USS Enterprise to rescue
Admiral war is not going well in the N.Atlantic, Norway was neutralized in a bold surprise attack in the opening days of the third world war and yesterday airfields in Iceland were taken out by concentrated bomber strikes. Forces in the United Kingdom are tied to defending their island and no help should be expected.
War in the pacific on the other hand has been quiet and as such CVN-65 Enterprise and the battle group was re-tasked to the North Atlantic.
Having arrived late to prevent the collapse of Norway and Iceland it is now your task to plug the leaking GIUK cap. NATO recon flights have detected a large Northern Fleet SAG proceeding towards Faroe Islands with intention to cut off UK and by extension central Europe from the US reinforcement convoys, needles to say this can not be allowed or the war in Europe could be lost altogether.
Mission: Conduct aggressive ASW, CAP and ASUW operations while in transit towards Iceland to protect the rebuilding of airfield facilities. Stop the Soviet SAG from proceeding any further west towards the Atlantic. Situation: It is certain that Soviet reconnaissance satellites have detected our presence in the theatre, expect Soviet submarines and tactical bomber squadrons to be tasked to assist the Soviet SAG and vectoring towards our last location. Intel brief: Expect heavy submarine presence in advance of the incoming Soviet SAG, also expect two or more regiments worth of Backfire tactical bombers. SAG itself is believed to be centered around Cruiser Kirov and the new carrier TAVKR Riga. Win conditions: Sail towards the area marked on your map to reach Iceland in time to prevent any further attacks against the airfields there. Destroy the cruiser Kirov and the Carrier Riga. CVN-65 USS Enterprise and CGN-9 Long Beach must survive, other ships are deemed expendable.
NOTE: You should probably use a full capability mod for the Enterprise and you should NOT use any mods like NTU that unbalance the game, it will throw off the mission difficulty.
