Kweassa,
Having read this, and having put a lot of thought into a response, IMHO what you've stated would work better in a new, Fresh-sheet-of-paper type of game.
I could tell you right now, that the concept would be better recieved in such light as a new, non-AHII flight Simmer type of environment. IMHO, the type and number of players in here would dramatically rebel at the thought of having to take orders that might curtail their score, make them do something they would rather not, or simply would'nt let them up at will. Plus, it would have to rely heavily upon the honor of the CO's of each side(What if one country decided, with 100+ players at his disposal, to fly nothing but NOE sneaks?)
The supply and logistics idea, however, has some merit...After all, the Airlift in the CBI was infamous, as was the German attempts to resupply the 6th Army at Stalingrad. This, this might be incorporated into the current AH and recieved with open arms. But too many people are fed up with country-channel generals already. My 0.02 cents.
