SAYLOR CREEK BOMBING RANGE - R3202
This mod was created for the Virtual Tactical Air Command (vTAC) for use on training missions but is available to anyone who would like to use the scenery.
The Saylor Creek Bombing Range is located on 110,000 acres in southern Idaho and is associated with the 366th Wing at Mountain Home Air Force Base, a fighter training base 20 miles northwest of the range. Most of the range area is a buffer due to the use of live ordnance. In the real world, the range is primarily used by flying forces, training for air to ground warfare, and is covered with simulated hostile radar facilities, most of which are moveable electronic "threats," like those used on the Nellis Range in Nevada and elsewhere.The range is a six by three-mile target complex which consists of several groups of scorable targets, two strafe pits, a few bullseye targets, a mock airfield, a mock command post, and mock surface-to-air missile sites.
Notes:
(i) This is a companion to the Saylor Creek Range R3204 scenery found here.
(ii) While not required this scenery goes great with the Mountain Home AFB scenery by Nickb007 here.
(iii) Given examination of satelite imagery shows target aircraft on the runway and taxiway of the dirt strip, I took the liberty to not place aircraft here. The strip is actually very smooth and can thus be used for effective dirt strip operations within the sim.

@ Oozler,
Excellent work...very much appreciated...
Don't forget to update the version number in the manifest.json file.
Here it shows version number 1.1, but shows 0.1.0 in the manifest.
Also,
It's not a good idea to put the version number in the folder name. That belongs in the manifest.json file. The reason is, theoretically, it changes the folder name every time.
If you change the folder name e.g;
Mission Scenery - RNG Saylor Creek R3202-oozler
Mission Scenery - RNG Saylor Creek R3202v1.1-oozler...
it will leave BOTH folders in the scenery library, as it won't overwrite the old one.

Thank you! Noted - This will be an ongoing issue with all my sceneries to this point. It is my plan to address this in a non-version update to the files to get thing in line so going forward information properly correlates. Thank you very kindly!

Thank you very much. There are some other outlying components of this range that I will be putting in to it's own mod in the next week. Hope you enjoy the range!
