Operation Bakwa Hammer: Navigation Log and Low Level Routing

Now that the comprehensive planning for Operation Bakwa Hammer is over, it's time to publish the flight documents, starting with the navigation log and the details of each leg for a visual low level navigation.

If you want to understand how we ended up with that particular attack plan, don't hesitate to read the following articles:

• Part 1: Feasibility

• Part 2: General Tactical Analysis

• Part 3: Target Analysis - 4T Study (Task, Target)

• Part 4: Target Analysis - 4T Study (Threat, Tactics)

You'll find attached the CombatFlite .cf file with the full track for Springfield 51, as well as the .jpg files that have to be placed in your default /Kneeboard folder.

First page of the navigation log: we have to leave the hold at 08:07:30 in order to be on time. We have a 15' medium altitude navigation from Kandar to the Hold if we depart at 07:52:00 as tasked.

You will also find the Tacview overlay with the track above, in order to compare your planning and the actual track you've flown.

Just drag and drop the .xml file in your Tacview window, or use the "Merge" function.
