                                                             May 20 1951                                                                                    July/30/19

                                            "Operation Fireball"


  In early April, 1951, a new method was worked out where the 5th Air Force worked with
           the Navy in bombardment of enemy positions up and down the east coast of Korea
.          The LSMR Division fired 12,924 5-inch rockets at Wonsan from June through Sept. 1951.
           Their first and biggest day in Wonsan was the night of May 20 and 21 when "Operation Fireball"
           was completed. Two LSMR\u2019s fired a total of 4,903 rockets at Wonsan targets in a 35-minute period.
           The 5th Air Force dropped flares and attacked various targets. Navy F9Fs attacked Wonsan airfield
           while the ships off shore shelled the coast-line targets with star shells and 5-inch rockets.

       




                                      ======================================
                                      1st.sqd. F-86s

                                      H.Q.& Gst. fill in gaps
                                      ======================================
                                      F-80s hit targets along the coast line.
                                      F-86s CAP the 80s.
                                      F9Fs strike the Woonsan air field.

I had an issue last night when padlocking ground targets, I was not seeing the little indicator pointing to what I was locking. What would be the cause of that?

Not sure... could it be that blue objects are changed to red and vise versa ?

Also if anyone recorded the mission last night ,I need a copy.
Mine is half blue sky and half green ground, Please...
If not we got to do over

I had the same issue with padlocking ground targets.

Don't think the colors were changed since the padlock is designated "Enemy Ground" and they were locking on.  I thought maybe markers were hidden by the trees or some other graphic, but that's just a guess, too.

"What the hell, let's see what happens"?  Me too.

I could be wrong , but when flying coops online and ground padlock is on, Ive never seen the triangle thing around the locked target.   Only seen it offline doing single player.

Klink - "Phantom, get this guy off my tail!"
Phantom - "Im trying, but I cant hit him "
Klink - "Then dont aim at him when you shoot!!!"

The  ground padlock we use  is a  narrow solid colored triangle above the ground target when we coop  online. It's think it's labeled something like Enemy External Ground Padlock.  It's a little different than the in cockpit air padlock triangle that surrounds a padlocked plane.

It was wierd cause my view would lock onto stuff, just not give me the little marker. We've had it online before. I wonder if it is dependant on the type of object. May have to test that.

I regret to inform everyone that Mission #12 Triangle Hill
must be done again. :surprised-041: My game was not recording tracks as
it should have been and no one else has recorded the last mission. :sad-056:
I have re-installed my game from a thumb drive I keep in
reserve and it seems to record properly. :cool:  I will post the scores
after I get the results from mission #12. I will post the totals from
Missions #1 through mission#12 by the end of next week.

The next 2 groups of missions are 13 missions each,
13 allied and the last 13 are communist. These 26
missions were created before the Korean A/C mod,
so Im thinking if we all turned the Mod off maybe
some of the problems might go away. It's worth a try.
The last 13 mission maps (commies) are the same as the previous
13 mission maps (allies) flying MiG-15s for the last 13 missions.

I'm open to comments, good, bad or indifferent.

So we don't actually need the korean war aircraft pack after mission 12?

I was wondering a few weeks ago what our position was on this mod, wether we were using it just for this campaign or had adopted it as a permanent part of our game moving forward.

Two missions a night is fine, as long as we don't take a half-hour to get airborne in the first.

The aircraft in the next 26 missions we had before the mod. The only time you need the Mod activated is for the
Sky raider versions, a few F4U versions, the Meteor versions, and the A-26 versions and two Russian planes I believe.
It won't hurt to leave the mod  activated, but you can turn it off if you wish.
