Description
Description:
The NVA is pushing into the A Shau Valley from Laos. Stop them.
Send coordinates and positions to SAC or TAC, and respond with B-52s, F-4 Phantoms or F-100 Super Sabres.
This scenario uses the map "A Shau Valley" from UNSUNG. The map has no objects, but looks awesome from higher altitude! Instead custom objects (houses, camps, firebases etc) are spawned dynamically, including night time street lights along the roads of the map.
NOTE: This is a small scale proof-of-concept applying SAC TAC Vietnam framework to another map.

Features
  • Fly trough a realistic map of the A Shau Valley, and bomb the NVA.
  • Spawn a wingman flying fighter/bomber aircraft
  • Optionally, replay any mission with random weather and time of day.
  • High attention to ambience and immersion
  • Custom radio chatter during missions

Known issues
  • Not compatible with mod "SOG AI", it will break the game.
  • Read briefing-> mission notes, and controller/action notes for important info on some aspects of the game.
  • If stuck in "flyby/target" camera mode. Just press "P", "CAPS LOCK" or "." to get back to player view.

@Kirgiz Sure. Thats the way it was back then. This is a video game though.

High attention to ambience and immersion:steamfacepalm:
This apparently means complete immersion in this nightmare, which is powerless to cope with in a fair battle that the United States staged for Vietnam by dropping more bombs than all countries in the Second World War. I can already hear this wild howl of barefoot people dying in agony who were not given a chance.
