This is a new version of the 1st Air Commando Group Campaign for HSFX 4.1 or UP 2.0. There are new missions, targets, aircraft, and now features the LowerBurma map.

In this campaign you will play a pilot assigned to a new unit whose job it will be to provide strict air cover for Special Forces units in Burma. This unit is to be called the 1st Air Commando Group.

Thirteen C47's were acquired along with one hundred CG4A Waco Gliders for transport operations. For light aircraft L-5 Stinsons were chosen due to their ability to carry 2 or 3 stretchers. The fighter requirement was covered when thirty North American P51A Mustangs were acquired. For the strike element twelve North American B25H and J Mitchell bombers were obtained which were initially destined for the 14th Air Force.

On March 5, 1944 the first major joint operation involving Wingate’s Chindits and the 1st Air Commando Group is to begin. This operation, code named Operation Thursday will test the Chindits and the Air Commandos ability to work as one.

This Campaign will traverse the war in Burma from Operation Thursday to the Battle of Imphal, and the capture of Mandalay and Lower Burma in 1945.
