The upgraded F-14B(U) Tomcat has arrived in DCS World, bringing GPS-guided JDAM precision strike capability. That raises an interesting alternate-history question: could a small flight of modernized Tomcats have succeeded where 871 U.S. combat sorties during the Vietnam War failed?
In this mission, we recreate the infamous attack on the Thanh Hóa (Dragon's Jaw) Bridge, one of the toughest targets of Operation Rolling Thunder. Armed with JDAMs, our F-14s must fight through intense AAA, deadly SA-2 surface-to-air missiles, and aggressive MiG-21 interceptors to deliver a precision strike.
Can modern precision-guided munitions rewrite history, or will Vietnam-era air defenses prevail?
