Heinkel full mission

[cripplehawk]

 

Basically a complete sortie of a Heinkel bombing group.

It's a bit boring. But there is combat but it is not like those Hollywood film

types....It's more grounded.  This mission was however poorly executed. I panicked but also the Luftwaffe decided to give us

BF-110 for Escort instead of the BF-109s which caused problems later on....
