Objective: Provide aircover in support of other operations taking place so that they can safely take out enemy SAMs. A secondary objective of this operation is one of clean-up, as in destroying any remaining SAM's that haven't already been taken out.
Vehicles Used:
1xSquadron of F/A-19 Ospreys in ground attack configuration will be on station to target additional SAMs when they are identified.
3xSquadrons of F/A-19 Ospreys in their air superiority load out will conduct CAP over Maywar to search and destroy any enemy aircraft while also escorting the Ospreys designated to take out SAMs.
(2 squadrons will conduct CAP while 1 squadron will provide fighter cover for the ground attack Ospreys.)
@StugnaATGM
After taking the 3rd screenshot, I will tap the "take another screenshot button" as quick as I possibly can in the hopes that the game will allow me to take another screenshot before it fully registers the fact that I hit the 3-screenshot limit. It doesn't always work, and I will sometimes have to repeat the process a few times.
So yeah, the part limit for the challenge was said to be 300 parts, and I may have gone quite a bit over that without realizing it. I'll blame it on the cockpit
@StugnaATGM
My challenge plane (which will be completed soon) might be going over the part limit because the cockpit of my plane is a two-seater and doing the cockpit interior has added a lot of parts to the build. I'm sorry in advance.
@SIRCOMMANDER031
I wish I said this earlier, but this is a very nice plane for this challenge, I like the lore of how you gave a third generation jet better electronics to compete with 80's jets. This is a very capable aircraft that should be able to keep things smooth sailing until I can post my plane (which is taking longer than expected due to the cockpit(, but I'm rambling a bit here. VERY NICE PLANE!!!
I’m finished with the airframe of my plane, I still need to do the cockpit though. BTW, this plane can carry A LOT of weapons, so operations where lots of weapons are required shouldn’t be a problem.
Can I change the rate of fire of the gun, I feel that it’s too slow as I’ve tried getting gun kills with it, but it’s low rate of fire often results in the plane flying between the bullets.
@NARGII
Thanks, getting the shape for this bomber was a huge pain at times, along with the cockpit work, seeing as I couldn't mirror the whole plane due to part connection issues. I'm glad that you like this plane.
@StugnaATGM
Can we please do a challenge involving 4th gen fighters, my personal favorite of your challenges to participate in was the second war challenge (against snowstone) where we got to build jets with missiles.
I know the challenge doesn't have a bomber component to it, but I was already mostly done with this plane by the time I realized this, so sorry for violating the rules.
@SIRCOMMANDER031
Yeah, I was thinking that for the war effort, best to re-use airframes as often as possible so that we don't use up resources building a new plane. I figured that my plane could easily transition to ground attack now that fighters are more advanced than it.
@StugnaATGM
I haven't commented or done much in a while, especially with this challenge, but can you relegate my (only) entry to be a CAS/Ground attack aircraft, as it probably can't match jet fighters that the enemy are now producing.
@NARGII
I'm currently working on a stealth (ish, I'm not an expert on making stealth aircraft or what makes a stealth aircraft stealthy) bomber, though I don't know how long it will take for me to complete and release as I'm in college right now.
@Hiimakeplanes
But aren’t 4.5 gen fighters still a bit too new for this challenge? IDK
@Hiimakeplanes
Yeah, I don’t think that’s allowed for this challenge
YES!
+2HERMAN THE GERMAN SHERMAN IS BACK!
@StugnaATGM
Where can I access the Tomcat, so I can play around with it a bit?
Also, isn't the F-14 classified as being a 4th generation fighter?
@StugnaATGM
+1Also, I kind of feel bad about dogfighting F-14's in this war, it's one of my favorite aircraft.
@StugnaATGM
Good, it would be kind of humiliating if my aircraft, which clearly have the label "NAVY" could only operate off of landbases.
Do we have a Navy? cause my aircraft is technically a carrier-based plane.
Welp, guess I'll have to do an operation myself.
Operation: Hunter
Objective: Provide aircover in support of other operations taking place so that they can safely take out enemy SAMs. A secondary objective of this operation is one of clean-up, as in destroying any remaining SAM's that haven't already been taken out.
Vehicles Used:

+1(2 squadrons will conduct CAP while 1 squadron will provide fighter cover for the ground attack Ospreys.)
@SIRCOMMANDER031
Dang, I was going to conduct a SEAD operation using my aircraft, but it looks like you beat me to the punch.
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Oh Yeah! Bombs Away!
@StugnaATGM
It's ready!!!, my first build for the challenge has been uploaded and the plane is ready for action.
@StugnaATGM
+1My challenge plane (which will be completed soon) might be going over the part limit because the cockpit of my plane is a two-seater and doing the cockpit interior has added a lot of parts to the build. I'm sorry in advance.
I think we have the challenge winner sitting right here.
+1Truly the stealthiest plane ever, can't hit what isn't there.
@Otana
Quick question? When will the challenge officially end, and when will results be posted?
You really be making all of the vehicles for this challenge aren't you?
@Walvis
It's ok, take all the time that you need. Don't feel pressured to prioritize this stream over working and studying.

@MobileGamer21
OOF, it really sucks when the game doesn't let you test the plane properly.
@StugnaATGM
Can you change the speed limit for aircraft?
The Mach 1.5 speed limit is very limiting.
What am I looking at?!?!?!?!?
+1Amazing, that cockpit looks like it took a while.
@NARGII
+1Thanks, getting the shape for this bomber was a huge pain at times, along with the cockpit work, seeing as I couldn't mirror the whole plane due to part connection issues. I'm glad that you like this plane.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I think the Mach 1.5 speed limit is too slow.
@StugnaATGM
Under what classification do rocket pods fall under?
Also, I feel like the Mach 1.5 speed limit is a bit too low.
@MobileGamer21
I honestly don't care who wins, I just want to see other people's creations on stream.
@Levi124
Turn it into a boat
@Levi124
The vertical stabilizer looks like a sail on a sail boat.
How many guns do you want?
Levi124: yes
@SIRCOMMANDER031
Watch him earn platinum from his next war challenge.
@NARGII
+1It's been posted, hope you like it.
@StugnaATGM
I look forward to it!

I’ve been waiting forever, I hope the stream/video happens soon. It’s something I’m looking forward to.
Dammit, we lost.
@StugnaATGM
Oh screw it, send whatever I have to attack ground targets so that hopefully they can’t use nukes.
YOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
+1This is a sick trailer. The plane is awesome by the way.

This is why I wish SimplePlanes had a WWII fleet carrier in the game, rather than just USS Tiny and USS Tiny 2.
I was however able to take off from USS Tiny with my airplane.
