USC forces maintained the initiative throughout the operation, achieving territorial gains while establishing full maritime isolation of the island via blockade. USC Army forces were deployed on both the northern and southern axes of the island, enabling sustained pressure, operational flexibility, and effective containment of UKAC units. Objectives Primary objectives for Phase One were as follows: * Establish a firm USC foothold on the island * Disrupt and degrade UKAC operational capability * Support allied USVA strategic goals * Isolate the battlefield through naval blockade All primary objectives were met. Forces Committed (USC) Ground Forces * Platoon-sized elements from the 82nd Infantry Regiment * 3rd Armored Division “Iron Vanguard” * 12th Air Defense Artillery Squadron “Skyshield”, operating surface-to-air missile systems to provide layered air defense over USC-controlled sectors * Army forces deployed simultaneously on the north and south sides of the island to fix, pressure, and contain enemy units Special Operations and Support * Task Force Delta * Elements of the 75th Ranger Regiment, including 2nd Battalion, conducting specialized direct-action and high-risk mission support * 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR) * 335th Pararescue Squadron providing personnel recovery and combat support Air Forces * 14th Fighter Squadron “Black Talons” * 22nd Bomber Squadron “Nightfall” Naval Forces * USC aircraft carrier USC Valor * USC aircraft carrier USC Dominion * Supporting escort and blockade elements (classified) Friendly Forces (USC) USC forces conducted coordinated multi-domain operations throughout the five-day period. Command and control remained stable, and operational tempo was sustained without major disruption. USC Casualties (Confirmed Estimates) * KIA: approximately 190 * Wounded: approximately 650 * MIA: approximately 35 * POW: approximately 5 Total USC casualties: approximately 880 Enemy Naval Forces UKAC naval assets assigned to guard and defend the island were engaged and neutralized during the opening phase of operations. Coordinated USC naval and air actions resulted in the destruction or mission-kill of the majority of UKAC surface combatants operating in the surrounding waters. Surviving enemy vessels withdrew or were rendered incapable of effective maritime operations. The elimination of UKAC naval forces removed organized resistance at sea and enabled uninterrupted enforcement of the maritime blockade. Enemy Forces (UKAC) UKAC forces resisted initial advances but were progressively degraded due to sustained pressure, loss of territory, destruction of naval protection, and isolation caused by the blockade. Multiple enemy elements were rendered combat-ineffective due to encirclement and disruption. UKAC Casualties (Estimated) * KIA: approximately 450 * Wounded: approximately 1,420 * MIA: approximately 310 * POW: approximately 560 Total UKAC casualties: approximately 2,740 Blockade Effects The maritime blockade significantly limited UKAC’s ability to resupply, reinforce, or evacuate personnel. With enemy naval forces destroyed, the blockade was enforced without meaningful opposition. While not a direct source of immediate casualties, the blockade materially contributed to increased enemy surrender rates, higher MIA figures, and declining cohesion. Terrain and Control USC-controlled territory now provides favorable positioning for follow-on operations. Control of key zones on both the northern and southern sectors of the island denies UKAC freedom of maneuver and complicates any attempt at counteraction. Command Assessment Phase One operations are assessed as a clear success for the United States of Cain. All objectives were achieved with lower relative casualties and sustained operational momentum. UKAC forces remain present but are increasingly constrained and defensive in posture. Outlook USC forces are well-positioned for Phase Two operations pending authorization. Continued pressure combined with sustained blockade and absence of enemy naval capability is assessed to further degrade UKAC operational capability. Morale across USC forces remains high.
