Mig-9 over China
Vznik Mig-9 začal v 1944, ale protože vývoj proudových motorů značně zaostával, přikročilo se k okopírování německých BMW 003. Ač se to možná nezdá, jediným letounem, který s tímto motorem dosud létal a bojoval byl He 162. Proč si rusové nevybrali motor Jumo nevím. Ve hře zřejmě není pozdní rusy vylepšená verze BMW 003S, která dávala asi o 20% vyšší tah. V 6000m tak udělá maximálku cca 840-850 km/h, je tedy rychlejší než Me 262, ale jen o nějakých 40 km/h . Drak letounu se zdá na pohled zdařilý, ale ocasní část se musela vypořádat s dopady vysokých teplot spoza motorů, nevhodně umístěná výzbroj a celkově špatná základna pro další evoluci. Vývoj byl proto přenesen na drak legendárního nástupce Mig-15. Fargo se tak už nedostal do bojů v Koreji a nemít prvenství aspoň jakožto první ruský prouďák, skončil by v propadlišti dějin úplně.
Procedura stoupání je následující- po klasickém startu stáhnout výkon na 80%, a pozvolné stoupání zahájit při dosažení 600 km/h. V 7000m budete asi za 4 minuty. Fargo je záchytný stíhač a jeho dolet je velmi malý. V 10 000m už je první budík na 0 a začne ubývat i druhý.
Mig-9 měl 1x 37mm a 2x 23mm kanony. S velkým kanonem byl ale problém ve vyšších nadmořských výškách, kdy motory při nasátí střelných spalin vysadily. Toto překvapivě simuluje i hra a tak je kanon použitelný jen do výšky kolem 4000m, výše jste odkázáni na dva menší, avšak stále velmi účinné. Taktiku boje s takovým strojem si jistě doplníte sami, rychlost je jeho jediná deviza.
V boji může motor začít hořet, ale vždy se mi zdařilo jej uhasit letem střemhlav. Motor je nějak vylepšen a pokud trhnete tahem, nezničí se, smysl to ale vzhledem k mizerný akceleraci nemá.

Rumburak campaign.
On October 4, 1949, Czechoslovakia recognized the People's Republic of China as one of the first countries and established diplomatic relations with it.
Unofficial cooperation, however, began a year earlier with the help of Communists in their efforts to defeat Westward-supported nationalists. However, this aid has increased in the deployment of a military mission. The agreement was signed with the counterpart by National Defense Minister L.Svoboda at a meeting with a Chinese counterpart in Moscow.
The Czechoslovak Air Force Regiment Rumburak, the so-called volunteers under the command of Major Vomacka, arrived to China in the spring of 1949. There were twelve of the time the school machines Yak-15 (Squadron 1) equipped with armament and 12 modern Mig-9 (Squadron 2) Including ground staff. The group shared a base in Quanzhou with the Chinese fighter and bomber regiment. It fell under the command of 65th IAD. The task of the Migs was to protect point industrial targets primarily at medium heights. Less powerful, but more deft Yaks took over the defensive role of the airspace at lower levels. Although the Mao communists were victorious in the land war, and Kuomintang was already pushed into Formosa-today's Taiwan, the PLAAF Air Force was defensive and nationalist reinforced by the US Air Force, attacking cities, logistics and industry. Rumburak was here on the CNAF's main route.
On May 20, 1949, General Tchang visited Quanzhou Airport, along with the main sturman and deputy commander 65.IAD Major Sung. They decided that the Czechoslovak unit, made up of two squadrons, would be able to commence operations 22.5 at 4:30 am. To ensure co-ordination at the front, the Chief Division of the Chinese Officer assigned the unit to the head of the Operations Unit. From now on, the group was ready to take on combat tasks.
The PLAAF was equipped with a mix of older Japanese and Russian fighters, the best of which was La-9. Stalin has added to China a large number of deactivated Mig-9s a year later. The Battle Activity of the Czechoslovaks ended in the mid-1950s with the beginning of the Korean War. However, Czechoslovakia continued with material help in this conflict ...

Check the stability, maneuverability and speed limits.
Attention, engine temperature can not longer time exceed the 800 C°. Remember, do not use the 37 mm cannon at a height over 4,000 meters. Fire gases are sucked in engine and then probably turned him off !! In the fight Take advantage your speed advantage. Learn to use the radio compass for quick return to base. Keep an eye on the fuel gauge. At high speeds maneuver very gently. Read attentively briefing before mission start. Do not use autopilot because those will destroy jet engines.
Target:
1) You test 2x NS 23mm and 1x NS 37 mm guns. Follow lead Mig-9 to Liptovska Osada (L9) in 3000m (BD beacon). Here destroy 6x trainer targets in 2800m.
2) Check the stability, maneuverability and speed limits.
Test the maximum speed at this height , after go back and make perfect landing.
Mig has radio compass for navigation back to home base (useable only 150km before home base).
