The one thing I've been trying to do with my scenarios is to make them dynamic - all three of them should play a bit differently (or in some cases very differently) each time. The latter two especially are meant to be played more than once. All of them are set in the Cold War so far, and all of them are mostly-historical (i.e. a realistic OOB, but may end up with a lot more action than the real historical outcomes). They're generally on the more complex side so I don't recommend them to players who aren't well-versed in CMANO gameplay.
This is a small scenario that might seem simple at first look - you command Soviet air defenses and you have to shoot down just one airplane to win the mission. But you'll quickly discover that this is a much more difficult task than it seems, and besides the impressive and elusive Blackbird, your biggest enemy is the Soviet command bureaucracy. You cannot shoot the airplane until you have permission from Moscow to open fire, and you can't count on getting it when you need it.
The neat thing about this mission is that the layout of your forces, the time and route of the Blackbird's arrival, and the timing of the permission to fire are dynamic in this mission and will play differently each time. Sometimes you'll get a good shot at the Blackbird, sometimes you'll be in perfect position to fire and never get permission, while other times it will bug out before it even gets close to the shore. Try it a few times and see how it changes!

Just finished playing this one last one...another great scenario! Thank you for making this and the other's re-playable. I played this particular one 3 times and got 3 different results each time. I just happened to have a pair of MiG25's airborne, ahead of the SR-71 and it literally took off...from 460 knots to Mach 3.....wow! Kudos and my hopes is this random sort of feature can become more common place and make all of the great scenarios in CMANO infinitely replayable and therefore a huge selling point in the future.
