First of all ambrafoxtrot its a very good read, but realy I think its completely implausable.
The only way to incapacitate a military power of the magnitute of America is to launch a suprise first strike nuclear attack on it. Only the Soviet Union at the absolute height of its power would have even contimplated this and it would have led to its own destruction at the hands of an American nuclear counter attack.
A "devastating attack to all the major facilities of the U.S. Navy, by the entire pool of special naval forces available to the World Coalition".
Well I suppose its possible but it would take some amount of planning and logistical coordination and the US military realy would have to be asleep for any of it to even partially succeed.
" At the price of practically the annihilation of the World Coalition naval Special Forces"
Yes I would expect this to happen fairly quickly!
" a sufficient degradation of American Naval Power was achieved to make an invasion by sea possible"
At best I'm sure they would get some ships, maybe even an aircraft carrier or two, but they won't get everything or even close to it. But what about the other ships at sea and the nuclear attack submarine fleet? Also what about the rest of the US military, the USAF in particular?
" The rest of the strategic and operational justifications for the establishment of beachheads on the continental Unites States are: the simultaneous assault by several major military powers all around the territory of the United States, with the attacks coming from multiple directions and with the help of a consistent strategic surprise".
So in addition to the US military and intelligence community completely missing the special forces attack on its navy, they also don't notice the naval build by foreign powers in the Atlantic and Pacific who's ships are steaming towards the US East and West Coast, or the massing of Mexican troops south of the border?
Also if the US navy has just been attacked in this way wouldn't the rest of the US military be realy pissed and would be quickly looking for a target to blow the crap out of? Do you not think that rest of the US Navy and the USAF would be looking at all those foreign warships with invasion troops cruising off the US coast and wouldn't put two and two together fairly quickly? Also even if we discount the US strategic nuclear forces which in 1999 are the most powerful in the world, the US also has a very large number of long ranged strategic bombers and TLAM armed nuclear submarines who are designed to attack and obliterate hostle targets very far away from the US.
"THE WORLD COALITION formed by:
The European Federation (Italy, Germany, France Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg)
Russia, Ukraine, Belarus
China
Mexico
Cuba"
None of these countries with the exception of Russia has the geographical advantage or the naval logistical capacity to succesfully land invasion troops in America by sea, and Russia could only do it in Alaska and the Canadian Pacific. Cuba might pull off a limited invasion of Florida if America was totally asleep but its ships would be quickly sunk and it troops mopped up once it woke up. I think Mexico could realy only military invade America in the circumstances of the Twilight War.
"Countries that intervened in defense of the United States, and are currently engaged in various degrees of military operations against the World Coalition:
Japan
United Kingdom
Canada"
I think probaby the worst enemies to have if your trying to invade America from Europe, the Far East or the Arctic. Britain and Japan are major military powers, especially naval powers and they could in their own right severly disrupt naval operations against the US in either the Atlantic or Pacific. The Royal Navy's nuclear attack submarine fleet is deadly, maybe the best in the world, and even excluding the US nuclear attack subs it would cause huge problems for any European or Russian naval force in the Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. Britain and Japan also support large numbers of USAF assets which could be rapidly and massively reinforced in wartime from CONUS in addition to their own not insignificant air power.
