The job was to focus on destroying the Low Blow as a minimum and ignore the SA-11 battalion on the coast.
No2 was fully set for AA and 3 had to HARMs for the attack. I had one HARM as backup. As it turned out 3 couldn't get the Low Blow to emit on him, even though I was in the threat zone. I therefore fired my HARM and destroyed the Low Blow (and probably everything else as they were very close together).
2 kept a close eye on MiG 29s scrambling from the local AB and destroyed one. He was guilty of target fixation, got too low and the waiting HQ battalion and it's SA-13s shot him down.
Jaguar 71 joined us on the way home and we RTB'd safely.
Lesson Learned: We need to read up on the RWR symbology for this aircraft.
