Obstacles & Fields of Fire. North Sudan’s open deserts and rocky hills give wide fields of fire but few safe routes for vehicles. Hills and ridges favor defenders with strong overwatch positions, while wadis and rocks offer limited protection for infantry.
Avenues of Approach. Movement follows the main highway and a few dirt tracks. Off-road travel is slow and exposed, making road junctions and high passes key for control and maneuver.
Key Terrain. High ridgelines and hilltops overlook major roads and valleys, giving excellent observation and control of movement. Towns along the main highway serve as key strongpoints, while the airfields and nearby plateaus are critical for enemy movements
Cover and Concealment. Sparse vegetation and open ground give little concealment, but wadis, rocks, and compound walls provide solid cover. Reverse slopes and terrain folds allow limited hidden movement.
Weather. Hot and Dry
Time and Light Conditions. Commanders Intent
Enemy Forces.
Size. Enemy elements are dense in numbers, with any civilian capable of being an enemy combatant
Capabilities. Enemy weaponry includes old Soviet bloc weaponry, from AKMs and PKMs to sparse M16s and M249s. RPGs and mounted emplacements are common sights. Enemy armor is heavily limited to makeshift technicals and poorly maintained Soviet light armor.
Recent Activity. The enemy has been largely growing in number and actively fighting the UN presence in the region.
Expected Course of Action. Enemies are likely to defend their positions and inflict maximum damage on Allied Forces before retreating to other positions.

Mission.
The 10th Ranger Regiment has moved to the North Sudan region to conduct operations against rebel militia forces that have taken over the region. For the purpose of Ranger Operations, a UN air force base disguised as a humanitarian aid station has been allocated for Ranger use.
In the region, three key targets have been identified as targets for the future viability of Ranger operations in the area. POI001/2/3 have been designated targets for the 10th Ranger Regiment.
POI001 is an old Soviet Cold War airbase that has been abandoned since the fall of the Soviet Union. Operational intel and ISR have spotted Militia forces occupying the area and storing supplies, ammo, and equipment. Additionally, it is believed that an underground facility under the airbase was conducting research on weaponized viruses and chemical weapons. Local activity and multiple ISR reports of explosives being hauled underground suggest militia forces may be attempting to blow open the labs and retrieve the weaponized specimen.
POI002 is a villa south of POI001, where a HUMINT resource has marked a potential high-level HVI for militia forces. The area is heavily fortified and well-protected.
POI003 is the town of Rastman, which has been occupied by militia forces. Strongholds and checkpoints have been placed throughout the area.
Sustainment
Ammunition & Reinsertion will be provided by 160th SOAR assets or via ground ferry. No reinsertions will be brought in via teleportation, except for technical issues.
This operation is projected to have engagement distances less than 500 meters.
