Basic CAS guidelines

Flaps Use

• Deploy flaps at low speeds to improve lift and stability. This is especially effective during gun or rocket runs in low-threat airspace.

Navigation Techniques

• When visibility is limited, follow road networks at low altitude to align yourself with target towns.
• In good visibility, flying inverted at altitude provides terrain awareness before a dive.

Ordnance Delivery Tips

• Never rush a drop. If target alignment is not clear, abort and re-attack.
• Attack parallel to friendly lines to avoid overshooting or undershooting into friendlies.
• Dive attacks improve accuracy for both dumb and guided munitions. Alternatively, use pop-up attacks: fly low, then climb before diving on the target.

Laser Guidance Adaptation

• Even without laser-guided munitions, use laser marks to align gun runs. Lock onto the laser as if it were guiding a bomb, then switch to guns and fire once aligned.
