Situation

Background Information

An unknown contact has reached out to British Armed Forces stating that he has information which may help us in our fight against Islamic State. He has requested we meet him face to face. He goes by the callsign Sparrowhawk and can be found with the saying "The Bird kills two rabbits in the morning."

Friendly Forces

A Fireteam Sized group of SAS Operatives.

Supporting Assets

The Town that will be entered is fully occupied by Islamic State the only known friendly force is those working under Sparrowhawk.

Enemy Forces

We are aware that the enemy could have access to the following:
Small Arms
Anti-Tank Arms
Non-Standard Tactical Vehicles
Light Armour
Medium Armour

Mission

Tasking

You are to infiltrate two Islamic State occupied towns and gather information about what they have access to by utilizing a Quad-copter for photography from the Air. Whilst the other team moves in and attempts to find Sparrowhawk's men.

End-state

The objective will be complete once sufficient information has been gathered. Being found out will result in the mission being compromised.

Execution

Commander's Intent

SAS Operatives are to enter the town without the use of Standard issue equipment as civilians. One group will be stationed outside with a Quad copter which should be used for photography of anything that the enemy has access to whilst the second fireteam moves in through the town in search of Sparrowhawk's men. By doing this we will gain a foot in the battles ahead.

Tasks and Sequencing

Operatives are to load an un-traced civilian vehicle with appropriate BAF gear in-case the situation esculates. They are then to disguise as civilians, what type of civilians will be up to the fireteam leader. The operatives are to find a well covered area for the UAV to operate from which will be supported by a marksman.
