Throttle

"Throttle" is a mission that appears in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.

Plot
In Iraq, the Sentinels prepare a massive force for a strike on the Atlas HQ. Kingpin gives Cormack instructions for Irons' capture, with Gideon and Mitchell present to affirm. As the group flies towards the city in fighter jets, they are hassled by dozens of Atlas drones as well as AA platforms. After a brief fight through a canyon, the Sentinels crash land in the heart of city. Mitchell destroys three MBTs and two ASTs, allowing the group to advance further into the main building. As Knox guides Mitchell towards a pair of Stingers, the two prepare to destroy the obstructing Titans until several drones deploy and distribute Manticore in the area, killing Knox and distracting the Sentinels.

Gideon, Mitchell, and Ilona are incapacitated by Atlas troops and sent to a prison camp as Irons taunts them through video feed.
