Task Force Xeno (if you didn't gather this yet, they're pretty much task force 141 but different)

200 km North of Odogaron Beach, Lecelnan Union

-------------------------

Naval IC-41 landing craft sail alongside SSTB vessels just north of the Arctic Circle, unimpeded. This lack of resistance is then compromised by missiles soaring in from far away, promptly then blasted with photonlaser point-defense and CIWS systems. The fleet is 1000 ships strong; the vast majority being naval defense vehicles, like battleships and aircraft carriers. Contacts begin to appear on radar; though the Lecelnan Navy vessels' stealth characteristics were nullified by the New World Union's advanced radar.

The New World Union's fleet begins vectoring in and locking in missiles, as F/A-95EX and F-51EX aircraft begin taking off from SSTB carriers. A massive combat air patrol has now formed from the aircraft, which then start flying towards the enemy naval contacts. There are about 97 ships; 4 carriers, 47 destroyers, 23 cruisers, 14 submarines, 8 battleships, and other support vessels. This Lecelnan fleet steams towards the SSTB fleet, unaware of the pure missile hell coming their way.

Thousands of missiles rocket up from the New World Union's fleet. About two break off for each ship in the Lecelnan fleet, while the many others fly over and strike strategic targets such as military bases and garrisons deep into the mainland. Sirens blare, the Lecelnan fleet just now being aware that they're being targeted, and before their onboard CIWS systems can turn, the fleet was utterly and completely annihilated. Ammo magazines, missile launch systems, engines, all gone, reduced to scrap.

The ships of the proud Lecelnan superfleet remain now only as burning wrecks, as Lecelnan naval crew and air wing pilots leap from their ships into the water. The New World Union however, understands that it would simply not be very morally tasteful to leave them for dead, so drones are dispatched to the Lecelnan's rescue. These drones land onto the water and perform the role of flying boats, also using nanodrones to bend the currents to force Lecelnan sailors closer.

Many sailors internally pray to their 'lords of the CROSS' for this miracle, while others save prayers for later and climb aboard the flying boats. Only 0.05% of the crew remain in the water,  and the rest of them are lucky enough to have climbed aboard the flying boats. These unlucky casualties were not to be left behind however, as the drones activate tractor beams under their aircraft bellies. TCRS systems also activate for those who already drowned, and for those who died inside their ships.

These seamen are saved, with many voices heard and audible. "Thank the lords!" and "I'm saved!" are audible across the scene alongside other generally grateful messages from Lecelnan sailors and officers. The drones fly back across the SSTB fleet and back to their home base on Condetena, offloading the PoWs recovered from the sea. They walk in orderly lines escorted by infantrybots through processing portals.

The New World Union's massive armada meanwhile begins to break off into groups, with heavily armed vessels defending groups of 50 IC-41 landing craft. They form up around predesignated areas; the beaches designated in Operation Primo Victoria. Waves of IC-41 landing craft slam against the shores of Odogaron Beach, and groups of infantrybots pile out alongside ISUGVs, dolphin diving onto the beach and crawling towards the hills--though some opt to run instead--.

F-51s, HSF-14s, and CASA-10s fly overhead, strafing and hovering like helicopters or buzzing and strafing like planes. Enemy positions are annihilated, and one pilot using an L/RVX recon saucer called Rosie the Rocketer bombards Lecelnan bunkers and tanks with TEAAML and M154 launchers, alongside his existing railguns. A special IC-41 painted with special digital identification colors has its doors pop open, and six heavily armored and heavily armed operators exit, one of them kneeling to cover the others as they exit.
