OPERATIONS ORDER
Operation Black Flag (2020), Exposure

--- OPERATIONS ORDER ---

Situation

Background Information
TNA have asked us and the wider black flag task force to tackle a delicate and potentially volatile problem within their borders of having to recon and gather intelligence on a hostile enemy force within their borders that are suspected of using biological agents and unethical means of capturing civilians. The TNA cannot spare any forces or assets as they are currently engaged in a terrorist uprising within the major cities so we are on our own and must deal with any threats that are opposed to us in the appropriate manner.

Friendly Forces
2x 5-man fire team consisting of (baker 1-10 -1x weapons team w/ DMR and medium machine gun buddy team (baker 1-2)-1x fireteam w/ DMR and medium AT buddy team 1x sniper team (watchman 1-3) Light calibre sniper team -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** due to biohazard threat all personnel will be issued with breathing apparatus **

Supporting Assets
Friendly forces are stationed in a brickyard and surveying and collecting intel on hostiles from sites that have been seen via low earth orbit satellite in the towns of Jilavur and Khushab as well as others but currently have no supporting assets other that what are stationed within the AO.

Enemy Forces
***UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME***

Mission

Tasking
To gather intelligence, identify and repel enemy forces from the north western sector of the takistan mountains and save civilians if possible without exposing yourself of the task force to any unfavourable circumstances.

End-state
After gathering intelligence and securing the towns and enemy assets in question we are to hold the town of Jilavur in a defensive position until the initial black flag force can be supplemented by a secondary security team once the enemy push has been stopped.

Execution

Commander's Intent
The purpose of this operation is to gather intelligence on a newly budding enemy force, respond to reported disappearance of local civilians and eliminate any resistance in the AO. A satellite scan from the Black Flag HQ has provided intel on both confirmed and suspected hostile emplacements to assist the Black Flag 20 with the scheme of operations.

Tasks and Sequencing
PHASE 0: Preparation - ALL CALLSIGNS will receive gas masks and antidotes to ensure personal protection in the event of CBRN exposure. -- Details of PPE use and activation will be discussed during opening brief. - Watchman 1-3 departs early for OP-Bronze to gather initial intel on Objective Sapphire. PHASE 1: Infil - BAKER 1 departs towards RP-A. - Using available cover and concealment, BAKER 1-1 & BAKER 1-2 enter assigned sectors of Objective Sapphire. - Actions on taking contact: squad-level bounding towards Objective Sapphire. PHASE 2: Objective Sapphire - BAKER 1-2 captures northwestern guard post, eliminates all immediate resistance and establishes BOF towards NW and E. - BAKER 1-1 captures eastern guard post and eliminates all immediate resistance. -- BAKER 1-1 will assault the final guard post once BAKER 1-2 has established eastern BOF. - Watchman 1-3 crosses valley towards OP-Silver to recon further objectives once BAKER 1-2 has established NW BOF. PHASE 3: Movement to Contact - BAKER 1 moves to RP-B using substantial defilade to reduce probability of contact. - BAKER 1 moves to RP-C using available concealment to further delay contact. -- Once RP-C has been reached, initiate squad-level bounding towards Objective Ruby. - Actions on preemptive contact: squad-level bounding towards Objective Ruby. PHASE 4: Objective Ruby - Acting on Intel gathered through Watchman 1-3, ALL CALLSIGNS initiate assault on Objective Ruby to secure suspected signal jammers. - Once seized, Watchman 1-3 moves to OP-Gold to gather intel on further objectives. PHASE 5: Objective Emerald - BAKER 1 moves to investigate reported missing civilians and gas clouds in the town of Khushab. - Watchman 1-3 to determine any enemy presence and composition. Scheme of operations to be established with intel. - Note: Use of chemical agents reported. Civilians expected. Enemy presence not confirmed. PHASE 6: Movement to Contact - BAKER 1 moves to RP-D using available concealment to delay contact. -- Once RP-D has been reached, initiate squad-level bounding towards Objective Diamond. - Actions on preemptive contact: squad-level bounding towards Objective Diamond. PHASE 7: Objective Diamond - BAKER 1 captures reported command center. -- BAKER 1-1 secures eastern sector before assaulting suspected HQ from the north. -- BAKER 1-2 secures western sector before assaulting suspected HQ from the south. - Watchman 1-3 assists with priority targets and area recon. PHASE 8: Security & Exfil - BAKER 1 ensures perimeter defense around HQ while securing extraction via BANDIT H. - Watchman 1-3 moves to a position enabling timely extraction.
