The Serpents Head is a six mission F18C Campaign. It starts in Nevada and ends in the Caucasus region, so both maps are required. (I have issued a version just in the Caucasus Map area for those of you without the Nevada Map). The campaign is story line based and follows the progress of “Ford” (yourself) and his involvement in a new conflict in the Caucasus Region. As in 2008 this is once again in the beleaguered area of Ossetia and Gori. This conflict is gathering pace at an alarming rate such that the West have sent in a multinational force to the Black Sea in the form of some ground forces but primarily a naval fleet with the USS John C Stennis at its heart. We join “Ford” during his last flight over Nevada, before he leaves first light.
(THE FOLLOW UP "THE SERPENT'S HEAD 2 CAMPAIGN" IS NOW AVAILABLE FROM DCS. It continues "Fords" story and consists of 10 missions all fully voiced by actors. It  is VR friendly and there is also an option for easy A2A)

Update April 24: Changed to zip files.  
This Reduced Version of "The Serpents Head" is a five mission F18C Campaign. It is only to be used if you do not have the Nevada Map. If you do you should use the full version. The Campaign is story line based and follows the progress of “Ford” (yourself) and his involvement in a new conflict in the Caucasus Region. As in 2008 this is once again in the beleaguered area of Ossetia and Gori. This conflict is gathering pace at an alarming rate such that the West have sent in a multinational force to the Black Sea in the form of some ground forces but primarily a naval fleet with the USS John C Stennis at its heart. We join “Ford” on the way to the Stennis just after completing an aerial refuel 154 miles from the carrier.

The “Formation of a Departure” is Mission 1.0 from my “Serpent’s Head Campaign” also available free from these user files.

The Serpent’s Head is a six-mission F/A 18C Campaign. It starts in Nevada and ends in the Caucasus region, so both maps are required. (There is also a five-mission version just in the Caucasus map area)
The campaign is story line based and follows the progress of “Ford” (yourself) and his involvement in a new conflict in the Caucasus Region. As in 2008 this is once again in the beleaguered area of Ossetia and Gori.
This conflict is gathering pace at an alarming rate such that the West have sent in a multinational force to the Black Sea in the form of some ground forces but primarily a naval fleet with the USS John C Stennis at its heart.
We join “Ford”, in this mission, during his last flight over Nevada, before his unit leaves at first light in the morning for the Black Sea and the Stennis.

A fictional Australian aircraft carrier based on the Forrestal,
this is a Livery file and does NOT require modifying the main DCS folder.

It is a basic livery for the Forrestal, brightening lots of the deck markings, changing the Island to gray, and adding some Canadian touches to the Default Heatblur USS Forrestal.

In an alternate world under a lease agreement with the US Navy, Canada would once again have an aircraft carrier. With a strained budget, a single Forrestal-Class aircraft carrier was chosen. Not long after, the vessel was commissioned into the Canadian Armed Forces as HMCS Forrestal (CV-59).

Operation Longsword is inspired by the events of the 1983 evacuation of the US Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon.

The player will fly CAP in his F-14A Tomcat off the coast of Lebanon and ensure that the evacuation helicopters get in and out of Lebanon safely.
The mission provides an own AWACS, callsign Wizard who will provide all mission relevant data to the player.
Mission uses a lot of randomizations, so the experience will be different when flying the mission a second, third or even fourth time.

For a better immersion of the set time frame, the mission uses Heatblur's Forrestal carrier.

A British Royal Navy livery for Heatblur's USS Forrestal, depicting the carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth R01. Due to some inaccuracies pointed out to me, I have completely redone all three liveries and updated them to a new standard, and added in three new bonus liveries depicting them later in their lives.
