Second Battle of the Denmark Strait; World War 3 1994

Hey Everyone;
Back again with another scenario for my "World War 3; 1994" eries, this time set in the icy waters of the Norwegian Sea based on Tom Clancy's epic novel "Red Storm Rising"
Hope you all enjoy!
Note: scenario is currently only playable from NATO side.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1994;
World War 3 is raging around the world. At the same time China and the USSR are attempting to conquer the last of the Pacific Islands, the Soviets have launched another offensive in Europe. the northern Nordic countries have all suffered major setbacks and lost their northernmost military installations to the Soviets, opening up an air route for Soviet bombers into the North Sea and the Atlantic.
May 1994;
NATO intelligence sources have uncovered information about a plan by the Soviets to conquer Iceland to cut off Allied access to the Norwegian Sea, shut down the SOSUS line across the GIUK gap, and to launch surface and submarine raids into the North Atlantic.
Having been predicted a decade earlier by author Tom Clancy, NATO has prepared for such a tactic and has dispatched three taskforces to try and hold the line at Iceland before the Soviets can make it ashore.
France has sortied the carrier Foch, with the UK providing the Illustrious, and the United States being unable to provide a CVBG has instead sent the Iowa BBBG. Additionally, NAS Keflavik has a number of aircraft present.
The Soviets meanwhile have sent the "Peter the Great" Kirov and Battlegroup, alongside a Kiev Battlegroup, and a large invasion flotilla. Additionally, the Soviets have strategic bombers operating out of Northern Norway and the Kola Peninsula.
