Operation Black Mamba

Chapter 2: TMI

Summary:

Just another TMI chapter. I should have added this two days ago, but I forgot to. 🤦🤦

Notes:

In case there are any aviation geeks reading this fanfic, here are the load-out of the F-22A Raptors, F-35A Lightning IIs and EA-18G Growlers. 😛
The Raptors are carrying all of their payload internally, and the Growlers are carrying all of their payload externally, but the Lightning IIs are carrying some of their payload internally, some externally.

Chapter Text

F-22A Raptor

F-35A Lightning II

EA-18G Growler

* To put it simply, if you install the Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) guidance kit on a 2000-pound Mk-84 bomb, you'll get yourself a GBU-31. 😄

** Again, if you install the Wind Corrected Munitions Dispenser (WCMD) guidance kit on a CBU-87 Combined Effects Munition (CEM), you'll get yourself a CBU-103. 😄

Notes:

Edit on Dec 26, 2020: Just like how I did with "The Wild Weasels", I also corrected the jammers they're using - instead of one AN/ALQ-99 plus two AN/ALQ-249 NGJ-MBs, it would be just three AN/ALQ-99s. (Yeah, I definitely shot myself in the foot when I first included the NGJ. 😂)
Also, MiSana were supposed to be deployed to Japan for ~1.5 year, not 1. I originally wanted to type 1.5, but for whatever reasons, I only typed 1. 🤦
Edit on Dec 27, 2020: After a quick re-read, I think it's a good idea to give a more concrete distance between the EA-18Gs and MiG-29s. 🙂
