Canaries under Siege

Description
A soviet task force has managed to pass the G-I-UK gap under the cover of bad weather. NATO has lost contact with them but believes that they will circle around and hit Iceland. Only spanish intelligence suspects them to head south and strike the canary islands. With most NATO forces searching in the rough north atlantic waters without finding even a trace of the soviets, it becomes apparent that the spanish intel was right. The Armada Espanola has positioned all of her Santa-Maria class ships to defend the island and NATO airbase on Gran Canaria. A strong US surface action group is now also enroute towards the islands but might not get there in time. The soviets bring landingships and a large Heli-carrier to strike the island and support the landings from the air. Will the spanish defenders win the day or will the soviet assault capture this vital airbase from where they can strike out into the atlantic and threaten NATO convoys. You decide!!!!

I changed it up a bit and gave the soviets better aa and also weakend the NATO airbase. Should be more difficult now :D

Fun Mission
- the Soviet fleet gut stuck for me too, some more AA capability could be a good idea, with the EA-6B jamming they don't stand a chance and thanks to the Helo spawn you know exactly where they are.
- Don't know if you would detect the Bombers later, if they would fly lower, they could be a nasty surprise, but i just detected them way too soon.
- Some rougher Sea could be good, the OHPs and the US Fleet detected the Subs within seconds.

@buckoff124 yeah that might be a good idea. Airbases in player hands are so very strong that it is hard to balance.

@Anti-Personic Bullet thanks for the correction. It is annoying how easy one can miss a typo :D

This was fun. The red team helo carrier spammed all its helis which was annoying. Also its group was stuck to the south of that island they start near. I would suggest giving the red team something like an Udaloy for better AA defense. I about had them all destroyed before the USN SAG even showed up. I only lost 1 F-4 to a lucky 100mm shot.
