BACKGROUND: In October of 1996, a massive coup was staged within the Russian armed forces. This new radical military faction, calling themselves the New Soviet Republic, has demanded a reunification of the region under the leadership of their General Puchevsky. While the exact origins of the NSR are unknown, their promises of a return to the former glory of the USSR have convinced many to support their cause in spite of the violence they have used to achieve their goals thus far. Russia has made a formal request for aid, and several NATO countries have answered by sending direct military assistance and personnel. NATO has established a strong presence in the embattled Sochi-Adler region, pushing back major advances at nearby Krasnaya Polyana, as well as the airfield itself. Following the successful delivery of critical supplies, including ammunition for Sochi's air defense systems, coalition forces are finally ready to go on the offensive. BRIEFING: With our recent victory in Krasnaya Polyana, and the successful resupply of coalition forces in Sochi, we have been coordinating with defenders in Polyana, who have been preparing to push back into Esto Sadok and recapture the area from the NSR. It is believed that a high-ranking NSR official has been coordinating the attacks on Polyana, and is still in the area. Our intention is to force the commander to flee, and track him back to an NSR facility deeper in the canyons. We believe this camp has been the origin of the bulk of the armor used in the Polyana attacks. In the days since our arrival, the NSR has continued a troubling buildup in the region. Coalition forces have been unable to ascertain the exact location of this facility up to this point, due to the presence of a forward combat outpost approximately one mile north of Esto Sadok, cutting off their advance deeper into the canyons. This outpost is also a primary target in today's operation. Once we have pushed the NSR out of Esto Sadok, and learned the location of their mountain stronghold, coalition forces will execute a coordinated strike on the compound, destroying all combat-worthy vehicles and facilities. Heavy resistance is expected. Once we have begun the attack on Esto Sadok, it is very likely the NSR will send reinforcements. It is imperative that we destroy the NSR communication equipment in Esto Sadok quickly, to prevent the Commander from alerting the main encampment of the impending attack. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: Destroy NSR comms at Esto Sadok Push NSR forces out of Esto Sadok and secure the region Destroy the NSR forward outpost in the canyon North of Esto Sadok Locate and destroy the main NSR base camp in the canyons North of Esto Sadok THREAT: NSR CAP presence remains significant in the Maykop region. Long-range SAM sites remain online at Gudauta, Sukhumi, and the NSR-controlled territory to the East. At Esto Sadok, the NSR has established several fixed and mobile AAA emplacements in and around the town, including a Sborka EWR and several Shilkas. A SAM launch at a passing cargo plane was reported, but the source has not yet been identified. The NSR's forward outpost in the canyons is reported to have light AAA and armor guarding it. The main NSR encampment is a complete unknown, but expect a significant armor presence. The presence of additional anti-aircraft systems is likely. Mission by [355th] Viper aka feefifofum.
