Description
February 2024. Finland is on the verge of joining NATO, when the unthinkable happens: Russian armed forces push through the border while cruise missiles rain down on the country. Several western allies join the conflict at once to fight alongside their Finnish brothers in arms. Among them is the 112th Fighter Squadron of the Air National Guard, who had just arrived from a training exercise in the UK.
For the release of the DCS Kola map, Baltic Dragon and Reflected Simulations created a fictional scenario based on real life events and tactics. Strap into a Finnish Hornet and take off from a hidden road base in Baltic Dragon’s version, or fly a Viper with the legendary Stingers to defeat the invaders in its twin campaign made by Reflected Simulations. (These 2 campaigns are sold separately)
Take part in study level, highly realistic missions such as CAP, CAS, SEAD and precision strikes. Follow real life procedures down to unprecedented details. In two highly realistic campaigns woven into the same storyline, experience what it would be like to fly as a fighter pilot in a large-scale air war today. The Hornet campaign contains 10 missions flown as a Finnish Air Force F-18C pilot, starting on the initial day of the conflict.
This campaign introduces a new, more immersive way for the player to interact with the environment using their HOTAS, which practically completely eliminates the use of space bar or F-10 menu.
Key Features:
10 immersive missions with a variety of different tasks: CAS, X-CAS, CAP, escort, pre-planned strikes and more
An interactive intro mission, guiding the player through the most important aspects of the campaign
Operations from road bases in Finland
Over 2200 lines of dialogue with voice-overs
Custom ATC interaction for all the missions
Optional use of air to air refueling or the choice to skip it all together
Detailed documentation, flight plans, maps, target information available in both PDF format and from within each mission as part of the kneeboard
