OPERATION CARBON KING v3
Mission design by: Goldshe & Dutch Baron
SITUATION:
On December 29, 1030D, multiple USA Reaper drones orbiting over no-man’s land between Zugdidi and Sukhumi discovered a sizeable Russian forward recon unit (codenamed Romeo) across the river approximately 5 kilometers North of Dzhvari and another, considerably larger and more powerful unit (codenamed Juliet) between Ochamchira and Gali.
The US, threatened by this presence, immediately responded by deploying a unit of armor and infantry seven kilometers South of Dzhvari, and launching drone strikes upon Romeo.
The Russians reacted by mobilizing, moving further up North, and taking a defensive position in and around a small town ten kilometers north of Dzhvari, deploying anti-air defenses. This resulted in a stalemate.
Two hours later, 1200D, the Reaper drones orbiting the area monitored extensive Russian movements. Romeo dispatched some of it’s armor, infantry and AAA down South, resulting in fortification of the bridge connecting both Russian units. Juliet advanced further East and took position between Gali and Dzhvari.
Romeo does not exhibit any signs of retreat, Juliet is rather setting up an attempt of reuniting with Romeo and taking Dzhvari and therefore gaining significant power and presence across the river, this resulting in an opportunity of taking and fortifying Gudauta and Sukhumi airports, as well the land before the river.
The BLUFOR have a full F-15 Squadron in Batumi, full A-10 squadron in Kobuleti and a Ukranian presence with multiple Su-27, MiG-29, Su-25, Ka-50 in Kutaisi. The BLUFOR also control Senaki-Kolkhi airport with no aircraft present, if need be to land, refuel and repair.
The OPFOR have a sizeable fighter presence in Sochi-Adler and Nalchik. CV Admiral Kuznetsov has taken position 60 kilometers off the coast of Sukhumi, allowing Russians to deploy naval missions.
Romeo: Russian forward recon unit consisting of infantry, multiple BTR-80s, T-80s, ZU-23s, Shilkas and a single Tunguska. Expect the Tunguska to be deeper North, in a clearing close to forest.
Note: The aerial reconnaissance drones confirmed all Shilkas being dispatched to protect the bridge.
Juliet: Large Russian unit of infantry, armor, artillery and air defense. At least one SA-15 Tor and multiple Tunguskas confirmed. Other SAMs and Shilkas sighted. Exercise caution when approaching. SA-15 Tor is located on high ground. Remember, it is a low to medium altitude SAM system.
Mission deployment time: December 29, 1335D.
BLUFOR Bullseye: city of Zugdidi.
OPFOR Bullseye: position of Romeo.
