Hey guys! Today's video is all about Flak Suppression, a mission type and tasking for tactical fighter aircraft that has been lost of the annals of history as war fighting in the skies has changed and evolved over the years. Flak Suppression as a doctrine and tactic was developed by the US Navy, Marine Corps, and US Army Air Forces in the Pacific Theatre of World War 2 where aircraft were forces to fight at lower altitudes over geographically isolated targets. We will explore how these tactics changed and evolved from World War Two to the Korean War, and into the Vietnam War where these initial Flak Suppression Tactics evolved into what we now know as Wild Weasels, Iron Hand, and Modern SEAD and DEAD Tactics.
This Video Will also cover how to set up flak suppression in the Mission Editor via Triggers, as well as go over how to fly a Flak Suppression Mission in the cockpit employing both Unguided Rockets from LAU-3 Rocket Pods, and CBU-52 Cluster Bombs!
