The 104th Proudly Present the second in our new series of MP missions
Operation Carbon Coastline
2 years after facing defeat at the hands of the Coalition assault codenamed Operation Moonshield, the Russian Government has decided to assert its dominance in the region and has invaded Georgia using Sochi as a spear head.
The Russians now control Sukhumi Airbase and are operating all their forward strength from this position.
The Georgian Forces suffered heavy losses in the initial contact with the Russian’s and have pulled back to the last remaining Georgian stronghold, the area of Kobuleti and Batumi.
Yesterday at 01:47z American F-15C’s and A-10’s arrived into Batumi and Kobuleti from Aviano Airbase in Northern Italy shortly followed by Ukrainian SU-27s and Mig-29S assets.
Now stronger than ever Georgia and her Coalition partners are determined to push back the Russian offensive and drive them back to Sochi!
Mission Brief (Simulation):
-Operation Carbon Coastline is a small scale air dominance map, with both sides being separated by just 80 miles. This means bullseye is approximately 40nm or 4 minutes flying time for both sides.
-Aerial refueling is available on both sides less than 10nm behind the primary Airbases of Sukhumi and Batumi.
-Both sides have 5 Target Area’s each to destroy all roughly the same distance and flight times for each team. TA’s on both sides are complete with identical units, both blue and red ground vehicles are current and ex Russian stock.
This means no side has an advantage in the level of armour deployed on the field.
-Both sides have identical SAM platforms to defend primary Airbases and strategic locations around the map.
-Operation Carbon Coastline is designed to be a fast paced air to air mission with opponents less than 5 minutes flying time after takeoff.
