pilot map - Gulf War

[Red Dog]

Anyone knows where to find a pilot maps of the Gulf War.
I'm looking for personnal annotations or mission specific marks on such a map...

Killboxes?
Tanker tracks?
Speaking of that, Snakeman, Are the tanker tracks fixed or dynamics? I mean when a tanker is tasked, does it fly to a specific area in the theatre or does its flight plan changes everytime.
The idea is to mark the tanker tracks on the kneemap

Yeah I can assign tankers to certain X/Y coordinates of the map. I'm not 100% sure if they maintain the stations throghout the campaign but at least they get tasked there right in the beginning.

Very good. In ODS we really need a drink.

All right then, Let me know where you want the tracks

I'll check Viper in the storm to see if there are some images there....

Lets start with the real life data first before go where I want them to be placed.

ya, we need tankers.

Frankly i hope DB activiate/add all my drop tanks. they should resonably extend the range of various a/c and reduce the use of tankers.

Aside from those stationed at inland bases, i wonder if short-legged harrier was deployed at forward base/airstripes for CAS. if yes, maybe we can place some airstripe to simulate it.

No tanker track yet but some interesting info

I have put together a small zip package of some scans from various sources you might be able to use

There is a tanker track map, kill box map and a load of OOB information in there too - sorry the scans are NOT numbered in order, but once printed they should be able to be placed in order

Hey HotDogOne good stuff, loved the killboxes images, it gives some idea how to place Iraqi ground forces around the border.

I didn't take too careful look yet as the image was flipped and all, but seems to be that the Iraqis were positioned very far to the west in the border.

Good stuff.
