A: time on the ground.

The longer you are on the ground in "indian country" , the
greater the chance of discovery.  Spec ops teams don't carry, and can't
carry, the hardware for a protracted fight.  If discovered, they've already
lost (witness recent Seal team failure in Afganistan)

Your plans to have them drive to the target rather than direct clandestine
insertion DRAMATICALLY increase their time on the ground.
