Those days I've been reading Tom Clancy Red Storm Rising (RSR) again and again.
I'm fascinated by the first aeronaval battle, when Tu-22M Backfires thoroughly devastate a fleet of aircrafts carriers escorting a Marines amphibious force. Among horrendous casulaties Ticonderoga, Nimitz and Saipan are badly damaged or sunk by swarms of supersonic antiship missiles.
Then there is also the French carrier Foch, which is wrecked and probably sunk by three missiles. I often wondered how would the crippling loss affect the French Navy in the war and afterwards. More generally, I want to write vignettes set in the RSR alt history. So, without much fanfare, and inspired by the varied Red Dawn threads on this board...here is a Red Storm rising thread.

I plan to update the posts with photos (and if someone wants to try some CGI, that person is welcome !)
