I don’t know which plane(s) to use for the Light Rockets part of this task, weighing under 5 kg. I am not much of a rocket man in aerial combat and I cannot find places with such light rockets, all I try seem to have heavier than 5 kg. Premium and Rank III or IV would be best, I don’t do jets very well and I don’t have many planes spaded.

I completed the <5 kg task with the Me 262 A-2a in Air RB. The R4M rockets will do the job. Just stay away outside spotting ranges and attack enemies landing on their forward airfield. I got a Spit and an AD-4 there, the last guy was a Strikemaster stalling in front of me.

Avoid attacking bombers - they tend to survive hits and damage/kill u with their gunners. Take 22 minutes fuel (last for 25 minutes) with 98% thrust (avoids overheating) and be patient.

Same strategy worked with US HVARs with P-47 D-28 and CHN F-47 N for heavy rockets. I will use the I-185 M 82 for the medium rockets next weekend…

I have yet to use a CAS aircraft in Ground Arcade, level III-IV, which uses light rockets. Maybe I missed it…is there an aircraft available for use in CAS missions that employs light rockets in GAB? If not then the achievement of Rain of Arrows in level III is unattainable and needs to be addressed for the next iteration of this scenario.
