The Surgical Strike On the night of 28 September the commandos leave for the strike in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) in Mi-17 helicopters. During the mission Vihaan’s helicopter is forced not to cross the Line of Control due to latest intelligence from spies in Pakistan that the Pakistani Army has Deployed an “AWAC” Early Warning Radar based Surface to Air Missile System to bring their Helicopter down. Vihaan improvises by going on foot through a cave (which was very risky due to darkness and the unknown presence of terrorists). His team successfully infiltrate and kill all the terrorists on the two launchpads. Similarly, other commando teams also manage to kill all of the terrorists. Vihaan killed Idris, the main perpetrator of the Uri attack in a hand-to-hand combat. The local police are alerted and the commandos who are low on ammunition and time escape. On their way back, they are heavily rained down upon by gunfire from both a nearby machine gun bunker and a Pakistani Air Force Mi-17 Helicopter which was scrambled to intercept Vihaan’s team.
