Operation order
Situation
Background Information
After a successful sabotage of the enemy artillery and anti-air capabilities inside Radovanka Quarry, command has authorized a raid on Kozik Comms Base. Kozik communication and radar base is a major asset for the enemy, thus destroying it will be a huge blow to the enemy as they will lose their long-range radar capabilities and hinder their communication with troops stationed outside of Kordun, thus delaying reinforcements into Kordun (Šumava) from outside regions.
Friendly Forces
Special Forces team "DELTA".
Supporting Assets
- None in immediate area of operation.
- Members of "Sokolov" Battalion can come to aid only on the northern bank of the river.
- Members of "Sokolov" Battalion can come to aid only on the northern bank of the river.
Enemy Forces
- Detailed recon of the area with a drone is not possible due to proximity to enemy radar and AA.
- Route to the comms base takes the SF team behind enemy lines, so a lot of enemy movement is to be expected.
- Expected mostly infantry on premise with light vehicle or APC support.
- If the element is detected, the nearby military base and airfield will activate heavy QRF with both rotary and heavy armour assets.
- Delta team should by all means avoid any major enemy military installation or big town.

Tasks and Sequencing
PHASE 0
After briefing DELTA 1 Will step off following the blue line towards OP-1 where we setup to cros the river avoiding getting spotted by enemy patrols and make a smooth transition to the south side.
We will continue forwards AP-1 where we will try to find a way trough the enemy defenses without getting spotted.
PHASE 1
This is the assault phase once a route has been found towards the entry of multiple bunker entrances marked Hotel ,Golf ,Julliet.
We will pick the easiest and most stealthy one we will enter the complex
1 = Julliet
2 = Golf
3 = Hotel
Once entered in the bunker we will flow trough the compound where 1 team assaults a room or a bunker and the other holds rear security switching up depending on team health and combat effectiveness.
Tasking is
- to gather intel
- destroy assets
- Disable radar building
Sapper is required to bring enough charges
Critical notes : Speed is key we can not be to long pinned down. Our strength is surprise and stealth at the start after that our tactics . We can not risk the operation this comes first above all.
PHASE 2
Extracting from the radar base will depends on where we are able to get out the bunker we have 2 options
First option
Extract the same way we came in on going back to FOB Cviček using assets of the enemy where possible or deemed needed.
Second option
We extract east in to the forest and towards the Safe house we should not lead the enemy towards the safe house but we need to lose them before we can go there
