Army Pass, southeast of Auroa Survival Shelter
Operation Black Talon
Push QRF from Army Pass, recover both captured NIGHT OWL elements from Auroa Survival Shelter and Red Weasel Outpost, and exploit any Sentinel intelligence before returning unless new targets of opportunity appear.
Situation
Our reconnaissance coverage depends on Outcast ground teams because manpower is stretched thin and aerial ISR alone cannot cover the rugged terrain. NIGHT OWL was captured while investigating Auroa Survival Shelter.
CYCLOPS tracked Sentinel movement and confirmed one element remains at the shelter while the second was transferred to Red Weasel Outpost for interrogation. Both are alive as of the latest ISR.
Execution
Move from Army Pass to the first detention site, recover the Alpha element, search for actionable intelligence, then assault Red Weasel Outpost and recover Bravo.
- ID ProcedureUse challenge "New Moon" and expect "Watchful eye" before opening cells.
- Primary TaskRescue both Outcast elements and conduct site exploitation.
- Follow-OnIf routes and tempo allow, extend into nearby TOOs and RTB.
Warning
Hostages are split between two separate Sentinel-held compounds. Expect pressure at the first site and a harder interrogation posture at Red Weasel Outpost.
TOO Options
Drone Station W111, Natural Hazards Control, Bunker Edgehod South, Camp Weasel, Auroa Weather Station, and nearby checkpoints remain candidate follow-on targets.
ISR Source
ARMAROS imagery from CYCLOPS confirms site layouts and detention points for Alpha and Bravo rescue phases.
Objective Alpha
Auroa Survival Shelter
Recover the first NIGHT OWL element and search the shelter for actionable Sentinel intelligence.
Objective Bravo
Red Weasel Outpost
Recover the second NIGHT OWL element, exploit the interrogation site, and prepare RTB.
