Nordkapp - Soviets

The Soviets in this campaign have a tough time. The NATO naval forces have the job of bringing these merchant ships into a Norwegian port safely. They have the assets to protect the convoy against any single attack, they can only be defeated if the Soviets can roll back the defenders layered defenses.

To do this the Soviet Navy has only limited resources. For operation they can commit Naval Aviation assets including:

Strike Assets

• Tu-22M Backfire B
• Tu-16 Badger A/C/G
• Tu-22 Blinder A

Reconnaissance and EW

• Tu-95 Bear

They will also use their submarine assets operating in the North Sea and in and around Nordkapp. These include:

• November Class SSN
• Victor I/II/III SSN
• Charlie I/II SSGN

There is also a wild card force that I will be holding back for now.

All in all the Soviets have the forces needed to make life difficult for both the Royal Navy and the US Navy.
