Overview
"You will have to clear 4 sectors in order to successfully complete Operation: Desert Fox. This time, however, you will have a choice. Capture the terrorist known as "Z" alive, and extract the Intel you require to make safe passage through the remaining sectors, or kill him, and figure out your own way to survive. Either way, you'll have to scour buildings and vehicles for information, take out anti-air artillery, and catch a helicopter out of the area, all while defending against the most skilled and deadly terrorists in the world."
