Rebel Raiders: Operation Nighthawk (or Rebel Raiders) is an action flight video game for the PC, Wii, and PlayStation 2. The PC and PlayStation 2 versions were released in 2006, while the Wii version was released on September 23, 2008

This budget-minded, sky-bound shooter puts PS2 gamers in the cockpits of futuristic, easy-to-fly aircraft, for fast-paced dog-fighting through a series of missions. Skilled virtual pilots score points that allow them access to special "top secret" planes and other unlockable content.

The player can choose from twenty available combat aircraft to fly with. Using machine guns and various missiles the player has to destroy enemy vehicles and structures to complete missions. Destroying enemy objectives also replenishes the player's shields which keeps him alive. New aircraft can be unlocked through completing missions.

STORY:
Operation Nighthawk is set in the near future after the human race gained control over solar system under the name of the Union of World Nations (UWN). During its quest to expand deeper into the solar system, the Union of World Nation's purpose shifted and corrupted. Because of their tyranny, a rebellion was built inside of the Union's own people named the Alliance of Independent States (AIS)(a group of small countries). The Alliance battles the Union via small, constant, air-based battles in an attempt to gain freedom. The player plays as the leader of the Ghost Squadron of the Alliance of Independent States Air Forces (AISAF), fighting the Union in a total of 16 levels
