Operation Exodus

Operation Exodus is one of the eight cooperative missions featured in Battlefield 3. It takes place in the same area as Operation Swordbreaker.

Synopsis
The two players begin as either a rifleman or support gunner; the former is armed with an M16A3 with an ACOG and M320, and the latter with an M249 and Holographic Sight. Both have Javelins as secondary weapons.

The two players, and a convoy of six HMMWVs, are ordered to hold a defensive line, using an overpass to get a good view of the road from whence the PLR insurgents would be attacking. Nearby, on ground level, is an arms and ammunition stash. During the first wave of insurgents, several dozen PLR infantry advance up the street towards the convoy. After two more waves of infantry, a BMD begins to advance, firing at the convoy, and most likely destroying one of the vehicles. The players, using their Javelins or their anti-tank mines, destroy the BMD, only for the PLR to renew their attack by attempting to flank from an alleyway to the west of the defensive line. As the players kill the PLR infantry and RPG teams, another BMD appears. Again, the players destroy the BMD and kill any remaining infantry, when another wave begins to advance down the main street, this time supported by a technical.

Subsequently, a new offensive begins on the east portion of the defensive line, with yet more PLR infantry and RPG teams attempting to break through the perimeter. The players defend agains the PLR onslaught, until two BMDs make an appearance almost simultaneously.
