Baltic Campaign 1976

November 25, 2025

Baltic Campaign 1976 (packaged, Stand-Alone) is here, and here and here .  Currently, this version only includes the NATO side of the campaign.  The USSR side of the campaign is currently under overhaul, and is planned to be included with this set in the near future.  {Note: this updated stand-alone version is NOT in the current Playset.  It will be included in the next Playset release.}  Be sure to read the installation instructions found inside the .zip file, labeled READ ME .txt .

This is a 40-mission fictional campaign that takes place from July 06, 1976 to September 22, 1976.  The campaign is based on the default Baltic Campaign 2010, but with many customizations.  Unlike some other usnraptor campaigns that require the Playset to run, Baltic Campaign 1976 is now a stand-alone campaign set. This means it is designed to run solely in a default Fighters Anthology installation that has been properly patched to version 1.02.  {For gallery pictures, scroll down.}

Campaign Features:

- Player flies nine different classic aircraft and six different mission types. 

- All missions posted as both Single Missions and Campaign Missions.

- Fairly semi-moderate missions, making this a fun campaign for semi-experienced FA players.

- Player's aircraft is pre-armed and fueled with the "ideal" mission loadout, for every mission.

- Player guide giving a brief mission description and goals, labeled "Baltic Mission Desciptions.txt". 

- Player guides to defeating difficult missions in the missions' Debrief - Mission Failure section.

- Two special codes used.  (example: "This is Aeroflot Flight 261. Emergency!") 

- A wide collection of classic shapes/textures from a multitude of user mods.

- New and/or improved aircraft, ships, and weapon systems.

 

Campaign development history

July 9, 2018, posted on FARC Forum in the Campaign / Mission Scenarios thread, my wishes to one day build a campaign involving aircraft rarely seen/flown in the game, such as the Buccaneer, Draken, Jaguar, Starfighter, etc...

August 9, 2019, posted in the same thread, the idea of taking existing campaigns and remaking them in different time periods.

November 11, 2019, posted in the same thread, my intentions to convert the Baltic Campaign 2010 to take place in 1975 (eventually being 1976).

December 4, 2019, published Baltic Campaign 1976, with players flying for NATO forces.  It was packaged with the release of Playset 2.0.

August 26, 2020, published Baltic Campaign 1976, with players flying for Soviet (USSR) forces.  It was packaged with the release of Playset 2.5.

June, 2024, with the Playset breaching the Fighters Anthology 'total file limit', it was decided to convert all campaigns to stand-alone projects. Baltic Campaign 1976 was chosen 8th in line for conversion.

August 02, 2025, upon completing the conversion for the Vietnam Campaign set, I began work on a major overhaul of the Baltic 1976 campaigns.  The goal was to bring the campaigns up to the new standard of usnraptor campaign builds, allowing for more customization of time period equipment and capabilities.

November 25, 2025, Baltic Campaign 1976 - NATO is published as a stand-alone project, along with this website.  Interestingly, more time was spent on the overhaul than the original build.

[Month] ##, 202#, combined Baltic Campaign 1976 - NATO with -USSR in one package, and published.
