Shifting International Dynamics: The Hazards of PMC Warfare
Set between Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 and
Tom Clancy's EndWar from the popular Ghost series, Tom Clancy's
HAWX takes place in a world where warfare is constantly
evolving--a time when state-sponsored militaries lack the funds
and personnel to modernize their forces and elite, private
mercenary groups have grown in size and to pick up the
slack. The Reykjavik Accords of 2012 defined the role of these
PMCs in combat, and they made it fully legal for these groups to
purchase from the international armaments market, leading to a
shift in the structure of global power. Over time,
you'll do battle on the front lines of both sides as this shift
reveals high-stakes arms threats and a terrifying glimpse of the
future.
HAWX: The Elite, High Altitude Warfare eXperimental Squadron
You'll begin the game as former U.S. Air Force Pilot David
Crinshaw, assigned to provide air support for the well-known
Ghost Recon team. You and your fellow HAWX pilots are some of the
most highly-trained spets in the world. Based out of
Langley Air Force Base in Virginia, you're tasked with everything
from testing secret and experimental aircraft weapon systems to
carrying out combat and recon missions, training other top
pilots, and attempting to capture enemy technologies.
With the rise of the PMCs, your unique skills in higher demand
than ever before. And with 49 playable planes available in game,
plus additional planes available to some pilots through pre-order
bonuses or VIP memberships, there's no shortage of sleek, fast,
deadly aircraft at your disposal as you put your skills to use.
An Iconic, Enhanced Reality System to Help You Deliver Results

advantage of it. Featuring incoming missile detection, an

E.R.S. This mode can be switched off at any time, deactivating
