Nato Blockade (Mission)

Mission Objectives

Several Soviet submarines are attempting to sneak/break past your blockade. You must find and sink them all. Germany, Norway and Poland assets are in the AO to assist you.

Mission Details

The mission is mostly ASW however there are other units in the AO that you can engage however not counted towards mission success. This is to give you something to do while you wait to find the subs essentially a semi objective.
You have multiple frigates, corvettes and aircraft at your disposal with aircraft being your primary.

The pace of the mission gives you about 3-5 real life minutes to setup your ships/aircraft however you want.
Mission can take 30 min to 1 hour plus depending on time compression.

Issues
Only Issue I have come across is sometimes the intel for the secret objective pops up before the actual trigger so it gives it away however you have to wait for it to trigger still to be valid.

Notes.
Russians have 2 subs and 1 possible ship that are not time period accurate however their weapon systems balance out for it and give it the challenge I wanted.

Several units are set to a chance spawn. Meaning some games will have them but others wont.

Tips
The polish helo is a huge help in finding the subs. Use its dipping sonar and active at above and below the layer. Usually doesn't take terribly long to find at least one with it.

Depending on what spawns you may need CAP fighters.

When you hear new intel, check its tab under event log.
