Sea Dragons historical campaign
Sea Dragons historical campaign is set during the long and bloody battle at the Kuban bridgehead that lasted from the Spring until the middle of Autumn 1943, when the last troops of the occupying force retreated. The air forces of the Black Sea fleet played a major role in the fighting, striking airfields, seaports and surface targets and providing air cover for the troops of the North Caucasian front as well as supporting Soviet marine landings. This is the story of a former fighter pilot who has been transferred to the 47th Attack Aviation Regiment of the Black Sea Air Force after recovering from a serious wound. Incapable of flying a nimble fighter anymore and starting as a simple wingman once again, this time piloting an IL-2, he has a long road in front of him to eventually become the Deputy Commander of the regiment.
