That is a bonkers world setup.

We have China doing a cross-Atlantic island hopping campaign while engaged in a global war. We're in a wacky timeline.

Rabbit Alpha. Rabbit because giving them a chance to get dug in will force our pilots to do a lot more SEAD work and also allow the invasion force to dig in. Alpha because sinking ships means that there's no chance of OpFor recovering the materiel on board as compared to potentially leaving some combat effective if we hit them on the highway. Also, maybe our strikers would only have to worry about MANPADS from the boats instead of dedicated air defense platforms traveling with the columns. Also, I would second the person above who asked for definitions of the three letter acronyms (at least the first time they're used).

Who's got the lead in kills so far? It looks like Prawned had 3 kills in that last sortie, including a hot dang gun kill! (it still counts as a gun kill if the enemy succumbs to the damage a few minutes later, right?) Any aces yet? Also, how's the overall air war looking, it seems like the strike craft are taking it on the chin while the air superiority craft are doing pretty well.

Losing 30% of the F-16 A/B MLU seems pretty rough. And supply situations getting into the yellow at Rio Turbio and Puerto Natales could be a hindrance if fresh cargo flights can't get there. But taking out a decent sized tanker is gonna limit PLA and PLAN attacks, probably. I can't imagine they have a ton of fuel readily available. Still, that's what, one of two active Brazilian subs and the more modern one to boot being lost?

These doofs gotta charge their phones! And, uh, use an actually secure channel.

This is a neat curveball, I like it.

PLA supply lines must be stretched to the limit already, would it make sense to focus on interdicting the sea lanes so that the invasion force withers on the vine? If so, given the very sparse population and industry of the region, would a defense in depth strategy where we "reluctantly" "lose" territory and they expend hard to replace munitions and fuel driving up Patagonia while we make sure we sink every drat transport boat possible leaving them only air-resupply be viable? Also, taking out the Liaoning is probably too big a task for the South American coalition alone, but managing to cripple her would make this whole affair not worth it for China. But is there a way to coordinate with some of the ~50 Los Angeles class attack boats or their equivalents on an op to sink her? What's the best guess at their combat effective strength and materiel reserves currently landed? Because if all they want is airfields and a base of operations in the western hemisphere, they've currently got it and pushing them out would mean contested water crossings into Tierra Del Fuego. It'd be tough without a bunch more artillery, airframes, and soldiers.

Man, I'd forgotten about that earthquake. That's a gigantic mess to deal with when a war is on, although at least it's ~1000 miles from the active fighting. Also, the flight sim mission to get James Bond out of TdF seems really neat and a very fun thing for a flight sim player to do. I'm really enjoying this from the sidelines!
