Following a partially successful attack by the 7th Armoured Cavalry to relieve the 223rd Infantry Division surrounded in Hanoi, the Front Line south of the Red River has been heavily reinforced, preventing any further breakthroughs. These reinforcements have gutted the NVA's rear, leaving them open to an airborne assault. As a result, the 2/17th Air Cavalry has been tasked to send a Company to eliminate key targets north of Hanoi.

Briefing

NVA Forces north of Hanoi have been severely weakened, and reinforcements are days away. This has left us with a unique opportunity to relieve the 223rd, still stuck in Hanoi. There are 2 major points of interest - the North Hanoi Sugar Plant and the Ha Long Naval Base. Capturing these points will give us a strong foothold and control over the major supply routes in the region.

North Hanoi Sugar Plant

On the north bank of the Red River there is a large industrial plant formally used to refine sugar. Due to its proximity to the 223rd it is full of battle hardened NVA troops. Due to its proximity to the frontlines there are very few remaining armoured vehicles still remaining. Both major bridges across the Red River are still intact, so there are likely well fortified infantry prepared to stop any advances along them. Expect a large amount of infantry contact and artillery from experienced troops.

Ha Long Navy Base

Ha Long Naval Base is a major naval base, containing large repair facilities and plentiful stockpiles. The large repair facilities mean it is home to both ships, and a large amount of armoured vehicles evacuated north for repair. Mostly garrisoned by NVA reserves and VPN crews we do not anticipate stiff infantry resistance in the port itself, but any functional vehicles may present a challenge. Also in the region is the HNB Radar Hill. While recently bombed and likely out of action, it is garrisoned by experienced troops. If you can confirm the destruction of the RADAR dish you will leave the site useless if the NVA is able to recapture it.
