During the world new order as ex-soviet countries were due to the dissolving of the USSR, some were still pretty much aligned with their roots from the last century and others were trying to approach their western neighbors, this generated a lot of conflicts, from countries that would support the old USSR and others that would disagree. That would even be the case for countries that would have rebels wanting to separate from it’s government and creating one of their own. This would bring chaos and civil wars that heated up all around Eastern Europe nations, some more affiliated to now the new Russian Federation.

It’s still hard to understand on what’s going on but we had word that some foreign government forces are inside russian territory near the Black Sea working on chemical weapons, using the very own Black Sea as a mean of transportation via some cargo ships since crossing through Georgia wouldn’t be possible due to tensions against Russia which would have their cargo inspected. The only be mthrough Dagestan and Azerbaijan until Iran, which would face logistic issues due to cost and distance, plus timing which was extremely precious during those skirmishes.

For what we know, Russia is providing asylum to some of the government members and it’s scientists under civilian transportation, claiming that they are being victims from the bloody conflicts, but it has been discovered that under that act, some members of the government were afraid to lose their influence and to inflict fear, they’ve allowed these scientists and military members to work with their help on their very own chemical weapons, to then transport via shipping through out the western part of Europe before Poland and also providing support to Iran itself. Since you are already aware of the situation, let’s get ready for your main objectives. This will be possibly one of the hardest operations we’ve ever had so far, so listen up.

We will have 2 main tasks going on and we’ll all operate from the same base. They’re both risky so we’ll need coordination and precision. The first will be done by the F-16 squadron that with the escort of F-15s will fly low through the Caucasus Valley to intercept and bombard the main enemy facility that’s providing the main chemical compounds to build the weapons and warheads. The mountains are filled with an extremely deadly anti-air system, so unless you need to fly below their radar and range. Fly too low and you’ll hit the mountains, but fly too high and get hit by a missile. The second task will be performed by the F/A-18 squadron and the other remaining F-15 squadrons to intercept the main scientists and important government and military members that are providing the funds to these projects. They will cross Georgia airspace straight towards Turkey. Some will be under civilian aircraft names such as Yak-40s, An-26s and others will be military aircraft such as the Il-76. They will be escorted for sure, but you only have authorization to shoot them down under Georgia’s territory.

So remember, one group will be heading straight to the transporters while the others will inflict maximum damage to the enemy infrastructure. Remember, quick reaction time is extremely important during this mission. Failure is not an option and won’t be tolerated.
