Khalkhin-Gol Incident-USSR

...A brutal encounter between the Soviet Union and Japan in Mongolia, 1939. Many years ago, I heard of a campaign of this conflict/incident for CFS2. Does anyone know of it? Was it ever published? With all the newer aircraft available, this could be an interesting one to build or update.

Greg,

I think it's only the IJAAF side, though. Is you wanted to fly it from the "Soviet" side, you'd have to "flip" the missions around, like I did with the Battle for Europe, which was originally a Luftwaffe-only campaign.

Thank you Rami, that saves me a lot of time!

This battle is also known as the 'Nomonhan Incident'.

There is a campaign made by Xavierb :

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Campaigns Add-Ons

Description: This is an historical campaign, based on the Khalkhin-Gol battles, also known as the Nomonhan Incident between the Soviet Union and the Empire of Japan in Mongolia. The conflict occurred in the border regions of Mongolia and Manchuria from 11 May until 15 September 1939. It began with a border dispute between Mongolia (a USSR ally) and Manchukuo (the name for the Japanese puppet government of occupied Manchuria).

Historically, the incident ended in a decisive Soviet victory. Neither side wanted to go to war, and especially the Japanese, once the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany signed their non-aggression pact. That would have meant that Japan would then have to fight the Soviet Union alone, without her Axis allies. Both sides wanted peace

This CFS2 campaign packet consists of only the Soviet side of the conflict, with 35 total missions, set up in a 25-mission long campaign, both air to air engagements and air to ground, offensive and defensive. In some cases, the numbers of aircraft are reduced proportionately because of the limitations of the sim. For example, in mission four, over 140 aircraft were involved in a massive dogfight, but I used only 70.

My sources rarely gave exact locations for the starting points/bases and target or engagement locations throughout the campaign. Therefore, I used a best guess for these. Also, the CFS2 map is relatively flat and though changes in elevation are noted in Mission Builder, hills, valleys and some rivers do not show well when you fly the rolling steppe terrain. Geographic features are rare and are also, with a few exceptions, a best guess, using the source maps.

Enjoy the air "war"!
