EU1-The Iranhattan Project

This scenario is a study of a US air campaign to eliminate Iran's nuclear capability.

I have tried to represent all of Iran's major facilities that they are using for mining, refining, and preparing uranium as well as their research and production facilities.

The US Forces involved include the Eisenhower and her associated strike group as it is currently composed and deployed. I have also included the Stennis and her group which is due to depart on a WestPac deployment soon, and would be the next available carrier in theater. The air wings on these ships should also be accurate.

For the USAF, I've put everything in Qatar even though many of those aircraft would deploy from Turkey or Diego Garcia (I didn't want to make the map that big). Just for fun, I've included the 1st TFW and their F-22s out of Langley AFB, VA.

To keep it from being too much of a turkey shoot, I was a bit generous with the Iranian OOB. They do actually possess all of the units in the scenario, but it is unlikely that they would all be serviceable. In reality, they can probably only put up about a 3rd of the represented air force.
