:16, White Fight reversed left climbing to 39,000' forcing MiG#2 to overshoot and pass below at 36,000'. The reversal of White Flight also threw off the attack by MiG#1 who countered by climbing to 40,000' while turning hard left in pursuit of White Flight. Green Flight continued to close with MiG#1. By 7:57:05 hours MiG#1, now down to 38,000', sees the danger from Green Flight (also at 38,000') to his rear and breaks off his pursuit of White Flight to enter into a high-speed left turn. White Flight is then free to reverse left against MiG#2 as he continues his left bank in an attempt to engage Green Flight. This causes MiGs#1 and #2 to separate thereby allowing Green and White to engage these MiG's with a numerical advantage.

 

At 7:57:22 MiG#2 is caught in a bracket between White Two out front, and White Four at his six. As MiG#2 turns against White Two at 38,000', White Lead opens his turn to pick up speed while allowing White Two and MiG#2 to turn inside his turn. White Lead now takes up the pursuit of MiG#2. As the fight enters a large left hand pursuit, Green Lead and then Green Two alternately fire bursts against MiG#1. Green Flight are closely packed together and as MiG#1 breaks hard left, Green Lead, Two and Four miss the turn and extend some distance North of the main engagement area. However, at 7:58:14 Green Three breaks away from the rest of Green Flight in hot pursuit of MiG#1 to continue the fight. Now as each fight devolves into one versus one battles, Green Lead calls for a rejoin on a heading of 150 degrees. Since neither side has scored any hits up to this point, each pilot rejoins as they can and soon all of the Sabres and many of the MiGs are making their way along that same heading.

 

As White Flight attempts to rejoin and climb back to altitude, White Lead and White Four tally a MiG-15 directly to their front. White Lead advises White Two as to their altitude and heading while White Four prepares to support White Lead's initial attack from astern. Closing to within 1,800' White Lead fires a long burst forcing MiG#1 to take evasive action in a hard turn to the right. Just at about the same time, Green Flight re-engages with two or three MiGs and enter into another confusing turning fight. White Lead pursues MiG#1 in a series of hard turns while White Four provides cover all the while fending off attempts from MiG#4 to get into the fight. White Lead fires multiple bursts with no apparent effect but after several intense minutes the fight descends low over Bullseye where MiG#1 successfully manages to escape. White Lead breaks off and extends away once visual contact is lost but White Four now comes under attack from MiG#4. White Lead reverses onto an intercept heading based upon the headings being provided by White Four, but in the end no further contact is made and White Four succeeds in eluding his attacker. Soon thereafter Green Flight breaks free, rejoins and then head back into the fray against the remaining MiGs. White Flight RTB low on fuel and Winchester on ammo (White Four) and eventually Green Flight returns with all ships accounted for.

 

Great job by all pilots involved and a hell of a lot of fun.

 

Cheers

MiG Alley - Saturday 2400 Zulu

 

Hey Great Job Grizzly and Metzger and to the other four MiG pilots! This was by far the best contest we've had to date, and make no mistake, we love the challenges and are continuing to learn ourselves. The reason that I posted our ops log here is that for the first time I could detect a series of tactics being played out between both sides and that's what made this such a classic engagement. Also being evenly matched between MiG-15/F-86 both sides enjoyed a great series of engagements while everyone survived (sorry about sortie #2).

 

Our guys were really pumped after that third sortie and everyone logged off that night looking forward to next week, so here's hoping that enough interest exists to make it a regular event.

 

We fly two full four ship flights in the Korea! 1952 server at 2400 hours Zulu on Saturday's and we fly the same time on Thursday nights as well, so if you want additional practice, jump in and look us up.

 

Hopefully we'll see you and your mates again on Saturday!!

 

Cheers

I am not a MiG pilot, quite the opposite :)

Will try to join with a few buddies next Saturday and see with your guys how many Sabers we can have. May be we can plan a big invasion on RED base, split on a few cap/strike packages and waste the reds :)

 

If you haven't already, join KOREA!1952 discord, link is on the 1st page.

Static versus dynamic weather - stuttering

 

Hi SeaQuark,

 

Thanks for updating the server. All of us from 77 (F) Sqn were happy to get back onto the server last night and we continue to fly our regular events on Saturdays at 2400 Zulu. We did notice some bad stuttering last night, which seems to be a problem with the .26479 release of open beta. I've just read through the bug reports and it seems that this version is presenting some problems with crashes and flickering black screens.

 

While those issues are for the developers to address, I stumbled onto a post that might be of interest to you related to fps performance stemming from static versus dynamic weather settings. I know for myself that the instance of stutter is most pronounced in the vicinity of Sukhumi and Gudauta which typically has a layer of cloud cover, and then improves as we fly inland. In the post below, tests were carried out which demonstrate the instances of stutter/lower fps when using static weather, versus the complete absence of stutter when dynamic weather has been enabled.

 

Not sure if this will be of use to you, but just wanted to bring it to your attention.

Hey Speed, if you shoot me a message on Discord (39th_Bloke in the Korea server) we can discuss getting the 39th up at the same time.

We've been shaking the rust off recently and it'd be cracking to get the squadron sorties going once more!

Korea! 1952 - 77 (F) Squadron Operations 9 February 2019

 

The guys from 77 (F) Sqn enjoyed another session of great A2A action this past Saturday and many thanks to the MiG drivers who put up thirteen sorties between them. We enjoyed these flights especially due to the MiG pilots employment of effective flight/element tactics. Well done!

 

We had a similar night of action a couple of weeks ago and I took the opportunity then to write up a detailed account of it based on a Tacview track I created from the replay. Here's a description of that review from Saturday the 9th of Feb (Sunday 10th Feb for those of you in Europe and Australia). This account is far more detailed than usual, but it was such a great encounter it deserved to be recorded in the 401/450 Squadron op log.

Narrative (all times are server local)

 

Sortie #1

C/S Dropkick was tasked to destroy a vehicle control point at MGR FJ 55. Six Sabres rolled down runway 1 2 at K-55 wheels up at 9:45:23 hours local time. With White Flight leading and Green Flight close behind, the two three-ship flights banked away from K-55 is a tight, well disciplined formation. Dropkick picked up the outbound heading of 350 degrees, completed Fence In and settled in for the short sortie to the target area. At 9:56:55 hrs local, White Lead ordered echelon right to set up for initial attack run. As White rolled onto the target from the North, Green Flight crossed left above White to set up cover over the objective. At 9:59:00 hrs, White Flight engaged T1 with rockets destroying the entire section of six vehicles including four heavy cargo trucks and two mobile AAA units. As White Flight pulled up and to port to set up for a gun run, Green Flight rolled in from the South to engage the buildings designated T3, T4 and T5 scoring hits against and destroying all three targets. White Flight then mounted a single gun run along the tree line adjacent to the road while Green Flight engaged the two bunkers designated T2 scoring hits, but causing no damage. At 10:04:00 hours White Lead a White Four flew a low altitude run down the valley in order to capture a few BDA photos. Meanwhile, White Three broke formation to fly further down the valley where he attempted to engage an AAA unit from low altitude. Unfortunately, White Three was shot down by a ZU 23-2 unit. No chute was observed. The remainder of C/S Dropkick rejoined on the back-bearing to RTB at K-55 at 10:12:15.

 

Sortie #2

It was 10:40:15 hrs by the time C/S Dropkick took off again for their second sortie. Green Flight welcomed a guest pilot "Infidel" who lent his skill and experience to Green Flight. This second sortie was based on Mission Sheet #7 CAP 3. White Flight experienced a string of technical glitches that delayed their take-off for ten minutes. Green Flight however took off and climbed toward 39,000' on an initial heading of 360 degrees, turning onto 270 degrees to set up as high cover. White Flight finally rolled off the end of runway 1 2 at 10:53:15.

 

White Flight banked away from K-55 to pick up their outbound heading of 330 degrees continuing their climb-out to CAP cruise altitude. Within minutes of overflying the lower foothills North of K-55, White Three called out contrails at 11 o'clock high. White Lead tallied the four ships of Green Flight but also spotted a lone bogie approaching low on an intercept course. As Green Flight had just completed their first circuit past Maykop, and had just turned toward the coast and were in the process of banking left again onto 360 degrees, they had not tallied this aircraft. The bogie approached along 150 degrees or 11 o'clock to Green, but even though he was coming fast at 35,000', no one in Green had yet tallied this threat. Suffering comms problems again, White Lead relayed through White Four, who contacted and warned Green Lead of the bogie. At 11:05:32, MiG#1 (Coosjoaquin) engaged Green Four who was lagging some distance behind. In that same instant, Green One and Two executed a hard bank to starboard to engage MiG#1. MiG#1 closed rapidly on Green Four but overshot his target without scoring any hits so he extended in a climbing left bank to 38,000' while Green One and Two extended a short distance South. Green Two pulled high right as Green One completed his turn to engage MiG#1 in a head on pass. In exchanging bursts, neither pilot registered any hits but just beyond the merge, MiG#1 fired a snap shot that narrowly missed Green Two crossing his front. MiG#1 then climbed high right to separate from Green One who climbed high left.

 

At 11:07:48 hrs MiG#1 skillfully reversed to engage Green Two then descending through 32,000' in a right bank. Green Two spotted the threat and snap rolled his Sabre left to break contact with MiG#1 attacking from behind. This allowed Green Three to slip into firing range and threaten MiG#1 but this pilot used his considerable flying skills to instantly reverse left and dive under Green Three. As the action continued, Green Four completed RTB at K-55. Meanwhile, Green Two re-engaged MiG#1 with a short burst that missed. Three seconds later Green One fired three well placed bursts but MiG#1 again expertly rolled inverted to dive away from danger. This caused Green One to overshoot so he immediately pulled up and to the right to make way for Green Two and Three who now took up the pursuit.

 

The MiG pilot evaded this new threat by pulling hard right and using maximum thrust to climb away but Green Three managed to squeeze off a short burst that narrowly passed by the cockpit of the jinking MiG-15. This action set up a rolling scissors as Green Three pulled his Sabre above the MiG (and no doubt vanished in the act) as the increasingly desperate MiG pilot tried to extend away to the NW. But escape was not yet possible as Green One had re-positioned for a head on pass to fire a long burst at the passing MiG. This action turned the MiG hard left just as Green Two pulled once again into effective gun range. Green Two then fired a steady burst that ripped along the entire length of his opponent's fuselage. An instant later Green Two fired a second burst sending a steam of .50 cal rounds into the stricken MiG-15. In a flash, the MiG exploded.

 

It looked to White Flight, orbiting North of the fight at 38,000', as if the MiG split into three sections rising up like a fountain of burning wreckage then cascading down in an arc to the ground below.

 

With the action seemingly over, White Flight cruised high above Green Flight who were now rejoining on a heading of 060 degrees five thousand feet below. Dropkick then turned onto 120 degrees and extended toward the coast intending to RTB at K-55 for fuel and ammo. But at 11:18:40 hours, White Three reported a pair of contrails at 9 o'clock to the North and climbing. Green Lead checked fuel and once he was satisfied that enough remained for another round, ordered Dropkick to turn onto a 360 degree to intercept. White Flight banked smoothly to port and jettisoned tanks to prepare for this second round. White Lead then suffered another system failure when his tank release failed to function. Using the emergency jettison control he watched as the big 200 gal tanks cartwheeled away from his starboard wing, then confident of flying a clean aircraft, continued to climb toward the incoming bogies. As the second engagement got underway, MiG#1 (Coosjoaquin) barreled in on a head-on attack against Green Lead, while MiG#2 (Brunson) trailed in echelon right some distance behind. White Flight pushed higher to 39,000' to commence a cross over above the merge.

 

Watching below as Green Lead and MiG#1 exchanged fire at the merge, White Lead observed hits on the MiG. White Flight continued to pull up in a right arc high over the MiG to gain position for the pursuit. MiG#1 then leveled his wings to climb above con then rolled left to dive back into the fight. White Flight were well positioned and now dropped in lag pursue of MiG#1 closing the gap as he re-entered con toward Green Flight below. Green One had by now reversed and charged in for a second head-on pass firing a short burst at MiG#1. Green Two joined White Lead in pursuit of MiG#1 as both aircraft passed through .90 Mach. At 11:24:27 hrs MiG#1 was forced to counter another head-on pass as Green Three fired a burst that narrowly missed the nose of his opponent's aircraft. With the pilot of MiG#1 distracted by Green Flight, White Lead closed to within effective gun range to fire three short bursts that forced MiG#1 to jink yet again. Each aircraft manoeuvred to gain an advantage in the thin air at 38,000' but it was Green Two and White Lead who managed to retain position to fire bursts in rapid succession. White Lead quickly fired a second burst that scored hits on the left rear fuselage.

 

MiG#2 now entered the fight from the North, passing beneath MiG#1 to bank around to the left in an attempt to engage wingmen White Three and White Four. At 11:26:20 hrs, MiG#1 snap rolled, reversed and dove away. This manoeuvre took MiG#1 below con at .90 Mach with White Lead in pursuit, but the MiG was able to climb out effectively while White Lead dropped lower to remain out of buffet. While at first this seemed to place White Lead at a disadvantage, since the MiG initially climbed higher, the greater speed retained by the Sabre allowed it to out-climb the MiG to regain a position above and behind the MiG.

 

Green Three now rejoined the fight to fire a short burst as Green Two closed the gap while squeezing off a snap shot. But in diving onto the climbing MiG, Green Two overshot his intended target and slipped below and to the right. White Lead continued to edge his Sabre into point blank range then squeezed a burst just as the MiG filled his gun sight. A stream of .50 Cal rounds tore into the wing root and port side fuselage forcing MiG#1 into a hard bank to port but unfortunately for him, he was caught squarely with a second burst by White Lead. MiG#1 now used his considerable skill in an attempt to break clear of Dropkick while MiG#2 was engaged with White Three and Four ten miles to the East.

 

Green One and Green Three now re-engaged MiG#1 each firing short bursts while jockeying for position. MiG#2 disengaged from White Three and Four and he seemed to take up a heading toward a passing flight of cargo planes at 30,000' above. But as Green One fired three bursts almost at the same time that Green Two fired three of his own, MiG#2 suddenly banked left toward MiG#1 undoubtedly in response to a call for some assistance. Before MiG#2 could influence the fight however, Green Two fired again to score more hits on MiG#1. The time was now 11:30:52 as MiG#1 pulled a high scissors to expertly dive down, fire and hit Green Two with a near fatal burst from his cannons. Green Two, now smoking badly and unsure of the extent of damage to his Sabre stayed with Green One as the pair continued the chase MiG#1. Just then, a burst of fire passed by Green Lead too close for comfort and he was forced to break left (White Three was closing on Green One and had fired past him at the MiG). White Three then passed very close to but overshot the MiG. This allowed MiG#2 to pull onto the six of White Three to fire a short burst but no hits were registered.

 

The fight now began to die out as MiG#1 was critically damaged and unable to regain altitude. He struggled along at 7,000' toward Maykop but crashed at 11:35:49 before reaching the airport. MiG#2 redirected toward the passing cargo aircraft enticing Green Flight and the remainder of White to chase him for a while, but Green Lead called bingo fuel to lead Dropkick back to K-55. All aircraft completed RTB at 11:45:00 hours.

Could someone provide an update based on Zulu times and days when the latest players, squadrons, etc., are on this server? Would like to bring in new players not only when no one is on the server for mission familiarization but also have them check in with you first via online chat to observe some of the larger, complex, fun scenarios that you guys fly and fight! I've read through all 28 pages and there is a lot of good stuff but the dates and times for the missions may not be in current use.

 

Do the 'bombers' (C-130s) still fly out at the beginning of the missions more than just once?

 

Have been busy flying the F-18 and Harrier....too many lights and switches for me! I can honestly say that this SeaQuark Server is the finest DCS World Server with its 'just right' amount of complexity and mission-goal orientation with the F-86 and the Mig-15bis to have a lot of realistic fun. Extremely well done by SeaQuark and all you guys who have helped him out!

Join discord server, link in the 1st post and get in touch with people there.

I believe there is some issue with the original mission now which waits to be resolved and some simple one is running on the server.
