The Messerschmitt 410 A-1 “Hornisse” (“hornet”) was developed as a replacement for the aging Bf 110 twin-engine heavy fighter, night-fighter, and light bomber. You, a new lieutenant, have been assigned to Kampfgeschwader 2 and tasked with delivering one of the first Me 410s to your unit in Normandy in 1943. You will fly night fighter and bomber missions during the “Baby Blitz” of England, serve temporary duty as a test pilot with Erprobungskommando 25 to experiment with new weapons systems during daylight bomber raids over Holland, and eventually try to survive the Allied Invasion of France in 1944.A fully voiced radio operator in the rear cockpit will comment on events, provide headings to the next waypoint, and read the checklist during takeoff and landing procedures. He is responsible for communicating with ground stations, operating the latest in radio guidance systems in the aircraft and contolling the rear gun turrets in the event of enemy contact. This experience is as close as you can get to bringing the history of the German heavy night fighter crews to life on your personal computer, especially if you use virtual reality goggles.  

This campaign requires both the Battle of Normandy and the Bodenplatte modules because its events span across England, Northern France and Netherlands.
