They are in contact with hostile groups of light armored units west of their position, across a river. Two flights of 2 x F/A-18C (Colt 1, Colt 2) are tasked to fly to Army outpost and provide CAS as directed by AFAC Pointer. Fly lead for Colt 1 flight, launching from USS Stennis off Georgia coast.

This mission can easily be converted to multi-player, with 2 x A-10C perhaps, to assist with CAS.
