Very interesting concept. I do hope this is being made to work with a 4.09m vanilla install...

Hairog,
Sounds like a very interesting historical "what if" scenario. Looking forward to when it's available.
Thanks for your hard work.
Cheers, Scott

You advertised for input so I'll add this one last detail and then leave it alone. My premise is that Stalin finds out that the US is a paper tiger in regards to the atomic bomb. In fact we only had 6 at the end of 1946 and 11 at the end of 1947. So Stalin decides to gamble and secretly re-mobilize for the war he called inevitable.
As ruthless as Stalin was, he was not stupid. (Remember, Stalin's presumptive behavior you use is from the same man who ordered evacuation of the communist party offices in Moscow during operation Typhoon..) Nor would the US have hesitated on using the nuclear option at the time with what was at stake.. making the long and protracted engagement you propose in your campaign a non-going concern. That's always a problem where super powers grapple in the conventional sense. Now I understand it's fun to play 'what if' and these scenarios look pretty grand.. but I think there are some creative differences from my standpoint. Namely realism. There.. my bah humbug for the season... PS. by all means continue on. I'd like to see this heady and ambitious project come to fruition.
It's a Game.

Just curious, but I don't think the GO-229 would have the range at low level to deliver the weapons.
The Yorktown battle group would have to sneak into the Baltic, which could easily be controlled by the Russian navy, putting the carrier task force well within heavy bomber range and danger of Russian submarines and surface forces.
Nay, it is impossible for the GO-229 to perform that mission, however, were they to be a specially modified test bed, given a new designation, it would sound slightly more feasible.

I do like the sound of it, I was thinking of doing something like that myself. Is there anyway to mod in F-84/86 and MiG-15?
