Description[]
All three surviving HAWX pilots are reunited under the command of Colonel Crenshaw. The shell-shocked group has no choice but to regroup and start fighting back. Their first job is to help a task force of marines take over an oil facility that has been seized by insurgents.
Mission[]
After a large insurgent force had seized ArnaCo's oil drilling facility in the Indian Ocean, the H.A.W.X. squadron was deployed on the aircraft carrier USS Franklin D. Roosevelt to retake the facility. Three pilots remained in the squadron are Lieutenant Colonel Simms, Majors Rebecca Walters and Alex Hunter escorted the assault forces of the Marine Corps and captured an airstrip, which they used as a springboard to recapture the ship loading, main and secondary facilities. After the mission, the squadron returned to the carrier.
