Operation Deadlock
1. SITUATION
Enemy Forces (S.A.L.U.T.E.):
– Size: 300–500 paramilitary troops with CSAT advisors.
– Activity: Securing weapons facilities, patrolling towns and compounds, maintaining high readiness.
– Location: Suspected command presence tied to industrial and administrative zones across Drakovac.
– Unit & Type: Mixed infantry, light technicals, MANPADS, limited armored reserves.
– Equipment: AK-series rifles, RPGs, mortars, technicals, MANPADS, possible APC support.
High-Value Target:
– General Marko Dragović (Regional Commander)
– Intel: Exact location unknown; believed to be moving between secured compounds. Legion and Panther must investigate designated POIs across Drakovac to confirm and eliminate him.
Friendly Forces:
– Legion: Primary strike element via HALO drop.
– Panther: Recon element to identify POIs and guide infiltration.
– ESPER: JTAC element to coordinate CAS and precision strikes.
– ACP: Holds retreat corridor to ensure safe exfil.
– Warhammer: Artillery support, on-call.
– ACE: Air Combat Element, ISR, and CAS.
2. MISSION
At 0200H, Legion, Panther, and ESPER will conduct a HALO drop onto Drakovac to sabotage OBJ Alpha and OBJ Bravo (weapons manufacturing plants) and locate and eliminate General Marko Dragović at one of the designated POIs (OBJ Charlie). Upon mission completion, all units will exfiltrate through the corridor secured by ACP.
3. EXECUTION
Commander’s Intent:
– Neutralize enemy weapons infrastructure, assassinate General Dragović, and exfiltrate intact to preserve combat power.
Concept of Operations:
– HALO insertion.
– Ground-based decision-making on sequencing of objectives and infiltration tactics.
– ESPER coordinates ACE and Warhammer for strikes only if stealth is compromised.
– ACP secures north-western corridor for exfiltration.
Tasks to Subordinate Units:
– Legion: Conduct sabotage operations at OBJs Alpha & Bravo; participate in Dragović elimination.
– Panther: Lead recon, locate Dragović at designated POIs, provide overwatch.
– ESPER: Provide JTAC guidance for emergency CAS/artillery.
– ACP: Secure retreat corridor and protect exfil routes.
– Warhammer: On-call artillery support.
– ACE: ISR, CAS, emergency extraction support.
Execution Details:
– ROE: Engage only mission-essential targets. Maintain stealth where possible.
4. ADMINISTRATION & LOGISTICS
Beans: No resupply expected until exfil.
Bullets: Standard combat load plus demolition charges; ammo conservation is critical.
Band-Aids: Limited field medkits; CASEVAC possible only via ACE Blackhawks during exfil.
Bad Guys: TPV militia with outdated Soviet gear supported by CSAT advisors and modern tech; General Dragović is priority kill target.
