1 SITUATION
1.1 Overview
Ones up on a time there where some lost Abrams from the Iraq army. Not anymore.
ISIS in now parading them in full daylight in the only enclave they have left. Now US want them gone and want us to stretch our legs. Buckle up because this is going to be a long strike mission.
1.2 Area of operations
More or less the whole of Syria, Jordan, north part of Iraq and Turkey. The ground is a mix of mountains but mostly flat desert for most of the flights.
1.3 Time and weather
* July 11 – 2022
* 04:00 local time
* Scattered 14-17.000ft Few 27-29.000ft Broken 40.000ft
* Wind: 269 / 5kts
* FORCE QNH 2992 / 1013
1.4 Air threats
MIG-29, MiG-21 and L-39
MiG-21s and occasional MIG-29 have been reported in Syria. Expect main threat from enemy air bases, like Damascus, Tiyas and Al Qusayr. Intel estimates that the Syrian Air Force can have sporadic CAP over central parts of Syria.
1.5 Ground threats
ABRAMS, BMP, 23mm, 60mm, ZSU-23 Shilka, MANPADS, SA-6, SA-10
Thru out Syria you need to expect plenty of AAA and small SA systems like manpads. The target area around Deir Ez-Zor is heavly defended by by 23 and 60mm as Manpads. There are no reports that ISIS have and large SA-systems.
1.6 Friendly forces
N/A, we are the only blue forces in the AO.
1.7 Civilian/3rd part
Russia at and around the Larnaka area. They might have resursers in the same airspace.
2 MISSION
The US high command want us to destroy the capture ABRAMS, and as we then are in the area recapture At Tanf so we can use the base for future missions. When Israel heard we’re planning an operation they to have a request. They want us to destroy an EWR that’s been placed on a mountaintop close to the northern part of Israel. As a side show they also want us to level the Syrian FOB located nearby. We have been authorized to reduce any Syrian SA threat in the area to be able to execute our mission the safest way.
EXECUTION
3.1 Commander’s intent
CAP groups to establish security to our other groups. STRIKE groups to destroy the six captured ABRAMS and the one Iraqi F-16 currently parked outside the town of Deir Ec-Zor and at the airport, if needed takeout the runway. SEAD groups to cut a corridor in the Syrian defense for a shorter return home. AH-64 groups to recapture At Tanf as an CH-47 with Seal-team 1 and 2 are on there way. Finally, it’s the A-10s and AJS37s mission to takeout the EWR Syria have placed close to the Israeli border with its nearby FOB.
3.2 Packages
N/A
3.3 Order of events
This operation is divided into three phases which will be conducted chronologically: Establish CAP. Deploy SEAD groups. Deploy STRIKE groups.
- Establish CAP at NORTH, MID, SOUTH and or WEST. Keep STRIKE, SEAD and TANKERS safe from possible enemy air attack.
- SEAD groups to attack and neutralize SA-sites at Palmyra and Tabqa. This will give our STRIKE groups a shorter flight home and reduce the Syrian threat in the area.
- STRIKE groups to attack and destroy the six ABRAMS and the one F-16 and recapture the base at At Tanf. A-10s and AJS37 to destroy the EWR and the FOB (expect additional tasking if needed by STINGRAY).
