- — Rainmaker to his pilots
Colonel Frank "Rainmaker" Ostreger is a pilot and engineer and former member of the United States Air Force. After he disobeyed orders and caused collateral damage during the First Gulf War, he was given a choice of going to Fort Leavenworth prison or retirement. He believed that he had the green-light to engage. He blamed his wingman Dagger, and it turned out that Dagger had black-balled him behind the scenes. Afterward, he formed the PMC DDI and was very successful. He believed the future was about corporations. He had a diplomatic team which started 16 wars behind the scenes, and designed his own UAVs.
In the near future, Dagger's son Arrow went to work for him. In response to DDI's disregard for the rules of war, Arrow left and rejoined the H.A.W.X. squadron. Obsessed with power, Rainmaker convinced the pilot Ringo to defect as a means of evening the score and had him killed while testing drones.
Rainmaker then started a covert war against the H.A.W.X. squadron. His hidden base was eventually destroyed by Arrow and Major Zeal and the two chased after Rainmaker. He tried firing the Firestorm satellite, and fell into Zeal's trap. He flew into the Firestorm beam and was destroyed. His plans to extort the world with his fleet of UAVs patterned after Arrow then fell apart.
