Welcome to Red Alert 20XX. The aim of this mod is to pay tribute to old Command & Conquer games, while giving YR a fresh feel in a brand new cold war context.
At the end of the war of Liberation in Europe, the Allied High Command prioritized action on two specific sector of the Soviet military : their navy, and their airforce. Taking advantage of internal conflicts and the chaos in the Communist Party, massive Spec Ops operation were planned to completely incapacitate Soviet airforce, from production to maintenance facilities. The Soviet were never able to fully recover from those attacks. Nowadays, most of their air power is relayed back to helicopter production and atypical aircraft development, like the use of the Kirov Airship. This does not mean that communists states don't have jets fighters and bombers, but those units are few in numbers and this technology is reserved for tactical deployment.
Consequently, when the Soviets capture a Tech Airfield, troops are now delivered by Helix helicopter, instead of heavy cargo plane. Troop delivery is now a bit slower, but more infantries are deployed on the targeted zone to counter balance this weakness.
This means that the Chinese Helix will, indeed, be replaced in China's unit roster. More on that soon.
cool model! and more paradrop numbers is always welcomed.)
"communist nation" sounds pretty strange, as it's not a nationality, but an ideology(i understand it's just an info, still eye-cathing)
My bad, it's a typo :P
communist state makes more sense tbh
