Have you considered turning over Angola to a friendly country and running it as a shadow colony?

Not realistic, but it could be fun to conquer Africa bit by bit.

You mean doing what China already has been doing with Africa for the last 30 years?

The aviators we lost in those Tornados are going to have an even worse time than the guy who had to ditch in hostile waters. I get the feeling our dictator is going to publicly execute them.

The S-300 is our biggest threat in the theater and thus, when identified we should tell both the Count's men and the Free state about it's location. Hopefully, we can get some form of a concrete plan to deal with it permanently.

If our ground assets can't ambush the diamond convoy, we should tell the Free Staters about the diamonds.

I predict that the UN peace deal will be so that our dictator gets a golden parachute and Von Hoff / Free State are going to get a seat in writing the new constitution which will probably be an interesting mixture of central european law with a lot of libertarian provisions about very lax laws over all kinds of fun stuff. If they agree on it, the place will get a very swiss-like government.

My recommendation is a decapitation strike to the capital, preferably before the chinese intervention arrives. Haul a lot of excess assets out too because I get the feeling China will try to pin us for war crimes.

I think leaving no witnesses involves having to do this poo poo at night, killing everything near it and masking the whole op with a lot of EW gear. Make sure every identifying mark is scrubbed out of the aircrafts. Keep this op under the tightest lid possible.

I predict the best payday will come from the Mitsuhashi, and even if we go full tilt towards the locals in the strait we want to avoid messing with them because they know that we did that thing.

As for the SK60s, sell them to the Angolans and try to set up a small operation to train their airforce at a reasonable price

And so, we're working for a proper cyberpunk megacorp. Hope you kids don't get overworked to death in true salaryman fashion.

As for our new employee, we'll go with the greybeard arch-wizard. Maybe we can get some leverage by him so we won't get hosed by our employer.

Why would the company be upset if the iaea got the nuke?

Well, I think she's just the one getting upset and not the company. This would be her golden ticket up the ladder but if we give it to IAEA, then all she'll get are broken promises.

As for the vote; If we recover one, it goes to Sammie. If we find extra nukes/other fissiles, the rest go to IAEA.

Guys, remember that deal we had with IAEA? The route they asked us to do, which is to deliver the package to Svalbard airfield which would necessitate us having to travel a lot of airspace that the Russians watch like hawks and have a lot of Mig-31s on stand-by.

Some misguided notion of sabotage, but honestly they aren't going to be able to get the base running after we leave until way after we are gone anyways. Besides, wiring a bunch of poo poo on it is a pretty obvious indicator for those in the area that aren't in on this scheme that poo poo's about to go down in a displeasing manner.

If you really wanted to be an rear end in a top hat to them anyways, leave out leftover food in the warmest places so they'll stink up the whole place.

Somehow, it seems really doubtful that the Russians would just let a group of mercenaries grab some long range missiles: they're probably hoping we'll grab it so they can label us a terrorist organization so they can push into the Balkans full force instead of pussyfooting around with proxy warfare.

A favor isn't the best prize, but one missile system isn't worth the hassle of defending.

Russia doesn't really have much ability to do a proper intervention to the area, most they'd do is send a sub to sink the boat if they know about that particular cargo. Beyond that, I do bet they have agents and such feeding intel from three-letter men in Moscow to the Balkan forces along with a few SF units doing super-sneaky poo poo.

Wait, French air defense system? What? Aren't we up against Russian bloc stuff?

You're in Francophone Africa, odds are someone there has cut a deal with some French company and thus EU is willing to allow arms to go into the area. Of course, there's still old Russian surplus around but those are old rusty Shilkas and Tunguskas that have spent the last 20 years in some depot in Siberia until they were sold because Moscow needs their hard currency.
