Welcome to ”Far From North”, a work in progress, story driven F/A-18C Hornet single player campaign for DCS World!
This campaign will take place in Caucasus map of DCS World and put you in a cockpit of a Finnish Air Force F/A-18C Hornet in the following fictional circumstances:
Due to rising concerns for the tensions at the Baltic Sea region, Finland has requested to be a member of NATO alliance in 2005. Being the second new member after Georgia joined in 2004, Finnish Air Force is now starting to take part in military operations as a role of a ”peacekeeper” in the southern Georgia area of operations. This is closely associated with allied cargo and second hand military flight operations and the Finnish force will therefore operate from Batumi International Airport with two visiting F/A-18C aircraft. During your ten mission long sortie in Georgia, you will encounter various different types of missions from reconnaissance flights to SAR assist, CAP and escort duties, without forgetting the carrier. The primary focus and goal in the mission design of this campaign is on realism and immersion, instead of ”all out war”- oriented situations or gameplay.
This campaign includes voice-overs, subtitles, additional radio chatter samples, F10 menu options and more. The F/A-18C aircraft module from DCS store is required to play. The first sample mission titled "The Morning Fog" from this campaign is now available to download below. Ratings and comments at the user file section as well as forums are highly welcome! Stay tuned for more, the ETA for the complete package is TBA. More information will be posted here as the mission build is progressing.

Please note that this is a trigger based mission/campaign that requires you to navigate and operate in a fairly precise manner and also requires you to land and taxi your aircraft back to your starting point for a mission success.
I also made a quick webpage to keep things tidy:

Looking forward to hear your feedback! Thanks for flying and of course sorry for my second language! :smilewink:

EDIT: Changed campaign time/year to better suit the mission content and other aircraft involved in the missions (ie. F-14 & S-3 still in operation).
