You have recently been hired as a part of a mercenary company dedicated to the hostile takeover of the nation of Mexico for economic purposes.

Make them pay for the nukes.

There is no land left to hold.

rofl
It's a proper nation with a population nearly as large as Russia's, a fucking PMC isn't taking over shit.
He said Mexico. It's just sand and chili.
so you've got some extreme asymmetric warfare, thats something general enough to think on.
>what do you need to hold any fucking thing?
you'd need to neutralize anything big or indirect. missile systems, artillery, naval battery. all that would absolutely fucking destroy your entire force instantly. place your forces in their own population centers? also risky.
They can keep Mexico
Yeah I don't know anything about mexico. It would be same as Afghanistan because the cartels would just hide in the mountains. Mexican government forces are probably better
noted.
nukes don't solve anything
Sure they do. The explode the shit out of things you don't like.
Yeah so you can rule an irradiated wasteland full of starving people
Nah, you just nuke em and leave. Fuck em and fuck their land.
just dig in from the side and exploit underground resources. moleman style.
>How do you start
Massive airborne landing at an airport outside of Mexico city. Surround major cities and drive to Mexico city to help the Airborne forces secure the city.
>What weapons do you use
80s Soviet shit
>What are your tactics
The enemy is already defeated so just focus on counterinsurgency stuff
>What are your stategies
A simple 2 week operation seizing AMLO and proclaiming some other dude as president
>How do you hold the land
Checkpoints everywhere
>How do you preserve economic usefulness
If I own all the roads I win
>How do you reignite the industries once you hold it all
Not my problem
Like the whole thing? I guess I'd

You might say just work with the Cartels but firstly, that's stupid, and secondly tons of Mexicans hate and actively try to drive off the Cartels. If I want to own the place I need the people of Mexico at my back to make occupation less painful

Trying to do it the old fashioned way would just make you an enemy of everyone and no PMC has that kind of firepower to put down a whole country the size of Mexico
if you've got enough US funding to not need the drug trade you could just knockoff cartel bosses and absorb their command structure as-is.
This thread was started by a vatmoron who kept seeing that pic comparing the Russian invasion of Ukraine to a hypothetical American invasion of Mexico and now he thinks he can get a decent gameplan out of autismos on the internet
Well, if the US nukes Mexico, it'll have a better idea on how to nuke Russia.
This post was made by an unhinged weirdo who can't stop thinking about slavic retards.
You'd need a lot more than a group of mercs, so I'm answering as if I had a small army.
>How do you start.
Fake a ground invasion from Texas to draw enemy forces northward. Suddenly launch a massive amphibious assault from the Gulf of Mexico. Go straight for Mexico City and behead the government.
>What weapons do you use.
Rifles in 5.56, .308, .30-06, and handguns in 9mm and .40 S&W. Also anything the Mexican Army leaves behind.
>What are your tactics.
Blitzkrieg in the push for Mexico City. Fireforce with helicopters in rural areas. Outbursts of unparalleled brutality to horrify civilians into submission and to break the will of cartel thugs. Limited ethnic cleansing because fuck it why not?
>What are your strategies.
Same as my tactics I dunno.
>How do you hold the land.
Colonize it.
>How do you preserve economic usefulness.
Agriculture, energy production, tourism.
>How do you reignite the industries once you hold it all.
White people magic.
>How do you start.
False flag terror attack on US soil. Again.
Alternatively, convince Mexican politicians to stray from the petrodollar standard and begin trading oil in Pesos.
>What weapons do you use.
Everything the US military currently uses
>What are your tactics.
See above
