Freedom Country today announced the existance of a team known only as the 'Spirits', a crack team of troops known only to the most senior few in FC's military. This team was announced to the world as the USDT Team, or the Urban Siege, Demolition and Takedown Squad.

As the name suggests, they specialise in Urban combat, in Close Quarters conditions. They are an air based team, using Helicopters and Aircraft to reach their destinations. They can take, hold and demolish a position, after landing from their aerial mounts.

Their mission profile usually involves this:

Taking off in helicopters, with air cover in the form of Helicopters and/or a MA-103 Gunship.
Land on designated target or in target area.
Take down and clear target area, using air cover.
Leave via helicopter in secure are (secured by Gunship)

Designed to not be afraid of getting into firefights, and known for their bravery and skill, these are a select few of FC's fittest Soldiers. Trained to eliminate all opposition in a firefight, before disappearing into the background. This is how they earned their name: The 'Spirits'

All they leave is a trail of dead bodies.

They are given unique privelages, such as advanced air cover. 1 group of 6 soldiers is often known to have massive air cover, several gunships and helicopters. This allows them to rain fir on the opposition.

-----SOAW-----

The Special Forces Air Wing, or SOAW is made up of FC's best pilots, in the best helicopters in the world. Capable of flying into tiny spaces, fly through intense fre and devestate ground forces with air strikes, the SOAW is FC's best pilots. Capable of flying a heavily damaged helicopter, they have tiny losses. Only 1 Helicopter has been shot down in combat. (A SAM to the Cockpit :wink: )

These combinations of forces, tighlt packed, trained to the extreme and taught in the arts of urban combat has just been released to the world. They are truly Freedom Countries best.

-----HHR Team------

Known as the HRR Team, 'The Ghosts' or the Hard-Hit and Run Team, these guys mean and do business. A top fighter jet team, they fly the worlds most advanced jets, in the most high priority mission sin the world.

These guys make up a group of 24 Aircraft, and are FC's best pilots. They may not be the worlds greatest (they arent super trained, born into the military, ELDER's (well done Raysia 8) ) esque pilots), but they are damn good. They cover a 250km sector of FC's air defense, and are set on the most high priority missions.

Also trained in the art of survival, in case they get shot down and are forced to eject (these guys run some damn high priority missions. And after all, even the worlds best pilots get shot down.), and go through 1 year of training for that. Most are veterans of several wargames, or even wars. These guys are also connected to the UDT and SOAW.

May I suggest that once the Coldorran Special Forces are done with their current objective we run a wargame? :wink:

Yah.

But be warned:

A) These guys are mean and tough
B) Experts in uran combat (3 battles with MILES every day)
C) Be warned, broken noses are possible :wink:

No other thoughts?

Suggestions?

I woulda thought something would happen. Maybe even an RP....

Very good! Sounds like alot of our Spec-Ops teams, cept ours downsound of the same quality... except of couse the survivalist corps...

They Fight in all terrain and conditions, armed with a specialized Beita Spetznaz AK-47, they fight for their ammunition, and they supply themselves living off the terrain. We don't allow them in Wargames cause they tend to kill people for more ammo... and they start alotta physical fights that they ALWAYS win. Dah well. But your Spec-Ops team sounds amazing, we'd work beside them any day.

Thankyou.

These guys tend to BRING their ammo :wink:

Any more opininions?

Any more?

Training proposals?

RP's?

Alpha Special Paratroops against USDT members. Wargame.

Can SS Honor Guard join in?

SS Men, these are the guys deployed to your nation. Okay?

And DT, only if its urban :wink:

You die!!!

Okay

Alpha troops are trained for urban combat....

Same here.

How can paratroops be trained for urban?>

Well these guys are airborne, so....

They use Mi-35M heavy gunships.

Anyway, theyre trained mainly for hostage rescue, but urban combat is fine for em also.

*City of Freedom is Freedom Country, in case you didnt know*

My guys use either:

The MAH-6 Gunship (as compact and maneuverable as the AH-6)
It can carry 4 on benches, land in a small courtyard (i.e. 14 x 14m)
and still carry full munitions (possible 24 ATGM's).

The MAH-1 cargo helicopter (similar to the Z-9 and KA-60). Heavy duty, possible for fast ropes, quick landing and air support with twin miniguns. Possible 8 ATGM's.

The CH-47K 'Ares' (Large, like the chinook, but with huge teeth. 2 M-134 Minigun son each side, a single Minigun out the back, 8 ATGM's on pilons on either side. Also, FLIR, Chaffs, decoys, can soak up 30mm hits, and still land on your average high street.

The EA-80 Cargo plane. Can fly over the target, and allow the guys to paradrop onto the target, on in its area. Carries several defensive measures.

The MA-312 Overlord Gunship.

With 2 30mm guns, 1 40mm one, an 155mm Howitzer and a rear facing 105mm gun, it is bristling with firepower. Rains death and destruction, providing awesome air support.

Still want a fight?

No more comments?

We took An-225

And crammed it full of weapons- Gsh-6-23U ground attack cannons, 152mm howitzers, etc. Wanna fight :twisted:

Its not that maneuverable, not all that accurate, and cant fly in a CLOSE circle around the target area. This means CONSTANT air cover.

Also, the MAH-1 (KA-60E's in disquise (sp?)) can provide excellent air cover with its M134 miniguns, and the MAH-6 attack helo is damn versatile, and maneuverable.

What it loses from the Mi-35M, it makes up in maneuverability.

Have fun trying to outrun Igla anti air missiles :roll:

Try anti missile missiles, flares, chaffs, ECM, EMP, jammers, anti missile bomblets, HUGE armor amounts.....

Try anti missile missiles, flares, chaffs, ECM, EMP, jammers, anti missile bomblets, HUGE armor amounts.....
Yes thats right, huge armor amounts, tiny size, huge agility.

Chaff? Useless (its a heat seeking missile) Small size? It can engage cruise missiles HUGE armor: Doesnt work with small size dummy ECM: Ooh, terrifying Flares? Igla-S can hit targets protected by countermeasures Anti missle bomblets? Ooh scary 10% chance of hitting

They detonate in a powder BEHIND the aircraft. So, more of a chance if the thing is behind of course.

And that An-225 is a fatter target than mine :wink:

You must remember people... this thing is meant for carrying a 100+ ton space shuttle... it's not carrying a space shuttle, so this thing could go pretty fact.

Yeh, but that huge bul doesnt do it any favours.

And its designed to carry huge weights, not flirt over a battlefield.
