OP: CARBON KING v3

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.

*** ZUGDIDI CITY IS NEUTRAL AND OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE TO EACH SIDE, CAPTURE THIS CITY AT ALL COSTS ***

OPERATION RICOCHET

 

<<<<<<<<<<< OPERATION RICOCHET >>>>>>>>>>>>

A few days ago Russia launched an attack against Georgia with numerous airstrikes and ground operations north of Tblisi. In that time they have captured Zhinvali, Pasanauri, Dusheti – about 60km of Georgian terrain has been taken so far. They are mobilizing additional forces to capture Misaktsieli and eventually proceed towards the capital. Intelligence estimates that without intervention, the Russians could capture Tblisi in as little as 3 days at this pace. US led coalition has been deployed to Tblisi to respond to this emergency.

The 7th Guards Air Assault Division and 12th Guards Tank Battalion are spearheading this assault.

The 12th Guards Tank Battalion have captured Dusheti and are reinforcing their defenses. Tank Platoons have begun heading south to attack Misaktsieli and destroy the EWR stationed south of it. The assault depends on the main road leading south to Misaktsieli, which has 2 bridges that serve as chokepoints for the assault. Command has determined the best course of action at this time is to destroy these two bridges to halt the assault.

Elements of the 538th Guards Air Defense Missile Regiment have been deployed and have successfully setup an ad-hoc KUB system that poses a significant threat for any air assets stationed near Tblisi.

The 7th Guards Air Assault Division have deployed the 108th Guards Air Assault Regiment to attack Tianeti and the surrounding region. Elements of the 162nd Recon Battalion and 185th Military Aviation Squadron have been deployed to support the assault. Georgian 3rd Rifle Company stationed at Tianeti is doing it’s best to defend the area, but they are being quickly overrun by the lightning fast assault of the Russian VDV. 1st Platoon of 3rd Rifle Company is surrounded and requires immediate extraction.

The 3rd Air Defense Missile Regiment has deployed S-300 sites North of the border to deter any aerial assaults on Russian territory.

The 1st Aerospace Defense Battalion has been deployed to Nalchik and Beslan and are dispatching fighters to respond to our deployment.

The 3rd Air Defense Missile Regiment has deployed S-300 sites North of the border to deter any aerial assaults on Russian territory.

The 1st Aerospace Defense Battalion has been deployed to Nalchik and Beslan and are dispatching fighters to respond to our deployment.

The 12th Guards Tank Battalion consists of 40-80 Tanks, AAA, and Mechanized Air Defense systems.

The 108th Guards Air Assault Regiment consists of 2 VDV Infantry Companies and 1 Artillery Company.

The 162nd Recon Battalion consists of 30-45 Mechanized Armor and Mechanized Air Defense forces.

The 185th Military Aviation Squadron consists of 2-4 Mi-24 helicopters.

The 1st Aerospace Defense Battalion consists of 18-24 fighters of Mig-31, Su-27, Mig-29S, and Su-24M forces.

———————————————————————————————————

<<<<<<<<<< BLUE COALITION >>>>>>>>>>

  1. Defend Misaktseili
  2. Destruction of KUB Sam System
  3. Retake Dusheti
  4. Destroy key logistics points to halt the offensive
  5. Medevac wounded personnel at Tianeti
  6. Extract Georgian 1st Platoon, 3rd Rifle Company to safety
  7. Defend Tianeti from the VDV assault

If we lose Misaktseili, our only EWR will be destroyed.

If we do not destroy the key logistics points, more and more assault platoons will continue south to destroy Misaktseili.

Tianeti assault must be repelled, or the Medevac and Extractions will be a failure.

OPERATION CORNERED

<<<<<<<<<< OPERATION “CORNERED” >>>>>>>>>>

Poor intel, “trigger happy” political decision to launch campaign against well prepared REDFOR and too small contingent approved by Senate has resulted in major defeats for BLUEFOR across the conflict area. Ground campaign that had primary objective to gain foothold and secure KRYMSK failed as well. Due to this failure, BLUEFOR was not able to airlift more troops into conflict area.

Decision was made to extract out troops and bring them to safety. Transport ships are inbound, but spearhead of REDFOR attack is advancing fast on BLUEFOR positions and final stand-off is inevitable.

———————————————————————————————————

Unknown amount of enemy radar SAM’s North and East of Anapa.

RADIO COMMS AND ATC

 

ATC and BASIC RADIO COMMUNICATION – v1.5

 

Talking to ATC (or anyone) on a radio is by some people viewed as a complicated and difficult task, with a lot of rules and regulations to follow.

All communication is based on etiquette and common courtesy when communicating with others on a radio, to set a proper standard.
When you first start communicating with ATC (or a person on the used frequency), you start with the callsign of the individual you are trying to contact, then you state your own callsign.

After that your intentions/request is stated and any order from ATC needs to be repeated to ATC by you.

If you did not understand the message from ATC, use: SAY AGAIN followed by your callsign.

We are going to look at all procedures from the start of a mission, up to the end of a mission after we safely landed.

In this training, we are taking off from MOZDOK AFB from parking 28 and our flight is STORM 6, a 2-ship F15 flight, only the LEAD will communicate with ATC.

 

*** Before calling on any channel, MAKE SURE ANY ONGOING COMMUNICATION IS FINISHED! ***

 

CLEARANCE DELIVERY:

YOU:  Mozdok Ground, STORM 6, 2 ship SU27 on APRON 1, IFR Flight to the North

ATC:  STORM 6, Mozdok Ground, cleared IFR to EXIT NORTH, fly runway heading until above 200 then direct initial altitude 1000, Mozdok QNH 762

YOU:  STORM 6, cleared to EXIT NORTH, fly runway heading until above 200 then direct initial altitude 1000, Mozdok QHN 762

ATC:  STORM 6, readback correct, call for startup

 

In this example you are ordered to climb to 1000m (3000ft) at which you should be at CRP EXIT NORTH (Compulsory Reporting Point) and report back to ATC that you are there. This depends on the airport you are at, so check the AERODROME CHARTS for all local names and locations. In this case it is called EXIT NORTH on the charts and ATC wants you to confirm your location once there and give you new orders.

The WIND CHECK should not be repeated, unless you heard it incorrectly.

 

STARTUP PROCEDURE:

 

YOU:  Mozdok Ground, STORM 6

ATC:  STORM 6, Mozdok Ground

 

— Once a connection has been established between you and ATC, only the flight’s CALLSIGN needs to be stated,

you state your callsign at the end of your message


YOU:
  2-ship F15, REQUEST START-UP, STORM 6

ATC:  STORM 6, START-UP approved

YOU:  START-UP approved, STORM 6

— Once started up and all ready to taxi, you ask for permission to taxi

 

TAXI  PROCEDURE:

 

YOU:  STORM 6, REQUEST TAXI

ATC:  STORM 6, taxi runway 08 via ALPHA and hold short, (OPTIONAL: contact TOWER 137.000)

YOU:  Taxi runway 08 via ALPHA and hold short, STORM 6

 

Now taxi to RWY 08 via the designated ALPHA taxiway, which you find on your AERODROME CHART and hold short (stop) before reaching the RWY.

(OPTIONAL: When holding short, switch to the TOWER frequency at 137.000).

During taxi you might get orders or messages, orders could be to stop for passing traffic or obstacles, always obey ATC!

 

TAKE-OFF PROCEDURE:

 

YOU:  Mozdok Tower, STORM 6, holding short RWY 08 at ALPHA and ready for departure

ATC:  STORM 6, the WIND is 135/15 maximum 21, cleared for take-off RWY 08

YOU:  Cleared for take-off RWY 08, STORM 6

 

Explanation about the WIND CHECK 135/15 max 21  =  wind heading 135 degrees, 15 knots speed, max speed 21 knots.

 

AFTER TAKE-OFF PROCEDURE:

 

YOU:  STORM 6 is at EXIT NORTH

ATC:  STORM 6, switch to TAW RADAR on UNIFORM 1 and resume own navigation, good day

YOU:  Switching to TAW RADAR, STORM 6, good day

 

ATC will order when to change to another frequency or you do it according to the current Aerodrome Standard Operating Procedures on leaving ATC airspace.

When entering an airspace, changing frequencies is done according to the AERODROME SOP or by ATC orders.

 

When leaving the CTR (Controlled Traffic Region; so the area the local airport has control over) you are switching to a large area radar control center and you will thank the ATC operator for his/her services. Always be nice!

Now you are flying either VFR (Visual Flight Rules; you as a pilot are responsible for all navigation and safety) or IFR (Instrument Flight Rules; radar control is responsible for navigation). Of course as a pilot you are at all times responsible for visually looking out for other traffic to prevent mid-air collisions.

 

 ENTERING CTR and ARRIVAL PROCEDURE:

 

BEFORE entering a CTR, you should switch to the local frequency/TS channel (usually ARRIVAL) and state who you are and what your intentions are.

You also state your current altitude and in this case we already know that RWY 08 is active.

 

YOU:  Mozdok Arrival, STORM 6

ATC:  STORM 6, Mozdok Arrival

YOU:  Good day, 2-ship F15, currently at 3000ft, 20 miles South of ENTRY WEST, RWY 08, FULL STOP, STORM 6

ATC:  STORM 6, good day, cleared inbound RWY 08, (OPTIONAL: descent to 1500ft), report at ENTRY WEST

YOU:  Cleared inbound, (descent to 1500ft), report at ENTRY WEST, STORM 6

 

— When you are at ENTRY WEST, you will contact Mozdok Arrival again and follow orders. You do not need to establish a connection first,

because the ATC is already expecting your message —

 

YOU:  STORM 6 is at ENTRY WEST

ATC:  STORM 6, cleared for visual approach, expect OVERHEAD BREAK, contact TOWER 137.000 (frequency if applicable)

YOU:  Cleared for visual approach, contact TOWER 137.000, STORM 6

 

— You will now switch to the TOWER (TS channel or frequency).

 

LANDING PROCEDURE:

 

YOU:  Mozdok Tower, good day, STORM 6

ATC:  STORM 6, good day, the WIND is 140/12, maximum 22, cleared for landing RWY 08, report at (OVERHEAD) BREAK

YOU:  Cleared to land, report at BREAK, STORM 6

 

— After you visually (or via ILS) line-up with the runway and your distance from the airport is around 10 miles/15km, you will report you are on FINAL.

 

 YOU:  STORM 6 is at BREAK

ATC:  STORM 6, cleared for landing RWY 08

 

 — After you landed the TOWER will order you where to vacate the runway from and have you switch to GROUND CONTROL (if applicable).

 

ATC:  STORM 6, vacate DELTA on the right and contact GROUND 121.300

YOU:  Vacate DELTA on the right and contact GROUND 121.300, STORM 6

 

GROUND PROCEDURE:

 

After a successful landing you will vacate the runway via exit DELTA on the right side and contact Ground Control (TS channel or frequency).

 

YOU:  Mozdok Ground, STORM 6, good day, vacated at DELTA on the right, REQUEST PARKING

ATC:  STORM 6, Mozdok Ground, good day, taxi to RAMP 2 on ECHO via DELTA and PARK at 18

YOU:  Taxi RAMP 2 on ECHO via DELTA, PARK at 18, STORM 6

THE EAGLE’S NEST

<<<<<<<<<< THE EAGLES NEST >>>>>>>>>>

Mission design by: Dutch Baron

After local militias have taken control of all government institutions, backed by Russian FSB coordinators, NATO decided to help the poorly treated local communities and taken over the Northern region in the Caucasus area. BLUE forces have taken control of Mineralnye Vody, Mozdok, Nalchik and Beslan AFB.

The Southern side of the Caucasus area has been secured by RED forces. Senaki-Kolkhi, Kutaisi and the 3 Tblisi airbases are in control and used for strikers and fighters to attack the northern region so they can regain control over the area.

2: Keep air superiority over the southern region.

3: Escort strikers trying to take out hostile ground forces

STRIKERS/SEAD:

WP1 = BULLS EYE

First SEAD should take out the SAM site @ MN27, so the IL78 can drop the troops in that area safely.

This has to be done within 25 minutes from mission start, otherwise the IL78 will be taken out!

1: Take out the enemy troops near the river South of the village TERK at MN75, this is the main priority for strikers!

We have troops just South of that position, who need to advance to BESLAN AFB to take control. After that support our ground forces by providing CAS near BESLAN AFB.

2: SEAD/DEAD has te be done first to take out SAM threats, after that all BLUE ground forces should be taken out.

3: Runway strikes are needed at Nalchik and Beslan AFB.
