Situation
809 Sqn Buccaneers on HMS Ark Royal have
been brought up to strength with additional aircraft from storage after the
recent losses against Northern Fleet units earlier this month.
Soviet Air
defences are estimated as heavy, with various SAM and AAA Systems, backed up
with PVO Fighters.
Strike targets are the airbase in the Kola Peninsula
which launched strikes on the United Kingdom mainland.
Projected strike
aircraft losses are over 80 percent. We do not expect everyone to come back from
this.
