Any Good F/A-18 Supercarrier Missions out there?

Hey guys,

 

Has anyone created any cool F/A-18 missions for the Supercarrier yet? I see ED has included literally no combat missions whatsoever with the Supercarrier :cry:

 

I'm still trying to figure out where to find the best mission content so advice is welcome! I didn't realise quite how little combat mission content comes with the F/A-18 module :helpsmilie:

I'm playing "Operation Cage The Bear". Really nice f/a-18 campaign for both sc and vanilla.

 

Find its thread in f/a-18/missions and campaigns

 

Also, keep an eye open for Raven One, upcoming paid dlc from Baltic Dragon

Thanks for the heads up on this, it looks great! I came to the DCS party late with the launch of the supercarrier, and I'm realizing I started flying the Hornet just after it got a bunch of features (like TGP, advanced weapons etc) that people have been waiting on for awhile. I finally timed something right :D.

 

But it's great to learn how much in-depth mission content is out there, especially freeware, but I certainly don't mind paying for content as rich as this Raven One campaign looks to be. I'll be getting it for sure.

Cage the Bear is free, but worth to be paid. Really.

Start form there while waiting for Raven One

+1

 

IMHO the best and most realisitic (...as far as me civvie can tell:) ) Hornet campaign out there. Great voiceovers, great missions and very immersive.

 

Cage the Bear is also neat, I‘m nearly through that one as well. But it still boggles my mind to operate a US carrier in the Black Sea :book: and I just like the PG AO much more. That and maybe the really excellent voiceovers in Exigent Riviera makes it my favorite. I also like longer missions (1h+) which there are a few in ER.

 

As with most campaigns that were out there before the SC and that now swapped the Stennis with one of the SCs, you will still see references to the „Stennis“. This occurs in the briefings, the voiceovers and TACAN channels (74X). But it‘s not a bummer at all, I‘m rather happy we got the „converted“ campaigns so quickly.

Thanks for the tip, I'll also give it a try. I couldn't really get beyond mission 1 for CTB. Something like 20+ bombers with no escort, like shooting fish in a barrel. Way too easy and unrealistic.

 

I agree about mission one of CTB, but that's just a warm-up gimmee. Mission 2 on, they're great. Quite a bit of coordination among multiple flights with various missions.

I've just gotten into Liberation 2.0. It supports Supercarrier and is the closest thing we have to a dynamic campaign right now. Well worth checking out.

 

Sounds interesting. Have a link? I didn‘t manage to find any Liberation campaign in the user files section. Thanks!
