Battle for Arakan

A 15-mission campaign with the RAF 135 Squadron during the First Arakan Offensive, January - May 1943, flying the Hurricane MkIIB.

Historical Background:
1942 saw the British forces pushed out of Burma and to the area around Chittagong, India (present day Bangladesh). The Japanese took control of Akyab Island and the land to the north all the way to Maungdaw and Buthidaung.

This is where the front stabilized and the only serious fighting was done in the air. Both sides had problems with logistics and neither army could manage to gather enough troops or supplies to mount any type of offensive.

Finally, by mid-December 1942, the British were able to begin a limited offensive in the Arakan with the 14th Infantry Division. The objective was to take control of the Mayu Peninsula and take Foul Point at its southern end. Foul Point was five miles across the water from Akyab and this would allow the port to be within range of artillery fire.

By January 1943, the British and Indian troops had taken Maungdaw and Buthidaung and much of the Mayu Peninsula. However, the Japanese built strong defenses at Donbaik with very durable bunkers and this put a halt to the allied advance.

The RAF and JAAF were very active during this period, both offensively and defensively. The RAF built several new airfields around Cox's Bazar enabling them to be closer to the front. 135 Squadron was one of several Hurricane squadrons in the region and they saw much action in a ground-attack role as well as air-to-air combat against their counterparts, 50th Sentai and 64th Sentai.

Notes:
-Must have cztx_BurmaLower map (V1.4 or V1.3+Patch).-Place skins in the folder for Hurricane MkIIb.
-Missions are designed to choose the highest rank in campaign format using the #1 airplane of the squadron leader so choose skin "Hurricane IIB 135 Sqn WK-B".
#2 uses skin "Hurricane IIB 135 Sqn WK-D"
#3 uses skin "Hurricane IIB 135 Sqn WK-R"
#4 uses skin "Hurricane IIB 135 Sqn WK-U"
Other Hurricanes will use "Hurricane IIB 135 Sqn roundels"
-Missions are based on the types of missions flown by Hurricane 135 Sqn in the Arakan. Some missions may be difficult but I tried to re-create based on historical facts as best possible. Know when to retreat.

NOTE:
For those of you who do not have the UI and you manually install MODS, this might help...
You may have some missing objects from LAL Rone's Hangar MODS and some of Fabianfred's new objects. See this link...
(The link is inoperative)

BurmaLower map uses some of these objects which are also used on Fabianfred's Thailand map because Fabianfred started making BurmaLower and it has these objects.
I think this might be the major problem for people who do not have the Unified Installer (UI 1.1.1) including its Patch.

I think if you can download this Patch, you can manually install these object files. Hope this helps.

Thanks!! Interesting campaign. Downloading right now
They used the Trop filter?

[CzechTexan]

??? my MkIIb doesn't have that. Are you using the correct plane?

[RealDarko]

Sure I am
This mod added trop filters to the Hurricanes you want. MKI and MKII series, I ever added them to the SeaHurricane to see how it looks
