I must be prescient.....

A couple of years ago, I defined an AAR problem for the latest version of the A310MRTT AAR mission system. This consisted of the tanker taking off from Sicily, a rendezvous with Rafales from the CdeG (on station near Malta) somewhere west of Crete - followed by a trail to a cast-off point north-east of Cyprus. The Rafales then went to spread tidings of joy to targets in Syria whilst the tanker refuelled some Typhoons on an AD CAP, before the Rafales came back to another RV point before being trailed back to their carrier, which had moved to a new station - the tanker then landed in Crete....

The software coped fine.

I wonder whether the Voyager's mission system can manage such a complex plan, some years later?
