Total Confrontation: The Storm Is Brewing

I gave this book the wrong title. It should have been called "Total Confrontation: Modern Joint Command Operations". But never mind, maybe I can change it later.

This book has no System, no golden finger, and no overpowered hero.

It’s a realistic, hard-edged military novel.

I’m aiming to depict a full-spectrum confrontation across land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace under near-future conditions. The characters mainly serve the development of the situation, so they’re not especially deeply developed.

The story takes place on Verdun, an Earth-like planet.

On this ancient world, two naval powers, one old and one new, will clash in a sea known as the Western Pacific.

In this book, you’ll find close-range dogfights, beyond-visual-range aerial combat, anti-radiation operations, submarine hunts, modern naval warfare, electronic warfare, land and underwater special operations, and artificial intelligence integrated into the command structure.

Fans of War Thunder, Squad, DCS World, and other Slavic prison-yard survivors are welcome to join the discussion.

Here is the original blurb:

Amid the standoff between the Twin Oceans and the Landsea Republic, the Kingdom of Irawaddy is merely one corner of the board.

The Thousand Islands forward operating base, the Sunuhai Fleet assembling, combat air patrols from southern Landsea airfields, the Irawaddy jungle battlefield...

Intelligence officer Liu Guodong, a submarine captain, a pilot, an armored brigade officer, and a new recruit named Anthony are pushed from different directions toward the heart of the same storm.

And above them all, a super artificial intelligence called “Lighthouse” is taking command of the entire coalition force.
