Briefing:

Good Morning Gentlemen,

Great work on that last mission, the capture of documents along with Bogdnanov's Intel officer have been very productive! HQ was able to get a plethora of information from the officer and the documents. Our Intel people in Washington have been conducting an analysis of this information as well as all of the events that have taken place over the past couple of weeks. We have learned the following information from our friend Yuri :

1. Oleg Bogdanov has acquired a weapon of mass destruction in the form of an old SS7 warhead.

2. He and his remaining forces are planning an escape today.

The island is completely surrounded by ice which narrows his escape possibilities down to an air evacuation. Intel has determined that his forces will attempt to escape via the Spitzbergen International Airport. Your mission is to secure the airfield and the buildings to the Southeast of it. There may be civilians in the area, which means you'll have to watch the rules of engagement. It is imperative that this army be stopped here and now or the world may see an unthinkable fate. Your team has disrupted Bogdnanov's plans to this point his forces are wounded, but not dead. Do not underestimate their fortitude or will to escape.

We are counting on you gentlemen, God's speed and good luck!

Cinemas:

There is an insertion cinema giving a recon view of the area.

Once the mission objectives are completed there is no cinema. In lieu of a cinema an outro.avi has been constructed depicting the events of a successful mission.  It displays the truck carrying the nuclear warhead exploding into a fireball in the middle and the ending of the movie shows the player walking on the tarmac towards a C-130 and flying off of the island.
