Introduction

The Special Operations Department of the Russian Federation and Kazakhstan Division

invites members to its fourth International Special Operations Event, Operation Hurricane, on

the 9th November 2019 from 12:00 until 14:00 UTC.

The XR Special Operations Command Centre has not received a scheduled update report

from one of its military aerodromes located in the UAR24 restricted area and have tried to

establish communications with it, but sadly there is no response. Images from ground and air

reconnaissance sorties show that 10 (ten) foreign vehicles have infiltrated the boundary of the

aerodrome and presumably taken control, they are:

a. 6 fighter aircraft with varying weapons

b. 3 helicopters with different weapons, and

c. 1 radar.

Ground reconnaissance has also reported that portable anti-tank guided missiles of

approximately 5 units and man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS) of more than 5 units

are within the vicinity of the aerodrome but their exact location is unknown.

Operation Hurricane has been developed to free the military aerodrome and re- establish

communications with the XR Special Operations Command Post.

The operation is broken down into two parts, The Peal and The Element:

1. The Peal - Destruction of ground targets by fighter (12:10-13:00 UTC).

2. The Element - Paratrooper drop of military transport aircraft to capture the

military aerodrome (12:30-14:00 UTC).

All participants will take off from and land at Aktobe Airport (UATT) This has been

selected so all participants are at the same airport.
