August 1st, 2013
Server: 42 South
Map: Hawaii
Air to Air combat: none
Air to Ground combat:
Ground defenses on northern Honolulu range X all (around 6 AAA and SAMs), guns, in the VFA-201 Rafale
Udlaoys off Honolulu x 5, rockets, VFA-165 CAG F-14D
Udaloys off Maui x 11, 500lb bombs and rockets, VFA-165 CAG F-14D.

Total armed ground targets killed: 6
Total armed ships killed: 16

Losses: 1 Rafale, to Udlaoy SAM fire.

Misc combat duties: Provided Suppression of Air and Naval defenses in support of bombing runs made by acf492, who was flying a B-52, then proceeded to escort him to Maui. Landed my Tomcat on the CVN-82 at the end of the mission.
After a fellow pilot crashed from fuel exhaustion, I scrambled the HSC-37 AS565 Panther, and simulated rescue operations.

Misc. notes: The server was unusually laggy. This may have discouraged air combat.
Total combat time: 2 hours 10 minutes.

August 2nd, 2013
Took another crack at the 42 South ranges, this time with Maverick, and later acf. We worked our way from Lihue to Kona, and killed everything.
I flew a BNI Pack Su-25, and then the HQPGAC F/A-18F.
Total Air to Ground kills:
Udlaoys: 14 killed, in the Frogfoot and the Hornet, with rockets and bombs
Ground defenses, AAA and SAMs: 54, with both planes, all with guns.
Misc non shooting hostile ground targets: 10, with rockets, bombs, and guns.

Losses: None.

Mav did a lot of the work, particularly off Maui with those Udaloys - he got 7 of 'em there. Acf did most of the work around Hawaii itself, in an A-10 and an AH-64. Ground attack with other people is a lot of fun. The server seemed a lot less laggy, and I was able to do a close formation on acf's helo on the way back from the last range to Kona.

Total combat time: 1 hour 30 min.

CP, Stock F/A-18E, 2 Kills, in aggressor F-5E, with guns

All kills against Altaf and CP were in response to fire taken by my aircraft. The fight with Maverick was formal, but negatively impacted by outside interference.

August 11th, 2013
Server: 42 South
Air to Air: Killed Shadow with guns x 2. He was in one of the Ace combat super flankers, I was in a HQPGAC F-16A.
Losses: None.
Air to Ground:
AAA and SAMs X 31, guns, rockets and bombs. First with an F-5E, then an Alpha Jet, followed by a 171st F/A-18C. Most kills were scored with the [VFA-165]F-14D CAG bird.
Udaloy Destroyers X 8, with 500lb bombs and rockets, all the the F-14D
Non firing hostile ground targets X 9 with bombs and rockets, mostly scored by the F-5E.

These kills were scored as part of a series of long range strikes flown with Maverick, then Doomsday joined in. We joined Sanderson around Hawaii, then met up with Hawkstar and Copperhead for additional attacks around Lihue. At any time, between 2 and 5 pilots were attacking at once, quite enjoyable.
A2G losses: killed by AAA once.

November 30th, 2013

Server: The Winchster.
Event: the 323rd battle against the A.R.S.E.

Aircraft Used: 171st F-14D, HQPGAC F/A-18E, Oranleed BrisFit, HQPGAC Typhoon F.2.

Total Ground Targets Destroyed: 181.
AAAX80
SAMX62
UDALOYX8
SHIPX3
TANKX9
OTHERX19

I'm sure I destroyed 142 total ground defences, 80 and 62 are best guesses on the exact split.


Total air to air kills Claimed: 6
5x against Tigershark, he was in the KVAF F-8 and Rafale, I was in the HQPGAC Typhoon.
1X against Dan, I'm thinking. He was in a 323rd Falcon, I was still in the Typhoon.

Losses X 1 to Dave, immediately after I killed Dan.

Big thanks for the 323rd guys for hosting this little event, it was quite a lot of fun.

December 15th, 2013
Server: The Winchster
Group Ground attack
Aircraft used: Stock A-4, HQPGAC F/A-18E
Weapons used: 20MM cannon, rockets, and 250lb bombs.
Total Ground targets destroyed: 107
AAA/SAMs: 87
Udlaoys: 2
Burkes: 1
Tanks: 6
Parked aircraft(hostile, unmanned):4
Misc. other: 7

Once again, thanks to the 323rd guys. There was a small air combat event as well, in which I did not take part, as I was a bit late to the party. Lots of folks got lots of air to ground kills. Fun for the whole family.

-- Sun Dec 29, 2013 5:15 pm --

December 29th, 2013
Stingx's server
Air to ground:
6xBurke destroyers, with rockets and guns, DIF Beaufighters
1xAAA
2xSAM
1xT-80

Air to Air -
3x Stingx, guns. I was in a Beaufighter, he was in a 109.
1x unmanned Bf-109 - I was in a P-51B

The server was super laggy at times, but it was a good concept. Sting nearly killed me once, it might have been a kill if not for the lag.
