Jump through your television directly into the cockpit of the Navy/Marine workhorse fighting machine - the F/A-18 Hornet. Now you can fly the most prolific carrier-based aircraft in the coalition arsenal. Load up with precision guided munitions and bring the forces of freedom to bear on the Iraqi regime of terror. Fly above a thousand square miles of stunningly realistic satellite image-based terrain. Look through your canopy and see the same environment that coalition fighter pilots navigated during Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Fly CAP (Combat Air Patrol), SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses), CAS/DAS (Close and Deep Air Support) and Escort missions in the challenging and varied theater missions. Or create your own with the very powerful and intuitive Mission Editor. There`s no limit to the number of unique scenarios that can easily be generated. Include coalition and enemy fighter aircraft of many types as well as bombers, helicopters, tanks, trucks, SAM missile systems and more. Load them down with the latest in high-tech weaponry and send into the fray.
