ABS FIESTA - LOCKED EDITION

[Operator¹]

Well I have a multirole. What do you have again?

Oh, I'm rolling with the same exact aircraft as you.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Try it out now," one of the mechanics say.

I turn on master electronics and begin testing the controls. The aileron doesn't move.

It turns out, they only fixed the navigation lights. A fuel truck pulls up next to the plane and they give me a full tank. After which, I thank them, taxi to the runway, and take off. I head for the point where the tanker for the return trip should be at, hoping that my comrades are doing alright.

[ZombiLoin]

Let's see if Qwep lets us reinforce the guys in combat.

[Operator¹]

I think we could have spent a little more time with the Cold-war era aircraft.

Current AO is approximately 1,500 kilometers out from Valhalla airbase*. At top speed you would make it in 36 minutes. This is not accounting for mid-air refuels so that you would remain combat-capable when you are in the AO. So bump that up 45 minutes. That is a 45 minute gap for the Huit forces to hit the dockyards. And this is a low estimate for your flight time. A very, very low estimate.
God forbid you take the A-10s.

*This is a rough estimate and should not be taken too seriously as I am too lazy to actually do the math calculating the distance. Also I have forgotten the formulas.

RE-EVALUATION:
Assuming all of you take Mirage 4000s, your flight time would be 36 minutes, 48 seconds. This is assuming:
-Straight flight path
-Unlimited fuel
-Constant flight at top speed
MiG-29s flying at top speed will reach the AO in 37 minutes, 30 seconds. Again, assuming you cheated like above.
F/A-18 Hornets drastically increase flight time to, rounding up, 47 minutes.
Bringing in an A-10 would take over 2 hours.
So it is highly unlikely that you will be able to deploy on time.

I wouldn't know because the map doesn't really help at all

[Qwepir]

Obrad locks onto a Challenger tank, firing an A-G-M at it. He then moves over and fires cannon rounds at it to ensure destruction. Then, he locks onto the other Challenger and fires 2 A-G-M.

The first tonk gets merely immobilized, with the second getting blown to smithereens.

Misfit flight shoots down two of the choppers, and a Mercanan marine squad hiding out in a building demolishes one of the IFVs with a rocket launcher.

Current enemy forces in the AO:
1 SEPECAT Jaguar strike craft
1 Naval Frigate
5 Littoral Combat Ships
1 Tiger Attack Helicopter

Targets requiring immediate attention:
EVERYTHING.

Targets requiring immediater attention:
1 Challenger Tank
2 Warrior IFVs
2 Bronco Amphibious Carriers

My apologies, I couldn't quite make an actual map scale thing because I'm not a very good cartographer.

[Operator¹]

oh yeah I put in an inquiry at the logistics department to see if you guys have any electronic warfare craft

[xxxxkill]

None are currently available to Mjolnir flight.

I may have overlooked EW aircraft.

[ZombiLoin]

Can I put in a transfer request to Mobile Infantry

[Operator¹]

Can I put in a transfer request to Mobile Infantry

they'll get there even more slowly, unless you've considered jumping out of an SR-71


oh no I've discovered that bomb/launcher racks are a thing
