This is Mission number 18 in our fictional Operation Burning Sands Campaign where we are bringing the fictional countries of the old Strike Fighters Flight Simulator Series to life within Eagle Dynamics’ Digital Combat Simulator World. Members of my community have been craving more story driven missions and more roleplaying in said missions and a fictional campaign with a fictional storyline allows us to breakthrough the harsh geo-political realities of the DCS Syria Map and create a gritty, Tom Clancy like storyline for our two fictional middle eastern nations of the Kingdom of Dhimar and the Empire of Paran.
This mission follows the strike on the Shah of Dhimar’s palace by the EPAF and IEPAF that can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/k1WosMyW2Rw?si=Voix9WDQdqXNKfJP
Today’s episode follows an F/A-18C Hornet pilot on CVA-103 RDNS Suez the former Soviet Carrier Riga, now in the service of the Royal Dhimar Navy and Operating a Mixture of F/A-18C’s, F-14B Tomcats and AV-8B Harrier II’s in the Red Sea!

Great looking mission! Great job! This is a perfect example of why DCS is do great, deep mission planning and co-operative excitement.
Israeli hornet??? 🤔🤢
I know it takes a lot of work and time for you to do this but please try not to keep me waiting for another month P.S. I did think it was kind of cool that you played the oppfor side one time but I like Dhimar better that being said I did like the story line.
What was the “mid air”? 1:09:00 1:09:13
Where’d you -3 go right before tanking?
hey so i know it’s unrelated to the video but i haven’t played DCS in a few months and saw something about a ‘unified version’. I have a stable, openbeta and multithread openbeta all on my pc so does this mean i should delete the others and have just one as they are the same now? This could be incredibly wrong so that’s why i’m asking here. And as a final thing, what is the exact current version of DCS? i believe i’m fully up to date on my main version but would just like it clarified.
I've got F/A 18 and F-16 and don't even play, ech… laziness. Just watching videos of DCS. ;]
