Grah, my second mission did not go as well as I would've liked!



I went on a SEAD strike to the Wonsan area, which was expectably a hornet's nest. Cautious not to stir it up too much, I fired off my HARMs from safe distance, and not being able to get my wingies to use their weapons from afar, I decided to get out. I hit the wrong SAM site and thus had the mission counted as failure.


(SAM flying through the sky)

On the way home, I had a mouth-watering encounter with a flight of unescorted Tu-16s. All my weapons hit - but alas - the bombers were tough and none was taken down by MY missiles. Imagine my frustration when I even went in for a gun kill, and it was scored to someone else who popped the plane at the last moment with a missile





But the most frustrating thing came right at the end. With the start-of-campaign overload of targets, it's easy to let something slip by... So, one of my wingies was killed by a stupid MiG-19 while on his landing approach. The perpetrator was taken down by a nearby Patriot battery immediately thereafter
