Overview
This challenge involves to driving to small pockets of NK forces and destroying a marked target within them. For grunt level, the first target will be a FROG 7 truck just northwest of the AN HQ, guarded by a few KPA soldiers, Sungri Scouts, and a couple RPG troops. Due to the weak protection of the FROG-7, any kind of explosive weapon will make short work of it. Having a helicopter on hand with a powerful machine gun, or rockets/missiles (such as the MD-500 Scout), will make destroying this target a breeze.

On soldier level, the amount and type of targets will change. You must now destroy three targets. The first target is in the same area, but the FROG-7 has now been replaced with a BMP APC, which is immune to small arms fire. The second target is a little further west and features a T-54 as its target, with similar KPA forces surrounding it. The third target is further west, on top of a hill. This one is another BMP APC, again with the same defenses.

On elite level, two more targets have been added. One is either a BMP APC or T-54, with the usual entourage of troops, located north of the AN HQ on the hill where the artillery from 'Ante Up' were located. The last target is further west along the road leading towards Kaesong. It is another FROG-7 with the usual assortment of troops protecting it.
