About Resurgent

Kirov Series, The Next War, Volume 4

After stunning setbacks in the Pacific, the US Navy regroups and again braves the threat of China’s ballistic missiles. As the Chinese plan a strategy of maritime isolation around Taiwan, the resurgent USN boldly challenges their operations northeast of Taipei on the Japanese island of Yonaguni.

In the South China Sea, Argos Fire leads the Gator Navy on a campaign to neutralize reef island outposts and gain control of the Spratley Island region, China’s new maritime province of Sansha. They soon face strong opposition from powerful task forces built around the new carrier Taifeng.

In the meantime, Admiral Karpov leads the Russian Pacific Fleet on two major sorties to threaten the flank of US naval operations. Kirov and company are given free rein to begin commerce raiding in the Pacific. As tensions rise in Korea, China’s North Seas Fleet fights for control of the Yellow Sea. With war in Korea almost certain, Karpov learns a vital task force carrying the US 25th Infantry Division is now at sea, and sets out to make sure it never reaches Japan.
