Not even some, but very few Sminishian Jet Fighters are affected by gunboats, one jet fighter is reported to be taken down by RPGs in close, short and primitive range. As for the snipers, no matter how high caliber they are, not one fighter was taken down by snipers, though two DID get close to be taken down due to bullets almost hitting the cockpits, but hitting metal parts instead. They detect enemy jet fighters on their radars, and soon pull out of the Kampf fleet, flying away from it until they exit AA range, they come back to the naval battlefield, this time at a higher altitude in order to take down some enemy Python fighters. However, the surviving 9 fighters won't be the only ones dogfighting the Python Jet Fighters, but newer Jet Fighters that make up a larger number to assist in taking down these flies off the air, the first act of a Jet Fighter against the Python fighter is chase one, lock it down, and launch Air-to-Air Missiles. Most of these Jet Fighters that took off from land airbases and 8th fleet carriers are supported through both towed lock-on jammers and their own lock-on jammers to prevent the enemy from locking missiles against them.
Even if the more front vessels of the two Sminishian fleets have their AA defenses and command bridge jammed, both fleets detect enemy Long Range Ship-to-Ship missiles arc through the sky, and their response? Locking the missiles down, and launching a large salvo of ABMs towards those ASBMs. Six Vessels have been affected by those missiles, and two of those said vessels sunk. As the newer Kampfian fleets arrive to assist the current ones, naval mines that still had those torps launch another wave of acoustic one-hit kill torpedoes (though they ARE supposed to be one-hit kills) towards the new fleets. The admiral of the fleet looked at the Kampfian fleets through radar, and physical view, seeing that they still use battleships, he chuckles just a little bit, but he also understands that the Sminishian Socialist Republic is in a truly serious war against an Empire that has won many, many wars and committed war crimes, he orders to request naval reinforcements from nearby docked fleets. Hours later, two new fleets, which are the 9th fleet and the 3rd fleet arrive to assist the defending fleets. The 8th and 3rd fleets, under commands of their admirals and Command Center Number 29, launch a large salvo of Ship-to-Ship missiles against the growing Kampf first wave.
In Neue Freea, the civilian police officers are working to peacefully crush discrimination and ethnic tensions between Germans and Slavs, while the Military police are doing warranted, completely justified and lawful investigations on areas of the highly urban city, however, investigations are limited, done with warning and balanced because an all out investigation is an invasion of many privacies of citizens, and the Neue Freea governor won't tolerate that.
All nine divisions guarding the borders of the triplet cities give time for the Kampfian officials for citizens to evacuate from the cities, they even make room for evacuations before launching the operation, as they do not wish for harm towards civilians, time after evacuations later, either one or two missiles are launched at each barricades that the Kampfian police have set up, thus the three divisions in each cities finally starting the offensive operation, however, one division each city are the ones advancing onto the citiesas the two divisions each city are backup or waiting for something, all of these divisions consist of: Well equipped infantry soldiers (every kind of modern infantry) armed with M27 assault rifles, AK-12 Assault Rifles, any models of handguns and breacher rifles; Vehicles (or non-manned land drones) such as IFVs, CLAW Units for support, Main Battle Tanks and HUMVEEs; Support such as Medical Support (though every infantry has Military First Aid Kits), Rocket Artillery Support (awaiting for coordinates while being outside the city) and Medical Support. As the first divisions march into the cities, they warn that they mean exactly NO harm towards civilians, they are also watching out for any surprise attacks/ambushes.
