In preparation for an assault of Fortshtadt Valley, a squad is sent to disrupt ground access between the airfield and the valley. The road from Zubodne is to be denied in order to delay ground reinforcements and restrict retreat avenues.

Insertion via littlebirds, stealth reconnaissance followed by mining the roads, marking targets of opportunity for artillery and evac via littlebird.

PANTHER 1 to be inserted by ZULU H via littlebird. LONGBOW 3 to support frontline operations while PANTHER 1 is inserting. LZ-A Insertion Alpha , secondary LZ-B Insertion Bravo Move on on foot to WP-1, being carefull of enemy patrols. OP-1 will serve as an initial waypoint position to cover the targeted mine area. PANTHER 1 to continue scouting ahead towards WP-2 and WP-3. Once WP-3 is reached, marking any targets of opportunity for LONGBOW 3 to . PANTHER 1 will then make their way back to the Target Mine Area and lay down Anti-Vehicle and Anti-Personell mines on and alongside the road. Once mines are laid, PANTHER 1 is to EXFIL via Insertion Alpha. In the event of compromise, Bailout 1 and Bailout 2 are used instead, whichever is closest. When given the signal, LONGBOW 3 to engage enemy targets.

ALL CALLSIGNS will cross the LD fully loaded according to the units SOP. These supplies will come from the staging area. This basic load is expected to sustain the team throughout the mission, without support.

LONGBOW 3 will perform 3 tasks: - support frontline operations (via ZULU H) - pre-calculate fire solutions to cover PANTHER 1 in case of fallback along Firezones A1-L2 - Fire on targets of opportunity as marked by PANTHER 1
