splash Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Hi, I'm thinking about buying this campaign taking advantage of the sales, and I wonder if it is for very experienced F-18 pilots or accesible for someone like me that knows most of the systems but I'm not an expert. I beg some advice, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fangs Out Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 its middle of the road in difficulty. Knowledge of JDAMS,TGP and LGBs are a must. A2A Refueling is good to have but not required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arbil Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I'm through mission 7 and it's not too difficult so far. Tons of fun. You are going to want to be really familiar with employing all the different weapons the hornet has available, using the TGP, setting up the A/A waypoint and using BRA (rock) calls, using your radios, and proper landing procedures. The kneeboards that are provided are extremely helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splash Posted February 9, 2021 Author Share Posted February 9, 2021 Ok thanks, I bought it already and starting to read the book too. I'm very bad at refuelling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic_dragon Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hey @splash and thanks! Good news is we finally managed to find a way that may work for skipping the AAR part, testing it now! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistermann Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Thanks for making the campaign more accessible to the masses. I am a raw "nugget" in the F-18 and am working though training right now. Want to work myself up to this campaign (already purchased). I purchased the book and completed and am now on the second book. Can't wait to get proficient enough with the Hornet to tackle this campaign.
