I never have created any military for myself. I say I do have one, but yet I don't designate how many ships I have - what ships they are, what my planes are and how many. All that fun stuff. I'm not big on military knowledge.

So, what do you all think would be a good military for my nation? I got 1.5 billion people, a thriving economy, and spend about 8% on defense.

Your mission: I need naval force, air force, ground force. Ships, tanks, planes, artillery, guns, the whole nine yards. I never got a list going, so maybe I'll start now. What class of anything should I have, and how many?

Do you prefer Western, Eastern, or Asian tech? (or some other type?) If you prefer Western tech then I can help you out with a navy, and naval aviation, but I don't know much about ground forces.

Do you lean left or right politically? I have a good storefront of American Tech.

Western Tech.

Do you lean left or right politically? I have a good storefront of American Tech.

I'm moderate-leaning-right. I tend to go towards moralistic perfection, but allow personal freedoms after that.
