Operation Redoubt

The Arcer Army's ongoing deployment to Kelekona as part of the Arco-Capetian Agreement of 2026 is more commonly referred to as Operation Redoubt. Arcerion maintains a peacekeeping presence of several thousand soldiers and aircrew support the civil authorities of Kelekona, conducting humanitarian assistance missions, and in some cases interdiction and degredation of anti-government forces.

The Arcer Army was initially deployed to Kelekona in 2026, and began bilateral engagements with The Capetian Armed Forces, establishing a demilitarized zone between East and West Kelekona, and then working with civil authorities to estalbish effective cooperation between Arcer forces and the local disparate groups within Kelekona.

Arcerion
During escalating tensions with increased Capetian military and intelligence service involvement in Kelekona, Arcerion demanded through the now defunct South Crona Congress that a bilateral solution on Kelekona be entreated by both sides. Arcerion was engaged by the Republic of Alstin, who brokered a deal in the nation's capital. The result was a joint effort to establish relative zones of authority and control over the situation in Kelekona, which was rapidly declining.

Arcerion deployed its first troops in the fall of 2026, with an initial commitment from the Army's 1 Rifle Brigade serving as the core of what was initially Task Force Kelekona.
