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.

We join “Ford” on the way to the Stennis just after completing an aerial refuel 154 miles from the carrier.

EL 23 de Mayo del 2019 se sufrió un ataque terrorista perpetrado por fuerzas insurgentes Abjasios en la base de Senaki. Este suceso ocurrió tras la finalización de la misión “Patrulla fronteriza” donde se acogieron refugiados de la zona fronteriza, aprovechando esta situación para infiltrar la célula y perpetrar el ataque.<br /><br />

El Atentado fue revindicado por el grupo terrorista Revolucionarios Montañeses del Cáucaso, considerando este un éxito al haber causado graves daños materiales y victimas entre los refugiados que considera traidores, personal Georgiano y de la coalición internacional.<br /><br />
EL departamento de inteligencia con el apoyo de pro-georgianos en territorio Abjasio ha proporcionado información vital sobre la localización del campamento del grupo terrorista en las montañas abjasias.<br /><br />

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.

Daesh has been gaining in strength in the region in a very worrying manner. It is thought an unknown benefactor is providing unheard of military resources and command infrastructure guidance. The Stennis fleet has been brought into the area complete with a contingent of F18C Hornets to contain this threat.
Unbelievably Intel have picked up today that two submarines are being procured for Daesh. Who knows what for? They are currently in harbour, in a known location 50 miles away, but will be submerged within the hour. Although not in accordance with protocol, given the time factor, you have been tasked with leaving immediately to intercept and destroy both submarines. Your single F18C is armed with 4 Mark 83s, Aim7M, Aim120 and Aim9X.
It is understood Daesh are being trained to take part in the use of the subs in a camp deep in land. Military satellites are currently looking for its location. Time is of the essence.
It is early evening and unusually for the region there is some rain in the air. Your Hornet, call sign "Ford", is hooked into Cat 2 and awaiting clearance. Razor, in Cat 1, is ahead in the flight schedule and is about to leave for Khasab. You watch Razor anxiously as you are keen to commence and execute your mission before the evening light fails.

In prep for the F14 SQNs nearly ready to join our fleet, All jets are called back to the fleet ready for a tour of operations. Our F18S are our long range escorts today. you will be escorting a kc130 and s3b to Novorsik, you will land on the carrier to join the fleet. Tensions are high so keep aware and be ready for anything, Russia are trying to show some form of power , if they push to far, you are cleared to take them out,  

Our Intel have discovered that the opposing forces are manufacturing chemical weapons on an industrial basis. They have located four sites where manufacturing is currently underway. It has been decided to use the element of surprise and attack all four sites in one early morning strike. You have been selected to pilot a single F18C, call sign "Puma", and execute this early morning operation.
You will leave Batumi Air Base at 6.00 am in the morning and attack two targets. You will then traverse the mountains and land at Nalchik Air Base. Here you will refuel and rearm using the same weapons load out. You will then proceed to attack two further targets and finally fence out and land on the Stennis fleet based off the coast.
Your load out consists of Aim9X, Mark83s and one central external fuel tank. You will be supported overhead by Dark Star. As the operation proceeds the element of surprise will reduce. The operation will take about 80 minutes. This mission is fully voiced.

“It’s a beautiful morning as the day is about to break, you are on the apron in the hornet with its powerful twin engines already spinning. The green glow of the many instruments dance over your visor. Two transport planes are leaving in the amber twilight on another covert operation. You await your clearance with anticipation which will spell the start of your mission.”
