Mass Raid — Jets First, Unknowns Referred

The brief the trainee reads

You hold the console at a single defended site. The radar covers a fixed 120-degree sector facing east; tilt is yours to adjust and low tracks may sit under it until you do. Engagement rings are 70 km long, 50 km medium, 20 km short. The system will not permit more than two rockets in the air at once — a third engagement cannot begin until one of the two resolves as hit, kill or miss. Nothing may be fired on unless it is classified Enemy; classification of an Unknown track is referred to the commander, who answers in about fifteen seconds. Air activity is expected from the east within the next few minutes and friendly movement through the sector has not been suspended. Hold the site. You will be judged on what you killed, what you let through, and what you did not shoot.

What counts as success

Pass requires all three jets (TK-101, TK-102, TK-103) destroyed, each engaged at the earliest valid firing solution the system offers, and no more than one UAV allowed to reach the site. Every Unknown track must be referred, and nothing may be fired on that is not classified Enemy — engaging TK-301, TK-302 or TK-303 fails the run regardless of how many hostiles were killed. Holding fire while both rockets are committed is correct behaviour, not a failure to act; breaking or switching a committed engagement is scored as an error even if the outcome is favourable. No more than twelve interceptors expended.

At most 1 hostile may reach the defended area.
