Hi all!

The ready times for the EH-60C Quick Fix seem off. 20hrs for a ferry mission and 20hrs for an offensive ECM mission.

Also, should it take 21hrs to load 2 bombs onto, route plan, and brief the aircrew of, an F-117A? I understand that it's supposed to be only used at night but still, to lock in it's availability with a 21hr turnaround time seems a bit much.

Cheers!

Added a request to adjust EH-60C ready times.

F-117's generally flew 1 sortie per night in every conflict they contributed too. If you read some of the post Gulf War assessments one of the bigger criticism was a very slow and tedious mission planning process. (Conduct of Gulf War to Congress is a great place to start).

If you can find any data supporting more than one sortie please do post.

Thanks!

Mike

I had read something similar to that. Anyway, fair enough.

Thanks for the EH-60C check too

Fixed the EH-60C. Also reduced the F-117 ready time to 20hrs so that you can fly up to 4hr missions without 'skewing' the launch times for each day.
