Great book, unfortunately it does not list the deployments. It actually says the kitty hawk was in service life extension 1988-91 which is odd if it was in combat.

I wish I had this.

Yeah as much of a big deal Gaddafi was during the '80s I can't find much about the conflicts with him.

Sidra 81!

Checking it out right now!

Take your time. I'm sure there's things you want to change. This is a complicated task of historical interpretation and making it work in a game.

Wish it was easier to post pictures without a third party website.

I played about seven minutes into the scenario, had two elements of tomcats (AAW) and hornets (strike) up, was going to recover the viking if need to but posted it seaward since it had plenty of fuel and encase some seaborne attack. Only had a I think a J-8 appear after I attacked one of the airports on the western side of the gulf. I stopped there because we were having dinner. I'll try again this evening. Thanks for sharing!

Unfortunately fleet command does not have floggers and the closest equivalent aircraft (third generation, BVR, eastern) fighter is the finback. Let me know if you have a better solution.

The ROE in the scenario is up to you, in 1981 they did not go around bombing airbases and if you do nothing the fitters will launch at their historic time.

Thanks for making this scenario. I think I had just completed the "shore bombardment" scenario so I wasn't thinking about the ROE. :hmmm:

The two major airports (Tripoli and Benina) have pretty good air defenses and they shouldn't be easily attackable. In the game they are because one tomahawk will kill everything but historically it would take a lot of effort.

If you do want to blow everything up there is a dorado canyon scenario like I said

Sidra 86.

The remaining scenario is trivial, its just kennedy versus two migs.

Sent the viking home right away.

Didn't know what to expect probing with prowler and two hornets, tomcats on call
