Default Where in the World is Diego Garcia?

Actually, I know where it is, but what has happened to it re: the Twilight War? It has lots of supplies, fuel, an airstrip capable of handling b-52s, and several B-2 bombers stationed there (at least in realtime today). What's damaged, what's left, and how do we get there to loot it?

I think you probably mean "had" all that stuff.
Several years into the war the vast majority of stores all over the world would have been depleted. With the Nukes wiping out virtually all significant production and transportation, those stores are extremely unlikely to be replenished.

So, the airstrip might still be useable, but what's the point when there's hardly any aircraft flying about wasting valuable fuel?

However, my guess is that it would have attracted a nuke. Situated where it is, and housing one of the five GPS monitoring stations not to mention being a rather important naval base, etc, it would almost be considered criminal to think the Soviets would leave it intact.
