Die Rückkehr die Lolwaffles

Mission 5
Clear the way for Fw-190s attacking enemy shipping entering Murmansk

Outcome
No enemy contacts sighted, although the Finns and Germans were heavily engaged. Waited over the enemy convoy for the slowest Fw-190s in the Luftwaffe to show up, then diverted to Murmansk then RTB.

Raptors totally historical skin...

Slowest Fw-190s ever...

Hunter's 109

Mission 6
Fw-190A4s attack shipping leaving Murmansk harbour

Outcome
Took off in eco-Fw-190A4s which have throttles that don't go above 88%. Attacked the shipping, Oberon crashed whilst taking a screenshot of Hunters successful bomb drop, Arclight was shot down by the ship AAA, then Raptor and Hunter were bounced by Soviet Hurricanes. Hunter stalled and then entered a spin into the sea, while Raptor was set on fire and crashed.

Raptor and his 'Marie' bomb

Hunters bomb hits its mark...and then I hit mine...

Hunter flies over the damaged ship

The Hurricanes bounce Hunter

The merge

The stall

The fire

The end

Mission 7
Clear the way for Fw-190s attacking Murmashi airfield

Outcome
Took off and headed for Murmashi, patrolled around Murmashi airfield and then spotted a group of enemy contacts heading for our lines. Turned and engaged, Hunter and Oberon took engine damage and RTB'd, Arclight and Raptor engaged and shot down several Peshkas. Oberon pancaked next to the airfield, Raptor nosed over whilst trying to clear the runway rapidly for Oberon, and then crashed his IL2, Arclight and Hunter landed ok.

Raptors completely historical skin suffers a breakdown

If the formation was any looser it would be in different countries...

Hello Peshkas from hell...

I made his engine smoke...

...and he returned the favour...

Raptor makes short work of the remaining Peshkas

While I make my traditional sliding exit from the cockpit...

And Raptor heads for space, via the Earths core...

If it all fits in a single screenshot I call it well executed formation flight

however that run with the FW190's....

totally golfplatzed

Yeah, I'm going to take a look at the settings in DCG I think, I'm pretty sure Platinum Fox did not just consist of Fw-190s...

HunterICX · 07-11-14, 06:01 AM

Nope, but JG5 did mainly use 109's and 190's and was the Fighterwing most active in the Murmansk area during 1942 before moving to southern Norway Late 42 early 43 due increased threat by the Allied Airforces in the area.

@Zirran: So far the flights are on wednesday and thursday night.

Yeah, I just noticed that...no wonder the Murmansk drive failed.

I think that has to do more with this...little...fact

Well, yes, that doesn't help. But well, it sparked the best bromance of all time:
