Operation Ironclad Advance is set to kick off with a straightforward yet critical mission: to secure a beachhead in Hong Kong using a combination of LPD ships and AAVs to transport ground forces across the West Philippine Sea. The focus is on delivering troops to the shores efficiently for an amphibious assault aimed at establishing a strategic foothold in the region of Hong Kong.
The operation hinges on detailed planning and coordination between the naval fleet responsible for transporting the marines and the air support tasked with providing cover and engaging enemy defenses. The primary goal is to capture key beach areas, setting the stage for further military actions and establishing a secure base for advancing forces.
