FID - First in Defense recruiting

[JmrjMrjmR]

HELLO AND WELCOME TO

FIRST IN DEFENSE

 

Who we are

We are a DCS unit that hosts casual yet challenging Naval and Marine events and campaigns taking place during the closing years of the Cold War, as the Soviet Union begins to crumble and tensions in the Middle East escalate.

To further simulate this time period, First In Defense simulates five squadrons and their accompanying airframes:

➣ VF-31 Tomcatters flying F-14A Tomcats 

➣ VFA-132 Privateers flying F/A-18C Hornets 

➣ VMFA-321 Hell’s Angels flying F-4S Phantoms (Simulated by F-4Es)

➣ VMA-542 Tigers flying AV-8B Harriers

➣ VMA-133 Dragons flying A-4M Skyhawks (Simulated by A-4Es)

All of our simulated squadrons participate in each of our operations, requiring constant teamwork and precise timing to complete objectives and return safely.

Custom liveries representing the listed squadrons are available and are mandatory for member attendance.

 

Squadron Event Information

Events include weekly operations ranging from casual single missions, expansive PvE campaigns, joint operations with neighboring squadrons, and monthly tournaments. Each mission is hosted Thursday through Sunday, with run times tailored to North American players. 

Due to the nature of our squadron, training and related activities are not currently included in our syllabus. As such, our squadron does not require check rides or proof of skill to join and participate in operations. All we ask is basic proficiency with your chosen airframe and SRS functionality. Although frequent events may be challenging to new players, we strive to create missions that are completable by all skill levels and provide valuable learning experiences for all members.

Information regarding weekly mission dates, map information, mission briefings and sign-up forms are posted on our Discord channel (See below). Please note that access to this intel is only available after submitting a squadron application.

 

Leadership & Advancement

As our squadron does not require training or check rides, rank and advancement are entirely based on member attendance. Each attending member begins as a Naval Lieutenant Junior Grade (LTJG) or Marine First Lieutenant (1LT), based on their chosen airframe and squadron. As members attend more events, they are promoted to higher ranks, leading to more control within operations as flight leads and planners.
