Shapper Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 I'll use this thread for information related to this campaign. Things with the ME are coming along real good now. :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Shapper Posted December 3, 2012 Author Posted December 3, 2012 0201 SITUATION. Yesterday saw the realization that the Abkhazian and Ossetian dissident groups are far more coordinated and better equipped than first thought. During the first hours of having the coastal shipping lanes opened for traffic, three merchant vessels were attacked and sunk. Coalition air and sea forces were able to engage and destroy a number of hostile combatants including a large patrol craft, but themselves suffered a number of losses. The remainder of the day yesterday and all through the night, intel worked hard crunching data from numerous sources. A few hours ago, the location of the Abkhazian and Ossetian leadership has been confirmed. It is the Task Force Commander's intent assault this position with the objective of either capturing or killing the enemy leadership. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Shapper Posted December 21, 2012 Author Posted December 21, 2012 0202 AAR Flew ISO SF night infil aboard 2 x oil platforms. Both teams were successfully deployed aboard their respective targets, and they were able to secure them within about 10 minutes. During the infil, 2 of the gunships took AA fire from the shoreline south of Sochi harbor. Once established overhead, one of our Ka-50 pilots reported sighting a surfaced submarine near Rig #2. This was confirmed by SF team aboard visually. IMINT was gathered and is presented below. It was decided to call for additional support from USS Reuben James who immediately dispatched their SH-60 to the objective area. During this time, the transport helos egressed safely.

Shapper Posted December 21, 2012 Author Posted December 21, 2012 With the USN frigate enroute and the their helo overhead, we rejoined as a flight and proceeded south along the coast where we encountered a northbound tanker. We identified the vessel as the C/C Elnya and reported to TOC who then verified it as one of the fragged target vessels and cleared us to fire. The vessel was sunk with a single Kh-25. During egress a southbound merchant was sighted, but fuel states did not allow for ID. Shortly thereafter, the #1 Ka-50 was brought down by AA fire from the shoreline. Pilot was KIA. Remaining aircraft returned safely. The #3 aircraft received significant damage from small caliber AAA and has been flagged as unserviceable. RUSSIAN SSK #1 RUSSIAN SSK#2 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
