Big trouble in the Middle East! Our Embassy is attacked and overrun. We need to start an airlift evacuating all personnel at Al-Bateen Airport. We use our Tanker Texaco 1-1 (codename: KNIGHT) stationed at Khasab, to secretly execute this mission. Our Carrier the Stennis is nearby on the West of Dubai, ready to provide the escort and A2A support.

ALPHA scrambles from the Stennis and joins KNIGHT (WP 2). Escort KNIGHT until safely landed at Al-Bateen Airport and after take-off back to Khasab.

BRAVO scrambles from Al Ain International Airport. Destroy the ground threats at Al-Bateen Airport (WP1) before KNIGHT lands and provide cover in the South (CAP1 area). Join ALPHA for escort from Al-Bateen Airport back to Khasab (CAP2 area).

Iran and China have entered an alliance of mutual support which has bolstered Iran's influence in the Persian Gulf. As a result tensions between this alliance and the US and Europe escalated to the point of war. This mission is set early in the conflict and involves providing CAP for ground attack flights.

This campaign is based on the history of the Jagdgeschwader 5 "Eismeer" (Arctic Sea), as narrated by German ace Walter Schuck in his book "Luftwaffe Eagle".
The unit operated for most of the WWII above the Arctic Circle facing the Red Army from East and the RAF bombers from West.
The 13 missions reflect actual operations described in the book, 2 are made only to test your flying skill.
The campaign was originally designed for the Bf109K-4 (https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3314088/); this is the conversion for the Fw190A-8 module.

A short CAP mission in an Iranian F-14A

This is the DCS Fw-190 A-8 Operation Tsunami Campaign.

The original was for the Bf-109K-4 and made by Rudi-Beutler@t-online.de
He was kind enough to let me, Sydy, to translate it to english and convert it to the Fw-190A-8.
Even on the early access stage, the campaign is doable.

One of the scenarios based on "tanker war" between Iran and western countries.<br />
<br />
As part of deescalation agreement between Iran and USA it was agreed that Iran would decommission its Tomcat fleet. Airworthly airframes are being flown by USN pilots to UAE to be scraped at Al Minhad AB. You are flying one of the last Tomcats to UAE in the early morning. A local Dubai radio station, Banker radio on 82.3MHz, is playing all 80s hits, tune to it to make your boring flight time pass more quickly. You are flying high above Abu Dhabi when you hear the news. An Ukranian flag tanker is stopped in the southern shipping corridor just south of the Siri island. Iranians are claiming the ship is part of an illegal ELINT operation. It is reasonable to expect that they will try to board it for inspection or sink it plainright.
