Background Information
After we cleared the area of dorut last week, we captured 1 POW who was incharge of bunkers watching over routes towards the airfield and the northern area of syria, we have since interrogated him and Through enhanced interrogation he has revealed to us where the top 3 people who control the northern defense outside the airfield are being kept and who they are.
Friendly Forces
Squad of US Tier 1 Operators with support from a USAF Global Hawk.

Low chance of Syrian Police in area.
Enemy Forces
Expect Islamic State foot soldiers ranging from insurgents to bodyguards, possible medium armored vehicles alongside non-standardized armed vehicles.
Mission
Tasking
Infiltrating the northern defenses of Kalae Noowi Airfield to capture 3x HVTs which will be displayed in the brief on the day.
End-state
Once the 3 HVTs have been captured the squad are clear to RTB.
Execution
Commander's Intent
Echo will deploy in 3x Black SUVs to capture 3 HVTs at their locations OBJ1 through OBJ3. Maintaining stealth throughout to avoid enemy response forces, quick surgical strikes at each objective will be key.


Tasks and Sequencing
Phase 1
Deploy from FOB Jabba- movement along route Yellow to Dismount X-Ray. Echo actual holds at OP1 whilst 1-1 and 1-2 push quickly and stealthily along the South side of Alfaraz. Hit target building (terraced shops) and extract HVT1.
Phase 2
Re-mount, movement along Yellow route to Dismount Yankee. Echo actual holds OP2 with 1-1 and 1-2 pushing along available route to Objective 2. Extraction of HVT2 back to OP2 by 1-1 for handover to Echo actual. 1-2 to move South for setup on Objective 3.
Phase 3
1-1 assault from Western side, 1-2 from Eastern side. Destroy enemy presence at Objective 3 quietly and setup for arrival of HVT3. Upon arrival, allow HVT3 to enter compound before ambushing and taking out guards. Capture HVT3 and all return to vehicles for exfil back to FOB Jabba.
HVT3 at Objective 3 arrives at 2am- with this in mind, the friendly force will deploy at midnight, giving 2 hours to reach Objective 3 and take out the defences within.
