OPERATION CITADELLE

The beginning of Kursk on 5 July 1943
started with an abortive airstrike by the
Russians on Luftwaffe airfields,
resulting in large Russian losses.  The
Stukas and Hs129s in the first German air
assaults flew as many as five and six
sorties.  In the Belgorod sector, the 4th
Panzer Army struck northward, and over
two thousand aircraft clashed overhead as
one of the greatest battles of all time
began.  One of the elite opposing units
the Germans in the air was the 8th Guards
Fighter Air Division.

MISSION

As a pilot of a brand new, anti-tank
equipped Hs129, you are to destroy at
least 5 "tanks" (individual flak
battery guns) in the designated target
area.

NOTES

Use SUNSET.PAC for the first sortie of
the day, or use normal daylight for any
of the succeeding sorties.
