SITREP
As we have seen, the Ruhanista Forces RISDA (Ruha Independent Socialist Democratic Army) are revolting, and rising upagainst the Ruhanairian Government here in Ruha. They have been seized control of several military units and are preparing to conduct attacks on the civilian population to force a political shift in the Ruha Government. They have moved into this region and continue operations during house of daylight.
The RISDA ae known to have captured several Self Propelled Artillery Units, and now we know they also have a number of T-72 variant tank along with a number of light skin transport trucks. They plan on using them on the civilian population centers to perpetrate fear and destruction to force a political shift in the Government. They have moved into several positions throughout the region and are preparing to conduct a sunrise attacks. They are in what appears to be in traditional order of battle configuration, and that most likely means they are continuing to operate in squad size units.
INTEL
The RISDA is expected to conduct a sunrise attacks on several civilian populated areas, then to seize the abandoned areas to create a secure operations center and use force projection to persuade the current Government to capitulate to their demands. We still do not fully understand why the RISDA is doing what it is doing, they themselves seem to be confused about their established political ideology, and other then demands to change the form of government they have not to date expressed how they want the government changed.
From Intelligence and Recon Photos they have SPGs, Transport Trucks, and T72 variant tanks. It is assumed the C2 (Command and Control) element is located in the operational area somewhere; it can be identified with a RISDA flag located in front of it.
There is no know use of Mines of IEDs in the area.
Weather: Still Dark, with increasing darkness followed by a short bit of ambient darkness just before the light, with a cool breeze blowing mostly northward and partly cloudy. No precipitation expected for the next 24 hours.
Terrain: Rolling hills with farmland and small urban areas, lightly wooded forests and farm lands having just been hayed.
MISSION
TFA conducts Deliberate Attacks on the RISDA forces during the hours of darkness to Find, Fix, and Destroy the RISDA targets identified in out sector.
EXECUTION
TFA has occupied an Assembly Area and TOC at our current location from the RV from our last mission. The Platoons have the land based vehicles located here to maneuver to the target area. The Platoon Leaders will decide what assets they want to use and how they will Find, Fix, and Destroy their assigned Targets. The RISDA Targets must be destroyed, find and report any Intelligence found.
TFA will operate as Platoon Leaders direct in the effort to find, fix and destroy the RISDA SPGs. The Platoon Leaders will coordinate movement and attack plans with Spartan as they move through their sector.
It is Spartan’s intent that TFA does not get decisively engaged during this operation, Platoon leaders should plan on the use of Stealth and patients to sneak into the Objective areas where suitable and the use of standoff weapons when appropriate. EOD is to plant explosives on all notable targets, and for the detonation of Demo be done at the Platoon Leaders discretion.
Platoons have a respawn M1097 vehicle available for use equipped with an Arsenal. Spartan has an additional respawn M1097 vehicle available if platoon respawn vehicles become unavailable.
RECONNAISSANCE PHOTOS
Enemy Forces
The RISDA is equipped with older Russian Weapons and Equipment. They have not shown they have Night Vision Capabilities, and are considered a hodge-podge force with limited combat experience. They have had several SPGs, Transport Trucks, and T72 variant tanks. They are expected to loosely following traditional Infantry tactics. There is no know use of Mines of IEDs in the area. Additionally the Ruha Military Force (RMIF) now reports several of their Mi-8 style helicopters are missing and expect them to be in the hands of the RISDA.
Friendly Forces
The Ruhanairian Government here in Ruha has its hands full and the Ruha Military Force continues to mobilize and stabilize several of the larger cities to quell the dissedents from further holding demonstrations and riots to loot and set fire the properties. Due to these recent activities, they are lacking the combat forces to conduct aggressive strikes, so they have tasked TFA to immediately continue to attack and destroy the RISDA’s capability to conduct operations in the area.
The Ruha Military Force conducts operations to consolidate and rearm and refit their broken forces. The Ruha Military Intelligence Force (RMIF) will provide any updates to TFA as they become available.
TFA Equipment
Each Platoon is equipped with an M1097 respawn vehicle available vicinity of Assembly Area. The Reinforcement Flag Poles will move platoon members to the Platoon Leaders M1097.
