DO you dare me to do it?
You just need to pay for the insurance of the tank and the crew.

I use VTOL jets that can carry XR-72s, which weigh about 2-3x more than a Modern MBT

To explain what just happened,
in order to fire this gun, the carriers need to be moving at full speed. If they are not, the carrier will tip over, and immediately sink.
I'm some 17 year old psuedo-libertarian who leans to the left in social terms, is fiercly right economically, and centrist in foriegn policy. Unapologetically Pro-American, Pro-NATO, even if we do fuck up (a lot). If you can find real sources that disagree with me I will change my opinion. Call me IHOP cause I'm always flipping.

Actually, XR-72s are 467 Tonnes.


I can carry ten in a VTOL, so you have about 4,670 tonnes of room xP.

Oh I am sure you have stuff that can carry them.

But we still need a runway then... something that heavy can't do a vertical take off/land on a beach

I suggest we take Zarco before we land the really heavy stuff.

Ok. But what about to actually drop off the troops.

I'm not letting you guys paradrop tanks out of my freaking VTOLs.

I already have XR-72s onland, I have 100 of them on the Southern Front. I take it that you want me to advance on Zarco with you guys?

You don't have to. Its just the nearest potential airbase I could think of.

But then you would have to drive up to the Front to attack.

I imagine its likely quite impractical trying to get a tank from a carrier main deck to one of those.

You can try of course, but pay RVN the insurance first :p

Let me look on the map really quick.

If its not too far in their territory, I'm going to drop some Spec Ops in.

Its more I don't think the lifts were designed for that weight, and there isn't really a practical loading bay on the side for them to just drop off onto the craft (usually they are loaded on the landing stuff inside the ship anyway, something a carrier doesn't have)

When we take Zarco, I will let you guys use my VTOLS to land on that airfield.
