Operation Afghanistan is a solitaire game of Combat during the Soviet-Afghan War. The player assumes the role of a commander of combined forces in Afghanistan. As commander, you are responsible for securing your Area of Operations (AOR) by successfully conducting various military operations in order to locate and destroy the enemy.
