I think the russians would likey try and conventional destroy the canal since alot of war material travels through it, IE ammo, rations ect via container ships. In the the book Red Strom Rising, Tom Clancy writes about the North Korea attemping to block the canal at both ends sending ships into the canal and blowing them up at the frist set of locks. I figure the plan would call for four merchant ships, two rigged to blow up, one for each side of canal, the other two ships would outfitted for mine laying at ethier entrance. This plan might carried on earlier in Twlight given that the west is supplying China.
