On the eve of World War III, Naval Aviation Pilot Captain Korneev arrives in the Persian Gulf as part of the Military Group of Peacekeepers to protect the interests of a friendly country.

In the summer of 2015, the Russian Aerospace Forces achieved significant results in the fight against terrorist groups on the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic (SAR). Our sources embedded in the ranks of terrorists say that a series of terrorist attacks are being prepared in the North Caucasian republics of the Russian Federation in order to reduce the military activity of the Russian Federation in Syria by blackmail. According to the information, the penetration of small sabotage detachments into the territory of the Russian Federation is planned from the territory of Georgia through the unrecognized Republic of South Ossetia. The authorities of South Ossetia, together with their Russian colleagues, carried out a number of measures to strengthen control over the border of the republic. Additional border posts were deployed, and patrol squads were reinforced in the most vulnerable places. Roadblocks have been set up on the main roads adjacent to the border with Georgia.
Taking into account mountainous forested areas and difficult terrain in some areas, the Russian side handed over two Mi-24P helicopters to the border service of South Ossetia for air patrol and rapid response to incidents. The infrastructure for the deployment and maintenance of helicopters was created in the shortest possible time. Two helipads are equipped with the necessary equipment and specialists. The Otkrytka FARP is located in the northeast of the republic, and the Podkova FARP is located in the southwest direction.
The plot intersects with the "The border" campaign for the Mi-8MTV2 helicopter.

To feel the pressure of the moment, the skills you learned so very recently bouncing around in your head as you're racing toward an angry bandit with 1000 knots of closure? To press into danger after a wingman evaporates from a missile hit? To engage a 4th generation fighter loaded to the gills with deadly missiles and 30mm rounds? Have you ever wondered how you would fare with the weight of the moment resting squarely on your shoulders?
Come join the Grim Reapers to learn how to fly the Tomcat. Prepare yourself for combat with ten rigorous RAG training sorties designed to teach you how to properly employ the most famous weapons system to ever take to the skies.

As staccato shafts of burning light flashed by the canopy, Lieutenant Scott Rivers, call sign 'Ford', squeezed the release button. He felt the expected "kick in the pants" as the Hornet surged when a ton of self-guiding ordinance dropped away intent on finding its mark. Below, seconds later, there was a massive shock wave as the area where the I.R.G.C. meeting was being held, exploded into ‘Hell on earth’ lighting up the entire City.
