Ryan gave the order. SW-2 got the job to hold the position outside. They had now the rocket launchers. Also one of SW-6 took one into the base. Anderson had the usual alien rifle, while the rest of his team took the AXP. Ryan and Caine use the HKs with high speed ammo. The other two of the team stuck with the microwave rifle. They headed out to recover the cut of parts. Newman was controlling a container to move there. It was no big deal to do this. Then they started the search for the other jammer. Through the surface drones they had already a triangulation. On the way to it they disabled all the cameras by shooting them with the alien rifle. This was the job of Anderson and Fujita which had one. The rest of SW-3 use HKs. Finally, they found the jammer and destroyed it with the alien rifle. It was not heavy armored or shielded.

"SW-3 and SW-6 go back to the bikes. SW-3 will now plant the charges while SW-6 is covering from the other side with one rocket launcher. Hold the needed distance and position the bikes for fast retreat. I will now blast the hole on the left side of the lift for SW-3," Ryan ordered. "SW-5 move on. SW-4 support us."

They went to the position and Anderson shot the holes for the charges, then Caine placed them. This time they wanted a bigger hole. After they went back Caine triggered them remotely.

As SW-3 arrived, Ryan remembered them to disable the cameras first. Then they went down with the bikes. It took not much time to get rid of the cameras. But Newman and Samuel did another scan to be more sure. So SW-6 had enough time to get in place with the heavy weapons, while SW-3 was waiting for the scans to finish. Finally, the scans where done.

Yamada and his team parked the bikes close enough to jump on them fast if needed. Placing the charges worked without problem. They were now activated and waiting for the encrypted signal. Drones were in position to relay the signal if needed. SW-3 went back up and informed SW-6 to also leave.

Everyone formed up at the cave entrance to discuss the next steps.
