Operation Oranges

Operation Oranges also previously known as Plan Orange (1911-1945) was a Shmakalakan Military plan to protect the Baja California Territory and potentially launch offensive operations against Mexico developed as a response to the 1911 Mexican Revolution which highlighted the need for Shmakalaka to ensure the security of the Baja California Territory.
Mexico instability has always been of concern to Shmakalaka especially sinse 1845 when the Baja terriotry was given to Costa Dourado which is a predecessor state to the Modern Shmakalaka. The Plan is known as oranges due to the Orange tree lined Streets of the Baja Terriotry.

The need for a Plan to defend the territory was needed however nothing was ever finalised, in the wake of the Zimmerman Telegram it became apparent that Shmakalaka may have to conduct military actions against Mexico. Experiences of the First World War showed that Shmakalaka could utilise trench warfare and the rugged terrain to defend the around 100km wide peninsular to the North of the Territory from the numerically larger Mexican troops while the Navy conducted operations in the Sea of Baja to the East.

As a result of seeing the effectiveness of Combined arms offensives in the Second World War, Plan Orange was updated to Operation Orange in 1945.
Operation Orange involved using the Parachute Infantry Battalion to drop into the peninsular behind lines as well as the 2 Marine battalions landing on Mexican shores under the cover of the Naval superiority, a Bridgehead would be established where the rest of the forces would be landed, including the Artillery Regiments and the Armoured Regiment, the Royal Shmakalakan Airforce would also begin operations. A systematic Breakout would then occur, with the aim of retaking the Territory as well as cutting Mexican forces off and trapping them, forcing a surrender.

Operation Orange was more or less abandoned by 1976 with the improving of ties between the 2 nations.
