Destroy the American Convoy

  The Allies have landed in France and are increasing the size of their 
beachhead faster than we can get our Panzers into position to stop 
them.  Use your Ju-87G to cause havoc in their armored columns.

 To install, put the "ju87g" folder into your aircraft folder and put 
the "ju87gconvoy.mis" file into your missions folder.

Tips:

  Don't waste cannon ammo! You only have 24 rounds so wait till you're 
within 600 meters or so to fire.  Most targets take about 3 or 4 rounds
to destroy, but the Shermans take a lot more than that.

  You can shoot down a fighter on your six if you see him coming soon 
enough.  When he's at about 1500 meters, pull up hard, looking to your 
rear view upwards at a 45 degree angle.   Start pressing the trigger 
at about 1000 meters and use elevator and rudder to point your tracers 
at the enemy aircraft.  Be careful though, this manouver often results 
in a collision.  Your best bet is to pay close attention to where the 
fighters are and make your runs so that they can't get on you.  There 
are two 109's as cover, but don't count on them too heavily, it's up 
to you to fly defensively.  Everything I've ever read says that the 
fighter pilot who flies defensively rather than offensively is dead, 
this isn't neccesarily true, if you do it right. Besides, you're not 
flying a fighter for this mission! 

  Have fun!


Known problems:

  In the mission briefing you're told to destroy the vehicles before 
they cross the bridge but it doesn't matter if you do or not, that's 
just there to make it make sense.

  Not all of the armor will try to move, the last few vehicles seem 
to be stuck for some reason.

  The Ju87g never saw service on the western front, it was used mostly 
in the eastern front, although some saw service in the Mediteranean 
theater.  I was going to do some sort of battle of Kursk type thing, 
but the CFS world doesn't go that far east so it'll have to wait.
