You can bring billions of engineers, but only a maximum of 250 will work in the base (per code). There is no Hellcats...yet, nor Corsairs.
one million of supplies ?? the bests AKs bring 7.000 tons of supplie.. 100 of them 700.000, but you don't have 100, so several convoys of 100+ AKs will be flying around...
Overall, I think the idea of an assault over Java is unaffordable right now... Besides, with all the toys PzB has...it can be a bloody job.
I doubt that limit of 250 engineers too. In a full campaign i did against the AI i remember that at the end when i dropped huge amounts of engineers (in the 1000nds of equivalent) the bases realy exploded in size realy fast.
And it was more or less a theoretical list of things you would have to do if you realy want to create an almost independent base deep in enemy territory by "suprise" if you cant keep your lines of supply open. And so what, put 300 xAks full of supply with your fleet. xAKs are the only thing you are not short of. xAPs to ferry all the troops in one drop would be a bigger problem.
If Andy would do such an operation is an good old all in and if you go all in then commit to it and to do it in a big way. I am not saying that this is the best way to achieve anything. Just dropping 10 divisions with 100k supply which are getting hammered by enemy air and naval assets is just a waste of ressources as it will be a desaster.
