Operation Silent Shield

Background: With the nation under martial law following a series of catastrophic events, the Pentagon has determined that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is acting independently of government oversight and potentially endangering national security. The President, with the support of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, authorizes a top-secret operation to take control of CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, and shut down its operations.

Objective: To secure CIA headquarters, neutralize any resistance, and prevent the unauthorized continuation of operations that could further destabilize the country.

Operation Overview: Name: Operation Silent Shield Date: Classified Location: CIA Headquarters, Langley, Virginia Command: Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC)

Forces Involved:

• 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (Delta Force)

• Naval Special Warfare Development Group (DEVGRU/SEAL Team Six)

• 75th Ranger Regiment

• 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR)

• Cyber Operations Task Force

Phase 1: Intelligence Gathering

• Surveillance: Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and satellite imaging provide real-time surveillance of CIA headquarters, mapping out entry and exit points, security details, and potential electronic countermeasures.

• Cyber Operations: The Cyber Operations Task Force works to infiltrate the CIA’s internal communications, disrupting their ability to coordinate a response and gaining access to critical systems.

Phase 2: Infiltration

• Insertion: SOAR helicopters insert Delta Force and DEVGRU operatives at designated entry points around the perimeter of Langley. In parallel, a detachment of Rangers secures the outer perimeter to prevent any escape or reinforcement.

• Stealth Entry: Utilizing advanced breaching techniques, operatives neutralize external security and gain access to the building without raising alarms. Their primary objective is to secure key areas such as the command center, server rooms, and armories.

Phase 3: Neutralization

• Command Center Seizure: Delta Force leads the assault on the command center, neutralizing CIA personnel and taking control of communication systems. DEVGRU operatives simultaneously secure the server rooms to prevent any data purge or remote sabotage.

• Containment: Rangers take up defensive positions throughout the complex, ensuring no hostile forces can mount a counteroffensive. Non-lethal measures are prioritized to minimize casualties, with a focus on capturing CIA leadership for debriefing.

Phase 4: Shutdown

• System Lockdown: The Cyber Operations Task Force initiates a complete shutdown of CIA networks, severing all external communications and securing sensitive data. Any attempts to remotely access CIA systems are blocked.

• Extraction of Key Personnel: High-value targets, including senior CIA officials and operatives, are extracted for interrogation. Intelligence gathered during this process is immediately analyzed to assess any ongoing threats.

Phase 5: Stabilization

• Media Blackout: To prevent public panic or external intervention, a media blackout is enforced in the surrounding area. Official channels release a controlled statement indicating that the situation is under control.

• Martial Law Enforcement: The Pentagon deploys additional forces to maintain order in the region and ensure that no unauthorized personnel attempt to regain access to the CIA facility.

Contingencies:

• Resistance Protocol: In the event of significant resistance or an internal coup attempt, lethal force is authorized. Contingency plans include the potential use of non-lethal EMP devices to disable electronics within the building.

• Public Relations: Should news of the operation leak, the administration is prepared to frame the action as a necessary step to protect national security during a time of crisis.

Outcome: Operation Silent Shield is executed with precision, resulting in the complete shutdown of CIA operations at Langley. The Pentagon takes control of all intelligence functions, centralizing command under the military until a new civilian oversight body can be established. The successful operation marks a turning point in the government's response to the crisis, consolidating power and stabilizing the nation under martial law.
