Operation Yellow Knife is the eleventh mission in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six. Its multiplayer counterpart is Estate. It was also introduced to Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear in the Urban Operations expansion.
Mission Objective[]
Anne Lang, the U. S. Presidential Science Advisor, has been implicated as RAINBOW's security leak. Your mission is to infiltrate her estate in Alexandria, Virginia and gather intelligence about her connection with the Phoenix Group terrorists.
Briefing[]
John Clark: I never trusted that woman. And Horizon is involved too - maybe even John Brightling himself. Until we know exactly who's on our side, I'm assuming personal control of this entire operation. Our cover story will be that Catherine died on board the Orca's Smile - that should buy us some time.
Catherine Winston: The bug doesn't just resemble Ebola Brahma - it IS Ebola Brahma. It's a modified version of MY cattle virus they're using. I figured it out the night I was kidnapped - the genetic sequences are virtually identical. I called Anne right away and told her that Phoenix must have a source inside Horizon. She told me not to contact anyone else, that she'd report to John and send a car for me. Thirty minutes later the brute squad was kicking down my door.
Mission Orders[]
Information provided by Dr. Winston has linked Anne Lang, the Presidential Science Advisor, to the Phoenix Group. By bugging Lang's home phone RAINBOW may gain valuable information about Phoenix's plans.
Lang lives in a walled estate outside Alexandria, Virginia. Armed guards patrol the grounds. The team must enter and leave the compound completely undetected for useful intelligence to be gathered.
You will be inserted over the wall at the back of Lang's property, and extracted from the same location.
USE OF DEADLY FORCE IS NOT SANCTIONED ON THIS MISSION.
RAINBOW Intelligence[]
RAINBOW has uncovered evidence linking Anne Lang with a plan to release the Brahma pathogen into the general population. John Brightling, CEO of the Horizon Corporation, has also been implicated in the same plot. Background checks have revealed that Land and Brightling attended Cornell University at the same time during the late 1960's and were members of the same student organizations. It seems likely that they have been conspiring together as far back as the 1970's. Horizon Corporation is an ideal front for clandestine biological warfare experiments, and Lang has maneuvered herself into a position in the U.S. government that has allowed her to funnel research funds into Horizon and shield them from unwanted scrutiny.
The American arm of the Phoenix Group now appears to have been operating under the direction of John Brightling. Even Horizon's charity work with the inner-city homeless seems to have been front for kidnapping ring to acquire experimental subjects for testing the Brahma pathogen.

VILLA BITTENCOURT, BRAZIL (United News International) - U.S. Presidential Science Advisor Anne Lang arrived in Brazil today to inspect American installations in the Amazon rainforest. During the course of her four-day tour Ms. Lang will visit research stations run by Echelon Pharmaceuticals, the Arrow Oil Corporation, and the Horizon Corporation. The three companies are all participants in the Rainforest 2000 initiative, an American project to encourage private investment in the Amazon basin. Despite recent rumors of bandit activity in the area, the head of security for Ms. Lang's entourage assured reporters that there was no cause for alarms.
