[CLOSED] Operation No Reprieve

9th of January, 2016
World situation

One week ago, while executing a routine flight, one of our SU-34s got too close to the Chernarus border and was shot down without a chance to correct its course. After being struck by an anti-air missile, the plane executed a forced landing in the countryside. When contacted about the matter, the Chernarussian government refused to hand over the two pilots and the plane's wreckage, claiming they must face trial before any release. This is a clear mockery of the Russian Federation and will not be tolerated. Chernarus was issued a 48-hour ultimatum - ''return what is ours, or prepare for war''. Unfortunately, that ultimatum expired 3 hours ago, and as such, we are going to war again, and your company has been selected to take part in the naval and air assault.

Tactical Situation

A snowstorm is currently in effect in Chernarus, meaning our VDV element cannot deploy. Regardless, the naval assault must continue, we cannot allow the enemy even more time to organize. Your company has been selected to assault from the East and push further inland along the Solnichniy - Dolina -  Gorka line. Other elements are operating in the AO, but they shouldn't interfere with you.  Air support is not possible due to the weather conditions, but you have full access to naval artillery VIA your JTAC. A reserve battalion will trail your movements and garrison any locations you capture while securing your rear.

Mission Briefing

Your primary mission objective is to seize as much ground as possible from the CDF (Chernarussian Defence Force) in your designated AO. The secondary objective is the rescue of our two downed pilots and the SU-34, but for the moment we lack any solid INTEL on their locations. You are encouraged to keep your eyes peeled for anything of interest: documents, laptops (expect to find those in fortified compounds), maybe civilians willing to collaborate or surrendering enemies you can interrogate. You will start on the Destroyer Ekaterin and will head directly for LZ Pavel from there. Thanks to the weather conditions, the Ekaterin is able to drop you off 1 km away from the shore without being seen so that you can launch the assault directly in your BTR-80s and assault boats. Your first objective in this offensive will be to capture Solnichniy, including the Quarry and Industrial Zone to the West.  We expect an enemy counter-attack, which you will have to repel. After the successful defence, you will be supplied with more vehicles. Your next objectives will be further up the valley, namely the towns of Dolina and Polana. Intel indicates that the enemy has an ammo cache in Dolina, and the factory near Polana acts as a vehicle repair depot. Both are objectives you will have to tackle. For support, you have access to resupply on demand from the reserve battalion securing your rear, and some replacement vehicles and the JTAC can use his drone terminal to call in naval artillery, should you need it.

Threat Report

Thanks to our ultimatum, the enemy is aware of the incoming invasion, and they had some time to prepare. Expect to be met with fortified positions. Recon suggests that most of the CDF's tanks are bogged down in snow, so you will have to deal with mainly MRAPS, BTRs and BRDMs to try and stop your advance in the AO. CDF uses a different camo from us, so target ID should not be a problem. Just like our air force, the CDF's is also grounded by the storms, so expect no air threat. You will most likely encounter some sort of enemy resistance anywhere you go.

Mission Objectives

• Primary Objective 1 - Secure as much ground as possible from the CDF As the name suggests, you will move from hamlet to hamlet, from town to town and base to base along your designated line securing them and eliminating any enemy threat. Do not worry about the enemy retaking them, there is a reserve force trailing you for that.
• Primary Objective 2 - Discover the location of and recover the pilots The main reason we are invading here, is our two pilots and the advanced jet they were flying. Both must be rescued at any cost. Any input from your company or other elements operating in Chernarus will go a long way. Keep your eyes peeled for INTEL. If something solid is found and happens to be near you, you will have the honour of recovering it, otherwise, the INTEL hunt alone will be your contribution.
• Secondary Objective 1 - Secure LZ Pavel HQ has determined LZ Pavel to be the least defended stretch of the coast near your AO. You are to land there in force and secure it. Expect a strong counter-attack.
• Secondary Objective 2 - Secure Solnichniy Self-explanatory, secure the town and the 2 adjacent objectives, the Industrial District and the Quarry. Look for fortified buildings, they might have officers/intel to aid in your search.
• Secondary Objective 3 - Secure Dolina
• Secondary Objective 4 - Find and destroy the ammo cache near Dolina Along with the vehicle repair depot, the enemy has an ammo cache in this part of Chernarus. It has been determined more wise to destroy them and deny the enemy access to these facilities.
• Secondary Objective 5 - Secure Polana
• Secondary Objective 6 - Destroy the vehicle repair depot near Polana
