Baltic Dragon, creator of some extremely well known and well regarded campaigns for DCS World is hard at work creating the Raven One campaign for DCS: F/A-18C Hornet and the DCS: Supercarrier module. The campaign is making good progress as RedKite, a YouTuber who creates a lot of DCS World content, has shown off the fourth mission and provides an in-depth first look at this new campaign. Let’s have a look!
A tense situation in the Gulf
Based on the novel “Raven One,” by author Kevin Miller who is also a 24-year veteran of naval aviation, Raven One for DCS World is being created to provide an exciting but also authentic DCS: F/A-18C experience. Two former Hornet pilots, Jell-o and Sunshine from the Fighter Pilot Podcast (FPP), are also consulting.
In this fourth mission, a tanker is threatened in the gulf by hostile patrol boats and a few other surprises. The situation is tense but it’s also a great show of how a mission can be designed around more than just firing missiles at targets but rather working with a team of operations and observing a complex set of rules of engagement can be just as engrossing.
Check out this excellent video to have a close look!
Raven One is expected out at the end of Q2 which likely means by the end of this month. Stay tuned!

The video looks promising. And I agree with you, that a good mission isn’t necessarily just all about shooting at targets. Instead, just following some more complex RoE in a believable, authentic way can be very rewarding indeed.
