Historical Mission
Our new squadron of F-86 Sabres has secretly arrived in theatre, and we are going to give the enemy MiG-15s a run for their money. On paper both aircraft are evenly matched but the F-86 has never been tested in live combat against an enemy.
Today we will have the element of surprise. Our aircraft look like MiGs and the enemy will not be expecting an aircraft with a swept wing to be USAF. To further the deception, you have been given F-80 Shooting Star callsigns.
Make the most of this advantage by flying like F-80s: so don't climb above 25,000 ft and don't fly faster than 450kts until you are ready to fight. Once the firing starts the enemy will fight back!
