Red Star Golden Trident
14 missions for several aircraft over Ukraine from 2022 to… eternity?

Some explanation first.
Since the war began in 2014, I never wanted to bring it into Il2 1946 or any game environment.
The reality was harsh and not for playtime. Or so I thought.
One day in 2023, I returned home from yet another trip across the country and broke the self-imposed taboo.
Maybe it was the effect of seeing the scenes of destruction or I just needed to vent my frustration that accumulated for years.
Whatever. Before unpacking, I sat at my desktop, launched the Il2 1946 BAT JTW
and quickly made a mission where I could pretend to sit in the cockpit of a Su-25 and break something evil on the ground.
I flew the mission and… felt much better. Flight sim therapy, wow!
Then I made another mission. And another. Down the rabbit hole of FMB…

After several months, the result is here.

Red Star Golden Trident: the set of single missions for BAT JTW.


What is there:
    • 14 missions
    • 7 maps
    • over 50 aircraft types, 6 of which are operated by the player
    • many ground and air targets
    • enemy opposition in the form of AAA, SAM, fighters
    • extensive briefings

What’s not there:
    • the “real” history
    • the simulation of the modern air war in all its complexity and lethality

I don't play BAT_JTW......
Just keep it working well for the management of BAT mod. So I tried flying as a test for JTW's maintenance purposes.
I'm curious, however, why doesn't the Su-25(stock ver) have a fire at its tail ?
I've searched multiple YouTube videos for IL-2 1946_Su-25, but I haven't seen any videos of it with engine combustion flames.
Just curious, so I write down a few words.

Thanks for sharing a great campaign.

Thanks, guys.

gunny0134, it's a good question but I never paid attention.
Just to mention a good channel with many Su-25 (real-life) videos:

No, no. I'm not in aviation, just a fan.

I don't use other packs very much besides WAW but nevertheless, I downloaded to try it later.  Certainly looks well designed.

Just to say that it was uploaded to M4T in the BAT section.
