That AD-4 has a 1xNuke loadout.  :thinking-008:

Doesn't seem to appear on the plane though.

I don't think so, I don't believe the Skyraider has any internal storage. On the other models the nuke appears on the centerline rack.

Yep. The  Korean Campaign is  a good one. 

At that awkward age where your brain has gone from " Probably shouldn't say that" to
"What the hell, let's see what happens"?  Me too.

Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly.

Permission to come aboard tonight?  I have the korea plane add-on and the rest as needed I believe. Also signed onto discord.

As a non-squad type, Im assuming you guys will put me into a slot as needed? Im ok flying any aircraft on either side.

Cheers

S!

  You're very welcome to fly with us tonight and anytime. 

   Fair warning: It's been our experience that it's not unusual to go through a  restart ( or two) as the aircraft in this campaign are somewhat unfamiliar, so a little patience is helpful in that regard.

Looking forward to seeing you there.  :drinking-42:    Scheduled start time is 9:00 PM EDT   Might be a warm up/ flight check to confirm the mission loads/runs properly for everyone shortly before  launch.

Yeah, wouldnt mind a test run on my set up just to be sure.

See ya there

I was tinkering with the A-26B that 1st will fly, it has a few interesting loadouts.

There is one that has 6x500lbs+4x500lbs External, so you'd get five drops of two 500 pounders.

There is also 6x500lbs+10xHVARs so you'd get three bombs drops plus five rocket shots.

Or if you want to go with fewer bomb drops but more boom there is 4x1000lbs+10xHVARs.

There are versions of the first two loadouts that add 2x175 Napalm as well, though I'm not sure if we wanna use that. This A-26B has eight nose guns but also three in each wing, so it has fourteen .50s worth of forward firing stroffage.

These loadouts seem pretty heavy for takeoff though, we'll need to mind how much runway we have ahead of us. Maybe be prepared to turn off onto the taxiway so we can position for a full takeoff run.

PS - "Stroffage" should now be added to the Aces High Dictionary.

 KC-10 Heart Break Ridge    July/09/19

Sept/13-Oct/15/1951

 
Sept/13th 1951

The Battle of Heartbreak Ridge was a month-long campaign in the Korean War,
lasting from the 13th of September until the 15th of October, 1951.
The site of the battle was a seven-mile-long (11-kilometer) stretch of land over three sharp peaks,
separated by steep valleys. The area is slightly north of today's Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) at the 38th Parallel
that separated the two countries on the Korean Peninsula. United Nations (UN) troops had driven back
the North Koreans and Chinese from Bloody Ridge a mile to the south, and the Communists had entrenched
themselves at Heartbreak Ridge to slow their advance. The entire offensive in the area had been initiated
by the United Nations, in an effort to disenfranchise the Communists of this important staging area
for their attacks on South Korea.
