Objectives
Alpha Company is ordered to assault Boriana Airbase (OBJ Ardent) to disrupt ongoing Wagner Group operations. First Platoon is tasked with killing/capturing HVT CPT Piotr Usatov, who has set up his HQ on the airstrip.
First Platoon will then assault OBJ Bottleneck to seize control of the road that enters/exits the airbase.
Widowmakers are ordered to hold Boriana Airbase until relieved by Lithuanian forces.
3CAB is ordered to provide aerial insertion and extraction, in addition to scout and CAS functions.
Accidents
4x KIA due to a mass casualty incident.
Areas of Strength
Squad communication and coordination.
Areas of Weakness
Field situational awareness. Team leaders and members needs to evaluate the surroundings, report, and make tactical decisions based of their assessment rather than proceeding to follow the SL's original orders.
Suggested Improvements
Squad leaders should communicate more especially when paired together to work on certain objectives. I have seen squads pushing objectives without relaying the information over the radio which leaves the other squads having to rely on their equipment to check when certain squad move forward.
Mission Summary
4th squad dusted off from the FOB in a blackhawk that went directly to LZ Water. Upon reaching the LZ, we have deployed the ropes and proceeded to rappel down and went forward to a rally point that was set by platoon command. From the RP marker, we proceeded to move forward and cleared the small town that was south of it. After clearing the town, we proceeded to our position just to the east of objective "Bottleneck". Once the assigned squad to setup a SBF position has accomplished their task, 4th squad together with 1st squad went in and cleared the town of Kobband. Upon taking very minimal casualties during the process, we pushed up due west and cleared another town of hostiles midway of the next objective. During that point, we have received sniper fire south east of our position which was swiftly dealt with the supporting squad.
After clearing the small town midway of the 2nd objective, we then proceeded to push and spearhead the assault on objective "Ardent" where we were able to breach the defenses but took a fireteam size casualty which incapacitated the whole squad to move forward. With that, 1st squad continued to move forward in the eastern part of the airfield while 4th squad Phoenix recuperate from the fireteam size casualty that it took as a result of the assault.
Upon getting back to a functional squad strength, we then proceeded to assault the center of the airfield where AA's and BMP's were positioned. 1st squad took a mass casualty as 4th squad took yet another fireteam sized casualty due to the assault. After an "all clear" of BMP's in the area was broadcasted over the radio, 4th squad's fireteam capacity was tasked to go to 1st squad's marker to reinforce and treat the wounded. Little did we know, one BMP was left active which eventually wiped out the majority of 1st and 4th squad. (during this incident, we had 4x KIA) After the remining squads were able to rush in and eliminate the remaining BMP, 4th squad was tasked to push down south together with 1st as originally planned.
Upon clearing the sector, we engaged and eliminated an enemy MI-24 that flew over us. After shooting down the enemy rotorcraft, 4th squad was tasked to go back to the main gate to provide security wherein we engaged multiple enemy infantry forces towards the north of the main gate. After successfully repelling enemy attacks, we were tasked to move towards the south east hill where we held the position with 2nd squad. 4th was engaging targets towards the northwest across the airfield while ghosts held the south of the position.
upon more and more incoming fire was being received by 2nd squad, we were tasked to investigate and reinforce due to loss of communication over the radio. After moving into 2nd squad's position, we have seen that half of the squad was down. 4th squad helped to repel the enemy advance towards the location and placed all of 2nd squad to the Stryker while 4th squad went back to the airfield on foot for extract.
Overall Sentiment
POSITIVE
