Situation
Following the capture of Iceland, Soviet
Naval Aviation has now established a presence at Keflavik including the 14th
Fighter Regt (MiG-23M Flogger B) and the143rd Bomber Regt (Su-24 Fencer B) with
associated tanker support. No AEW Aircraft have been identified so far.
Initial recon overflights have assessed that the airfield will be fully
operational within two days.
The Oriskany CVBG with Carrier Air Wing 19
embarked has been allocated to pre-emptively take down the airfield using "Alpha
Strikes".
Oriskany is an old ship having started her career in WW2,
Korea and more recently Vietnam but still has one good fight left in her, "The
Mighty O" is now in position with the rest of her strike group along with assets
from Sondrestrom and Thule Air Base.
