The Russian invasion of Georgia started a few hours ago.The evacuation of NATO personnel has begun. There is a heavily armed column moving along the highway from Kaldahvara, heading towards our base at Gudauta. Flights of non-essential personnel and equipment to Sukhumi-Babushara have commenced.
We have a plan to stop the invasion cold. The column will have to cross 2 bridges en route to our base. If we can take out these bridges while the column is between them, we think they'll be trapped and paralyzed near the village of Mugudzyrhva. Then the Georgian air force can swoop in and strike.
Mission Goals:
Set the Trap: Destroy road bridges to trap the column.
Spring the Trap: Destroy the column with support from Georgian Su-25Ts.
The column consists of 15 vehicles: a mixture of Command, Armoured Troop Carrier, Armour, and Anti-Air vehicles. They will not have air support due to a successful cyberattack yesterday, but will have mobile SAM support with a number of SA-9 Strela launchers hidden around the column's route. The lead vehicles are expected to cross the first bridge in approximately 15 minutes.
Execution:
1. Start up (use your radio), taxi, and takeoff.
2. Loiter in the area (WP 1) until the column crosses the first bridge.
3. Destroy the 1st road bridge (WP 2) and call in support (F10).
4. Destroy the 2nd road bridge (WP 3). The train bridges are optional.
4. Destroy the column.
5. If needed, refuel/rearm at Gudauta (WP 4).
6. To end the mission, land and exit the runway at Sukhumi-Babushara (WP 5) or Gudauta (WP 4) if it is still in NATO hands.
Good luck.
