  • Mission Driving Thunder


    Start: 11/06/22 20:00
    End: 11/06/22 22:30

    Situation

    Prior to Alpha Company's destruction of the Russian logistical operation south of Dubionki, remnants of the Russian 2nd Motorized Rifle Battalion and Tank Battalion (27th SGMRB) with attached Spetsnaz team moved into positions east-northeast of Beketov. Intelligence indicates that enemy forces are preparing to seize the city with the help of civilian willing supporters. Given that Russian stocks of replacement fuel and ammunition have been eliminated, the enemy has little choice but to move into the city and fortify. Enemy aerial resupply and airborne drops are a potentiality.

    S-2 has confirmed a T-80 tank platoon and mechanized/motorized infantry equipped with BTR-82s and BMP-3s in the AO . Armed civilians have also been observed building roadblocks in the city.

    Mission

    Alpha Company is ordered to conduct a combined arms assault on the city of Beketov. In coordination with elements of the Canadian 2nd Mechanized Brigade Group, which is moving to establish blocking positions northwest and west of the city, counter-attack Russian and militia forces in OBJ Steel Shadow. Occupy and secure the city.

    NOTE: Company-level authorization is required for CAS inside the objective area (OBJ Steel Shadow) due to risk of collateral damage.
