Full Mission Profile – SWAT

OPERATION: EXECUTIVE RESCUE

Situation:

Approximately 30 minutes ago, 911 dispatchers received numerous calls that gunshots were heard in a high-rise bank building downtown. The first units on the scene discovered through witnesses outside that a small group of masked men had entered the building, killing 2 security guards and then spreading out throughout the building. Moments later, another 911 call was received from an individual who identified himself as the leader of the group. He stated that they were anarchists and primitivists that would begin the revolution of deindustrialization by attacking the heart of the the financial world.

When the group seized the building, they disabled the elevators with explosive charges and spread out throughout the building, targeting numerous executive offices where they rounded up the upper level managers, taking them to the top level master executive suite. It is unclear exactly how many hostages they have, but the number is expected to be about 20.

The leader of the group has not made any demands, but stated to the 911 dispatcher that “in exactly one hour, the world will wake up to the revolution.” That was 15 minutes ago.

Based on numerous eye witness accounts, the members of the group were wearing vests which appeared to be loaded with explosive charges. In addition to the ultimatum issued by the leader, it is assumed that they are planning to detonate, killing the executives and maybe themselves as well.


Objective:

Send in SWAT Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) to Master Executive Suite to conduct high intensity rapid rescue by Close Quarters Battle (CQB) assault. SWAT HRT will use element of surprise and violence of action to eliminate all threats, taking every precaution to protect hostages.

Approach:

SWAT HRT will enter building from the ground floor and rapidly ascend the stairwells to the executive suite on the 30th floor.

Assault:

SWAT HRT will breech the door with a ram and enter with an M84 “Flash Bang” grenade. Team will conduct rapid CQB assault of entire suite until area is cleared. Team will make every effort to limit loss of innocent life by executing perfect accuracy.

Time Line:

Time constraints dictate that the approach to the executive suite on the 30th floor must be done very rapidly. Based on the threat that was made on the call to 911, it is assumed that in order to ensure success, the HRT should be in position to begin the assault in no more than 15 minutes from building entry.

The assault success depends on speed and accuracy. The entire assault should take no more than 7 minutes.

If you are working as a team, everyone stays together.
