Witches Hollo, Caucasus Map Blue: A-10A/C (no TGPs), Su-25A/T, Ka-50, UH-1H, JTACs; Red: Combined Arms F10 All, COOP, Spring, Overcast, Start 0540 23MAY --- Summary Red forces are building a forward base. There is a large armored structure, and three smaller camps all within a two mile radius. Find this site and clear it of all Red buildings and units. Red transport helicopters are flying in supplies and are rumored to be bringing IGLAs -- don't let these helicopters land and deliver their cargo! --- Blue Task To win: clear out Witches Hollo of the headquarters building and three camps. The Red Headquarters is a large white building and the camps are white armed houses guarded by watchtowers. The Blue Bullseye is Witches Hollo. An illumination bomb marks the loaction. Cloud base is at 7,300', top at 8,100'. The Red forces are limited to armored personnel carriers and transport vehicles, with truck mounted ZU-23 AAA for anti-air defense. IGLA teams are expected to arrive on Mi-8 transport helicopters. Kill these helicopters before they can offload these nasty IGLA guys; it takes them about five minutes to offload. An IGLA unit is known to be at each of the three Red camps and headquarters. Blue supplies are also limited. No TGPs, Some A-10C loadouts include GBU-12s and require a Combined Arms JTAC for lasing. You will have to fly under the clouds to accomplish this mission. Follow the canyons to where they open up at Witches Hollo. The area is defended by AAA. Red ADA missile systems are not in the Witches Hollo area. There is a Red BUK near Kareli -- this is NOT a mission objective. There is a Red SA-3 site south of the border, about ten miles south of FARP London. This older technology is still a lethal missile threat; it is NOT a mission objective. --- Combined Arms There are Blue armor groups in the hills surrounding Witches Hollo. Use these units to attack the Red compounds and to act as JTAC. Some A-10Cs have GBU-12s. You will need to provide: target coordinates, your laser heading to the target, and laser on for the bombs to guide. A-10Cs need to program the target coordinates, approach on the laser heading for the bombs to detect the laser reflection and drop with CCRP. Beware enemy ATGMs. Back away over a hill, or move to shake them off of you. --- Helicopter pilots - FARPs on 127.5 MHz FARP Paris, UH-1H - fly east, follow the river for ten miles to known enemy outposts. Watch for ZU-23 AAA fortifications guarding bridges. Witches Hollo is 14 miles east of your FARP. FARP Dallas, UH-1H - fly northwest. Take the canyon north for seven miles then west for another six where there are known AAA sites guarding bridges. We have some Blue JTAC Hummers along this route. FARP London, Ka-50 - you are twenty two miles south of FARP Dallas!You are on a Blue double-secret forward base. There is a Red SA-3 missile site at the southern end of Witches Tit Lake. You are authorized to attack this southern threat. --- Designer Notes This mission is based upon the 1961 movie release of 'Alakazam The Great' -- A monkey king who learns the secrets of magic goes on a spree and causes no end of aggravation for the gods, who finally imprison him. In order to make up for all the trouble he's caused, he is sent on a mission to accompany a prince who is the son of the gods on a journey through a land filled with dangers, monsters, cannibals and demons. - Written by frankfob2@yahoo.com, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054265/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_pl The combat area in Witches Hollo is reminiscent of the scene where Alakazam jumps off the cliff into the lake to find a secret world underneath!
