Title: Re: FSX Military Missions with Weapon for FSX

I have done a mission set in Korea in 1953.  It's set up for the Milviz F-86, but you can substitute any Weapon equipped airplane pretty easily.  

Here's a link: http://fscaptain.net/downloads/Mission_1953.zip

Unzip to a temporary folder and copy the files to the appropriate folders inside FSX.  Fly the Intermediate level mission called "F86 Interdiction 21-MAY-53".

To substitute another airplane if you don't have the Milviz F-86 (it's excellent!) do this:

1.  After installing this mod - it has a modified Suwan airbase for you -- pick your airplane, set the time of day you want, and go to RKSW (Suwan) Parking 1.  Save your flight.

2.  Copy your saved flight (you can name it anything) from the "Flight Simulator X Files" folder in your documents folder to the folder "Missions\My Missions\F86 Interdiction 21-MAY-53".  It will be extension .FLT and there will be another file with the same name but extension .WX - copy that one too.

3.  Using Notepad, open the .FLT file you just copied, and go to the bottom.  There's a [resource path] section there.  Replace that with this:

[ResourcePath]
Path=.\Missions\My Missions\F86 Interdiction 21-MAY-53
[ObjectFile]
File=F86 Interdiction 21-MAY-53

4.  Delete the original flight files from the "Missions\My Missions\F86 Interdiction 21-MAY-53" folder:

F86 RKSW 21-MAY-53.FLT
F86 RKSW 21-MAY-53.WX

You will now by flying your airplane in this mission.  If you have a HUD - enjoy your super powers.  The F-86 Sabre by Milviz is more historically accurate.

This is a historically accurate and challenging mission!  Your primary task is interdiction against an armored column heading up the road to reinforce CCF forces attacking Little Nori.   That's hard enough.  But be watching for MIG incursions, and friendly F-86 ground strikes.  After taking out the column you can pursue the MIGs if you can find them, or use 500 pound bombs and your guns to provide CAS to the UN ground troops, but be careful to avoid blue-on-blue and be aware that the CCF side can shoot back.  The nearest emergency airfield is RKSD about 20 miles due south if you're hit.

Good luck!

PS if you choose to use the Milviz F-86 here's a link to a document that will let you adapt Weapon to it in a historically accurate way: http://fscaptain.net/downloads/WeaponforF86.pdf
