שלום חברים,

משימה מס'10 תתרכז באיתור של צי הפלישה הגרמני שעד כה הם מצליחים לחמוק מגילוי.

על פי ההערכות של המודיעין הם ינסו לבצע תפיסת ראש גשר באזור של שדה התעופה Retimo, היכן שיש עדיין נוכחות די גדולה של כוחות צנחנים גרמנים, מחופרים בתוך הואדי ממערב לבסיס.

נתראה בשעה 21:30 בטימספיק לתדריך.

Salute!
ViFF

שכחתי להזכיר, כמובן שיהיה לנו הרבה לוחמה אווירית מעל מרכז האי. הגרמנים כנראה ישלחו לשם הרבה מסרשמיטים 109 וגם 110 כדי לתת לצנחנים שלהם חיפוי אווירי.

נא לאשר הגעה כדי שהמפקד EAF_Classic ישריין לנו מספיק מטוסים.
תודה!

Here it is gents

Seats confirmed as follows

102nd - 12
IAF - 8
GIAP - 3(4)
EAF - 8

We have 3 targets

1) Central area CAP - 8xHurricane, 4xGladiator + 8xFulmar
We must protect our units which are making a counter-attack against Rethymno airfield. Our units are in sectors AM9, AO9 and AQ9. AQ9 is right next to the airfield and contains our artillery which is bombarding the airfield. In AO9 we are driving trucks along the road to get into firing position on the west side of the airfield, its risky but an action which we must do. Protecting these trucks as they advance is a top priority.

2) Paratrooper attack - 2xFairey Battles and 4 or 8xFulmar
The Fulmars taking off from Maleme are to bomb and climb away to join the CAP. The Fulmars taking off from the CV will either have a droptank or bombs. If its a droptank climb and join the CAP, if its bombs drop them on the paras and then climb. The Fairey Battles takeoff from Heraklion and are to target 20mm AAA and artillery on the airfield at Rethymno.

3) Shipping search and destroy - 4xDB7 + 2xSwordfish
We are sending out two pairs of DB7 which are tasked to search the seas between Crete and Santorini, we have two search areas. South-south-east of Santorini and south-west of Santorini. Once we can be sure nothing is within 50kms of Crete we will push our search out further towards Milos. In the west we are putting 2xSwordfish to protect the coastline Once we have made a sweep out to 40kms we will head to Kythira.

Here are the missions and aircraft for each squadron.

102nd - 12 a/c
2xDB7 - 113sqn - 1xtorpedo - air supply egypt
Grid search columns AX to BN between Crete and Santorini. An axis merchant ship IS in the area and approaching Crete it must be found and sunk. You are armed with a torpedo for this task.

2xFairey Battle - 33rd Mira - 6x250lb - Heraklion/Heraklion
Takeoff as quickly as possible and head direct to Rethymno, bomb the 20mm AAA and artillery with just 2 pairs of bombs each. Then head out to sea to search for the axis merchant ships, this is what you have saved your last bombs for. If ships are found then attack at once, if not fly home via Rethymno and drop your last pair of bombs on axis infantry on the airfield

4xFulmar - ????sqn - droptank or 2x250lb bombs - CV/CV
Take your time and use the catapault. Head direct to Rethymno. These are very very precious fighters please take good care of them. Stay high and stay fast, only commit to an attack if you can win it. If in any doubt disengage and save the navy fighters.

4xHurricane Mk.Ib - 274sqn - Maleme/Maleme
Take-off at once and climb to 7000mtrs over Rethymno, you are the top cover flight. Once at altitude go to low power and save fuel. Your primary target are high level 109s.

IAF - 8 a/c
