Welcome to the 59th issue of More Than Games, I am Joey. This issue is about the two operators of Rainbow Six Siege - Operation Dark Sky.
In this dark sky operation, two operators came from the special service forces of two countries.
One is from the Special Crime Operations Firearms Command-SCO19 of the Metropolitan Police in the United Kingdom. Another operator is from the U.S. Army's Delta Force. Then Ubisoft created its own professional group in Rainbow Squad, the Urban Tactical Response Force. Codename Dark Sky. Designed specifically for action in urban missions. And some of the previous operators who are good at urban operations were borrowed. Including the electric shield and Marco from Operation Dark Sky, as well as the female ghost Bandy Alabai's dragon scale version and Firefly. From here we can already see the Rainbow Team's transition from early comprehensive missions to today's professional breakdown. There are now GSUTR, which is responsible for urban tasks, CBRN, which is responsible for biological, chemical, nuclear and other tasks, and the HRT hostage rescue team led by FUZE.
So let’s first talk about SCO19, which is composed of elite London police officers. The British police are different from the American police . They follow a people-friendly approach and are not overbearing like the American police sometimes. Except for some sensitive areas, important places and tasks such as Northern Ireland, most police officers on daily patrol are not equipped with guns. It is a relatively rare country in the West that does not equip ordinary police officers with guns. However, as violent crime increases, police officers continue to be shot dead by criminals. As a result, the Braybrook Street massacre occurred in London in 1966. When three police officers were questioning a car, they were all killed by the gangsters in the car. After that, the rate of British police officers began to increase. But just like the problems encountered by American police, British police often shoot innocent people. The number of police guns has also been tightened again, and the legal control is stricter and there are many rules. As a result, most British police officers are unwilling to equip live ammunition firearms. Only carry non-lethal weapons such as stun guns. So what should we do if we encounter a high-threat criminal? That is, after the Braybrook Street massacre in 1966, the United Kingdom established a firearms department to deal with such incidents. In 1986, it was incorporated into the Special Operations Department and renamed SO19. Later, SO19 was reorganized and moved to the Central Police Department and changed to CO19 Professional Firearms Command. Finally, in 2012, it merged with the Specialized Criminal Operations Directorate (SCD) to form today's SCO19. It seems quite complicated. In fact, it is the London Special Police.
When ordinary police encounter some vicious gun-toting criminals, it is impossible to ask someone SAS to help you rescue some hostages, beat up a few armed criminals and other small things every time. People are very busy with many things, heh. The Rifou base is going to be renovated recently. I have been demolishing the walls day and night with sledgehammers for three days. Therefore, it is very convenient that SCO19, which is part of the police department's own armed force, can be used. After all, SCO19 operates in London, and they are also a police force that specializes in urban tasks such as London. Nicknames include SO19 and CO19 blue berets, but most of them wear blue-black baseball caps and tactical helmets.
To select members of SCO19, one must first obtain the qualifications of an authorized firearms police officer (AFO). Then after serving for two years, he will undergo 18 weeks of training and assessment to become a professional firearms police officer SFO. At this time, you are eligible to join SCO19, or you can pass more training and assessments to become a professional anti-terrorism gun police officer CT-SFO and then join the professional anti-terrorism team in SCO19. There are currently 7 CT-SFO teams in SCO19. They have performed outstandingly in responding to various terrorist attacks in London and protecting major events such as the Olympic Games. For example, in 2017, we responded to the car accident and terrorist attack on Westminster Bridge in London. In this incident, an ordinary policeman without a gun was killed with a knife by an attacker. After driving his car, injuring more than 50 people and killing 5 people, he was shot dead by SCO19.
After the United Kingdom followed the United States and fell into the and chaos in the Middle East, the United Kingdom became a high-risk target for terrorist attacks. SCO19 became a solid shield to protect London's security.
There is an interesting thing here. The British police have a professional armed response vehicle (ARV). Several police officers drive armed response vehicles to patrol around London. They can arrive at the scene as quickly as possible after receiving a task. If something goes wrong, call for support.Speaking of which, do you think that the Hong Kong police stormtroopers and the Flying Tigers system that were once under British rule are somewhat similar.
However, ARV belongs to SCO19, and the Stormtrooper EU and the Flying Tigers SDU are two units.
At the same time, the iconic element of both Hong Kong and British police is the Batten pattern.
is also used occasionally in mainland China. The Batembo plaid pattern is derived from the pattern of the Batembo cake. It has eye-catching and highly recognizable features. Different colors are used to distinguish different special service vehicles. At this time, some viewers said, oh, the characteristic of the British police uniform is this Battenburg pattern. No, no, actually, this is the Sillitoe plaid on the British police uniform, which came out 60 years before the Battenberg plaid.
Sillitoe plaid is an element widely used by police departments around the world, and is used by police in Australia, the United States, and the United Kingdom. The difference between the two is that Battenburg plaid is very large and usually has reflective material, while Silito plaid is small and dense, and the shape is relatively square.
This time the British operator is CLASH, which means conflict, collision. Very fitting of who she was and is. As a black woman, she suffered from racial discrimination and often led community members to fight against the discriminators until she lost her friends in the conflicts. Later, he chose to resolve the matter through official channels, and after being recruited by the police, he joined the police force. Transform from rioters to rioters. Combined with her early riot experience, she can better deal with the mob. With outstanding achievements, she quickly became an expert in suppressing conflict activities in the police force. Finally, he was recruited by the Rainbow Team.
Her skill is holding a CCE ballistic shock shield. Now everyone in the Rainbow Team is very good. When a new member joins, her equipment is made by several technical geeks in the team. It only has some transparent bulletproof material, which is made by MIRA, and some remote electric shock, which is TWITCH. Mullard also gave a prototype of his full-body retractable shield. Therefore, the three of them worked together to develop this electric shock shield for her.
Do you want to ask if there is such a real electric shock shield? Yes, this thing is not difficult to make. You just need to put a coil on the shield and discharge it. However, real electric shock shields can only shock people in close contact, and are mainly used to prevent rioters from close contact. Rather than installing a Taser like in the game, it can be fired from several meters away. The
electric shield is very useful. It can effectively block the attacker's route at some key intersections and disrupt their offensive rhythm. The electric shield has excellent protection in the game. First of all, it is bulletproof, and it can also effectively resist broadswords and grenades. However, since this shield is made of polycarbonate, which is lighter than a large shield, it can be attacked at close range by enemies. ZOFIA's concussive thunder can cause flaws in the shield's tilt, and the enemy can kill it. So keep a distance from the enemy, retreat and attack at the same time. Don't think that you can do whatever you want with a full-body shield, or even run outside to roam.
You have to understand one thing when playing CLASH. The attacker is not afraid of you, but your teammates. Because you can't hit with a shield, you can't shoot with a shield at half your body, and you can't even do a jump while holding a shield. The electric shock has 3 HP per second. It can't even electrocute a car. It can at most slow down the enemy, but rarely can it electrocute people directly. So don't leave your teammates behind and rush forward. Any riot police officer who is left alone will be besieged by the mob. Use the advantage of your shield to help your teammates report points, and at the same time, depending on the situation, cooperate with your teammates to slow down the enemy with electric shocks, and letting your teammates assist in the kill is the right approach.
Please don't put down your shield unless you have the right time. Here is a little trick for you: stand with a shield in some windows and wait for the attacker to hit your shield. After a few hits, the opponent will relax their vigilance when they realize that they can't do anything to you. Then you can catch him by surprise the next time he appears.
Here we talk about the second one from the operator’s unit, the U.S. Army’s Delta Force. Speaking of Delta, many viewers first learned about this unit from the game Delta Force. From 1998 to 2009, this game even became the first time many players came into contact with the FPS classic. And we often see it in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3.
Delta Force, like SEAL Team 6, is part of the first echelon. It means one of the strongest special forces.
"Delta Force" was first translated from "Delta force" in the memoir "Delta Rise" by Charles . Beckwitz, the father of Delta. In fact, it was because the Army Special Forces already had ODA (class) , ODB (platoon), ODC (company), so going down is exactly "Delta", so it is translated as delta.
So the name "Delta" is not the rumor that the founder suffered losses in the Delta area of Vietnam and remembered the name because of his sorrow. It just happened to be the radio letter reading method for D.
The early years of creating Delta were not smooth sailing. At that time, the Navy already had SEALs, and the Army was competing between Delta and another "Blue Light" force and the Rangers elite company. The budget was not large at the time, but Delta's excellent performance, combined with political operation, finally defeated the other two teams and became the lucky one to develop.
However, the US Department of Defense does not recognize the term "Delta focus". Delta is known to the outside world as the 1st SFOD-D (1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta) of the U.S. Army Special Forces . People familiar with them internally call them the Combat Applications Group (CAG) for short. However, They themselves like to call themselves "the unit".
(In the military code name, D is replaced by Delta, and Delta (Δ) means delta, so it is called Delta Force)
When Delta was established in the early years, it was also learned from SAS. At that time, there were only three teams in ABC. Now there are rumors that it has expanded to the EF team, with nearly a thousand people. (However, three-quarters are logistics support personnel) Members are mainly selected from Green Berets and Rangers as the first echelon. No complete details of Delta's selection have been leaked yet. We only know that the selection is quite strict and often no one can pass within a year.
Delta's early participation in operations such as Operation Eagle Claw and the Achille Lauren incident usually resulted in failure. They participated in many famous operations, including Black Hawk Down in Somalia, and the failure factors were not entirely attributed to them. There are many reasons such as logistics and command politics. But it left everyone with a stereotype that Delta had a mediocre record and poor abilities, and even said that they were the eternal bridesmaids.
In fact, in the more than thirty years since its establishment in 1978, Delta has participated in various tasks, large and small. It has a very outstanding record, including successfully resolving the Bangkok hijacking incident in 1981, rescuing political prisoners in Panama in 1989, and serving as the core force in the , and Iraq wars. Seals killed bin Laden, but Delta did Saddam. In other words, Delta has become stronger and stronger, with extremely excellent results. The US military's special operations ideas have begun to mature. Since the outbreak of the war on terrorism, Delta has been tempered by wars in the Middle East and other places. Whether it is the ability to perform tasks around the world, With rich combat experience, they are already worthy of the top position of the first echelon.
Affected by the failure of missions due to logistics and other factors in the early years, Delta today has an extremely strong logistics support department. Including medical units around the world, intelligence services, and their own aviation squadrons with dozens of helicopters.
Today, like their LOGO, Delta has become a sharp blade in combating extremist forces and special military operations.
What’s interesting is that as I said before, SAS, as the originator of special forces, brought out many well-known special forces such as Delta. After the Delta developed and expanded, it also brought along South Korea’s 707 Special Forces and Poland’s GROM.
This time the operator from Delta is called MAVERICK.
MAVERICK means maverick, similar to his usual personality and behavior. Why his icon is a horse comes from the story of an American, Samuel Maverick. This Texas cowboy had money and land, and a person who had lent him money came to repay his 400 cows to pay off the debt. Once he accepted, he dumped the cattle on his farm and left them to fend for themselves. As a result, the herd of cattle gave birth to more and more babies, and even ran to other farms.At that time, newly born animals had to be marked to identify whose family they belonged to, so everyone asked him to be marked.
Maverick is lazy and doesn’t want to do anything, so he just tells everyone that since you are all branded, the ones that are not branded are mine.
In this way, Maverick became the meaning of describing a maverick person. The horse icon comes from the story of the Texas cowboy, and cowboys and horses are inseparable elements. The NBA's Dallas Mavericks was also called the Dallas Mavericks before, and the horse on the logo also came from this. The background of
in the game shows that Marco, who has a very high IQ, learned Dali after joining the army. Engaged in intelligence work in Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan. His resume shows that he first joined the U.S. Army, then joined the Green Berets, and was then chosen by Delta to be active in the underground intelligence network in Afghanistan.
While investigating the case of a missing journalist, Marco lost contact with Delta for two years. What has he been doing these past two years? If you get caught, in this business it's all about licking blood from the edge of a knife, and you always make mistakes.
According to the information in the game, we can infer that he may have spent nearly two years collecting materials to make a small flaming device while he was imprisoned. He cut open the cell while no one was prepared and escaped with important information before leaving.
Marco’s attire looks strange because the US military special forces and some agents will disguise and dress up their attire in order to blend into the local environment. The hat he wears is the Pakol, the most common woolen flat hat in Afghanistan.
The tattoo on his arm can be seen in the CG animation, I found a Pashto translator. The meaning is that the tattoo on his arm is a map of Afghanistan, marking the locations of the capital Kabul, the second largest city Kandahar, and Nangarhar and Raskar Gah.
Marco's skill is to carry his own DIY flaming device "SURI". The word "SURI" means red in Persian.
can be used to destroy the enemy's bulletproof shields, bulletproof cameras, barbed wire, evil eyes, wooden boards and other props. The biggest feature is that it can burn through reinforced walls and form a shooting hole to shoot at the defender. And the sound is so small that it is difficult to detect even burning a hole behind the defender. Or you can spend more fuel to directly open an accessible hole. His appearance sharpened the offensive approach, and the reinforced wall that gave the defender a great sense of security has now become a fatal element. However, the disadvantage of "SURI" is that it is not very durable and disappears after a few sprays. Why is "SURI" not durable at all? It was because after Brother Ma was arrested, he used some scattered materials to make a simple "SURI" to escape and ascend to heaven. Later, Thermite was eager to help him improve "SURI". Everything else has been changed, except the gas cylinder. Marco felt that "SURI" helped him regain his freedom. Although it was not durable, it was of great significance, so the cylinder is still used today.
"SURI" is a physical attack method that can ignore BANDIT's electrified wall and MUTE's electronic jammer. At the same time, opening the roof panel and ceiling can be done silently, making it difficult for defenders to detect overhead threats. "SURI" can't burn Black Mirror though. But here is a little trick for you. The animation of Black Mirror installed on the wall is fixed on the wall with 4 rivets. In other words, Marco only needs to boil the four fixed rivets, and the black mirror will disintegrate directly. Another method is to squat directly under the black mirror and burn the gas bottle diagonally upwards. This can destroy the gas bottle of the black mirror and make the window fall down. But it’s easy to get beaten to death by people behind Black Mirror.
Let’s talk about Marco’s AR-15.50. This gun is quite special. It makes full use of the modularity of the AR rifle.
replaced the rifle with a large-caliber Oberwulf without significantly changing the structure of the gun. 50 caliber bullets. Its characteristic is that the 5.56-caliber warhead is replaced by an Oberwulf .50 warhead, and the bottom of the cartridge case is the same as the 5.56 bullet. And this bullet is also compatible with ordinary AR magazines. In other words, a normal AR15 rifle is transformed into a rifle that fires large-caliber bullets by taking advantage of the freedom of modularity, mainly to deal with some vehicles and bunker targets. Of course the recoil is also amazing.
