No, nevermind.

Is anybody else interested in a standardized tank?

by **Corindia** » Wed Jun 27, 2018 1:57 pm

Now, if it's any consolation, I'd be happy to standardize on some sort of Stryker or Boxer like APC, I think the one I'm rolling now is like 40 or 50 years old

The Joint Bomber Program is done. Hussar is a tentative name, if you don't like it, please propose a new name.

by **Corindia** » Sun Jul 01, 2018 8:50 am

Wow! Looks great! And Hussar works for me

Coming soon, STANAGS for light vehicle armor and Active Protection Systems.

Hey guys, how onerous does this look? It doesn't really mention subordinating anything to a central command but I think it's weird that there's any military stuff in there at all. Was thinking of joining but the military bits are dissuading me.

If I recall correctly this concept was "a southern seas version of MSTO". And I do recall correctly because that's a direct quote. I'd say it's pretty much exclusive with the MSTO, and isn't composed of long standing nations anyway. I'd ignore it unless they actually do something with it.

That's what I was thinking. If it was exclusively some sort of economic or freedom of movement thing then I might at least look into it to boost Southern Sea RP, but I don't think that's how it'll turn out. It's a shame because this is like the third time some sort of promising Southern Sea org has veered into military business and made itself untenable.

Tail options.

Original is at the top. Personally, I like the bottom one. I'll develop that one more.

hey mik, do you have any real life sources of inspiration for the bent pelikan tail you have on the second bomber?

by **Miklania** » Mon Aug 06, 2018 2:36 pm

Can't say that I do.

hmm.
I was thinking of using that sort of design for one of the medium sized tilt-rotors, might have to look on deviantart for an example

by **Corindia** » Mon Aug 06, 2018 7:58 pm

@Miklania mostly but also worth reviewing by the rest of the 'TO
its tentative name is the loadlord 4000

I'm redesigning Stormkeeper again.

by **Polar Svalbard** » Mon Aug 13, 2018 9:31 pm

Mein goodness.

Nonetheless once I get the full motivation to NS again I need to redesign the Svalbardian military. Mostly in regards to the ground forces.

by **Miklania** » Mon Aug 13, 2018 9:58 pm

I'm going to make it smaller and carry more of it's own weapons.

Like this beastly point defense launcher.

by **Corindia** » Tue Aug 14, 2018 8:21 am

ooh, very good

by **Miklania** » Wed Aug 15, 2018 12:14 pm

For the moment there's this.

Do you have copies of the Hussar in individual templates for each nation, Mik?

Progress Report

by **Miklania** » Sat Sep 01, 2018 12:38 pm

So, to get small arms out of the way, there are four basic types that we can agree to standardize on for the basic rifle/light machine gun role.

Conventional Brass Case: Low risk, highest weight

Conventional Plastic Case: Moderate risk, less weight, less cost, technical challenges

Cased Telescoped Ammunition (CTA): Moderate risk, less weight, less cost

Caseless: High risk, lowest weight, technical challenges

Let's start by voting for a case option.

I vote for CTA, since it has been successfully demonstrated in both the ACR and LSAT programs in the real world, and provides important weight advantages over conventional ammunition.
