Description
Operation Backslash - The Primevan Campaign Part 3

Operation Backslash takes place immediately following the events of Operation Primevan Shield and Operation Sandrift (playing them first is highly recommended if you care about story).

In this mission, you will take on the role of Backslash Company mercenaries, hired to support the Primevan Rebel Forces (PRF) against PALA by their enigmatic client. Operation Backslash offers a shorter, more focused experience centred on ground strikes, where your primary objective is to assist the PRF in undermining PALA's control over the eastern regions of the country.

Play Order: Operation Primevan Shield -> Operation Sandrift -> Operation Backslash -> Operation Downfall -> Operation Obscura -> Operation Crossfire -> Operation Endgame

Featured livery: Rocketman_02's Akula (RNG) - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3288850038&searchtext=

@MysticDaedra It's actually not a bug with either. There's a set number of planes in storage for the AI to use (set by the mission maker I guess), and normally in missions more are produced over time by factory buildings, however in this one there's no friendly factories so no replacements being created and eventually they run out.

I adjusted the load out of the enemy aircraft and added PRF reinforcements to assist the player, hopefully that helps :)

the planes that need to be intercepted to advance the mission can land and rearm, but in doing so the game counts them as defeated. The result is that if you cant immediately ace-combat-protagonist 4 revokers and 1 or 2 probable compasses simultaneously, they will harass you well into the end of the mission from 30km out. This is also usually when the carrier runs dry of ifrits, meaning that you have to somehow fly halfway to vigil cay amidst 6 enemy fighters with no backup.

After a while the friendly AI stops flying around/doing anything on single player. Probably a game bug, but thought I'd mention it in case there is a bug in the mission. Seems to start after eliminating the counterattack on sandrift.
