Good mission, I should note the Horne is in DLG variation instead of CG variation like she should be.

An excellent scenario! It's packed with objectives and the actions required to complete them. There’s air combat, ASW operations, and strikes against ground targets. From a realism perspective, it’s also quite solid. The fact that Kiev doesn’t use its air group is a flaw of the game’s AI, not the scenario itself.

That's less than ideal. Partially why I don't put too much effort into the missions when this game is still so feature-incomplete and in flux with changes. I figured that one day I'll re-make them all once we have a full game here.

Well, the new update really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ this mission over. The new dive attack profile that low level attacks default to causes your harriers to slam straight into the ground as they try to pull out of their dives, so you effectively have single-use planes unless you can figure out some way to get them to survive a high-altitude drop against a SAM site. Soviet defensive ECM seems to have been beefed up as well. Previously I could reliably get a Harpoon or two through to the enemy ships. Now they never get close.

I'm happy to report it loads and plays great. Thanks so much for giving us this great mission, and
the dedication to see it through. /salutes

If this one doesn't work I give up.
