Infiltration of Fort Vizor
Gamma 1 is only seen during the Special Operations Detachment infiltration of Fort Vizor in Lancaster during Operation Fury Scorpion. Gamma 1 drops Anvil Team at the Alvitr Central Security Garrison in Southeast Lancaster and provides air support for the unit on the twelfth floor before assisting 1st Infantry Brigade Combat Team forces on the ground below.

During exfiltration, Gamma 1 is shot down outside level twelve when two AE-57G Growler shoot down the Hawk with two AIM-9 Sidewinder air-to-air missiles, clipping the Hawk's tail and forcing it to crash into the Garrison's lower levels. All five crew members of the flight are killed.
