Hi all. I saw illo's thread about 1life sq. rules, and i see something about formation, and talks about a rotte. Somebody told me once how were distributed squadrons (schwarms i can remember only, but i don't know how many planes it has ). Can somebody tell me about it? I will print it and never ask it again, i promise Thx in advance P.D: any other info about old airshows will be gratefully received
This is as far as I know, but it's also as far as we'll use Rotte is the basic unit, it's a pair. Every rotte is independent unit. A Schwarm is made of 2 rottes, usually one patroling ahead and the other giving cover hi and behind.
check out these links. http://www.xs4all.nl/~rhorta/jgstruc.htm http://soe.wwiionline.com/12515.html Some 1000m is good spacing in Rotte. (to enable whole load of offensive tricks, even while being attacked) Anything up to 3500m between 2 pairs of Schwarm. (to keep visual and to effectively fight together)
