*hums Strike Commander theme* A vote for Broadstreet Ford, Lincoln, and Military because can this really be Strike Commander without some F-16's shot-up with so much 9-mike that they'll rip apart on the first high-G turn?

I support buying at least four Phantoms and two drones Tangentially related question: what are our options for NATO/US-compatible anti-ship missiles? I checked wikipedia and apparently the Tomahawk TAS-M was withdrawn from service in the 90s. Are we going to have to at some point try for acquiring Backfires and SS-19 Shipwrecks?

Yooper posted:It's going to be like finding a needle in a stack of needles. You already said more specifics to come, so sorry if this was already forthcoming, but I'm going to ask a really basic question: how would we identify the ship, practically speaking? Would we need overflights? I imagine it'd be too easy by far for the AWACS's surface search radar to just be able to tell us which one it is.

chitoryu12 posted:Also, what do we have for anti-shipping work? Will Paveways take them out? Bacarruda posted:We already have 12 RB 15F anti-shipping missiles that the Gripens can carry. We bought 'em in our initial arms deal with the Swedes and Germans. That said I don't know if we'd necessarily want to use these missiles if bombs can work just as well, given that it's ostensibly an unarmed, unescorted freighter anyway.

If we're letting in goon backseaters, hows about putting all the AWACS sign-ups all join as the S 100B's five-man crew? Hell of a turn-over if we get shot down.

On the one hand, those 1000 rupee bills have been demonetized by now. On the other hand, they were replaced by 500 and 2000 rupee denominations specifically because corrupt, under-the-table deals would be done with fat stacks of thousands, so very good and carry on. (sorry, I very recently got back from a trip to India)

Condoleezza Nice! posted:Anyway. I'm not the most knowledgeable about air warfare and support, but wouldn't having multiple different planes by different producers become hell for our support staff? If that's not an issue, I would want us to get the maximum amount of F16 C I think Yooper isn't playing the full-on logistics game anymore so our main concern regarding a wide range of planes is that old Soviet poo poo is going to have to use expensive old Soviet munitions, unless we get hit by limitations on a case-by-case narrative basis.

ManifunkDestiny posted:If I was better with math and maps I would love to do a mini version of the Ploesti raid, with flights of 2-3 bombers coming in from different directions within a minute of each other. If I recall my Harpoon days correctly, the ultimate goal of a Soviet commander was to overwhelm a USN CVBG's defenses by striking it with Backfire-launch cruise missiles, Kirov-launched cruise missiles, Oscar-and-Sierra-SSGN-launched cruise missiles, and possibly also SSN-launched (wakehoming) torpedoes, all from multiple directions and multiple different points-of-origin, into a single unified Time-On-Target.

Quinntan posted:Earlier someone compared this to Operation Mikado, a suicide mission where the SAS would have destroyed Argentine aircraft on the mainland. I think that's doing a disservice to Mikado. At least that wasn't dependent on one transport My Jimmy Carter-sense is telling that yes, we should try to send more than one plane (helicopter?) to attempt the ground-team insertion.

I love that the follow-up to "trying to take over an airbase in the middle of Lhasa would be way too risky" is "perhaps should completely flatten THAT base, and THEN take over the ALTERNATE airbase!"

Yooper, I'm just going to throw this out here, and I'm gonna be sorry as all heck if it's a bad idea to even bring up, but is there any place we could throw in a dime for your IRL operating expenses for this LP? Like, paying people through Fiverr to do voice acting work is goddamned luxurious, but I wouldn't mind putting a little something down if it meant defraying your costs a little for all the entertainment it's gotten us.
