Background (5)

Learn about the failed drug bust in Cayman Brac, the hostage situation at the private airport, and the mission to rescue captives and eliminate drug smugglers in Rainbow Six Mobile.

Alright, so you're about to jump into a mission in Rainbow Six Mobile that kicks off with a bit of a mess in the Cayman Islands. Picture this: a joint operation between American DEA and British Customs goes sideways during a drug bust at a private airport on Cayman Brac. Things go south fast, leaving some agents down and others taken hostage by the smugglers.

These bad guys have holed up in the airport complex and are threatening to execute their captives. Your job, as part of the Rainbow team, is to get in there, rescue those hostages, and take down the criminals. It's not exactly a vacation, more like a high-stakes rescue op where the local police have managed to block off the runways to prevent any aerial escapes.

Cayman Brac itself is known for being a pretty wealthy and private place, and this particular airport is small, mostly used by private jets. Unfortunately, it's also a hotbed for drug smuggling, mainly marijuana and cocaine. While the local police have had their share of busts here, a hostage situation is a first. It seems the smugglers got wind of the planned bust beforehand, coming in with more firepower than expected and catching the DEA and Customs agents completely off guard.
