Tasks and Sequencing
PHASE 1
ALL CALLSIGNS will insert via SEALION 1-3 to LZ-Triton. If the LZ is safe, dismount there, if not, move to a safer location for dismount
Once TRIDENT has dismounted and organized, movement towards the ION FOB will commence.
Upon arrival at the FOB TRIDENT will bound into the FOB before clearing their respective sides of the FOB
SEALION 1-3 will ensure no enemies attack from behind or hills.
PHASE 2
Upon clearance of ION FOB ALL CALLSIGNS will move towards the southern entrance of the ION AIRFIELD, staying in defilade where possible
The airfield will be cleared in order of the sectors, any crossing of runways will be done via smoke and suppression from SEALION 1-3 or by mounting up in SEALION 1-3 depending on the situation.
During clearing SEALION 1-3 is expected to cover for TRIDENT by destroying any approaching enemy vehicles or infantry or by suppression of enemy positions.
