I'll note that the Buccaneers used in similar roles didn't take any casualties  Unfortunately there are only 4 airworthy examples today so probably not a viable choice for future mercs. Also I'd like to go on the pilot roster for whatever, callsign "Drop-Bear" edit: fuuuck, I skipped past all those posts about the Bucc and now I feel stupider than ususal thatbastardken fucked around with this message at 22:50 on Apr 23, 2017 |

Quinntan posted:Four airworthy, but how hard can it be to bring an aircraft that is in taxi-worthy condition to flight-worthy condition? Well, with tens of millions of dollars and a casual disregard for "crew safety" and "government" "regulations", not that hard at all.

Supporting Operation Black Diamond, but you've got two elements named Frogger Flight which should probably be cleared up.

the BLFM CAS package is my preference - the A-10 might be a little vulnerable but it's better than the SK60s, and those f16s and drones look mighty tasty. I don't like the boat much, and the euro fighter package upgrades existing fighters which leaves people further down the roster waiting longer.

quote:Dropbear let loose a string of profanity as her bulky gloves caused her to fumble the screwdriver she was using to tighten the case of the altimeter in her nav station. Whatever Saudi princeling had been flying her and Slightly Mad's Tornado before them had probably never taken it above 10,000 feet, and sure as hell had never flown it in conditions like those at Provd Base, where the cold made instruments stick and fluids freeze up. As a Queenslander she was used to feeling the cold away from home, but this place was literally lethal for the unprotected. The Hayerd-Gunes maintenance crews didn't like her tinkering, but seeing as they were all huddling around a heater in their quarters she figured they could go gently caress themselves. About the only good thing about the gig with Mitsuhashi so far was that the money kept coming on time - the quarters, the food and the attitude they gave their contractors were all basically an insult. She briefly considered what her grandfather would have thought about her going to work for 'the loving Japs' but considering the old bastard had never been closer to Japan than the northern suburbs of Brisbane before driving into oncoming traffic while drunk she decided he could go spin in his grave. She swore again as her parka snagged on an exposed screw. This was shaping up to be a long deployment slightlymad, we need nose art. I suggest a bloody-mouthed koala in a straitjacket edit:

Currently preferring Half-rear end, although leaving the Mamba alive is scary I don't like the reports from simulation about engaging it. Let's just run this mission by the numbers and give a good first impression to the new bosses. Also I looked up the Iris-T and that is a cool loving missile.
