Hi everyone,

Here are the briefings for the last mission of 2024!!!

//// Mission#4 ///// of the campaign and first episode of the ///// KanalKampf chapter /////

RAF

July, 14 1940.

15H00.

Since the collapse of the French army, and the signing of an armistice on June, 22 we are now alone against the invading German forces.

The Battle of Britain had begun.

The Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine have been harassing our convoys sailing in the Channel for several days.
These convoys are vital to the war effort and to the supply of the population.

The orders from high command were clear the RAF had to protect the convoys.

The CW6 convoy, code name BREAD is currently cruising off the cliffs of Dover (AY.23) heading west.

Numerous enemy aircraft take off and gather over Pas-De-Calais.
Wait for take-off clearance then begin patrolling and protecting the convoy area.

The Chain-Home radar stations will contact you by radio and guide you towards the enemy.
It seems that the Germans are organising several attacks to try to divide our forces, so be extremely vigilant.

Remember, a lone pilot is a dead pilot! Stay close to your leader, watch your wingman, and only dive at the enemy when you are sure you have the advantage.

God save the King and the British Empire!!!

July, 14 1940.

15H00.

Since the collapse of the French army, and the signing of an armistice on 22 June 1940.
Our hands are free for the final defeat of Great Britain, the last obstacle to our total victory!

For several days we had been harassing all the convoys trying to cross Pas de Calais Strait.
We are trying to slow down the British war effort as much as possible, and we are also forcing the RAF to protect their ships... in this way we hope to exhaust their resources of planes and pilots.

A British convoy is now heading South-West from the cliffs of Dover (AY.23).

Our bombers are preparing several attacks against it.

1) JG 51 and ZG 26 as a close escort :
