"Locate and rescue V.I.P. codename Raptor from his downed helicopter as the U.S. Army Rangers repel Ultranationalists assault in Northeastern Virginia"
In response to an apparent United States-supported terrorist attack on Zakhaev International Airport, the Russian government has declared war on the United States, seeking revenge for the deaths of hundreds of innocent civilians Using a duplicate of the ACS module that Task Force 141 had recovered earlier in Kazakhstan, the Russian military confuses the early-warning systems of NORAD with a massive phantom aerial attack on the West Coast of the United States This allows the real Russian strike force to sneak in on the East Coast undetected Russian fighter jets sweep in, allowing many cargo planes to airdrop troops, armor and equipment for an attack on American soil The U.S. military is caught off-guard, and scrambles to repel the invaders.
Taking on the perspective of the 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, Ramirez, Dunn, Foley and Morgan start off in a humvee driving down the suburbs of Northern Virginia Suddenly, a BTR appears from behind some tall stances and fires at them Everyone gets out and the Rangers in the lead vehicle are killed.
They run behind the houses and stay parallel to the street as the BTR continues down its path, destroying the homes with its cannon It eventually runs into a barricade and spots the Rangers, who dispatch the troops that disembark and use smoke grenades to run past it They clear Russian forces in brutal close-quarters fighting and eventually reach Nate's Restaurant and are given an update by Pvt. Wells, who inform them that the HVI, "Raptor", is unconscious and inside the restaurant's meat locker for protection.
The Rangers soon spot a convoy of military trucks coming in from Taco To Go, using smoke as a cover The squad takes thermal M14 EBRs to pick off most of the enemy soldiers, just as another convoy appears from CBR Financial Some enemy soldiers manage to get through the intense fire and onto the restaurant's rooftop, but are all eliminated by the Rangers.
Just as it seems that the coast is clear, a UAV fires Predator Missiles on the restaurant Foley sends Ramirez, Dunn and a few other rangers to eliminate the UAV operator who has nestled himself in the diner across the restaurant They are able to sneak through two BTRs that had arrived during the fight and take control of the UAV, using it to destroy the BTRs and additional enemy reinforcements Enemy fast movers then bomb the restaurant, prompting Foley to move Raptor and has the Burger Town cleared of hostiles.
More enemy reinforcements arrive, but are cleared by the Rangers The attack culminates with the presence of two Mi-28 Havocs, which Ramirez shoots down with Stinger missiles With the area now clear of hostiles, a friendly convoy appears and the Rangers exfil out to Arcadia to save and evacuate civilians caught in the fighting.
