So it would take longer overall than simply warping in save.

I will consider one
Doubt it matters. Avernus is integrating humanity into its ecosystem but will still not tolerate us 'disturbing the peace'. A dodgy piece of legitimate equipment is just as dangerous as a dodge piece of third party equipment.
Considering the diversity of psyker and psyker-like (plus Blank) effects present on Avernus I doubt the planet will make a distinction.
Pulling ships out of the warp is pretty much the same as demon summoning from a mechanics point of view. This will be the largest summoning since the Slannesh Incursion. Arguably bigger, we never did find out if the southern or opposite hemispheres got invaded.
Not entirely. Mainly it was a metric fuckton of daemons flooding in from the Warp Rift up in the arctic, with a bunch of Slaanesh aligned power bleeding into the world as the veil between the Materium and the Warp lessened. If Avernus was fully pulled into the Warp, then daemons could have appeared anywhere on the planet.
You mean the new transports can't take a flying fortress each? Hell of an oversight.

You do understand that the flying fortresses are the size of a small escort? It's not something you could easily transport.

Those things are pretty bloody big.
And transports tend to be bigger or at least more voluminous than combat ships, with lots of grunt for moving stuff. The new transport was designed knowing that the Explorator Vehicle can be deployed from orbit and that the Flying Fortress was in the development queue.
OTOH the flying fortress is self contained - a warp capable tug would suffice.

[X] Medium- as well as long range sniping and targets of opportunity there will be high speed attack launched on the Ork flanks and rearguard, allowing for all of your fast fleet to be used and inflicting far more damage, at the cost of losing a lot of ships- This option will inflict notable damage on the Ork fleet at the cost of many of your faster ships, reducing the amount of damage that Avernus will suffer but weakening your fleet.
[X] Targets of opportunity- One option would be to have your fleet target whatever targets are easiest, this would cause the most damage but would not kill enough of any one category to provide an advantage. This option is the middle path, targeting everything equally for little gain but no loss.
[X] Deploy Light and Medium forces to Attack as they land - More damage inflicted, all forces can disengage without much trouble

The new transport wasn't designed for that, the new new one maybe, we'll have to ask @Durin.

Yeah, but troop transports are designed to, well, transport troops, so any free space is filled with barracks, armories, garages, training halls, etc. Having huge kilometers long empty space inside just in case of needing to transport the flying fortress is hugely inefficient. If we ever make enough flying fortresses for each troopship that may be sensible but now it's just dumb.
EDIT: Now that I think about it a berth for for one or two flying fortresses (orbital drop/planetary assault variant) would be a really good addition to a Varangian Guard battle-barge(-s) though.

The more I think of it, the more the warp capable tug seems the way to go. Ramilles need them as well and we plan to develop some variants of those.
There is also the problem of retrieving these very expensive bits of kit from a planetary surface: their landing package seems like a one shot affair and they can't get anywhere near orbital speed under their own power. A Descent escort with a really good tractor beam might be just what is needed. The Descent concept never caught on so I suspect that we will find them underwhelming as combat assets. This use will help us get a bit more back from the investment since we will build a couple to try out - they look like they should complement our invasion fleet theme nicely. Tractor beams make a decent weapon for ground attack starships anyway.

The Well has some method of attaching them so it's pointless pontificating.
That being said have we researched the Well's plasma batteries.
The Well has a method for attaching one. It presumably has a method for retrieving it too. However there is only one Well of Urd and we can't necessarily replicate its methods. Or it could use atmospheric entry and a tractor beam itself.
@Durin,
1. How would the Well of Urd retrieve its Mobile Explorator at the end of a survey?

1. What's the difference lore wise between the Witch Hunters and Psyker Hunters? I mean they're trained for the same purpose, anti psyker duties, but one has a much higher willsave (60vs15) and a much higher anti psyker roll (70vs25). Are the Witchhunters trained in a specific way, which is why they have that -15 to all other rolls?
2. Do the admech understand how the Nutron Lasers work?
3. Will we get a chance to start making Northern Sentinels soon? They are supposed to be Titan Killers and we're invading Garkill's worlds which are bound to have Gargants.
4. Are we using Nova Canon Vortex Bombs?

- To the left. No, not there, the other left.
Witch Hunters were started by our first leader of Ministorum and are religious organisation while Psyker Hunters were created by Jane Oakheart and are non-religious organisation. For a long time they had more or less a same function but some time ago we reorganised Witch Hunters traning and operational procedures specifically fight high levels chaotic pskykers while leaving the lower ones solely to Psyker Hunters.
