Execution

Commander's Intent
CoyCO intention for the mission is to aerial insert a platoon of infantry to the South-east side of Kinduf under the cover of darkness in order to set up an assault on the communications compound of the airfield. Once we go loud and assault, the vehicles will join us in a co-ordinated methodical push North then West, clearing out the airfield and ancillary structures across 3 phases.

Tasks and Sequencing
Phase 0 consists of; Wolf plt transiting via C-17 to the DZ and Halo inserting, maintaining stealth as they push up to APs near the communication compound [OBJ-JUPITER]. Groundhog, fox and badger to transit unseen from their startex point to a hold-off point South of the airfield until given the go-ahead to approach the airfield. Hold-off point to be confirmed just prior to mission. Phase 1: A scheduled bombing strike of the main defence line to the West will mark the commencement of our assault on the Kinduf sector. Wolf assaults and secures OBJ-JUPITER. Groundhog moves up to support positions to prevent enemy QRFs and vehicles from attacking Wolf plt. Fox also moves to close support the infantry, assisting with targets inside JUPITER if needs be. Badger holds to the South- picking up ay dropped logpaks and assisting with medical/ repair needs when necessary. Lightning on interception of enemy QRFs to the North and East, and assisting with hard targets in the Kinduf sector when requested Hawk on recon and quick CAS runs when needed Phase 2: Wolf splits teams between the Barracks area and the line of structures on the Eastern side of Phase 2, moving South to North. OBJ-PLUTO is a commander's residence- capturing him could prove useful and should be attempted. Groundhog, Fox, Badger, Lightning, Hawk taskings unchanged. Phase 3: Wolf secures ATC and ancillary structures to the South of the urban area of Kinduf. Wolf then readies for CQB assault on urban area of Kinduf marked as OBJ-Mars. The central tall buildings are reportedly bunks for low-level ISIS officers for the region and should be attacked with potential E-POW capture in mind. Fox to move to close-support of infantry in urban area, assisting with heavy fire support and mobile cover when needed. Groundhog, Badger, Lightning, Hawk taskings unchanged. As a stretch objective, there is a hospital with potential POWs to the West of the airfield marked as OBJ-MERCURY. If possible, we will investigate and secure.
