Allies: One random Ground Targets
CP: Two Random Ground Targets

Results:
CP: 9 mission points. Two planes shot down and one ground target destroyed.

Here I decided to go after the two ground targets. I had hoped that Steve would follow me. I picked the DVa for its speed and health points. Gary is moving his plane.

I make a breakaway but Steve S. decides to stay and use the DR1 maneuverability to fight on.

First hit on the Ground target. I was in a poor position for a follow up hit and finding out it was a gun was not fun.

I get lucky with the second shot and destroy the ground target.

I did not know it but Gary was really weak and was going to run. I got lots of good shots on him
