SITREP:
The island of Nogova has undergone a coup by the Nogovan Freedom Alliance (NFA). They have displaced the current western “advised” governorship, who they believe are puppets under the control of western powers.
The island governor has been taken captive, and several western contractors and “advisers” are missing. No ransom demands or threats have been made on these operatives, so it is assumed at this time that they have not yet been captured and have gone into hiding.
The NFA have persuaded many of the current Nogovan military to join their ranks, substantially increasing their numbers and assets. The remainder of the loyal military have been taken prisoner and interred in re-education camps.
MISSION:
A full scale invasion to restore the governorship has been planned and authorised. It is TFAs tasking to neutralise key AA and Comms sites to blind and deafen the NFA command and clear an air corridor for the invasion force.
TFA will then secure the airfield and defend against counter attack to allow the main invasion force flown in by a C17 Globemaster (callsign Earlybird) to successfully deploy.
Map
Tactical Overview:
This is a split platoon operation with overall coordination via Overlord due inter-service co-operation.
After a successful HALO insertion, TFA will acquire transport from the objective marked (this is a minor command unit with barracks and will be heavily manned). The platoons will then split and become autonomous and traverse their chosen loop (either North or South) and complete their objectives before proceeding to their assault FUPs.
Alpha and Hotel will then co-ordinate a simultaneous assault on the airfield. When enemy forces have been neutralised TFA will dig in using existing bunkers and other constructed defences and repel any attacks until the main force has landed and deployed.
Mission Execution:
- After brief, prep for HALO jump (parachutes in green lit area).
- Perform HALO insertion and regroup.
- Proceed as a company and acquire the vehicles from the marked objective.
- Platoons now split and execute their chosen loop.
- Platoons will then proceed to their assault FUPs and execute a simultaneous attack.
- Set up defensive positions and repel counter attack.
- NO TFA units to be inside the airfield once Earlybird has been called.
- Mission complete once invasion force has been deployed.
