A multi-player mission for up to 12 players. Situated in the Persian Gulf map, this mission will provide a challenging mission incorporating ground attack, CAP, and SEAD. All flights must work together to suppress enemy forces to free a captured civilian ship.

Modules included:
F-15E- Anti-Ship
F/A-18C- SEAD
F-16- CAP

Situation:
Iranian forces have captured a Japanese tanker while it was transiting the Straits and are currently moving the ship towards an Iranian port. Iranian naval forces intercepted the tanker and forced it to change course into Iranian waters for "inspection".  The tanker is currently being escorted by two Iranian ships. Once the ship reaches the port the crew will likely be detained. Two UAE warships are on the way, but will not reach the ship in time. The ship is currently 15 miles SE of Larak Island. The tanker captain is reporting engine problems, likely in an attempt to allow more time for Allied forces to intervene.

Mission:
Secure the release of the Japanese tanker. Disable or destroy the two Iranian ships escorting the Japanese tanker. Once the tanker has been separated from the ships we will direct them to move towards the UAE ships. Cover the ship until it makes it to the air cover of the frigates. Expect enemy air assets to respond to any interference in Iran’s hijacking of the tanker. Enemy air defenses are also on high alert.
