Made to be played by Blue side only.

File Analysis.bt3 contains the complete analysis for this scenario.


Background:

After neutralizing most of NATO's power in the GIUK and Norwegian sea at
great cost to both sides, the remainder of the soviet sub fleet will
sortie from Murmansk, and allow their SSBN's to achieve a commanding and
decisive presence in the European theatre.  A powerful surface fleet
centered around a Kiev class carrier is preceding the subs to sweep away
any remaining ASW forces that NATO can bring to bear.

Scenario:

An understrength CVBG centered around the British carrier Illustrious is
steaming north from the British Isles to interdict the Soviet
surface threat and attempt to detect and neutralize the sub forces
before they take station. Can the Illustrious Sea Harriers match the
Yak Forgers? One nations V/STOL aircraft against the other!

Orders:

As Commander, Nato forces, you must take your CVBG and remaining
Royal Navy submarine assets north to tackle the soviet surface threat
and uncover their submarine forces. ASW aircraft and surface assets have
been placed at the Norwegian base of Andoya to aid in detection and
prosecution of sub contacts detected around Murmansk.  A small force of
interceptors has been ferried to Andoya to protect the base against
Soviet air attack.

Minumum Victory: Kill the Soviet carrier, cripple 4 of its escorts and
kill 2 SSBN's.

Total Victory: Kill the Soviet carrier, 4 of its escorts and 4 SSBN's.
