Basically a "Who do you trust more?" question.
I wasn't gonna specify an aggressor country but the answer looked like it's gonna depend on who that is, so I picked Israel.
On my first playthrough,.. I thought government budget was just a stat that could go into negatives. Too late I realized.
I also "quick-skipped" a few dialogues and now I am retiring early. Amazing game.
I've been dealing with Udaloys, so far they've been impenetrable by my even 10 salvo Harpoons together with offensive jamming(I am using it correctly, shielding my own missiles and jamming the enemy ship ). Manages to intercept all of them with missiles without sweat. This has been consistent for the last few workshop missions I've played from different creators.
It really bugs me that in the Udaloys description it says "They are so specialised in ASW, that they have reduced air defenses".
Do I really need 20 salvo for a single Udaloy so I hit them maybe once? Do I have to go full Soviet as US for a single Udaloy?
