Concept of Operation

• 5th SFG (USASOC) has been tasked with the
  destruction of Irans nuclear weapons development
  capability and associated weapons sites.
• The missions are planned as target selection
  only.
• This particular set of missions follows TF Redeye
  and their primary objectives around the Arak,
  Iran AO.
• CIA has attached several agents to assist.
• The Iranian Pasdaran, Special Services Unit, is
  responsible for security throughout the sensitive
  areas.
• It is assumed that a specific Pasdaran
  Independent Special Operations Group (proper
  name) is security for the Arak facilities.
• The mission sets will simulate a rapidly
  degrading military and political situation over
  the course of the operation.
• Target Selection will change to Active
  Engagement.

• The USSOC has no knowledge beyond initial tasking
  
• The CIA is secretly complicit in the IDF
  contingency
• NOTE If the TF Redeye agents fail to laze their

• MISSION SCENARIO
• March 2003 Target Arak, Iran
• Growing concerns over Iran's nuclear capabilities
  is driving internal agencies within the United
  States to investigate other options. Rumors and
  possible sightings of foreign operators,
  surveying the weapon sites deep within Iran have
  prompted their security services to now go on
  high alert. Tensions along the Iraq/Iran border
  are now growing even stronger with these
  sightings clueing the possibility for overt
  military action.
• The missions involved in this operation will use
  historical elements to model these rumored
  incursions.
