[WAD B1728] Strike mission: 4 planes, one flight, one target, iron bombs
Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2025 12:29 pm
I really like the strike planner and I’m trying to get the most out of it after studying the manual and reading some forum discussion.
To test it, I set up a long-range strike mission: the Ouadi Doum 1986 French Jaguar attack on a Libyan airbase in Chad.
I ran some tests with 4 aircraft, after a long trip involving tanker support. Everything worked nicely, but at the decisive moment only the lead plane attacked with the BAP-100 anti-runway bombs at low altitude.
Some notes:
• 4 Jaguars in a single flight with a complex flight plan (flight size = 4)
• The 4 planes should all attack the runway access point together, dropping all bombs in one pass. WRA = all bombs per target and 1x shooter (I also tried 4 shooters).
I made several tests, but unfortunately only the lead aircraft engaged the target, while the other three returned with their full bomb load. Maybe I’m missing something?
I already checked this interesting discussion for guidance, although it focuses on a different issue.
