Flight Role: OCA Strike
Jackal 51: "Pilot's name" AA=1 AG=0 EJT
Jackal 52: "Pilot's name" AA=0 AG=0 EJT
Jackal 53: "Pilot's name" AA=0 AG=0 EJT
Plan was to go in low with Durandals once the SA-17 threat was dealt with, but a flood of Mig29S made even that impossible.
In hindsight:
1: F-15Cs need to be human pilots so they focus on the true threats
2: Mission should have been aborted when the threat turned out to be much higher than expected
3: DEAD should have been a mission all on its own before the OCA Strike
4: Standoff weapons, although less exciting, would have been far more effective
