Although the F-22 was conceived of as a pure fighter, it has developed some bombing capability. This scenario is to show how the bombing capability of the F-22 could be used.

ATTN: Commander, US Forces

You are to execute OPERATION SQUARE PEG.

INTEL/SITREP:

There is credible evidence that the Syrian regime is modifying L-39s for specialized chemical attack. The L-39s are located at Marj Ruhayyil airbase. The decision has been made to strike them. The urgent nature of this strike mission does not allow time for a thorough preparation, so F-22s, armed for a role they were not designed for, have been chosen to conduct it.

The Syrian air defense system, consisting of SA-2, 3, 5, and 6 SAMs is active. While MiG-29s have been spotted deploying at Damascus International Airport, it is unclear if they will intervene.

FRIENDLY FORCES:

Your command consists of a squadron of F-22s based out of RAF Akrotiri. The squadron armament consists of a mixture of AMRAAMs for escort against potential enemy air intervention and SDBs for the airfield attack.

MISSION:

Attack Marj Ruhayyil. The L-39s are hidden in shelters, so place a priority on destroying those.

EXECUTION:

This is to be a limited strike. While you are free to engage any MiGs in the air, do not attack Damascus International Airport.

Signal/EMCON:

Command: RAF Akrotiri.

EMCON: State C (Unrestricted Emissons).
