Server with Hawkeye60's Awesome Mods

[Invisibull]

Hey folks,

I've been really enjoying the Corsair and can’t recommend Hawkeye’s WWII Pacific Allied Assets and Japanese Pacific Theater Naval mods enough—they’ve become essential to my setup. Using these outstanding mods, I’m running a server with a highly realistic Pacific scenario, and you’re all invited to check it out.

The server features two controllable aircraft carriers, allowing for dynamic naval operations and carrier-based strikes. There’s also a robust F10 radio menu with features like bullseye tracking, cargo plane locations for escort missions, allied client tracking, and real-time carrier status—all designed to make coordination straightforward and intuitive.
For advanced radar situational awareness, I’ve added a custom radar script by GTFreeflyer.

The current server name is:
IFC PRESENTS: OPERATION STEEL CURTAIN (MODDED VERSION-SEE BRIEFING) | FEATURING THE F4U-1D CORSAIR | ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME | P-51s, and P-47s ALSO AVAILABLE VIA DYNAMIC SPAWN

Whether you want to test your skills in the F4U-1D Corsair, fly P-51s and P-47s, or take on carrier ops and logistics roles, or just work on your carrier landings, there’s something for every play style.

Looking forward to your feedback, and a big thank you to Hawkeye60 for the incredible mods and to GTFreeflyer for the radar addition that elevates our mission experience.

Thanks for the shoutout

I did check out the server with a couple buddies and we had a great time.  It’s the right balance between casual play, and just way too much going on like some other servers have. 

Will be back
