Winning a war does a lot for your popularity, it even managed to keep Thatcher in power...
We have seen that one before... its DMA's work and has already been mentioned in the other recent Australia vs Indonesia threads. I also stumbled across another TL over at CTT... one so utterly absurd that it makes even version 0.01 of Blackmages TL look probable. Hell! the damn git suggests using Microlights to neutralise the RAAF! Hell the microlights would be pressed to carry the warload he suggested let alone hit anything with it.If you're interested here's another Story that relates to an indoneasian Australian war.

And Superb F-14 Tomcat, no doubt that the poor indonesian fighters have any opportunities in confronting the rain of Phoenix that hit them.
The F-14 one of the best fighters of the history.

By the way CalBear you seem to have got the most probable result. I guess that leaves a moderate case to be done...
Lets see... round up some tensions in the Middle East and Korea and run one of the Pacific Fleet's CVNs aground? That should keep the US from direct involvement for things to be interesting... Guess that will be my next project.
