The year is 2003. The conflict in Iraq takes longer than the Allied forces have estimated. Civil unrest makes it harder for the forces to maintain normal security in the main cities and the uprising amongst the Kurds in the north puts strains in the relationship between the US-installed government and the NATO country Turkey. With Bush putting Syria on top of the 'Axis of Evil' list, the US government sends an additional 50 000 soldiers in preparation of a third invasion in the Middle East.
The sheer number of NATO forces tied up in the region makes it clear to military analysts that other large campaigns will be delayed or made impossible due to lack of resources. At the same time a group of high ranking military personnel in the Swedish High Command bring out a secret plan laid out in the beginning of the 20th century and begins to update it to modern standard.
A misty Sunday morning in the year 2007, five helicopters drop units from the secret elite special ops group SSG near a base at the border, while a battalion of tanks from regiment P7 enters the country, all according to plan.
Much more realistic than DC. Yes, there are no parachutes but that means you actually have to learn to fly/land and can't rely on Kamikaze tactics. Weapon selection is adequate and the tank damage is significantly more impressive than previous mods. Would like a little more added to the terrain -- too many are just wide open spaces.

I click on silent heroes launcher and the screen goes black with the mouse. It does nothing at all... WHAT IS WRONG?

Not bad... just not terribley good either. No planes, no parachutes, tanks that require driver AND gunner/s all make this less fun to play. No match for DC.
