If you’re on the HVT team, you’re riding in Vannish stealthawks. Basically modified helicopters like those from the Bin Laden raid. There’s room for other nations to bring any stealth helicopters they’d like too. The reason these are here is because Vangaziland has had forces on the island since I wrote the background info in 2017 or 2018. So all of these aircraft would have been staged on a Vannish FOB to the east.
I edited the team layout mentioned so far. Others have mentioned joining in but haven’t specified where yet.
Since the Cobras are mentioned as being modular and almost like attachments, they’ll split. I’m probably going to add the two new people I rendered in 3D, so we’ll have two Vannish two person teams and our Intel guy who might roll with the bank crew.
It should be noted the helos are coming in at an angle meant to avoid flying over the SAM truck. Their radar wasn’t able to pick up the stealth transports. They’ll egress away from it too. Expect the SEAD strike to occur soon after the helicopters pull away... once surprise is lost. Then we can move in more support aircraft.
One more note is that the observation post and heavy weapons teams are already in place. They were likely dropped off by vehicles several miles away, mentioned as the ones which skirted the blockade, and marched in under darkness. The bank heist team will likely be choppered in after the SEAD strike, potentially staying airborne to act as QRF in the meantime.
As far as the HVT job, expect me to jump in with OPFOR and from an Atlas perspective. They’ll likely want to move down the staircase to the 4th floor with the HVTs. An element will likely want to secure the rear by posting up to watch any squirters moving from the 5th floor. The guards on the first floor will also come into play.
