( Have you ever asked yourself WHY Eagle Dynamics integrated cows into a flight sim? Well, the explanation is as simple as frightful - - and this mission will bring you the disturbing answer. )
Fräulein Major is dead! In the aftermath of the „Secret NSA Mission“ she was brutally assassinated by a vengeful G.R.U. killer commando (G.R.U. = Russian Military Intelligence Service Headquarters).
At the same time a top secret A-10 of the british intelligence service MI6 was shot down over Iran and brought to Russia for deep investigations. No question this has to be prevented! And so Special Agent - living retired from service in Normandy - is reactivated by the MI6 to infiltrate Russia, steal the A-10 and take revenge for the insidious murder of Fräulein Major.
But once again the true intentions behind this operation are of a far bigger scale than initially reported - and what starts as a quick n’ sneaky airplane theft turns into a world threatening rampage of unimaginable dimensions.
Cooperating with the MI6 undercover spy Volchitsa, Special Agent is drawn deep into enemy territory north of the Caucasus mountains - to face a long forgotten buried behemoth fr om the soviet era of the early sixties: the „Doomsday Device“. Together they have to prevent its awakening AT ALL COSTS, no matter the human sacrifices, in order to stop an atomic nightmare that would send the planet into a nuclear winter for decades. So it lies in your hands to save mankind… and depending on your flying skills / morale decisions Fräulein Major might have an appearance, too.
In his last mission Special Agent is forced to take off and land on everything but proper runways, so your flying skills will be pushed to the very extend. Because when… if Special Agent is finally landing at Kutaisi airbase his nerves will be put to the test one more time. Luckily a small training mission is also included, wh ere you just have to land and take off again on a ridiculous short piece of asphalt, with a fully loaded aircraft. If you successfully manage this you’re prepared for the real thing.
In order to create a forward pushing film-like storyline you’ll be confronted with lots of A. I. voice dialogues, some old fashioned music tunes and a huge amount of timed triggers, which guide you through the mission. The initial situation for this mission is that you have played the „NSA Mission - Winter Wonderland“, found the easter egg at the end and chose the second option. But this is only for background knowledge, of course you can enjoy this mission fully on its own!
Since this begins as an undercover night mission of the british MI6, I chose this beautiful livery from user sirus_t:

and if you like, you could use it, too.
PLEASE NOTE: This mission DOES NOT start in the cockpit as usual, but with the external F7 view of the Night Intruder Vehicle. This is correct and on purpose. So when the game starts hit the F7 key, lean back and listen to the instructions of Colonel Volchitsa, while she drives Special Agent to his destination point and informs him about the situation and background. You will be seated automatically by the Eagle Dynamics Stewardess when you arrive at your airplane.
Furthermore be aware that you will be confronted with several #F10 commands, which are always announced in the text passages within the ***asterisk symbols***, and additionally a small graphic icon on the screen.
On top of this the mission also works with so called „Marker Points“ to locate crucial locations. So whenever you receive a corresponding info within the ***asterisk-embedded text*** check the F10 map to adjust your flight route.
============================================
=> Info regarding DIFFICULTY:
The landing and taking off procedures might be the most stressful moments of the mission. Because these are the real challenges which accept no mistake! Although I personally really like that stuff, you will perhaps find it too annoying by failing there after spending an hour or so into the mission. So I highly recommend to test your skills in the training mission first.
And if you still think „Man, this really sucks!“ you can make it a little easier by just changing one thing in the Mission Editor. It's very simple, and a small PDF sheet - which shows you what to do - is included in the download file.
…so hopefully you enjoy all the different challenges I put into the mission :-)
============================================
=> Info regarding the „SAVE MISSION“-Function:
All my missions are heavily trigger-based - even if you don't see anything happening, chances are good that a time based trigger runs in the background. Therefore saving a mission while audio files are active or an invisible time trigger runs will mess up the system, when you start again later, because things are out of sync or completely broken. So I can't recommend the use of the "Save-Function". Instead of this you will find another very easy option in the briefing images to save an interrupted or even failed mission for a later replay.
