Just an FYI I operate out of Incirlik but I don't think you're taking that part. The Empire would be willing to lend a hand perhaps.

If you want some backstory it was all controlled by the United Federation of Eurasia, along with the rest of the Middle East and Central Asia. They were a Parliamentary Democracy and secular. Capital was Ankara. Very close allies with the Empire.

[Layarteb]

Yeah I just blew up a satellite over the Pacific.

I wouldn't mind some help, but not until we invade our part of turkey.

[Layarteb]

Alright just give me a head's up when you need.



Here's the ORBAT.

[Arnhelm]

Yeah I just blew up a satellite over the Pacific.

Damn. I'm thinking this is going to turn into a dick-waving competition.

[Layarteb]

We aren't really comparing military hardware to military hardware it's more like a game of Battle Chess.

Total: 42,140

That is the number of my military personal. And we do not have a national guard, it's not needed.

Let me fix that, I forgot that the air force and navy need communications and medical people, and a few armed guards.

And mechanics, engineers, painters, deck hands, etc. An airbase alone may have up to 4,000 or 5,000 personnel attached to it in total if it's a big airbase.

Now the problem is fixed

By the way Layarteb, you can come in with right now if you want. I've just started the attack on South Ossetia.

In fact, anyone can join in either for or against me (although they'll have to recognize that I'm going to win).

[Layarteb]

You know why is my cable bill going up again? I do believe Monday I will be having a conversation with Cablevision. This is ridiculous. Why is it that customers of 4+ years get screwed but people coming in brand new reap the benefits we ought to be getting and thanks to NYC fail, I can't even get Time Warner. At least if Time Warner could compete with Cablevision then I'd see something. I could go through all the hassle of switching to Verizon though, that ought to save me some bucks.

I suggest you look into which parts of Turkey are claimed bu Sibirska.

[Sibirska]

I only claim a small part of Turkey.

[Achesia]

Hey sorry for not being able to post anything today Riverea, but I should be able to do something tomorrow.

[Sibirska]

I'm actually going to change my name to the Republic of Georgia.

[Bavin]

This may seem like a random question, but what's the status on Siberia?

I looked into your small arms inventory and I feel that this will be a large logistical nightmare. The firearms you have chosen vary over a broad range of calibers which would make it very difficult to supply your troops. Below I made it easier for you to see for yourself what I mean, they can be categorized in groups by which they have the same cartridge.

Assault Rifles:

AKS-74U - 5.45x39mm NATO

M4 Carbine - 5.56x45mm NATO
Tavor Tar-21 - 5.56x45mm NATO
H&K G-36 - 5.56x45mm NATO

Machine Guns:

PK - 7.62x54mm NATO

IMI Negev - 5.56x45mm NATO

NSV - 12.7x108mm (This can stay as the 50 cal. round is most common among all armies of the world)

You would be better off classifying your small arms arsenal by staying with Eastern or Western weapons, a mix of the two can turn out to be a lot of work and manpower in producing multiple calibres. When you researching to build a military, this is one vital factor you must adopt when choosing your firearms. Hope this helps.

[Sibirska]

Oh i knew that, and I was actually going to post a tread (when I'm done with my intro.) about procuring more eastern weapons (russian style) cause my soldiers are better trained in soviet and other eastern styled weapons. the Serbian company Zastava would be a company which I would consider.

Warsaw Pact type calibers are not NATO calibers, as they were developed and originally used by the nations of the Warsaw Pact, which you'll remember (unless you're too young to have had history in school yet or you simply suck in history) was created in 1955 by the Soviet Union as a reaction to the Western Allies' establishment of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in 1949. There are quite a bit of wrong info in your post, so I'll fix it for you right away and keep it here for reference.

WARSAW PACT
- 5.45x39mm Russian
- 7.62x39mm Soviet
- 7.62x54mmR Soviet
- 12.7x108mm Soviet
- 14.5x115mm

NATO
- 5.56x45mm NATO
- 7.62x51mm NATO
- 12.7x99mm NATO

The 12.7mm caliber were used by both NATO and the Soviets, but they are not interchangable due to the larger Russian bullet and propellant charge, which would cause the barrel to blow if you were to try to fire one from say a M2 heavy machine gun. That is, if you could even get the bloody thing to fit, which you can't due to the 12.7x108mm being almost a full centimeter longer than the 12.7x99mm, and thus too big to get into the mechanism of a x99-operating weapon.

Your main issue with the many different types of rounds causing logistical nightmares is quite valid though, and I second that sentiment completely.

Additionally, you have WAY too few support personnel in the Air Force. Keep in mind that if you expect to have a half-way decent Air Force that can operate its aircraft, you need to have enough maintenance personnel to keep the aircraft going. Most fighters require between 15-20 personnel per aircraft to get this done, and many times that as the aircraft get bigger and more complicated. For instance, a AWACS type aircraft require over a hundred maintenance personnel per one aircraft in order to keep it operational and in optimal condition. A transport such as the C-130 require 40+ personnel per aircraft. This is in addition to the base personnel, which you need in order to keep an airbase operational, and include among other things air traffic controllers, engineers, security personnel, air defence personnel, logistical support personnel, food service personnel, clerks, medical personnel, et cetera. Granted, for a small country like Georgia you're probably not going to have much more than one to three airbases, but the point still stands.

Similar for the Navy. You need personnel on shore in order to maintain your ships when they're in port (between 40-80% of their lifetime, depending on how active your Navy is and how large your operations budget for the Navy is - fuel is expensive).
