    Carrier Assault returns as Top Gun: Carrier Strike

    Top Gun: Carrier Strike brings back Carrier Assault, with infantry, naval and air squads working together to breach and destroy the enemy aircraft carrier on Tsuru Reef.

    A new combined-arms mode where infantry, naval and air squads work together to destroy the enemy carrier.

    • Carrier Assault returns as a reimagined combined-arms experience in which infantry, naval and aviation squads must work together to destroy the enemy aircraft carrier. Ground forces break through the opposition and secure the path forward, naval units support the assault, and aviators fight for control of the skies. Victory is secured by successfully breaching and destroying the opposing carrier. Tsuru Reef has been expanded with playable aircraft carriers to support it, and while carriers appear as environment in Conquest and Escalation, full carrier gameplay is exclusive to this mode. It arrived with the Top Gun event in Game Update 1.4.2.0.

    TipIf you want to fight on a carrier rather than around one, queue this mode specifically: on Tsuru Reef in Conquest and Escalation the carriers are environment only. EA frames it as three jobs at once, so a squad that only flies leaves the ground push that secures the path forward unmanned.
