SOCOM II: U.S. Navy SEALs - Plot

Plot

The game first begins when the SEAL team members Specter, Jester, Wardog, and Vandal are alerted by an informant codenamed MALLARD of a blackmarket group called the Sesseri Syndicate, led by a man name Cassrioti Sesseri, who are trafficking and selling weapons and plutonium from their bases in Albania and sending them to cities from London to Cairo. The SEALs is sent in to investigate, locate and destroy the Syndicate's weapon caches and if possible, capture a mid-level member for interrogation. In the second and third missions the Bravo element in the team is replaced by two, highly trained SAS operatives named Sabre and Reaver. The SEALs and their SAS counterparts are charged with bringing down the Syndicate, first by shutting down an abandoned factory in Schkoder, then capturing or killing the leaders at their stronghold (an abandoned castle in the Albanian mountains). The team is able to neutralize the Syndicate's leadership and the organization falls apart.

In Brazil a group calling themselves the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Brazil (RAFB) have threatened to seize control of the government there. In the opening cutscene, a rebel deserter who has stolen cocaine escapes through the Amazon jungle until the female leader of the RAFB murders him with a machete. The leader name is Quixada Christo, the daughter of a prostitute and a wealthy industrialist who have a strong resentment of men. In the first mission outside the slums of Rio de Janeiro, the four-man SEAL team is sent to recover information from an informant. When the SEALs arrive at the target building, the informant is not there, but is being tortured by RAFB members on the opposite building. The team recovered him and he disclosed information about a meeting between the cell leader and Christo. They eventually capture the cell leader who reveal the whereabouts of the RAFB training camp. The SEALs traveled deep into the Amazonian rainforest and destroyed an underground cocaine factory, which was being used by the RAFB to fund their operations. With their funds cut, Christo and the RAFB made a last desperate attempt to destabilize the government by seizing the Grand Panama Dam. The RAFB threatened that if their demands are not met, they will blow up the dam, which will cripple Brazil's economy. The SEAL team is sent in to retake the dam, defuse any explosive devices on site and kill Cristo. The SEALs are successful and the RAFB is no longer a threat.

In Algeria, a rebel group called the Algerian Patriotic Front (APF), under General Heydar Mahmood, is instigating a coup to take control of the Algerian government. APF soldiers are overrunning the city of Bejaia, where CHA (Coalition for Humanitarian Aid) workers and peacekeepers (similar to United Nations peacekeepers) were staying on a Humanitarian mission. The SEAL team is sent to recover the CHA personnel and protect them from APF troops that are in control of the city. They later have to secure an area around the U.S. Embassy, where two State Department workers were left behind in the confusion of the evacuation of the city. They recover them and while fighting off continuous attacks from APF soldiers. After a long, intense firefight, the HH-60 Pave Hawk arrives and evacuates the group.

In Russia, a group calling itself Force Majeure, also known as the Global Liberation Front, is planning on making and using nuclear weapons to attack the United States. Intel from operatives in Eastern Europe suggests that Force Majeure's movements in the abandoned Kellski naval shipyard in Kamchatka, is a potential terrorist threat. The SEALs are sent in to investigate, supported by two Spetsnaz operatives, Polaris and Bludshot. The team discover evidences that Force Majeure is creating a nuclear bomb. With their findings, the team gets extracted by the USS Michigan. With Force Majeure nowhere to be found, things look grim, but fortunately the Russian Federal Security Service was able to detect the presence of the terrorist group. Force Majeure had staged a radiation spill at the Northern Star uranium processing plant that forced hundreds of Northern Star employees to evacuate the plant. Disguised as members of the decontamination crew, Force Majeure operatives infiltrated the plant with additional terrorists arriving later. Their plan was to steal vast amount of enriched uranium to be use in their "dirty bomb". The SEALs and their comrades are sent into the plant to escort a radioactive specialist, codename Flatfoot, to see how much uranium had been stolen. The findings were not good, as almost all of the uranium storages had been empty. In the final mission of the game the SEALs infiltrates a ship, the Bitter Moon, with a large payload of radioactive material, bound for Seattle, Washington. The terrorists are planning detonate the ship in or near the Port of Seattle. Aboard the ship, the SEALs discovered that MALLARD, the informant from the first mission, is actually an operative working for Force Majeure. He had used SOCOM to eliminate the Sesseri Syndicate, thus tying up a loose end, as Force Majeure had bought plutonium from the Syndicate before. The SEALs moves in and defuses all bombs place on the ship. The female leader of Force Majeure, Valeska Lukanov, is either killed or captured. Mallard, whose real name is Arjan Manjani, is killed. The team releases a smoke grenade as a signal to the USS Michigan to stand down, and the mission is complete.
