splash Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Hi, I tried this mission lots of time and always miss my first Harm shot. I'm using TOO mode at about 20 miles or so. Could you give me some advice to destroy the SAMs? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger633 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Hi Splash I would get in a bit closer. The SAMS are SA8 so their strike range is about 6 miles so I would fire at about 10 miles. Just make sure you keep 10 miles out until they are destroyed. Most important on this one is that they are in a slight dip on the hill and so you need to be high enough to clear trees etc. Suggest at least 15K Hope this helps Cheers Glyn ( Badger633) 3 F/A-18C Campaigns : The Serpent’s Head / The Serpent’s Head 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- I9 9900K @ 5.0Ghz / Gigabyte 2080ti water force extreme / 32 Gb RAM Corsair Dominator Platinum 3600 / 2Tb Samsung 970 Evoplus NVMe M.2 / Thrustmaster Warthog Hotas / Thrustmaster Pedals / Valve Index.

gachatar Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) I tried using HARMs, hit both SAMs and then I got mission failure for not doing first objective. I just ended up ignoring the SAMs and shooting the artillery from just outside SAM range with the Mavs. Edited April 6, 2021 by gachatar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have issued an update to ED to correct this and hopefully this will be issued in the next update. Sorry, but out of my control. In the update I have added an additional super carrier version of the campaign as well. 1 F/A-18C Campaigns : The Serpent’s Head / The Serpent’s Head 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- I9 9900K @ 5.0Ghz / Gigabyte 2080ti water force extreme / 32 Gb RAM Corsair Dominator Platinum 3600 / 2Tb Samsung 970 Evoplus NVMe M.2 / Thrustmaster Warthog Hotas / Thrustmaster Pedals / Valve Index.
