Yeah, I think aircraft carrier radar is less than 300 mi, and I don't think you'd have one that close by chance (you'd need 700 aircraft carriers to guarantee coverage of the entire ocean).

Wait, isn't the rig by Padnak? And Padnak is by Australia. So if the rig is by Padnak, I could say my destroyer was going to Australia for a visit. Right?

Playing devil's advocate, wouldn't you stay well outside of their exclusive economic zone, especially given the tensions in the region?

I am going to Australia, what is wrong with that?

Oops, I just got something wrong. Yeah, that explanation is fine.

If I may, Padnak, I think silence is working against you right now. You might build more international support if you start talking to a couple big new agencies about "Vanconian aggression!" or something.

its disputed territory, but a neutral warship crossing through it would probably be possible

Keep in mind that Padnak is basically pre gulf war Iraqi, going public might not be the greatest idea lol

It's actually fine, I think. You can only legally claim resources within 200 mi of your land, so he can stay outside that and still "watch" what's going on inside.

Ah, yes.

Hey Republic of Vietnam, if you could try and make your posts a little longer that would be excellent

just add lots of fluff and you'll be good

Are you talking about the second post? I made that longer. And sure. I will have a long post when the Migs come. Don't have too much to write about now.

Yes I was referring the second post, its all good now

Padnak, be prepared to loose some fighters and men. My stuff is good beyond comparison. You think your Soviet Supermaneuverable jets gonna help you? Get ready for these planes.

Now I need a place to send planes. I don't have an aircraft carrier in the area. The closest carrier is by the Spratly Islands. I can't say I have aircrafts in Australia. But I can send planes from a base in Phillipines and Guam.

I wouldn't be so smug if I were you. You've got an unescorted carrier in enemy waters.

Still, Padnak has Soviet era stuff.

If you ready the posts, I have eight ships there. One is a Carrier. That still has nearly ninety planes left.

Don't you two think you might be rushing into this? You've seen an oil rig in disputed territory with hostile helicopters over it, and your response is "SOUND THE DRUMS OF WAR!!!"

Oh, huh, so you have sixteen fleets in the Pacific, not sixteen carriers. That's a tad less believable, but I guess it's still okay.

I saw an oil rig, two destroyers, and two civilian ships being destroyed.... I think I am qualified to assist.

What is with you and the intentional prodding? Stop it. This is an RP. I needed SOME way of getting there. If you want to be realistic, how do you still have a military budget with your space budget?

And that sums up our international policy.

What ever you do, don't try to blow up my destroyer.

Oh it's not your destroyer. Pad's.

I was poking a bit of fun at you, and I don't mind much, but the OP did say to try diplomacy first, which is why I'm trying talks with Vancon and just flying a few satellites.

Whenever I look on NSTracker I try to halve whatever I see 'cause half of Defence goes to Space Command (which also does the robots). I forgot to in my app, want me to change it?
