Operation: Javelin was an operation in 2021 which David Crenshaw and H.A.W.X. Squadron defended three teams of Ranger Battalion as they retake a decommissioned US Army base in Nevada Desert.
Briefing[]
Major Derrick Wallace: Captain Crenshaw, I wish I could say otherwise, but you've got another tough job ahead of you. Thanks to the successful shuttle launch at Cape Canaveral, we were able to restore the S.L.A.M.S. satellite network and we're now working to re-initialize the system at the Command Uplink Node in the Appalachians and calibrate the replacement laser platforms. The techs inform me this could take anywhere from four to six hours. Fortunately, we've received word from the NSA that they've managed to locate the warheads at a decommissioned US Army base in the Nevada desert. Artemis is gathering all its remaining forces for a last ditch defense around the nukes. We're sending all available forces to hit the base and recover the warheads. We can't take the chance that Artemis won't decide to disperse the warheads and make them even harder to find. We don't have many pilots left, but we have the H.A.W.X. I want you to support the offensive and provide close air support to the forces on the ground. We've got your birds refueled and waiting on the ramp. Good luck and good hunting.
Outcome[]
H.A.W.X. Squadron protects Alpha, Bravo and Charlie teams of Ranger Battalion as they advanced to the base. Once the Tiger Flight neutralized the base's air defense system, H.A.W.X. Squadron destroyed all Artemis forces so the Ranger Battalion could secure the nuclear warheads. They discovered that one warhead was missing.
