23. Saturation Bombing
24-7 round the clock bombing by b52's B1, B2, dropping 100k lbs of bombs at once. Cluster bombing and aerial mining. All the f and a type aircraft can detect moving vehicles on the ground at 30'000 feet, above the ceiling of their man portable sams. Anything heavier would be wiped out by HARM missiles once brought online by f117 or wild weasel units. They are using old soviet equipment like what we destroyed in gw1. Dispersion spreads out a forces ability to fight. Disrupted they would be picked off from the air and by Armor and helicopter gunships.

Carriers have defensive capability with their battle group and can can protect themselves.

In an hot war the rules would change and points of resistance would be bombed flat as in ww2. The loss of life would be huge.

However I believe this is a wargame. They are rattling their sabers and will go home when they get tired. In that event we will do nothing.
