Harpoon Flash News (II)

Interesantes comentarios de Andy Doty sobre el futuro Stars and Stripes (Estrellas y Barras) en Admiralty Trilogy
------------
Interesting comments about the future Andy Doty Stars and Stripes (Stars and Stripes) in Admiralty Trilogy:


Stars and Stripes (WILL!) cover the US and USSR between Jan 1st 1960 and Dec31st 1979. All the ships, aircraft, sensors, weapons will be in there. It willhave scenarios covering;Bay of Pigs.Desert Storm 1961.Cuban Missile Crisis.(US vs USSR) Middle East 1967.Okean 1970.Vietnam scenarios. (S Vietnam vs the PLN).India vs the US 1971.(US vs USSR) Middle East 1973. This will be the focus of the scenario book. Ihave already spent about a thousand dollars on deck logs from the museum backeast! Kind of like when I wrote WE, I spent more money on books than I got inroyalties!Okean 1975.US vs Iran 1979.I am hoping for a box, with either two or three books. One for stats, one forscenarios, one for ships/aircraft forms. I will have all the forms done for anyscenario, so that might be on a CD.
No es algo que nos sorprenda a esta altura, pero ya solo comentar los escenarios se nos hace la boca agua
------------
It is not something we surprised at this point, but then only comment on the scenarios we make your mouth water:

Bay of Pigs (Bahia de Cochinos)
El escenario de bahia de cochinos cubre la Invasión de la bahia del mismo nombre, fue una operación militar en la que tropas de cubanos exiliados, entrenados, financiados y dirigidos por la CIA, intentaron invadir Cuba en abril de 1961, con el propósito de tomar una cabeza de playa, formar un gobierno provisional y buscar el apoyo de la OEA y el reconocimiento de la comunidad internacional. La acción acabó en fracaso en menos de 72 horas, fue completamente aplastada por las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias (FAR) de Cuba. Más de un centenar de invasores murieron, y los cubanos capturaron a otros 1.200, junto con importante material bélico.
----------------------
The scenario covers the Bay of Pigs Invasion of the bay of the same name, was a military operation in which troops of Cuban exiles, trained, financed and directed by the CIA, tried to invade Cuba in April 1961 with the purpose of taking a beachhead, to form a provisional government and seek support from the OEA and the international community recognition. The action ended in failure in less than 72 hours, was completely crushed by the Revolutionary Armed Forces (FAR) of Cuba. More than a hundred invaders were killed, and another 1,200 captured by Cubans, along with significant military equipment.



Desert Storm 1961 (Operacion Mirador / Operation Vantage)
La operación Mirador fue una operación militar británico en 1961 para apoyar el nuevo estado independiente de Kuwait en contra de las pretensiones territoriales de su vecino, Irak. Gran Bretaña reaccionó a una solicitud de protección por el emir de Kuwait, en cuestion de dias, fuerzas maritimas, terrestres y aereas britanicas estaban desplegadas en la zona. Irak no atacó a las fuerzas británicas y fueron reemplazados por la Liga Árabe poco despues. Irak reconoció la independencia de Kuwait en 1963. Este what if simulariá un posible ataque iraqui sobre el emirato con un interesante equipamiento tanto occidental como sovietico contra las fuerzas britanicas.

-------------------
The operation Vantaje was a British military operation in 1961 to support the new independent state of Kuwait's territorial claims against its neighbor, Iraq. Britain responded to a request for protection by the Emir of Kuwait, in a matter of days, British maritime, ground and air forces were deployed in the area. Iraq did not attack the British forces and were replaced by the Arab League shortly afterwards. Iraq recognized Kuwait's independence in 1963. This would simulate what if a potential Iraqi attack on the emirate with an interesting Western and Soviet equipment against British forces.


Cuban Missile Crisis / Crisis de los misiles de cuba
De todos es conocida la crisis de los misiles de cuba en 1962, con el despliegue de misiles sovieticos R-12 Dvina [SS-4 Sandal] en la isla, la posterior crisis con el bloqueo y amenaza de invasión por parte de USA, la escalada a la guerra con la URRS y la finalización de esta con la retirada de los misiles de alcance intermedio de cuba y turquia. El escenario que nos propone es un "what if" de que hubiera pasado si la guerra se hubiera tornado de fria a caliente en la isla, posiblemente con intercambio nuclear incluido.
-------------------
Everyone is aware of the missile crisis in Cuba in 1962, with the deployment of Soviet missiles R-12 Dvina [SS-4 Sandal] onthe island, after the blockade crisis and threat of invasion by the USA, the escalation to war with the USSR and the end of thiswith the removal of intermediate-range missiles from Cuba and Turkey. The scenario we propose is a "what if" that would have happened if the war had turned to cold to hot in the island, possibly including nuclear exchange.


Oriente Medio / Middle East 1967
Este escenario cubriria un "What if" concerniente a la guerra de los seis dias Arabe-Israeli, en el ultimo dia de la ofensiva israeli en los altos del golan y con la guerra mas que ganada, se produjese una intervención sovietica en la zona. Los planes incluian el desembarco de fuerzas  navales sovieticas en forma de 1000 voluntarios al norte del puerto de Haifa, el desembarco de un LST en el ismo del Sinai, el despliegue de fuerzas paracaidistas yel despliegue de unidades aereas sovieticas en siria y posiblemente egipto. Tambien se incluirian combates navales entre la flota del mar negro y la sexta flota. Es posible que diese lugar a una escalada nuclear.
-------------------
This scenario would cover a "what if" regarding the war in the Arab-Israeli six days in the last day of the Israeli offensive in the Golan Heights and the war more than earned, there be a Soviet intervention in the area. The plans included the landing of Soviet naval forces in the form of 1000 volunteers north of the port of Haifa, the landing of an LST in the Isthmus of Sinai, the deployment of paratroopers andthe Soviet air units deployed in Syria and possibly Egypt. It would include naval battles between the black Sea Fleet and Sixth Fleet. It is possible that would lead to nuclear escalation.


Okean 1970
La operación Okean-70 fue llevada a cabo por la marina sovietica en 1970, en un intento de demostrar su superioridad tecnologica de submarinos sobre sus pares occidentales. Mas de 200 buques actuaron agrupados en Task Forces (fuerzas de tarea) bajo un mando unificado. El escenario trataria si dicha fuerza naval podria hacer frente en combate en caso guerra.
------------------
Okean-70 The operation was carried out by the Soviet Navy in 1970 in an attempt to demonstrate its technological superiorityover their peers Western naval. More than 200 ships acted grouped into Task Forces (Task Force) under unified command.The scenario would try if the navy could face war if in combat.


Escenarios en Vietnam / Vietnam Scenarios
Varios escenarios que integrarian a las fuerzas armadas de la Republica de Vietnam del Sur contra las fuerzas armadas de la Republica Socialista de Vietnam del Norte

-------------------
Several scenarios that would integrate the armed forces of the Republic of South Vietnam against the armed forces of the Socialist Republic of North Vietnam.


India vs the US (Pakistan Indian War 1971)
En este "What if" elementos de la frota americana, en este caso la TF74 al mando del portaviones "Enterprise", se enfrentarian a fuerzas indias y los grupos de superficie y submarinos en la bahia de bengala durante la guerra India Pakistani de 1971
-------------------
In this "What if" elements of American rub in this case the TF74 in command of the aircraft carrier "Enterprise" would faceIndian forces and the surface and submarine groups in the Bay of Bengal in India Pakistani war of 1971


Okean 1975
Una version mas avanzada de Okean-70, esta vez con nuevas unidades, tacticas mejoradas y tecnologia mas moderna.
-------------------
A more advanced version Okean-70, this time with new units, tactics improved and more modern technology.


US vs Iran 1979
Durante la crisis de los rehenes de 1979, los Estados Unidos diseñaron y pusieran a prueba una ambiciosa operación de rescate que incluia la participación de la marina, la fuerza aerea y cuerpos de operaciones especiales para rescatar a los rehenes secuestrados en la embajada estadounidense en Teheran, la operación fue un fracaso por errores graves durante su ejecución, pero en este "What If", la fuerza de rescate podria llegar a Teheran y intentar rescatar a los rehenes y escapar al golfo persico. Aparatos de la UsNavy fueron repintados para impedir ser confundidos con los aparatos de la fuerza aerea irani.
--------------------
During the hostage crisis of 1979, the United States designed and would test an ambitious rescue operation that included the participation of the navy, air force and police special operations to rescue hostages held at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran the operation was a failure because serious errors during execution, but in this "What If", the rescue force could reach Tehran andtry to rescue the hostages and escape the Persian Gulf. USN devices were repainted to avoid being confused with the apparatus of the Iranian air force.


Hay que tener en cuenta que dichas suposiciones son solo especulaciones mias y me centro en los hechos historicos referentes a posibles desencadenantes y cursos de acción. Espero que os haya sido de ayuda y veremos si estoy en lo cierto.
---------------------
Keep in mind that these assumptions are speculative only mine and I focus on the historical facts and possible courses of action triggers. I hope you have been helpful and see if I am right. Meanwhile, more news from the front
