Brother Against Brother - Newb looking for tips

[SunBurnt Benji]

Looking for a little advice with Brother Against Brother. Everything plays out pretty standard, ship gets sunk so I send my ASW heli to torpedo it. Scramble my fighters to patrol near the radar, but my planes just cannot put up a fight against whatever Venezuela has. The pythons are crap vs. the long range jets and before I even get the go-ahead for invasion my planes are shot out of the sky.

Should I leave my jets grounded or something?

Review your objectives carefully.

This scenario is actually great for tearing-out the Maverick-wannabe vibe and instilling proper operational/theater command perspective.

Are you there to re-enact Top Gun, or are you there to achieve specific operational objectives? Is there a way to get the job done without necessarily confronting your enemy's superior force?

Think about it.

Thanks. After taking a break I came back and re-evaluated my operational processes. Too long I have focused on negating my enemies air power and realized that I need to focus on the rebels.

Thanks!

This Scenario now has a whole bunch of LUA errors throughout. Every time I hit a Venezuela item, I get an error saying that the LUA something or other isn't working.

But yes, the objective is rather limited. Still, fun to satisfy that and then go back and see what else you can wreck just for fun!

Harassing their air power rather than trying to destroy it, meanwhile send your helicopters over the mountains loaded with infantry, that's how i got it in the end
