Operation Rising Lion, 2025

June 13, 2025: The world holds its breath. After years of shadow wars and diplomatic failures, the crisis with Iran has reached its boiling point. Intelligence is unequivocal: Iran is on the cusp of developing a nuclear weapon, a threat the State of Israel cannot allow to materialize. The time for talk is over. As commander of the Israeli Defense Forces, you are about to launch Operation Rising Lion, the most complex and audacious military operation in a generation. This is a single, decisive strike to dismantle Iran's nuclear ambitions permanently. But this will be no simple bombing run. Iran has turned its territory into a fortress. A dense, deeply layered Integrated Air Defense System (IADS) stands between your forces and their targets. From the advanced SA-10s to the mobile Tor-M1s, a web of lethal surface-to-air missiles guards the approaches. One mistake, one deviation from the plan, and your multi-billion dollar aircraft will be turned into falling debris. Your Mission: Take command of the entire Israeli air campaign. Success will require meticulous planning and flawless execution across multiple, simultaneous phases: Spearhead the Attack: Utilize the F-35I "Adir" stealth fighters to punch the initial holes in the enemy's defenses, striking the most hardened and critical targets. Unleash the Hammer: Command waves of F-15I "Ra'am" and F-16I strike eagles, launching standoff munitions from within the corridors you have violently carved out of the sky. Defend the Homeland: As you strike deep into enemy territory, brace for the inevitable counter-attack. A storm of ballistic missiles and drones is already being prepared. You must manage Israel's multi-layered air defense network to protect your cities from annihilation. Features: A complex, high-intensity, large-scale scenario based on a realistic near-future conflict. Dozens of IAF aircraft to manage, including tankers, EW platforms, and CAP fighters. High-stakes objectives with no room for error. I'm kidding. T
