Basrani Civil War: Escalation [Closed/OOC]

[Vymar]

Nation Name: The United Socialist States of Vymar
Alliance Affiliation: (FNRB/BDR-JaI/HB, BDF-JSDU-CRA, NPA) NPA
Order of Battle: (Structure/Number/List of your military/peacekeeping/monitoring personnel)
Advisory Division (200 troops and 60 Humvees)
Armored Division Bravo (100 IBT-63 Main Battle tanks and 100 XM-3 Main Battle Tanks, 3,000 troops)
Flight Division (100 troops, 100 IBF-17s)
Additional Information: (Any additional information you think people need to know)
Vymar has gotten involved to attempt to advise the NPA through the conflict and provide support through new armor units. As many Vymarian units are trained in terrorism, as many were prior terrorists to overthrow a fascist dictator.

100 is a bit much.

I mean, Russia only has about 50-60 combat aircraft and 20 helicopters in Syria... so... just tell me onfe you reduce the number and ill accept you.

Ive just reduced the numbers

[Basran]

Accepted. Also I am waiting for people that have been accepted to get their posts up before I make another one so things can progress smoother, so, yknow. Cmon.

I just got some time off work, so I'll be able to get a post up today hopefully

[Basran]

Alrighty, I will have my type my up tomorrow.

I would to it tonight but im not too sober and my head kills.

[Basran]

Yikes, yet another post delay, sorry for the inconvenience, personal matters are a bit iffy right now. It should be up by this time tomorrow/

Nation Name: The Empire of Rhinocera
Alliance Affiliation: (FNRB/BDR-JaI/HB, BDF-JSDU-CRA, NPA) NPA
Order of Battle: (Structure/Number/List of your military/peacekeeping/monitoring personnel) TBD (Probably an expeditionary force or a naval task force, not planning on sending an army group or anything like that. Might even limit to funding/equipping instead of direct deployments)
Additional Information: (Any additional information you think people need to know) The Empire of Rhinocera has a history of supporting regimes that face massive rebellion, making the NPA a prime candidate for Rhinoceran support. I'm also just getting back to NS after a 4-6 month hiatus, and this seems like a good RP to start with)

International Waters
1,900km away from five Furbish ships

---

---

"Targets are in sight, sir." said the weapons officer. Colonel Shao Yang nodded as he sat in the co-pilot seat of the Xian H-6K. Colonel Yang,
crown prince of the Shaochunese Royal Family, led the three squadrons. After refueling at Djibouti, forty Shenyang J-31 fighters along with fifteen Xian H-6K bombers headed straight towards Basran. Their target was not Basran, but instead, five Furbish ships en-route to Basran. Due to reach Basran in a few days, the five ships were easy target for the Shaochunese air armada.

With only one missile guided destroyer, the battle would hardly be fair. The Furbish forces said they would 'retaliate' if Furbish troops were attacked in Basran.
OSAN's job in Basran would be much easier if five Furbish ships were at the bottom of the ocean, which was what they were going to do. The fifty-five aircraft were still 1,900km away from the Furbish ships, an extremely far distance. With the YJ-12 anti-ship missiles, striking the Furbish would be much easier.

The YJ-12 missiles were deadly, and the chances of the Furbish even stopping them was low. Once the wave of sea-skimming missiles appeared over the horizon and was detected by the Furbish guided missile destroyer, they would only have some 45 seconds to engage before impact. The 15 bombers carried six YJ-12 missiles each,
meaning they carried around 90 supersonic missiles.

With this massive hurl of missiles, the Furbish had barely any chance. This was only the bombers, however. The J-31s had eight supersonic air-to-ground missiles, eight 500 kg deep-penetration bombs and thirty smaller bombs. The majority of the anti-ship missiles would be aimed at the Furbish guided missile destroyer, the FIS Zebra and the second-priority target would be the FIS Estonia. The other planes and the remaining missiles would wreck havoc on the rest of the fleet.

As the planes got closer at 1,500km, Colonel Yang gave the order. "Bombers, fire at will at targets. Fighters, stay in formation until impact, over." Ordered the Colonel over the radio. "May the Emperor live a thousand years!" Shouted the pilots in unison. The 90 YJ-12 supersonic anti-ship missiles were fired from the bombers,
heading straight for the Furbish ships! At Mach 3.5, the Furbish ships would be lucky to even see them coming.

So, the escalation phase is over?

So, the escalation phase is over?

Depends how the Furbish respond.

[Rhinocera]

Regardless of the Furbish response, Shaochun made a bold move. I'm curious to see if they can handle the inevitable blowback.

[Basran]

Those 2 Furbish ships are gone. RIP.

Anyway, my post is coming eventually. Its sort of mostly focused on the upcoming NPA/CRA engagement and FNRB/NPA engagement. The BDF will be mentioned soon enough.

Basically to sum up my response, all ships will be damaged, and the missile guided destroyer will sink. Since the 6 helicopters with troops have took off, the attack won't change that. All the ships will sail to and dock in Mumbai to get repaired and a few more ships will arrive. Also, when Shaochun's planes arrive back to their base in Djibouti, they have a nasty surprise awaiting them...

EDIT: not really, I don't want to escalate this further

My attack isn't over, Not yet .

The things that destroyed the missile destroyers were only missiles from 15 bombers. There are still 40 more planes armed with missiles that are going to attack the rest of the ships once you respond.

Ehhh... You attacked these ships at least 1 900km away from your base, but J-31 has max combat range 2 000km (even with additional fuel tanks), so now you definitely need to refuel back in your base.

[Basran]

I'm finding it hard to believe that both ships weren't sunk... 45 hypersonic sea-skimming anti ship missiles going at mach 3.5 fired from a close-ish range... I'm sorry but I'm really not seeing a plausible or realistic way as to how both the targeted ships survived. Realistically, ship defences would have been overwhelmed after the first few missiles.

It looks like Shaochun did not send any AWACS or similar aircraft to assist the jets and bombers, thus in order to precisely locate these ships they needed to communicate with their base in Djibouti. Furby also has a base in Djibouti so he could try to disturb communication between Shaochun aircraft and base in order to mislead bombers to attack the wrong position.

It also does not look like Furby disturbed any communication either.
