What's the scariest thing about the AN's military? Part V

[South Americanastan]

The fact that they have managed to make an army solely out of private contractors, which are often very highly trained and always expensive as hell.

The vietnam war culture, talking with sons of vets from that war, its probably the scariest part

[Nacrad]

As a 8-million-strong country in the corner of Ireland, their ability to build what appears to be a Nimitz-class equivalent does scare me, as that means they can muster up a lot of money and resources to build them.

[Fenvaria Republic]

Their navy is quite imposing, however, I would pay special attention to the nuclear aircraft carrier they have.

[South Americanastan]

The Broadsword Nuclear Fusion missile. I can only imagine the effects of being able to launch missiles that create a radioactive cloud in large numbers.

[Acraus Federation]

The Lighting Mk 12 Strike Fighter. Our aerospace craft are optimized for space operations so they suffer in atmosphere, making enemy fighters a significant concern. Though we're not sure why any fighter would need 4 machine guns.

[Judaea-Samaria]

Definitely the Mechazilla of the Marines.

[The Caleshan Valkyrie]

I like how you call THAT a ‘small air division’. I mean seriously, that’s enough fighter craft to just chisel down an Independence Day Alien saucer.

FROM THE FT FACTBOOK:

They need no vehicles: Such things slow them down.

They need no armor: Such things only weaken them.

They need no firearms: They can throw spears faster, further, and more accurately.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-
*Screaming continues*

But seriously, throwing SPEARS faster than A GUN can shoot? ARMOR only WEAKENS them? VEHCLES slow them down? That is some downright terrifying stuff right there.

STATS:
--Length: 24 ft
--Width: 12 ft
--Height: 12 ft
--Top Speed: 55 MPH
--Range: 250 Miles
--Engine: Multi-fuel turbine
--Horsepower per Ton: 27 hp/t
--Armor: 3 inches of MK-2 Composite Armor (Titanium -- Depleted Uranium -- Titanium)
--Drive: AWD
--Crew: 4

special attention to the hp/t ratio of 27 which is very high and a top speed of 55 mph which after converting from imperialists units translates to 88km/h. The armor itself is alright. 3 inches isn't the thickest, I've seen thicker but titanium and depleted uranium are quite strong.

[Acraus Federation]

That Khundo experimental tank is quite concerning. Such a powerful gun it is armed with.

[Horde of One]

The use of different species, each tailored for a specific set of environmental conditions, on a multi species special forces.

[South Americanastan]

A strangelet bomb can destroy entire planets, and the people on them. And they drop it on enemies routinely.

[Lin-Ying]

Manhunt Wing. They can finish a war before it really starts.

[Synne Industries]

Without terribly extensive detail or much in terms of exact hardware specifications I can't really be certain about what I'm saying here but from what I've gathered I'd say my choice would be the multirole fighter aircraft. In a modern warfighting setting, multirole capabilities are generally desirable, especially if you can't maintain a large fleet of fighters or fund the development of/purchase specific models of strike fighters and air superiority fighters or whatnot. It's why many Western aircraft such as the later Vipers and Hornets see so much success in the hands of both large and smaller air forces. Having the ability to adapt to new threats during a mission is integral to any near-peer war.

[South Americanastan]

The fact that a good chunk of their population own military grade weapons. If they know how to use them properly, they could giva a military force a lot of trouble. Not to mention the potential for guerrilla warfare.

The Lightning Mk 12 Recon Plane – the thing goes at Mach 4.

[Azur Deutschland]

There's not really a whole lot to pick from...
I guess the 1000 helicopters is quite scary.

[GreatOceania]

I'm going with that most Troops can use magic and that can somewhat cause problems with my troops since they only have limited protection

[Vikanias]

That they never ever give up. I’m terrified

[The Caleshan Valkyrie]

I wonder what dinosaurs they are. Part of me wants to go with Compies, but I suspect slightly larger.

[South Americanastan]

They need no vehicles: Such things slow them down.

They need no armor: Such things only weaken them.

They need no firearms: They can throw spears faster, further, and more accurately.

They are the Caleshan, and they are rightly feared by the denizens of the nexus, where many gods do not dare tread.

From what I can gather:

They are faster than most vehicles

They are nearly invincible

They can throw spears faster then bullets

Their military appears to be your usual contemporary experienced forces. If you attack them, can you withstand their resistance, in addition to that of their multitude of allies?

[The Caleshan Valkyrie]

Heh... a fleet called Facts and Logic. Double the embarrassment for a commander who loses a battle both militarily and due to poor argumentation!
