SITREP
The Ruhanista Forces RISDA (Ruha Independent Socialist Democratic Army) continue to be revolting – insufferable in some cases. They have defeat after defeat, and are now withdrawing into the interior of the population as they try to break contact to rebuild strength.
The RISDA have lost their captured Self Propelled Artillery Units and many of their T-72 variant tanks, light skin transport trucks, and the bulk of their munitions. The plan of using deliberate attacks on the civilian population to force a political shift in the Government has stalled. They have withdrawn into several positions throughout the region and are reconsolidating. They are in traditional order of battle configuration, and that most likely means they are continuing to operating in squad size units.
INTEL
The RISDA is withdrawing and reconsolidating in the deep woods, swamps and out of the way farms. It appears they have put a short hold on the sunrise attacks of civilian populated areas. RISDA Leadership is demanding the RMIF Command capitulate and hand over the Government to them. We believe this is a feint to delay surrendering and returning remaining resources back to the Ruha military.
There is no know use of Mines of IEDs in the area.
Weather: Well look, it is dark. It will get increasingly dark followed by a short bit of very dark just before the end of darkness as a slow increasingly bit of light moves in. There is a cool breeze blowing mostly northward and very cloudy. There is a possibility of precipitation expected for the next 2 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 our 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 tarets. The Platoon Leaders will coordinate movement and attack plans with Spartan as they move through their sector.
It is Spartan’s intent that TFA use Stealth and Surprise during this operation. I want to have small infiltration teams move into the C2 Headquarters to neutralize the night shift watch and plant explosives on the as much of the communications and IT equipment as possible. Additionaly, use stealth to maneuver to and plant explosives on the T72s within the target area.
When the operations goes loud, it is my intent that the engagements should be in strength and overwhelming, causing maximum destruction. Platoon leaders should plan on the use of Stealth to sneak into the Objective, then initiate with devastating blows to the Objective area.
EOD is to plant explosives on all notable targets, and the detonation of Demo is to be done at the Platoon Leaders discretion.
Platoons have a respawn M1151 M2 vehicle available for use equipped with an Arsenal. Spartan has an additional respawn M1151 M2 vehicle available if platoon respawn vehicles become unavailable.
RECONNAISSANCE PHOTOS
Enemy Forces
The RISDA is equipped with older Russian Weapons and Equipment. We have not seen evidence of Night Vision Capabilities, and they are still considered to be an ad-hoc force with limited combat experience. They have had several SPGs, Transport Trucks, T72 variant tanks and Mi8 generation helicopters. They are expected to loosely follow traditional Infantry tactics. There is no known use of Mines of IEDs in the area.
Friendly Forces
The Ruhanairian Government still has its hands full and the Ruha Military Force continues to mobilize and stabilize several of the larger cities. TFA has been tasked 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 M1151 M2 respawn vehicle available vicinity of Assembly Area. The Reinforcement Flag Poles will move platoon members to the Platoon Leaders M1097.
Rations: TEST Meal, Pseudo Food Like Paste Flavor 6 and Neotripolyglycol Drink Mix 2.
