Operation Irving

&nbsp Operation Irving is a multiplayer map in Battlefield: Vietnam. It is loosely based on the real life Operation Irving which is also known as the Battle of Bong Son.

In Game
The map starts with the US controlling a base to the south and the VC controlling the other four. The VC and US bases are seperated by a large river.

Control Point 1
Control Point 1 is located overlooking CP4 on a hill north west of it. There are two M46 field guns which can fire down on CP4 or across to CP3 and a scooter. It starts off with VC control.

Control Point 2
Control Point 2 is located on the eastern hill. At CP2 there is a BM-21, another Scooter, two M46 field guns and the Viet Cong mobile spawn which is a tunnel. The 2 M46 Field Guns can fire down the hill to CP3 and all the way to CP4. It starts off with VC control.

Control Point 3
Control Point 3 is located in the middle of the bridge but you can spawn at each end of the bridge. There are no vehicles to be found but this point is key to take CP2 from an enemy. It starts off with VC control.

Control Point 4
Control Point 4 is located in the fishing village. It starts off in VC hands and there is yet another Scooter, a ZSU and a BM-21. This is normally where US forces first attack.

Control Point 5
Control Point 5 is the main US spawn point and resembles a small airbase with a hanger and helicopter landing pads. There is an M113, an F-4 Phantom, two UH-1Cs and a UH-1D. The helicopters and F-4 are generally quickly used sometimes leaving the M113 as the only vehicle but it can still be used because it is amphibious.
