All of K-9 (aside from maybe Driver) just re-remembered how flying worked in-setting a week ago, and F59 Command already stuck them on Wild Weasel missions. For the uninformed, Wild Weasel is the wing of attacker craft that were first selected to strike SAM positions. Squadron Motto became acronym'd to be put on the patch for both length and profanity, given they selected You Gotta Be Shitting Me. Since those days, the squadron's name has become a shorthand for a good chunk of anti-SAM operations. It's usually done in tandem with jammer craft... but the thing is, it's not the stuff you give out to baby bluebirds busting to show they're good to wear big boy britches. Despite how understandable it is that the Federation are making do with what they have in an under-equipped defense, this is usually the sort of thing you have a dedicated wing of professionals for doing in order to be sure you aren't throwing planes, fuel, ordnance and brains away for nothing.
@@strider117aldo9 Wild Weasel specifically refers to aircraft equipped with Anti-Radiation missiles, which is even more specific than SEAD (which can be done by artillery)
Suuuuuure, they totaly aren't going to attemp genocide cascadia twice and blowing up their own cordium reserve in magadan...making driver effort complety useless.

E-6, my beloved!
Man the allies got major kills this mission.

Not just striking radar, eh
A quick search yielded me that, separate from SEAD

I feel like people judge the federation soldiers to harshly, they seem like good people if they weren’t prejudged by the not so bad federation.
Bias. Pure, unadulterated bias. Refusal to acknowledge the good parts of the Pacific Federation. Fortunately, I'm not one of them. #PaxFederation
