It is the year 2000. The terrorist organization Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for a coordinated attack resulting in heavy damage to the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis while docked at the port of Haifa, Israel. The assault has led to the deaths of dozens of U.S. military personnel and civilians.
In response to this act of aggression and a broader wave of terrorist activity across the region, the United Nations Security Council has authorized a multinational military operation to dismantle Hezbollah's operational capabilities. Rules of engagement are strict: collateral damage must be avoided at all costs - no further civilian casualties are permissible.

Explore the chronicle of the Syrian War in the OUTPOST campaign series. Part III immerses you in the operations of "Grunts in the Sky" - the 74th and 163rd Fighter Squadrons within CJTF-OIR. Step into the boots of U.S. pilots navigating some of the most intense and challenging phases of the conflict.
Within the complex geopolitical landscape, Syria has become a strategic outpost for both Russia and the United States. Beyond serving as a central battlefield in the fight against terrorism, it now stands as a focal point of great power competition - where each actor pursues strategic objectives and influences global dynamics.
As of June 2017, the front lines of the Syrian Civil War remain highly volatile. The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), backed by the CJTF-OIR coalition, continue their offensive against ISIS in the northeastern region of the country. The operation is centered on the city of Raqqa, considered the de facto capital of ISIS. With substantial coalition air support, the SDF is pressing the assault and has reached the city's outskirts.
Deployments originate from Incirlik Air Base (Turkey), King Hussein Air Base (Jordan), Gaziantep, Şanlıurfa, and H-4 Air Base. Stone Sky's attention to detail and precise mission design will exceed your expectations. The OUTPOST campaign series is crafted for seasoned pilots seeking historical realism and operational variety, while also supporting newcomers with scalable difficulty and integrated guidance.
1985 - Following a sudden shift in Soviet leadership, the USSR abandoned détente and launched a full-scale invasion of Western Europe. West Germany fell within days, and most of the German Air Force was wiped out on the ground. Only a handful of squadrons managed to escape to Britain, regrouping for NATO’s last stand.
With Central Europe in flames, the Soviet war machine turned north. The Soviets goal: control of Scandinavia and the North Atlantic, cutting off NATO’s supply lines and forcing the West into submission.
In a desperate bid to halt the advance, NATO formed the Task Force Northern Defenders—a coalition of land, sea, and air units drawn from across the alliance. Among them, the remnants of the German Luftwaffe, hastily reformed and thrown into the fight.
As an F-4 Phantom pilot, you will engage in high-risk missions—from air superiority to deep strikes and close air support—fighting to hold the line and push the Soviets back.
Outnumbered. Outgunned. Not defeated.
The fate of Europe is in your hands.
