Introduction

Joint Warrior 3 is the 3rd sequel of our Joint Warrior tactical battle series for Digital Combat Simulator, which we started a few months ago in association with both, the 104th Virtual Fighter and Bomber Squadron and the 51st PVO Regiment.

After the success of JW1 and JW2, here we come again for more action inviting DCS pilots across the globe to join us for another night of force on force air combat.

Joint Warrior 3 is the perfect opportunity for those who would like to improve themselves as DCS combat pilots as we will once again have some of the finest pilots out for blood.

Beyond the competition aspect itself, JW is also a great gathering of people sharing the same hobby and an excellent opportunity to forge new friendships, and get close to some of the most iconic squadrons on the DCS scene.

Mission Description

When – Saturday 08 November 2014 at 18:00 Zulu(GMT).

Tankers have been removed while AWACS will still be there

Only ground targets at Sochi/Sukhumi will award points to strikers

Rules of Engagement (ROE)

Battle duration: 3 hours – Once time is up, all pilots must RTB and land safely. Failure to do so will result in a loss.

1 life per pilot. If you crash or get shot down, you will have to exit the server

Strikers hold short for 10mn before takeoff

Red fighters hold short for 5mn before take off (to offset extra miles for Blue fighters)

Stick to the same aircraft, switching aircrafts during the battle is not allowed

Attacking aircrafts on the ground is allowed with cannon or air-to-ground weapons only

if you disconnect, seek an admin on Teamspeak, explain what happened and ask for permission to rejoin

A DCS track will be saved automatically and may be requested for refereeing, if any suspicions or disputes

A fresh reboot is strongly recommended for stability and performance
