Axis Plans for Frame 2 Posted here.

[daddog]

Here are the orders I thought some of you might like to view.

My squad spent over an hour looking for the enemy fleet. Missed them on the 5 line heading out west the first time. Sorry for those that had a long wait for nothing. No enemy planes were protecting the fleet by the time we found it. We had another group of Ju88’s head south and drop on A104. They were attacked by some P-38’s.

Have no idea how the frame went yet. My gut feeling is KOOL you have it. Many more targets than squads so things were pretty thin for the Axis. Maybe for you also.


Stomping 68th – Roll A23 in 109G6 and defend A23, V8 and V9 from attack. Suggest you use drop tanks and 75% fuel.

9GIAP VVS RKKA – Roll A18 in 109G2 and defend V19. Suggest you use drop tanks and 75% fuel.

UKNIGHTED JG26 – Roll A18 in 109G2 and defend A18. Suggest you use drop tanks and 75% fuel.

65th FS ~Fighting ***** – Roll A18 in 190A5 w/500kg bomb. Escort 332nd Flying Mongrels out of A18 to the task group area 2.6, 3.6, 2.5, 3.5. Drop ordnance after take off if you desire or keep it in case you are in a position to dive bomb enemy Destroyers. Drop ordnance and engage any enemy CAP spotted. Escorting is your primary objective. Attacking enemy ships is your secondary objective. Only drop on DD’s. CV is not a target. 332nd will be flying NOE with torpedoes so stay above their location.

332nd Flying Mongrels – Roll A18 in Ju88’s with 100% fuel and 2 torpedoes. 4 Ju88’s will have bombs for ordinance to drop on 104.  Head to the 2.6, 3.6, 2.5, 3.5 area. Use two scouts in 109G2 w/100% fuel to scout ahead and spot the task group. After Ju88’s with torps are empty turn south for A104 and fly in formation with 4 Ju88’s that have the bombs.

VFS 1000 – Roll A114 in 109G2 and defend A114. Suggest you use drop tanks and 75% fuel.

DAMNED – Roll A114 in 109G2 and defend A114.

Shillelagh – Roll A114 Ju87 with 2-250kg bombs and 1-1000kg bomb. Target is P109 and A103. 2nd life in 190A5 roll from A 114 together w/500kg bomb and attack P109 and A103. If by chance A114 is down then roll from A18 and attack A103.

III/Jabostaffle ES – Roll A114 in 109G2 w/250kg bomb. Suggest 100% fuel and drop ordinance shortly after take off. Escort Shillelagh out of 114 to P109 and A103.

Nightmares VMF101 – Roll A23 (1/2 squad in C205 & ½ in 109G2 w/250kg bomb) to sweep and attack A47 and P6. Primary target is A47. C205 sweep ahead and the 109G2’s escort the Arabian Knights to A47. 109G2 drop ordinance if Arabian Knights are attacked.

Arabian Knights – Roll A23 in Ju88’s with 4-500kg bombs and 20-50kg bombs. Attack A47 and P6. Primary target is A47. Nightmares in 109G2 will escort you to target.

Were the JU88's at A47 drinking heavy tonite. The escort wiped us out the sky at 47. then we were a bunch of Bob Ukers  calling bomb drops from the tower. Just a bit outside. But we our landscaper would like to thank you for all the grass repair.
we just put his kid through college.

The best was the one flight that dropped full load and almost killed us in the tower. got the dar though.

oh and the lone ju88 on the deck staffing a47, good job staying alive as long as ya did, was fun watching that.

Salute to the 205's you guys were a blender on Frape(never thought I'd ever get to use that word).

Fun night, gotta luv FSO

to all

You had a good plan there daddog. We were short on numbers. Ended up only had 1 person defending the fleet early in the frame. Tango did a bang up job but later I lost contact with him as I was busy at V19 with a Me109 in my sights.  Early in the frame a long Me109 headed toward the fleet.  He was at 27K when I saw him and was probably at 30k by the time he was near the fleet.  I doubt he could see it from that altitude with the cloud layer we had.  Heck the cloud layer messed up our B24 bomb runs.  For both groups they couldn't see their first target and had to drop to a lower altitude.  Doing so meant they had to go back to hit the target, which was one of the things I didn't want to happen during the mission; but as it turned out all went well and our big bothers did a bang up job too.  This was my first time CiCing and I lost a lot of sleep this week. I'm about ready to hit the hay but will jump on my other computer and post the plans on the boards so you could see what we had planned.  Good work daddog, we had lots of fun tonight!

lol doobs.

That would be HeavyH. He was one of our 109 Scouts. HeavyH flew right down the middle of the 2.5, 3.5 area. Outlaw our other scout went flew down the middle of the 2.6, 3.6 area. HeavyH ran from some P-38’s. If I knew one of them was you I would have ordered him to kill you at all costs. Rgr HeavyH never saw the fleet. He and outlaw went to the vertical 2 line and headed east to sweep again. About that time it had been an hour and all the Ju-88’s were at the 2.6 corner turning east spread out and look again. It was an hour + 15 min before we found the fleet. Sorry Tango to make you fly around and not have any action. Believe me we were trying to find it.

Glad you had a good time KOOL. That is what Squad Ops is all about and with 200 players coming back week after week we must be doing something right.
