About This Game

Fly the F/A-18C Hornet in this campaign set in the Persian Gulf.

Detailed Description

This campaign requires:
DCS: F/A-18C Hornet
DCS: Persian Gulf Map
DCS: Supercarrier

This campaign is first released into the DCS World Steam Edition Open Beta.

As another sunrise breaks over the shimmering Iranian desert horizon, things in the Gulf are about to change in a big way. It appears that the IRGC is no longer subservient to the Clerics as before. Fueled by the recent severe international sanctions, its new aggressive leader, by the name of ‘Asad’, has sworn to take full control of the Straits of Hormuz. In response, an international force has been deployed to the area with the USS Abraham Lincoln at its heart.

As Lieutenant Scott Waters, call sign ‘Ford’, deployment on USS John C Stennis in the Black Sea draws to a close, both he and his wingman, are soon to become part of this new force in the Gulf. Things are balanced on a pin head, tensions in the Gulf are about to be raised to breaking point and beyond.

This Campaign follows on from Ford’s exploits at the Black Sea aboard the USS John C Stennis in the ‘Serpent’s Head 2 Campaign’.

The Campaign ethos, as before, is not to capture reality but create an imaginative, immersive, and engaging set of missions linked together with a developing plot narrative.

Key Features

  • 15 Detailed missions linked by an ongoing story line.
  • ‘Ford’ is now joined by his wingman, Lieutenant Larry Jackson, call sign ‘Wave’.
  • As before, a VR-friendly design with careful control of resources and the recall of airborne coordinates.
  • Over a thousand voice overs performed by voice actors.
  • Detailed briefs for each of the missions includes a PDF version.
  • Kneeboards for each mission.
  • Personalized aircraft skins.
  • Alternate optional campaign version with ‘Easy Air to Air Refuel’ for those who have not yet mastered the art of catching the basket.
