For Gonswanza, I'd say it would have to be the terminator satellites with robot arms.

I would say Pluto 5 bomb, or the Pluto bomb series in general. One of the bombs is being held secret even to the military members. Now about this bomb, this can reduce your WBCs on your body, and yea, its contagious. Did I mention its also nuclear?

BN do my equipments please. Its on the top of my military dispatch

The fact that they use carbon nanotube armor (which is far more expensive than kevlar but doesn't share the same strengths) paired to helmets rated highly against pistol rounds, but not rifle rounds, which just has me fear being their infantry, along with the fact that they have to rely on sticky grenades and are given the option of using a minigun in what one can assume is a hand-held form, though the sheer lack of an exoskeleton would also mean that said armed infantry would be unable to carry anything else short of ammo to feed said weapon.

Regardless, I suppose one can only pray that they get their gear problems sorted out in due time.

I think that the Kashmir MBT is one of the intimidating elements of the Gonswanza Army equipment due to its heavy armor and overall focus on survivability rather than firepower or mobility. These include things like the advanced active defense and kill system, designed to protect the tank from ATGMs of various kinds. The hull also allows it to survive and protect the crew from anti-tank mines that could knock out other tanks. While it doesn't have the 140mm gun like its lighter counterpart, the 130mm cannon that it sports does offer more advanced munitions.

First, their military centered culture is but one of the many terrifying Aspect that makes a country strong in battle, and they are peak militarist for what I have read. A soldier so hellbent on defeating the enemy that a branch of soldiers tasked with cooling down the battle fevered soldiers had to be formed.

Second is their integration of man and automated beings in the battlefield. Their Tactical Artifical Military Intelligence proved to be a formidable AI in assisting men with battle. Normally people would go either full on human or full on AI, but combining the former's high capability of decision during a tight situation and the cold yet fast calculation of the latter made it so good, I can't think of any "holes" within such wonder.

Third comes their FTL technology. It's quite obvious. Any nation who can utilize such technology is mighty by default.

Edit: a typo in the word calculation.

As I've mentioned with several other nations, the use of magic is a feature that the Caleshan do not have an easy response for. It is well that the nature of the magic employed by HTG is seemingly intended as a functional replacement for much of what we consider to be MT and PMT technology, but it has a depth of information to it that means that there are a wide variety of creative uses that cannot be accounted for simply by looking at the listings.

So it ain't just the magic, it's magic that they've given a goodly amount of thought in shaping.

Their military is dominated by magic like ours, but boy, do they not f*** around. They fuse their magics with pretty much PMT technologies to create numerous flawless Units. It's like you can't find any weakness at all, if there's any.

The robotic soldier (G2-SCU).

Give it a gun, orders, and a little military hardware and it can replace an infantryman on the field, with far better chances of survival. Gonswanza is seeking to do the same, but to see a nation already embracing the future is terrifying, knowing that such things can easily offer an advantage in the field. Alas, while it may have a few minor flaws, those flaws are easily overlooked given the sheer advantages of such disposable infantry.

I like this factbook a lot because it contains a section describing international treaties; I'm not sure I've seen something like that before. It provides excellent backstory and a sense of history, an idea of the kind of strategy and agenda that the nation is involved in.

Wrong thread.

The Revolution-class destroyer. For it's size, it has an insane amount of VLS cells. 290 cells, to be exact. That makes it an Arsenal Ship, not a destroyer. That would scare me, even if I wasn't on the recieving end of it's firepower.

Mirum: FJ-07 Raider, its carries a significant payload (20,000 lbs) of either missiles/bombs/or torpedoes depending on its target which is nothing to scoff at. So, it's able to deliver vast amounts of pain and devastation in small but somewhat agile platform. It also has an impressive range of 3,000 miles which I think increases its lethality tenfold, as they can take off from airbases well behind their lines to strike frontline targets or targets well in enemy territory.

Cannonio: With the limited information, I would say the size of their military is one of the scarier things about them.

BN: Something other than my navy or FTL tech
