You would also need very good intel.

By quick raids, I don't mean a platoon/ODA level SOF element either, I think it would look more Operation Market Garden, pretty big muscle movement, with lot's of CAS capability on call.

Obviously risky, but even a partial success would be good, the less material they have to start with, the longer the road to Boom.
