  • Two famous air bases handcrafted and reimagined on the Cam Lao Nam map.
  • Fly any aircraft included in S.O.G Prairie Fire and Unsung Redux.
  • Optionally, replay any mission with random weather and time of day.
  • Besides custom missions, you can also play an infinite number of randomized missions, choosing any aircraft you want.

Known issues
  • Switching to other units while playing/dying is not supported. Upon death, just restart the mission.
  • Deformer plugin is needed, it was used to edit terrains for air bases.
  • No saves available, due to performance issues. Successful missions are instead flagged as completed, and not selectable when selecting the next mission to play. Persistent on restarts. Most missions are short, so shouldnt be a major problem.
  • Bomb sight for high altitude heavy bomber, its not visible above ~1600 meters, due to it´s implementation with dive bombing in mind.
  • Read briefing-> mission notes, and controller/action notes for important info on some aspects of the game.
  • If stuck in "flyby/target" camera mode. Just press CAPS LOCK to get back to player view.
