Description
The NATO fleet has reached Altis territorial waters. Now the CSAT and AAF forces will experience first-hand the technological advantage of the F/A-181 Black Wasp fighters belonging to the Raptor squadron.

This scenario is very simple in concept. You get a pool of objectives from HQ and need to complete enough of them. All objectives are procedurally generated for maximum replayability.

Possible objectives include (listed from easiest to hardest):
- Destroy enemy APC.
- Destroy enemy tank.
- Shoot down enemy attack helicopter.
- Intercept enemy fast mover.
- Suppress and destroy ground based radar.

To make your life just a bit harder enemy will use SPAA vehicles to protect their ground assets.
In-game progress saving is disabled. Instead, the system of respawning jets and the ability to return to base after being shot down is available.
As an added eye candy your fighter will get custom paint scheme made by yours truly.
Please be aware that this mission is for more experienced pilots.

JETS DLC IS REQUIRED TO PLAY THIS SCENARIO
If you liked this scenario, you can try its sister mission Mighty Dragon


Procedural generation is used in the mission to make it fresh and interesting on every playthrough.

RNG is practically runnin the show in this mission. All targets, as well as the time of day, are randomized, although some targets have a limit on how many of them can exist in parallel so as not to create an overwhelming swarm of enemy planes (for that we have Mechanical Locust), etc.


COOP mode is available for up to 6 players.

Takes somewhere between 15 - 20 minutes to complete the mission.


If you fancy yourself having my custom aircraft paint schemes in your mission they are available as BlackFox's Aircraft Texture Pack.

I agree with TubaHorse - this was a bit too chaotic and I didn't feel like there was any structure to the mission.

I'm not sure what sort of experience that other dude had, but this is miserable. Just spamming ZSUs and SAMs to make the player dodge like it's Ace Combat is not fun. Arma missiles do not work like normal missiles and it's basically just a roll of the dice if a missile schwacks you or not.

The lack of on-map mission markers also made it difficult to understand what the objective targets were. "Destroy tank". Okay, which one? Give me an area.

This feels less like an actual mission with an objective and more like a masochistic romp around the Eden editor just plopping AA units wherever and saying "Yes this is a challenge".

Better than the Jets showcase. Also hard as balls. Well done.
