Also, I want to remind people that Comrade Stalin expressed interest in seeing something researched from those alien items we recovered.
Looking up at the notion, she reached out and took a few pictures from the already "older" folders and looked through them, before asking lightly: "How about we look into the Alien in the Stasis chamber once more? Thanks to our comrade we should have the basic computer technology to start digging through the facilities systems...and look into reviving the Alien in Stasis. Of course this is quite risky and I'm not completely sure if I wouldn't want to wait till we have some heavy weaponry pointed at the door to the chamber....but it would most likely be quite illuminating."
Putting a small paper forward she muses "As for what I have in mind this month..."
Social Action I:
With the visit to the border command finished and having seen that it does not also give us more ideas that we can work on, increase the troops moral and of course gives our policies a face when they meet someone from The Council/Soviet, I will continue my tour through our valiant armed forces to see what they think of the upcoming war and what they think they will need to operate better. My first visit will be to our Navy, especially in the Black Sea and in the Far East to hear what they think they are able to do in the case of war and what equipment they might need to better fulfil their roles. This might be especially needed as the Navy was quite neglected except for the new Destroyer Class and the new Shipyards.
Social Action II:
- Visiting the Soviet Air Forces
The important of our air forces in the upcoming war can't be ignored and my next visit will be with them, especially to talk about what they think of their current planes and how they rate their chances against Draka airplanes and doctrines we seen so far. They should tell us what they need and I shall promise to look into it as good as I can with the rest of the Union being in danger too. There's not much I Can plan right here: just to do the usual tour of visiting and talking with officers, pilots and engineers on the airfields, before returning to the Council full of ideas.
Research I:
While I'm not going to start an Super-Soviet citizen program anytime soon, I still see the possibilities in getting the ability to get ride of plentiful of genetic illnesses from our population and the super Soviet program is still something we can start later on....for now looking into the possibilities alone might be worthwhile.
Research II:
The folder for this research is hanging around since ages and with our advances in VK ammunition and ever larger vehicles and plans, we should also take a look into designing fitting armament for them, something that will only become more important if...or when we run into also VK armoured enemies.
Design Action I:
- Electronic Artillery Computer
After seeing the success the Fire Director for the AA was thanks to the use of electronics, we should try to see if this can be duplicated with an Electronic Artillery Computer that should allow our guns, ranging from the simple Infantry mortar to the larger artillery parks to shoot far quicker and more accurate.
Design Action II:
- Katyusha Rocket Artillery
With our advances in rocketry it would be a shame to solely concentrate on the large scale Ballistic Missiles, especially as we need a way to get ride of the large waves of Janissary the Draka will be throwing at us. They might be more "animals" than man after what they have gone through, but even then they won't be able to shake off the the full impact of a whole salvo of rockets screaming down on them and blasting their way through them. With the OTL Katyusha in mind, I'm quite curious just what our scientists are going to make out of this with all the new technology we have available...but without VK as long as it isn't really needed, after all one of their advantages was their cheapness which allowed the Red Army to field scores of this artillery vehicles.
Production I:
- Red Army Military Production complexes
With the Invasion looming before us, it is important we can get all the new advances like the new rifles, grenades, squad weapons and especially the armour and chemical protection to the soldiers of the Red Army. For this purposes new factory complexes shall be created that will be dedicated to fulfilling the needs of the Red Army and keeping them as best equipped with the new equipment we are designing as possible - after all there are millions of soldiers who all need an suit to protect them against chemical weapons and the new armour and weapons...lots of things to do.
Production II:
- Enlarged Facilities for Experimental Designs
The Bureau for Experimental Designs has done great work, more than I had initially expected and has proven its energies again and again. To improve the ease of their work they will be equipped with larger facilities to store weaponry they want to inspect, workshops to work on small scale prototypes and other facilities they need to test models and prototypes. Hopefully this will increase the scale or at least ease of their work for the future.
Military Action I:
- Begin instructing our military forces for Operation Red Dawn and Operation 14
With Operation Red Dawn and the possibility of Operation 14 being prepared and hopefully ready before the Draka attack, it is time to instruct our soldiers or at least their commanders and officers into the plans. This might proof risky should one of them be capture, but we should limit our raids for now and no physical copy of the plans should leave the commando HQs of the military Divisions to minimise any chance the enemy has on finding them out. Our soldiers have one to two months to prepare before this operations will start...they need to know the plan and be ready for it.
Military Action II:
- Drawing up Plans to Wrestle Control of the Bosporus from the Draka
With us having entered a cooperation with the Germans in Turkey, we also know of their influence in Bulgaria...and it would be quite a lovely thing if we could finally fulfil the Russian Dream of Holding the Bosporus and opening up the strait in the Mediterranean sea. For this purposes our military should see if it could be realistic to launch an attack from our side of the black sea at theirs, landing man and machines under the cover of our fleet and air-force to take out the defences along the strait, before sending our Navy in to help our army secure Istanbul and the surrounding area, cutting off all Draka holdings in the West and forcing them to use planes or ships to supply them...which we can raid. Maybe I can give some input on the potential on helicopters in the operation, but I think I'm looking forward to see what our military experts are going to say.
