If nothing is accomplished, so what? PAVN were willing to fight to the last soldier either way. ++MISSION BRIEFING++ Good morning, Squadron, As we gather here today, the anticipation and focus in the air are palpable. We stand on the precipice of Operation Rolling Thunder, a critical mission that will show the VC and PAVN forces what the US tac payer money has to offer. Our objectives are clear, and success rests on each and every one of you. Mission Overview: Operation Rolling Thunder is a high-stakes mission designed to disrupt enemy supply lines and infrastructure. Our squadron has been assigned a crucial role in this operation, and the success of the entire mission hinges on our precision and effectiveness. Your planes: 10x F-4C Phantom II: Used as the primary AA and light bomb element. 4x F-105F Thunderchief: Your way to get through enemy guided missiles, use the bomber anti-radiation missiles and cluster bombs to get deep into VC territory. 2x B-52H bombers: The heavy bombardment, they will be the key to our success, without them we won't be able to deal enough damage. 1x C-119: Your eye in the sky and command element, its camera will give you a chance to search for targets and get their BDA. Additionally you have a daisy cutter bomb for a hasty evac for downed pilots. Objectives: Complete all fire missions, destroying enemy supplies and assets. Disable enemy AA emplacements. Maintain air superiority. Assist any nearby friendly forces. Conclusion: Operation Rolling Thunder is not just a mission; it's a test of our skills, resilience, and commitment to the mission objectives. Each one of you is an integral part of the success we aim to achieve today. Trust in your training, trust in your teammates, and let's make this mission a resounding success. Dismissed. Good luck, and may we return victorious.
