This is an AAR for one of the missions in my LMR Ground Attack Pack (http://iplaster.net/rugg/lmr_ground_attack.zip). These missions are for use with the LockOn Mission Randomizer (http://members.cox.net/ruggbutt/LMR.zip).

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD000.jpg

Beagle and I taxi to the runway and line up for takeoff.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD001.jpg

I request permission from the tower and we spool the engines up to 80% with the brakes on. All systems are functional so we firewall the throttles and begin our roll. We're both loaded heavy so we use full flaps. 3/4ths of the way down the runway we're wheels up.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD002.jpg

Climbing out to 3500 meters, visibility is 23 miles with light cloud cover and light ground fog. Winds are nominal and I'm at 94% thrust at 10 meters/sec nose up.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD003.jpg

I start receiving faint "beeps" on my SPO-15 (Berioza) indicating aircraft to my 1 o'clock. Shortly thereafter AWACS tells me that there are German Mig29's returning from CAP on that heading. I tune my radio to their frequency and hear the pair of them lining up on an attack with a lone KA-50. One of the pilots calls defensive as the chopper pilot fires a Vikhr.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD029.jpg

The radar guided missile causes the chopper to go defensive. The Vikhr passes close by the Mig and explodes behind him. There's no telling if it was laser or IR guided, either way it was a close call for the Mig. The Mig pilot had guts as he kept his radar lock all the way till his missile impacted.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD030.jpg

The Ka50 didn't get off so lucky.........

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD007.jpg

At 22 clicks from the target area I turn on the Shkval and point the lens at the target area. I select max mag (23x) to see if I can pick out anything thru the haze. I'm still too far out.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD004.jpg

My primary target (KUB site) has been playing possum, I get no warnings on the Berioza until I'm locked up. I call Beagle and tell him "Music On". He's carrying the jammers and shorter ranged Anti-Radar missiles so he gets the pods.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD008.jpg

I switch on the Phantasmagoria pod and my KH-58's (NATO codename Kilter) are automatically selected. There's the KUB site in my HUD, delineated by the target diamond and "KUB" in cyrillic.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD009.jpg

I lock up the KUB site and I hear "Magnum" in my headset. Good 'ol Beagle, he's on top of things and he's got a KH-25MP (NATO codename Kegler) on the way. I press the fire button and my plane lurches to the left as a KH-58 drops from the rails.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD010.jpg

It drops several meters before the motor fires. Then it's on the way to making a KUB radar operator have a really bad day.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD011.jpg

While Beagle fired before I did, my missile has a longer range and more rocket motor so my missile should reach the target (or get shot down) first.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD012.jpg

I hear a launch warning in my headset, I call defensive and pull 6 g's in a left turn to put some distance between myself and the inbound missile.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD015.jpg

Luckily, the KUB radar is destroyed and it's missile now unguided self destructs as Beagle sends another KH-25 towards a Tunguska.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD013.jpg

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD014.jpg

I line up again and I target one of the Tungs painting my a/c. I have one '58 left and off it goes.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD016.jpg

The business end.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD017.jpg

Shack!

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD018.jpg

I roll out of the target area to set up for another run.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD020.jpg

I select Vikhrs and turn on the Shkval. I set the TD box for 10 meters (average size for an armored vehicle) and I lock up a launcher vehicle. I make sure I'm within firing range then I turn on my laser. I only have 60 seconds before the laser overheats (and shuts off) so I have to time my attack precisely. LA pops up on the HUD and on the Shkval so I know I'm ok to fire. Vikhr away.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD021.jpg

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD022.jpg

The Vikhr spirals towards it's target, leaving a telltale smoke trail.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD023.jpg

I ran the laser on the last run till it automatically shut off (to prevent burning it out) and with this quick turn around it may not have cooled well enough to give me another 60 seconds. There's one soft skinned vehicle left in the target area and I turn on the laser and fire a Vikhr. The laser shuts down (LR starts blinking in the HUD) and my Vikhr is blind. It explodes harmlessly in the surf.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD028.jpg

Beagle runs in to take out the remaining vehicles and launchers. When it's all said and done nothing survives our attack.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD033.jpg

Having climbed back to altitude I fly over the target area, pure carnage! Beagle tells me to break right as tracers fly past my aircraft. There are 3 Molniya patrol boats heading towards the target area at full speed and they're firing their A/A guns at us.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD037.jpg

I change my TD box size to 60 meters and lock my Shkval on one of the Molniyas.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD034.jpg

My laser has cooled down so I wait till I'm in range and I turn it on. I fire four Vikhrs as quickly as I can pull the trigger.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD036.jpg

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD035.jpg

All four Vikhrs hit within 3 seconds of each other.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD038.jpg

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD039.jpg

I have no idea how much damage I've done to the Molniya, but I feel better that I damaged him. I don't take kindly to being shot at and this is my way of expressing myself. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif I'm Winchester so I tell Beagle to form up and I jettison the launcher tubes as I climb back to altitude for the ride home.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD040.jpg

The flight home was uneventful, as AWACS called us clear all the way home. Looks like the German Migs and Phantoms did a great job on CAP. Beagle and I fly to intercept the glideslope as we approach final. Flaps and gear down and locked.

http://iplaster.net/rugg/LOMAC_SEAD041.jpg

Touchdown and chutes deployed, it doesn't get any better than this. No holes in the a/c and cold beer waiting for me in the O-Club.

Ruggbutt, those screen shots are bootiful,

What pooter setup, specs are you using? Im looking at buying a new PC as a graduation present for myself next spring which will be used mostly for Lockon and IL2 and would love graphics like that??

I have an FX-57, 2 gigs DDR and a 7800GTX. The '57 is o/c'd to 3.02ghz. I'm using a Thermalright XP-90c heatsink (http://www.extremeoverclocking.com/reviews/cooling/Thermalright_XP-90C_1.html) and a Panaflow 90mm fan to keep the processor cool. Idles at 38C, never seen more than 49C at full load.

I also have my config file for LOMAC modified as well as the sunlight color file.<div class="ev_tpc_signature">
