Top Gun content - escort missions?

Escort missions could be fun. Like, take what people already do in the F-18 and make a game out of it somehow, where you’d have to get to the escort target in a certain amount of time and then stay a certain distance from them.

I made some mission concepts including that sort of thing a while back & posted on the ‘missions like fsx’ wishlist. The more upvotes that thread gets, the more chance we’ll get FSX style missions, which were really enjoyable.

Its quite a nice idea actually. I’m not sure whether the sim is capable of that sort of mission structure though. There’s a lot of similar type ideas that could work well with civilian planes too. People do like having some sort of structure and goal to their activities in the sim.

Even some formation flying exercises would be a nice touch. Maybe we’ll get that. who knows.

The Reno air races got me thinking about other online things Asobo could do thats not competition based but gets people flying together for a shared goal of some sort.

Search and rescue. Plant a downed AI plane somewhere and you’ll succeed if you locate and stay within close range for 30 seconds.

Delivery missions where you can precision airdrop supply crates (for humanitarian missions, etc) could be fun.

Aircraft Carrier Landing challenges…eg Turbulent seas with a moving deck, landing in squally conditions etc.

Mach loop matches! Reno on steroids.

A 4G inverted dive with a Mig-28 at about 2 meters, or actually about 1.5 and taking a screenshot while keeping up foreign relations with the enemy - if you know what i mean…

And if you mess up a little bit, you have to fly a cargo plane out of Hong Kong.
