Pvt. Zwerger

Dear members of Ahoy World,
 
It is with great sadness that I have to inform you of the passing of @Mikael on Friday July 15.
He was involved in an motorcycle accident and succumbed to his injuries.
 
I know Mikael was a big part of you community and he often talked about how much enjoyed the ARMA sessions he had with you all.
 
I will come back with more information about the funeral arrangements when I get them.
 
**Update
The funeral will be held July 26.
There has also been created a memorial page for Mikael LINK (page is in Norwegian). Here you can light a candle and leave your name ( Tenn et lys ) or write some words in his memory ( Skriv et minneord ) 
 
And thank you all for your kinds words, it is really appreciate. He will truly be missed by all those who were lucky enough to know him  ❤️ 

AhoyWorld vs The USSR  

Situation
In an unexpected series of events last night Russia flipped its name plate during a UN security council meeting and announced to the world it will once again be known as the USSR and closed its borders.
 
The country splintered and land grabs took place. Crimea and a portion of Russia have been acquired by Ukraine and opened to the world for assistance in the new lukewarm war. A Frontline has formed on the new borders and a multi nation coalition named "AhoyWorld" is charged with fighting this new old enemy in the Caucasus region.
 
Checkpoints and FARPS have been established across the border, the USSR has been sending artillery, jets, helicopters and small numbers of armoured units across to attack the AW checkpoints. Fortunately for us the USSR has a major logistical problem preventing any major action for now.
 
24/7 airborne patrols have been ordered to combat these attacks.
 
Mission
Conduct a border patrol.

Pacific Confrontation
Situation
Following yesterdays engagements all governments involved have been in intense talks. Neither side is declaring war, merely a dispute. 
During the fighting yesterday another submarine and group of patrol boats slipped past our sensors, raided and seized control of a US volcanic research facility on the island of Anatahan.
 
All governments involved have been hush hush about why a volcanic research facility would be a military target. Fortunately for us we are in the chain of command and know that the volcanic research facility is just a cover for a missile test site. The facility was set up for testing of cruise missile intercept capability's of the NASAMS system, we have to assume the Chinese now control said system.
 
A Type 071 Amphibious Transport Dock and its escort, a type 052B Destroyer is making haste for the island. Presumably to reinforce the Chinese defences and to load the larger items from the facility. We have observed helicopters flying from the ships to the island with sling loaded cargo, presumably smaller Chinese defensive systems.
Mission
Retake the facility with minimal damage to infrastructure & prevent the incoming amphibious landing ship from arriving at the island.
Remember outside our exclusion zone is international waters/airspace.

Georgian Intervention pt.3

Situation
All strikes along the coast were successful and a US carrier group has safely entered the Black sea.
 
Sochi-Adler was hit hard by cruise missile strikes, Russian forces withdrew allowing Georgian forces to push and take the airfield allowing our ground based jets to operate closer to the objective. 
 
The majority of Russia's high readiness jets have been destroyed leaving a low number of poorly armed & older jets to fight. With active anti shipping missiles destroyed the Russian reserves are being shipped into Gelendzhik through a known shipping route. This is a major threat to the carrier group, they can not be allowed to make landfall. 
 
F-14's & F/A-18's will head for the ships while helicopters will launch from the Tarawa and with support from ground based jets head to the port and destroy the infrastructure that would allow the offloading of these lethal weapons.
Mission
Destroy Russian supply ships and port infrastructure.

Georgian Intervention pt.1

 
Situation
Over the past 3 months tensions between Russia and Georgia have reignited. A series of attacks of unknown origin took place on the Russia Georgian border. 
Shortly after a build up of Russian aircraft was detected along the border region and intercepted Russian communications revealed a plan to attack so called “terrorist strongholds” in Georgia. 
 
The United States of America decided to send a squadron of various aircraft to assist Georgian forces in the defence of their airspace. The American squadron is stationed at Kutaisi with a squadron of Georgian Frogfoots.   
 
On the 19th of May the Russian air force conducted strikes on targets within Georgia. Due to the American presence at Kutaisi steps were made to ensure the security of forces while on the ground and a Patriot system was set up. 2 of 6 Su-34’s detected in Georgian airspace were shot down.
 
A swift response is needed and a plan has been drawn up to strike the forces responsible for the attack. On the morning of the 21st a joint strike force will take off from Kutaisi and conduct a precision strike on Nalchik, a Russian airfield that's being used as a staging ground for incursions into Georgian airspace.
 
Mission
Destroy the Su-34’s that took part in the attacks on the 19th with as little collateral damage as possible.

Flight plan 
 
We will be keeping to a flight area on a pre planned route. You may leave this area when in combat with air or ground forces, with a swift return to the area once combat is complete.
 
(The following is subject to change based on threats we encounter)
 
Take off and fly to Waypoint 2 in as close a formation as we can safely manage. From Waypoint 2 CAP flights will separate from the strike package and take the lead as we cross the Russian border. Once at Waypoint 3 the Strike package will hold in an orbit while SEAD flights push to Waypoint 4 and disable enemy SAM site(s) Once SEAD mission is complete SEAD flights will return to Waypoint 3 and hold in an orbit. With SAM threats neutralised the Strike package will commence its run as SEAD flights return to waypoint 3.  Once all strikes are complete all forces will regroup at waypoint 3 and return to base (Waypoint 1) in formation. CSAR will operate from a temporary FARP recovering any pilot that is shot down or crashes.  
 
Required Skills:
Airfield Take off & landing Radio usage (setting and switching channels)  
 
An attempt at a Tacview debrief will take place after the GN.
 
 

Would you like to take part in or run a AW DCS gamenight? If yes what type of mission, what day and time. Poll is up for a day, keep in mind arma GN will take priority so if it’s a Friday, Saturday Sunday at normal GN time we would have to wait for an opening. 
 
As a test to see how we do we could hold an escalating terror gamenight as starting point before custom missions/campaigns are built. 

I'll have to play more often I leave plenty of medivac missions behind me

Would be cool to have some dynamic/random medevac missions in the helicopter range. Its kinda awkward to intentionally crash just to get a medevac mission when you are solo on the server 🙃
