gabuzomeu Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Hello, Any advice on how to beat the mission 11 adversary? Thanks I manage to spot gazelles on radar Low PRF , but then Mistral seems to never let go and have longer range than my Magic. Any recommendation is welcome for this lousy pilot :) Details: Asus Z-170E, Intel i5-6600K @ 4.2GHz, 16GB RAM MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G Win 10 Home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsun Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Ah! Got the exact same problem today, trying to put up a training mission to learn to deal with those, but suggestions from well versed pilots would be really welcome... even my all AI wingmen went down lol ...

baltic_dragon Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Hey guys this is a tough one, I know. My advice: If you really are in trouble wait for the Gazelles to engage the Hogs. They will attack them with Sidewinders and guns - at that moment drop on them with entire flight. Use flares and keep your head on a swivel plus be careful not to hit the A-10. Hope this helps!

Jetsun Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) Ok thank you Sir, will do that. Will also continue to practice some heads on with those new friends of yours, interesting. Oh n speaking of which, as I was trying to put on a lil’ training mission for this part n replicate your AI behaviour, I looked at your mission in the mission editor, founded what I needed, but was very surprised to found no trigger n things, so Î’m just curious about what Î’m missing here, unless of course it is kind of personal secret recipe ;) Edited September 21, 2018 by Jetsun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabuzomeu Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 Thanks for help, I finally managed to survive through it, but none of my wingmen did.... SAD!

Cyrus Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 (edited) Yeah, hunting Gazelles is great! All Mirages except mine were shot down. My plane was hit by 2 mistral missiles, but the cannon still worked and I managed to get back to Nellis. Edited November 4, 2018 by Cyrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for help, I finally managed to survive through it, but none of my wingmen did.... SAD! Indeed, had the same results most of the time :D but I always felt most sorry for Max. Yeah, hunting Gazelles is great! All Mirages except mine were shot down. My plane was hit by 2 mistral missiles, but the cannon still worked and I managed to get back to Nellis. Gratz! At some point I thought that I'd need to make this mission much easier as nobody will pass it, but I see it is quite OK :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 This mission is hard! This is the first time i feel the need to stop by the forums and look for tips. To be completly honest my first reaction was that those gazelles were bug exploiting. While i'm writing here i take the occasion to thank you Baltic! The ambiance and effort you put to immerse players in your campaigns is fantastic. Every times i launch a mission of yours i feel like i'm there in the pit and part of a whole military operation!

Yes, well said. I have completed this campaign for a second time and must say second time around I am a better Mirage pilot! Not to mention feeling that I actually fly for Arme de l'air! Re mission. 11, I think it highlights how difficult it is to get the Matra Magic's to lock a Gazelle. This may be quite accurate! Certainly the 9x is a more sensitive seeker and can be off boresighted! But we can't swap the Mirage c for a Hornet in the campaign. If you do a scenario mission with the Hornet and 9x the outcome is interesting! But I love the "Charle"! I wish BD would do another campaign for her! Regards.

blackactionedwin Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 possible attack strategy Hi everyone who is going through the "Gazelle hell". After several fails I made a training mission trying to find more effective attacks with a higher chance of survival :pilotfly: My findings where that the best chance of beating those little bastards was to shoot all Magics in a single attack run. Best results with an attack from above flying the same course, then locking the missiles on one after another. After the last shot I went full AB 90° up to get out of the line of fire. Another strategy was to do the same on low level flight which makes finding and lock easier but I never managed to get out of the danger zone :-) in time. good luck and don´t forget your stapler :thumbup: BAE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savras Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 made it at first try with all enemy destroyed. To fight gazelles use good old boom & zoom tactics. I mostly used my guns to shoot them down. Don't turn hard on them. Easy on the stick, extend and attack again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o-Tomcat-o Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 This mission is pretty hard because it's really hard to spot those damn Gazelle. i wasn't able to spot them with my radar, so had to do it visually. But as there are helos, they can't put their nose up, so i use verticality to kill them. 3 magic hits, and "only" 3 mirage down. Chevy 2 lost his 2 mirages + one of mine.
