21st Squadron Briefing Room
When the notice came through that their vehicles were ready, Yaeko stood. She pressed a button on her datapad, at which point the
map from their previous briefing appeared.
"Alright everyone. First thing's first: wingman assignments. Tin Man, you're with me. Scrapyard, you're with Ghost. Cutter, you're with Spinner. Hellcat, I want you with Murasaki. Which leaves Tamahagane with Kayo." She paused to look up from her datapad around the room.
"I will be dividing us into three teams: Assault, Support, and Demolition. The demolitions team will consist only of Scrapyard and Ghost. Assault team will consist of myself, Tin Man, Hellcat, and Murasaki. The remaining for are the support team."
Yaeko turned her attention to the map that she had displayed and began pointing with her fingers as she spoke. "Once we make our bombing run at point A will we fly roughly north until we reach the mountains. At this point we will navigate the mountains in an arc shape until we reach point B. Any and all radio chatter should relate to a practice navigation mission in case they manage to intercept our communications."
"When I inform the Heitan that we are beginning our ascent, that is our signal to land. From there, unload and suit up. Once on the ground your wingman is your battle-buddy. You do not go anywhere without your battle-buddy. You do not do anything without your battle-buddy. You keep your battle-buddy alive."
"At this point we fly NOE to the installation. Laser Communications only once we are in armor and until we reach the installation. About 2km away from the enemy installation we will split up. Assault and Demolitions will continue their way south-west to the installation and, upon reaching the installation, is to remain hidden."
"Meanwhile, Support will make their way south and station themselves in an offensive position to the south-east of the installation. Once they are in positions, they will begin firing upon any members outside of the installation. Once Assault and Demolitions hears Support begin to fire, they move in."
"At this point, radio silence is no longer required. Assault Team, our primary objective at this point is to eliminate any hostiles, our secondary objective is to capture key clan members as noted by Tamahagane-Hei at our primary briefing. If you capture anyone, immobilize them and leave them to be dealt with later."
"Demolitions Team, your primary objective is to disable the ship, your secondary objective is to keep the computers intact, Vampire Class first and Henkei second. Meanwhile, Support Team, your objective is simple, shoot and kill, secondary objective is to avoid killing key clan members."
"The final phase involves the complex itself. Demolitions, once you have finished disabling the ships, your next objective is breach the complex. If you have leftover GRPE charges, rig one of the two entrances with the explosives, if not then you are to aid assault team in clearing our hostiles."
"When the hostiles are cleared out then Demolitions Team is to blow a hole for us to enter through, whether with leftover charges or with weapons. Once our path is clear, Assault and Demolitions enter immediately and begin killing and capturing hostiles. Move room by room and clear out hostiles, leave prisoners to be retrieved by Support Team."
"Support Team, once we enter, your are to begin dealing with prisoners. Retrieve all prisoners that we have captured thus far, give them any medical attention needed to keep them alive, and then Cutter and Spinner will join Assault and Demolitions in clearing out the complex while the other two keep track of the prisoners. Once inside the complex, however, your main priority is still rounding up captives, administering necessary first aid, and then transporting them over to the other prisoners."
Yaeko turned and directed her last statement to Anne. "Because you're the flight surgeon I kept you out of direct combat on purpose. If you get injured bad, there's no one here to save you, so your job is to give support fire and keep prisoners alive. However, if you are needed to administer medical attention to a squadron member, then you are to do so."
Yaeko then turned her attention to Yoshi. "Cutter, if Anne needs to give someone medical attention your only priority becomes keeping her alive."
"Are there any questions?"
