Mission Overview:
Viper1 (OCA STRIKE)
Package #: 1852 (Offensive Counter Air)
Pkg-Mission: Strike Benkovac Army Base
Target Area: 4 nm east of Benkovac Town.
Time on Target: 07:50:00
Situation:
Be advised: Intelligence reports a large enemy offensive is in progress, probably with the intent to take Split.
In an effort to obtain air superiority, air command has initiated an Offensive Counter Air operation targeted at the area around Zadar. If everything goes as planned, earlier DEAD raids and fighter sweeps will have suppressed or cleared most of the air defenses in the region allowing us to strike several airbases, search radars and command facilities including your target, Benkovac Army Base.
Intelligence reports the highest impact targets are:
-- Ammo Dump -- 100% operational
-- Radar EW -- 100% operational
-- Barracks -- 100% operational
