Out Lines of Conduct of Raid at Mehran base
Believably the group who attacked the PNS Mehran to hit and destroy the naval assets P-3C Orion along with other aircraft if any should consist of minimum 16 raiders as follow:-
Command
2 as raid commanders equipped with SMGs and wireless
Assault group
To consist of minimum 8 persons to hit and destroy aircrafts. 2 each for two P-3C Orion 2 for other air craft like helicopters and two for breaching of hangers or going after any other equipment pertaining to P-3C Orion or any other impromptu target. Each group to be equipped with Rocket propelled Grenade RPG-7. SMG and plastic explosive devices.
Cover group
This group must consist of minimum of 6 persons to move in pairs to go and take up position to cordon off the target area (hanger) and make sure that any force coming toward the hanger is stopped and that assault group completes its task freely.
Conduct
Believably the Assault group successfully completed their task unhindered at the target but for the explosion, when security elements at the base were alerted; they rushed toward the hanger and were to encounter the cover group. By that time the assault group should have escaped from the same route they came where they fixed the ladder to climb the wall.
All the reported clashes of naval forces are with this die hard cover group who has been fighting till last. After killing some ten of all the approaching navy forces; 4 of the cover group were killed where as two also escaped.
Above is the brief of encounter that I presume that the way this raid is conducted; No doubt raiding group was highly trained and motivated who were able to carry out their given task so successfully. They were well versed with the target area and recognition of the assets to be destroyed. The disgruntled ex-navy staff who might have been court marshalled from this base and have joined these group in the vengeance or our CIA friends in disguise located at base must be acting in assistance of this raid.
How much painful it may be for us but… I must say that these stooges conducted a remarkable task and for sure they are highly trained. Well the doctrine involved is certainly not Pakistani.
