I updated this Eagle mission pack made in April to 1.1.1.

Originally this pack was made for Lock On 1.02 and it no longer worked as it should with 1.1.1 - now they are fully playable again as I balanced these missions in the same style of Carrier Ops, a pack I made recently for the Su-33.

The briefings for these are new, they indicate when you can take advantage of the fact that you will be flying very close to your base so you can land there to refuel and re-arm.

When you fly these missions, take advantage of NATO defenses and avoid flying near Russian ones, if you flew the Carrier Ops missions - you will know where the Russian defenses are, because they are the same.

Another thing - Novorossijsk runway is VERY short, be careful landing there, I ended up in the sea more than once.

These had been ready for a few days now, but, I had a some problems that delayed me a bit posting them ...

I made both packs early this year and the second I updated a month ago, I did not change the missions, but because they are now 1.1.1 they fly differently.

One mission had a pair of F-15 escorting 2 SEAD and 2 strike Tornadoes on a mission to drop two bridges – now three F-15 escort 4 SEAD and 2 flights of 2 Strike Tornadoes, a strike package of 11!

Missions have 7 or 8 maybe 9 enemy fighters – you won’t have to face them all – and when flying over NATO forces they will get shot at a lot of times.

An AWACS is on a good orbit to provide you with early warning – friendly SAM and flak are dense enough to defeat an attack, shoot down one flight of enemy ground attack fighters and the next one MAY not even reach its target.

Now, don’t fly over the Russian zone of control like you are walking on a park because SA-300, BUK or KUB are there waiting for you – and Tunguskas, OSA9 and Tor will engage you at low level.

If your mission requires you to go near, there are SEAD flights on their way to disable those SAM units.

I flew all these missions, half of them I finished after ALT-J to my wingman –sometimes, my mission failed because the strike flight decided that they better turn tail and go home …
