I've been thinking about how one would attack/raid the Kremlin, so I figured I would ask the board. What kind of attack, and how, I'm leaving to you, however there are some criteria:
1. Russia is currently on a military footing, and is currently fighting a conventional land war in Europe, so expect there to be CAPs, SAMs, and military forces on high alert
2. The objective is to capture the Russian leadership. Whether or not the attack involves holding the Kremlin until Allied forces arrive, or it's just a small raid to grab the targets is entirely up to you. Just remember that Allied forces could be days away, while the Russians will have reserves on the way within hours, which must be dealt with.
3. No nukes.
4. The attack must be done with current technology and take place in 2011/2012.
5. Even though it's most likely a suicide mission, the attack must take place (and hopefully succeed)
Russia ITTL has been rebuilding its military for most of the 2000s, so its forces are well equipped and well trained.
