It is EXACTLY like that. The book was amazing..but it doesn't change that I'm stuck on this level
The only thing that I don't like about Tom Clancy books is that they're very "RAH RAH RAH, America!!!" and he makes the other countries involved, usually Russia, seem like they're full of incompetent idiots. His books also strike me as being VERY VERY pro Republican party and anti Democratic party. There's little snips against the Democrats and liberals all over his writings.

As for that scenario, it all comes down to luck and getting yourself prepared for the attack and praying for the best.
