Orders Cdr NBG to defend area UTTI AIRFIELD:
1.situation
[INDENT]a)enemy:
The intel guys have come to following conclusion minutes after the sh**storm at the airfield:
The enemy NE of Rapojärvi was the HW15 enemy force rearguard. It's dead now. The HW15
enemy is out of steam (well, fuel and ammunition supplies mainly), it can hold its own, but is no longer capable of continuing the attack to Mikkeli.
The enemy force between HW15 and river was part of the HW6 Bde's flank guard (part of it had moved on further east along with the attack,
with only some units left behind to counter the NBG threat). The unit was an ad-hoc force of an ATGM platoon and an engineer platoon.
Both units are now KO, but the eng platoon did manage to blow the bridges.
The enemy at Ranta-Utti was a CSS company (part of Bde asset). Destruction of this unit means the HW6 Bde CSS assets are down to minimum.
The Enemy at airfield was part of the CSS coy and an SPA Bn with some reinforcements to help in self defence (SPAA and ATGM vehicles).
The NBG attack hit the area during some last repairs for T-80s and SPA Bn rearming. The units tried to escape the mayhem but were cut down.
This reduces the HW6 Bde artillery assets to 1/2 of the original strenght.
The enemy at the Utti Jaeger Regiment barracks area was a rear command post of the HW6 Bde. Being mostly KO now (some escaped) it is no longer "online".
The enemy T-80 coy (+) that counterattacked the airfield, (at quite a good moment too!) was the local reserve QRF. It also got killed during the fighting.
Before we start our Attack to UTTI AIRFIELD our UAV scout a T-80 plt and a BMP-2 plt 1000 NORTH of CEMETARY. Maybe this was the QRF, maybe not.
We also had some trouble with HIND Attack helicopters during our attack.
The enemy is mainly forces of the 1st echelon brigade that took Kouvola, so it's not in full strenght and we estimate strenght of max 2 battalions with support.
The HW6 Bde east of us is mostly commited in combat with defending units, but they may be able to reinforce the attack on the airfield with some units, strenght less than Bn.
The enemy counter attack is imminent, to open the MSR Highway 6 and to destroy NBG.
We destroyed during the last two battles 37 tanks (MBT, SPA, AA etc.), 51 IFV`s, 2 HIND`s and 17 trucks.
