Story
The player takes on the role of David Crenshaw, a US Air Force pilot and the squadron leader of an elite unit called H.A.W.X (“High Altitude Warfare Xperimental Squadron”). The game begins in 2014, with the Crenshaw providing air support for the Ghost Recon team, carrying out covert operations in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. After the mission, the Air Force deactivates the H.A.W.X. Squadron, Crenshaw and his wingmen are recruited into Artemis Global Security, a private military corporation.
For the next six years, Crenshaw and his squadron, as Flight Reaper, fly missions for Artemis and its clients, such as defending valuable oil installations, bombed the people of God’s army and destroyed insurgent camps. In 2021, Artemis signs a lucrative defense contract with Brazil that makes it one of the most powerful PMCs in the world. As expected, Las Trinidad, an anti-U.S. The Alliance South American PMC launches an invasion in Rio de Janeiro. But with the help of Crenshaw and his squad, Artemis and the Brazilian military are able to repel the invasion. After the conflict, the United States sends its forces to intervene, subverting Artemis’s role and causing its shares to fall. In response, Artemis takes on a lucrative contract with Las Trinidad and launches a surprise attack on the US Navy James Lawrence strike group in Magellan Strait. Unwilling to turn on his own country, Crenshaw and his squadron destroyed the powerful Artemis captain Myrmidon and his group of frigates in the area.
After the battle, the U.S. military sends Crenshaw and Gargoyle flying in a retaliation mission to destroy the Artemis Operations Center in the Caribbean Sea. The PMC, however, eliminates US communications and intelligence satellites and launches a massive preemptive strike on US soil, capturing its numerous cities and military bases. H.A.W.X and US forces defend Washington, DC and the President of the United States. Crenshaw and his squad assist the American counterattack against Artemis at Chicago and Norfolk Naval Base. In Japan, a lead flight of the Aviator of Thunder defended the USS Andrew Jackson Transportrier battle group from an Artemis naval fleet and air force.
As the U.S. gained the upper hand with help from Japan and NATO leader Artemis, who has taken at least twelve nuclear weapons from the Norfolk Naval Base storage depot, issues an ultimatum to the US president: surrender within 24 hours or watch the US be destroyed. H.A.W.X and the Ghost Recon team manage to restore space, land, air missile shield and help the US military secure a decommissioned US Army base in the Nevada desert where Artemis kept the stolen nuclear warheads. However, in a last-ditch effort, Artemis smuggles a nuclear warhead into Los Angeles and prepares to detonate it. Just a minute before the explosion, H.A.W.x locates and destroys the nuclear warhead and concludes the war.
