Re Air Assault onto the runway by landing the C130,
I am pretty sure Australia did that at the start of the Timor
op, landed and deplaned on the runway and then spread out.
Of course they were not under fire and were covered by
some troops on the ground beforehand but the scenario
is the same, just a faster pace !!!
Yes, it is viable, if all goes to plan.
Someone needs to do some serious joint ops planning
because these joint ops can easily turn to **** without
any help from the MPA forces !!!
