Operation Horizon

The **Operation Horizon**, also referred as **Horizon**, **HZN** or **OH** is an organization in *Deathloop*.

## Overview

Not much is known about Horizon and their presence on Blackreef, aside from the buildings and documents left behind. It was a research expedition, conducted by the Army of Motherland, sent to Blackreef to investigate, research and document the Anomaly.

## History

### Before Blackreef

Sometime before 1931, Operation Horizon was initiated by the Tyvian Motherland Air Forces' head operatives, after rumors of the Anomaly on the Northern isle of Blackreef got to the rest of the Isles. Jurgen Berezin was appointed as Field Marshall and the head of the expedition.

### On Blackreef

Operation Horizon arrived on Blackreef by the early 1930s, and started constructing various bunkers and buildings, required to accommodate the extensive research equipment, such as the Pumping Station, Tidevarv Station, the Stabilizer Antenna, as well as others. It is unknown, whether the previous inhabitants (i.e. the fishing colony in Updaam) have remained on the island at that time.

The military presence on Blackreef required a thorough and attentive knowledge of the island, which the personnel of Horizon performed, charting out the elevation map of the island, using the names of various locations, provided by the previous inhabitants, as well as giving certain locations new names (i.e. Berezin's Manor).

Horizon charted out the map of the island in 1931, using the names given by the previous inhabitants, as well as adding the new ones . It is safe to assume, that various **Vostar** batteries have been implemented by the Horizon personnel, as well as the constructions of **Zarkapa** Communication Devices.
