Situation
Three days ago, HMS Revenge was sunk by
a Victor II SSN. NATO has planned retribution for this act and deployed
submarines to the Barents Sea. Over the last few days the remaining Red Banner
SSBNs have retired to their "Bastion" under the protective umbrella of air,
surface and subsurface forces.
This mission is vital: it is hoped that
threatening Soviet strategic weapon systems will compel Soviet commanders to
increase their defence of the Bastion, drawing forces away from the front.
Sinking these SSBNs will also reduce the Soviets' essential offensive nuclear
strike capabilities.
It is NATO's intention to sink the remaining SSBNs
in the "Bastion".
