After ‘allegedly’ recovering an object that fell to earth near Krymsk and refusing to co-operate with the International Community NATO HAS INVADED RUSSIA after several weeks of hostile negotiations regarding the object!
And so it has finally happened, after decades of war games and propaganda one superpower has finally got an excuse to step onto the others home land!
The Allied assault 2 days ago on Anapa has established a spearhead for Allied forces to operate out of the Mother Land. Allied B1 and F-117 Stealth Bombers completely destroyed the Russian air defenses at Krymsk, Novo and Gele within a matter of hours on the opening night of the campaign after word got out that the Russian’s had moved to Alien object to a facility near Moscow.
The Russians and her Israeli allies have now established a forward line to take on the Allies from Krasnodar and are deploying all their strength to that region, Maykop has been shut down in fear of Allied bombing and all Russian units have been moved to Krasnodar to try and force the Allies into the sea.
Due to the high losses suffered on both sides over the past 2 days, the High Commands of both Coalitions agree they can only afford to commit another 5 Aerial Tankers and 4 Armour Groups each in the region before a Strategic Withdrawal must take place!
Both sides have S300 SAM sites inbound to reinforce their positions respectively, however this cannot be achieved until either side destroys the third enemy target group on the ground, to enable these reinforcements to move forward!
Rules:
NO TAXI-WAY TAKEOFF! You must use the runway.
Use the LEFT side of the runway for takeoff and landing.
Do NOT leave the server while engaged/damaged.
Please do NOT re-arm on the runway.
Auto Kick for TK.
Mission Brief (Simulation)
Operation Armageddon was inspired by the style of some of the missions made by the =4c= Squadron. The 104th would first of all like to thank the =4c= Squadron for the inspiration for this map.
Armageddon is a close range air domination map with both sides being separated by just 78nm. This means bullseye for fighters is only 38 miles away or 3-4 minutes away as you takeoff.
This mission has specifically designed to offer a high intensity environment with both sides having no initial advantage in SAM cover. There are no long range SAMS at either sides home bases of Anapa or Krasnodar. Instead both sides have an ‘Anti Air Fence’ surrounding their home-plate with medium range BUK assets 10 miles to the rear.
This means both sides have an initial uncovered tactical area of some 67 miles with no SAM cover, which serves as the main area for air combat to take place.
Both teams CAN EARN a team bonus of an S300 Battery to compliment the existing BUK Battery at their home base. This is achieved after destroying all targets at the respective teams Target Area Charlie
Both teams can win the Battle if they DESTROY ALL FOUR ENEMY TARGET AREA’S.
There are also Air Tankers available in the mission, both sides are LIMITED TO FIVE EACH!
Both teams can win the Battle if they DESTROY ALL FIVE ENEMY AIR TANKERS.
This means there are two ways a team can choose to try and win.. taking the fight to the enemy Target Area’s or enemy Air Tankers, which ever is completed first will win you the mission!
The Ground War in Armageddon has a difficulty level of VERY HARD and will take some time, planning and most importantly co-ordination with other pilots to complete. All target area’s are HEAVILY defended with Infra Red SAM systems including MANPADS with NO RADAR SAM support which makes entry into these Target Area’s extremely dangerous and not for faint of heart!
The Air Tankers are operating in the area covered by both teams BUK Batteries and will again take some co-ordination to destroy and more important DEFEND!
