WARNORD 21 AUG 20 - Mission: Griffin

 

1. SITUATION

 

After nearly five years of civil war, the rebel Freedom and Independence Army (FIA) hangs on the brink of collapse. Rebuilt from the ashes of the Altis Armed Forces (AAF) following Colonel Akhanteros’ death, it has suffered defeat after defeat against Altian Loyalists and their NATO Coalition allies.

 

With Kavala and Pyrgos recaptured, Loyalists have begun mopping up Altis. However, significant FIA forces remain on Stratis. With military assistance from CSAT, rebels have fortified Stratis Air Base and are preparing to make a last stand. NATO units have joined their Loyalist counterparts for the final assault against the base. Team Hoplite has been transferred to Air Station Mike 26.

 

2. MISSION

Task Force Helios is ordered to join the NATO Coalition assault on Stratis Air Base. Team Hoplite’s primary objective is the airfield control tower at OBJ Andrakla. You must disable CSAT ground control operations to prevent enemy reinforcements from landing. Your secondary objective is the airbase HQ at OBJ Bourdeto. Kill/capture FIA MAJ Kottas and destroy FIA/CSAT Command, Control, and Communications capabilities on site. Your tertiary objective is to neutralize all additional FIA/CSAT targets in the AO. Secure the base for NATO Command insertion.
