Our onboard sensors have visually located a possible location for the jamming\, which was later confirmed by our A-10 pilots who managed to pinpoint the signal to the same area. At the same time\, we have collected information from active air defenses in the area. The time to strike is now! \n1.2 Area of operations\nBeqaa Valley\, Lebanon\, and surrounding countries. \n1.3 Time and weather\n* September 10 – 2001\n* 15:00 local time\n* BKN 8/18/30\n* Wind from 250 / 7\n* FORCE QNH 2992 / 1013\n* Temp 26°C \n1.4 Air threats\nTwo Il-76 “Candid” and two Mi-8 “Hip” located at Rayak airfield.\nRrecords do not suggest any fighter or strike aircraft having landed at Rayak in recent time. \n1.5 Ground threats\nSA-10 “Grumble” located south of Rayak airfield. \nSeveral mobile SAM systems are active in the area:\nOne SA-22 “Greyhound” was located northwest of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-15 “Gauntlet” located 8NM east of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-15 “Gauntlet” located 9NM north of Rayak airfield.\nOne SA-8 “Gecko” located 14NM southwest of Rayak airfield. \nExpect these systems to have regrouped by the time of our next attack. However\, the assessment is that their tasks remain the same. One SA-22 as point-defence at Rayak airfield\, one SA-15 point-defence at EWR\, one SA-15 north of airfield to deny any attack from the north towards Rayak area and SA-8s\, ZSU-23s as close protection to enemy troops in the area. Expect all infantry to carry MANPADS\, mainly SA-18s. \nMultiple ground units have been located along the roads towards Rayak. Company sized force defending SQUIRREL\, Platoon to Company sized force defending WOMBAT. The platoon sized force defending ELEPHANT was reduced in nubres by our attack helicotpers during this mornings operation. The assessment is that only a small outpost (36S YC 7497 3402\, 4654ft) remains. This will be our way in to Rayak. \n1.6 Friendly forces\nMainly air power: One Carrier Strike Group in the eastern part of the Mediterranean. Israeli forces at Ramat David. Russian forces at Bassel Al-Assad. Other nationalities joining in as we speak. Limited ground forces from Israel and Lebanon. \n1.7 Civilian/3rd part\nCivilian air traffic is firmly grounded. There has been no evacuation of civilians from the Beqaa Valley area. \n2 MISSION\nDestroy the uplink site. \n3 EXECUTION\n3.1 Endstate\nThe mission is completed when the uplink site is destroyed and the enemy no longer has the ability to continue their attacks. \n3.2 Concept of Operations\nInitially one flight attacks EWR\nThen one package suppress enemy air defences\nFinally two flights attacks uplink site \nSimultaneously one package supports the advance of our own ground forces in the south AO. \n3.3 Rules of engagement\nROE: C\nAs per SPINS \n3.4 Acceptable level of risk\nALR: EXTREME\nAs per SPINS \n3.5 Tasking\nPackage Alpha\nSEAD with ADM-141\, H-hour – 3 until H-hour + 1\nSEAD with AGM-88 on H-hour\nBe prepared to SUPPORT package BRAVO with SEAD (30min after orders)\nBe prepared to INTERCEPT hostile aircrafts\nBe prepared to DESTROY uplink site \nRAGE9\nCLEAR ELEPHANT\nBe prepared to GUARD Charlie6\nBe prepared to DESTROY uplink site (30min after orders) \nORCA6\nCLEAR SQUIRREL \nPIG7\nDESTROY uplink site on H-hour \nINDY9\nDESTROY uplink site on H-hour \nFENRIS6\nDESTROY EWR\, ToT 101545 local\nREFUEL/REARM at Damascus Intl.
