Mission was a Battlefield Interdiction mission against a Russian Guards T90 Tank company that had just unloaded at the Gori railhead. Intel believes they were to spearhead an attack to capture/disrupt Tbilisi, the capitol of Georgia. It was imperative that this tank company be reduced to non-operational status.
Mission Success!
24 out of 26 units in this tank company were destroyed. Several enemy aircraft were also destroyed, while we also suffered some aircraft losses. 2 were due to friendly fire from Eagles flying CAP.

Whoops! That should've been flares. I need to remap my controls on my HOTAS. I keep getting the flare and chaff buttons mixed up. Probably not the reason I got shot down but that didn't help any.
