Can I pinch your cheeks and call you sonny?

No. There is nothing worth any targeting data at all in Vermont.

Personally, I plan on living long enough to visit some places. You know, places that work for COOP or CoG? And... well...

Well, you have the basic seats of government, those have to go.

Any sizable military guard bases, anyplace that's a major industrial site, and of course, in the third or fourth wave strikes, you go for major roads and stuff like that.

Targeting criteria is NOT just military bases and cities with 1 Million+ populations.

You also want to be able to cripple the enemy's ability to recover, regroup, resist any possible followup invasion, or, if you're a real dick and it's a MAD scenario, you just scorched earth anything that might be of any use to any possible survivors, because. you are. a dick.

Edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burlington_Air_National_Guard_Base

quote:

In 2014 the Honorable Thomas Walsh, Environmental Judge[3] denied a motion to have an environmental review before operating the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II at the base.[4] The F-35 is four times as loud as the "less stealthy" aircraft it replaces.[5] The 158th Fighter Wing plans to overcome the noise issue by avoiding using the afterburner and instead fly the aircraft very lightly loaded,[6] and not conducting low level training flights.[7]


You'd want to hit that early. Probably in the first or second strikes, not the initial attacks (most of which are surgical in nature) Or just wait for the F-35 to take off then bomb its own base or something equally hilarious.

In Iraq, yes, but not in Syria. Remember that whole thing where the shithead in charge of Syria said "if you help us kill those dudes while they're on our soil we'll be mad"? I think we've just gone and done it anyway.

IADS, I'm assuming we're conducting strikes in some areas still under the coverage of the rings of whatever SAMs Assad still has.

Probably the same reason for most of the TLAM strikes.

e: I'm assuming some of his SA-5s are still functional, so at a minimum those will have to be taken out unless we're only striking waaaaay in the NE.

They've been arguing back and forth about when it is going to kill us for the last 20 years, one day it will and that will be the end of the argument.
