Orders for Cmdr NATO Forces

 

Situation

Iceland over the last few weeks has been under constant attack by NATO forces. Even after these attacks the airfields are still operational, but restricted in their ability to launch or recover anything larger than an Su-24 Fencer or MiG-23 Flogger. The remains of the 61st Kirkinesskaya Red Banner Marine Brigade are dug in around Reykjavik and Reykjanesbaer near Keflavik.
