Pros:

• Good Coordination between flights
• Vectoring between flights helped create a shield against bandits.
• Mission Concept was good
• Bridge Bombing was cool.
• Coordinated provided to the F-15Es was in the wrong format

Cons:

• Mission briefing was a mess.
• Pilots thought the C-130 was for fuel, and followed it for several minutes while attempting to refuel.
• Static Targets should be considered known locations, and way points should be provided for them.

Additional Notes:

• Curate a list of what type of waypoints an aircraft can accept
• Ensure Command/AWACs have different callsigns
• F14 Flight reported having a waypoint that took them into enemy territory.
