I have just uploaded my new campaign, Operation Exporter.
It is about the conflict between Great Britain and Vichy France in Syria and the Lebanon in June and July 1941.
British and Australian forces invaded these French colonies after the Vichy authorities granted landing rights to German and Italian aircraft on the way to and from Iraq. In a short campaign, the Allies defeated the French and thereby removed Axis power from the region, securing the oil fields in Iraq.
Although a short CFS2 campaign already exists about this episode, I decided to do a new one after I read an excellent book on the topic, "Dust Clouds in the Middle East" by Christopher Shores. The book contains a detailed day to day account of the campaign, providing a lot of information to make a CFS2 campaign.
The package contains two fighter campaigns, one from the French side, flying the Dewoitine 520, and another from the Allied side, where you fly the Hawker Hurricane and Curtiss P-40.
Apart from the these two campaigns, there are several missions flying various other airplanes that were used in the conflict. These are, on the French side, the Martin 167, Morane 406, LeO-451 and Loire 130 and on the Allied side the Bristol Blenheim and Beaufighter, Fairey Albacore and Swordfish, Gloster Gladiator and the Westland Lysander. In total, you get 71 missions in the package.
As soon as Rami approves the package, it should be available for download. I hope you have fun with it!
