Dear Comrade Leonid Yegorovivh, due to the urgency and special nature of the situation, it is recommended that the following content be conducted only within the framework of personal communication.

At yesterday’s meeting, members were very concerned about the situation in the Nowinsk region, especially the overseas multinational enterprise TERRA GROUPS. Taking into account the reputation of the Russian Federation Government in the world, I suggest that the armed forces of the Russian Federation should not forcibly enter the Novinsk Special Economic Zone.

As a solution, it is recommended to use PMC (Private Military Contractor), which is independent from the federal government. The Security Committee invites the government to discuss the plan. If the plan is adopted, the Ministry of Defense is also asked to formulate plans for PMC. temporary regulations and emergency programs.

The Growth of the Fighting Bear

BEAR was not founded in response to the notorious Terra Groups and USEC; After the collapse of the Soviet Union in the late 1990s, a large number of foreign-related extremist organizations and anti-government organizations (such as the Chechen Armed Forces) emerged in the Russian Federation. In order to avoid the direct use of federal troops to attack opposition forces and the pressure of international public opinion, according to a secret law, the Russian Federation Security The Bureau secretly established the Battle Encounter Assault Regimen company, referred to as BEAR, but in order to deceive others, it claimed that BEAR was just a private tactical security company. From the above two secret documents of high-level Russian Federation communications, we can know that all BEAR's actions in Tarkov were organized Authorized by the Federal State Security Service of the Russian Federation. The mission of the operation is to find all evidence that the Terra Group is engaged in illegal activities.

This can also explain why the Russian businessman Prapor and the doctor Therapist have many tasks that ask you to go to Tarkov to investigate and collect various documents. Even the hunter Jaeger also asks the game protagonist to collect various USB flash drives. (Uncle’s classic saying: Even if the USB flash drive is filled with pornographic movies, it can’t be cheaper Skier,).

BEAR in the Novinsk region

When BEAR was first established, it was just to balance the Russian government’s armed forces in the Novinsk region. In the article about Tarkov’s World View, I mentioned Going to the Novinsk Special Economic Zone allows other companies or groups to have independent armed forces. After all, the social stability of Primorsky Krai in Russia is poor, and the capabilities of the federal police are limited (corruption) (this is also true in reality, I am going When traveling in Vladivostok, the tour guide reminded many times not to go to the police directly even if you were stolen or robbed unless you wanted to be blackmailed.) According to the USEC surveillance log, BEAR had already begun investigating the illegal activities of the Terra Group before the Contract War (you thought you were BEAR). Investigate me, I am actually USEC monitoring you)

It seems that the Norvinsk region in the game even exists as an independent military region of the Russian Federation, but the logos on several KAMAZ Typhoon troop transport trucks It is obviously the style of the Russian Internal Guard. But this shark armband does not match any existing military districts. It should be original to the game

Note: The Russian Internal Guard has actually been reorganized in 2016. This is something the production team did not expect.

Come to hurt each other (Monitoring logs of BEAR and USEC)

BEAR's monitoring log: Arrival of Van Saint Special Forces

According to intelligence USEC Special Forces The supervisor, Gus Van Saint, arrived at Tarkov Airport at 11:30, and surveillance revealed that Van Saint was picked up by a TerraGroups vehicle, accompanied by a female assistant.

At 12:20, Van Saint and his female assistant came directly to the location of Terra Lab

14:15, Van Saint walked out of the building alone, got into the car that was waiting for him, and then headed to Nika hotel.

At 18:00, Janis Apsitis also came to the hotel, but left the hotel 15 minutes later.

At 20:40, Van Saint and Novak were found in the restaurant of the same hotel.

At 8:15, Terra GroupLab’s car drove to the hotel.

At 8:30, Van Saint walked out of the hotel and got in the car.

At 8:40, Van Saint’s vehicle entered a guarded area in a residential area owned by the Monolit Group.

At 19:50, Van Saint has not left yet. It is assumed that there is another secret exit from the compound.

At 21:10, Van Saint and Novak continued to appear at the Nika Hotel restaurant. Track exposure.

(From this text, it can also be speculated that the reason why USEC's PMCs will be attacked when entering the laboratory is that the LAB laboratory is directly under the jurisdiction of Terra's internal security department, and the surrounding PMCs are not allowed to contact the Lab. , because the evidence of crime is in the Lab. )

USEC monitoring log:

Our agents discovered abnormal behavior of a convoy, including two KAMAZ Typhoon armored vehicles near the reserve station. Troop carrier and a Toyota SUV. The convoy was driving at night (about 4 a.m.) without turning on the headlights and could not recognize the license plate.

04.06. Following further instructions, the end of the convoy route was determined. The area is sparsely populated, with the occasional local fisherman. An abandoned barge was found stranded at the scene. The barge was observed to show signs of recent activity, but nothing else.

05.06. Reporting the results of 24-hour monitoring:

At 9:10 a.m., a low-noise generator began operating inside the barge, and ten minutes later some work using drilling tools began inside the barge's hull and continued for half an hour. When the installation work inside the hull stopped, an antenna appeared above the cabin, extending no more than half a meter, and was then recovered.

Thereafter, the generator will run every five to six hours for fifteen to twenty minutes

At 12:25, another black license plate cannot be The identified Toyota SUV drove onto the barge, a man holding a black folder got out of the passenger seat, and the vehicle returned immediately. Another man appeared on the barge board and the two entered the barge together.

At 12:30, the antenna was raised again, and the length of the antenna was estimated to be 3 to 4 meters. Radio scanners detected the transmission of encrypted signals. After 20 minutes of transmission, the antenna retracted. Ten minutes later, a black Toyota SUV picked up the passengers.

Over the next few hours, three more radio transmissions were detected, each lasting twenty minutes. No more vehicles or people were seen moving after that.

(It goes without saying where these investigations occurred)
