Double Dragon Mission #7 tasked a three-ship from the 440th VFW to strike the PRC main carrier group with AGM-84 Harpoons. The hope was to spot the carrier on the FCR for a coordinated strike, which did not work from our relatively safe stand-off distance of 45 nm. We took our chance and managed to sink three of the supporting cruisers, leaving the carrier all alone now. We get him next flight.
Just after launching the Harpoons, we picked up a spike from Su-30s on our flank. Fortunately we already had element spacing and quickly coordinated an engagement with staggered runs in from each wingman in the flight, hitting one and diving the other away.
The flight was a fun mix of air to surface and air to air engagements all wrapped up on about a 90 minute flight.
