Deadline Countdown

Mission Scenario

In a war-torn region, a convoy’s survival hangs in the balance as it faces repeated attacks on the ground line of communication (GLOC). 

Adversary artillery systems rely on critical targeting data, gathered from a forward operating base (FOB) that fuses intelligence from three sources:

  • Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data feeds
  • Drone video processed by advanced AI algorithms as still images
  • Text-based situation reports from localized observers. 

To ensure safe passage, the convoy must remain entirely hidden from enemy surveillance systems.

THE MISSION

Your team must penetrate the FOB’s systems and erase all evidence of the convoy from these data streams—disabling radar detection, manipulating AI drone video feeds, and rewriting ground reports—without alerting the FOB operators to the intrusion.

Failure is not an option. The survival of the convoy and the fate of coalition forces depend on the success of Spectral Cloak.
