Situation

Background Information

An American Carrier task-force has been sent onto the med to support allied efforts against the Germans and Italians. Our objective is to strike multiple land/port based targets and disrupt their efforts in the region.

Friendly Forces

Carrier Based Air Group
- 4x F4Fs
- Up to 9 SBDs

Enemy Forces

- Luftwaffe air support
- Italian naval vessels
- Land based German forces.

Mission

Tasking

Perform bombing runs on several key objectives in the AO to disrupt the enemy war effort;
- Sink the enemy naval group in port
- Bomb several ports and army bases
- Bomb several factories producing ammunition
- Perform a bombing raid on the enemy airfield deep in enemy territory

End-state

Objectives destroyed, air group back at carrier.

Execution

Commander's Intent

Friendly air groups will be coordinated by their flight leaders in squadrens of 4. 1 CAP and 2 CAS. Objectives will have us disrupt Axis operations in the area. Our specific tasking will be determined and briefed in operation.

Tasks and Sequencing

This is a carrier based operation. All pilots are recommended to not only familiarise themselves with the aircraft. But also practice carrier landings on the Nimitz prior to the operation.

We will have waves of air assaults until our objectives are completed or the enemy air presence gets too high.

Administration/Logistics

Resupply

Resupply, Rearm and repair of aircrafts will be coneucted on the carrier.

Medical

If you go down in the ocean ping zeuses for "naval forces to collect you"

If you go down over enemy territory aim to exfil to the south coast. But DO NOT approach the coastal cities as these are Axis strongholds.

Fire Support Plan

AA Support from the carrier and its escorts

Close Air Support

You are the air support
