Detailed Information

Fighters

Fighters operated by the First and Fourth Wings of the Air Force differ due to variation in operation parameters. The First Wing is tasked with Air Superiority and Interception, and operates 2 Squadrons of F811 Finback Interceptors and 3 Squadrons of SU-27 Flankers (20 Aircraft to a Squadron.) The Fourth Wing is tasked with ground support and operates the older Q5 Fantan Attack Fighters.

Bombers

The Second Wing operates Bomber Aircraft and is tasked with target saturation and long-range support. The Second Wing operates two Squadrons of H-6H Air-to-Surface Missile Bombers for long-range ground support and two Squadrons of standard H6 Bombers for target saturation. The Wing also operates one Squadron of H6-X Anti-Ship Missile Carriers that allow Chrisstan to extend some limited firepower against naval vessels into the Gulf of Tonkin despite not having a coastline, although this would require interdiction of Vietnamese Airspace.

Transport

The Third Wing operates closely with the Army as a method of force transportation. The Wing operates three Squadrons of IL-76 Military Transports for medium-range, large bulk transport. For shorter range, there are two Squadrons of the venerable Y5 light utility/transport biplane, used for light transport, pilot training and squad infiltration missions.

Independent Overview of the Chrisstan Armed Forces

The Chrisstan Armed Forces suffers from what many East Asian nations suffer; older equipment and a lack of supplies. The T-62, whilst being a versatile and all-round medium battle tank, would struggle against newer Battle Tanks with better weapons and armour. The Air Force fares better, having several Squadrons of SU-27 Flankers. However, most of the other aircraft operated are out-dated and has been mostly retired by other nations since the 1980s.

The supply situation is a dire problem. A lack of maintenance equipment, ammunition, fuel and useable rations coupled with troublesome terrain for supply vehicles means that the Armed Forces are limited to defensive or very short-term offensive operations. Current independent analysis of the amount of supplies and estimated journey times of supply chains predicts that a defensive war with constant fighting would last approximately four to six weeks before supplies would be exhausted. Offensive operations, depending on the distances involved and the severity of fighting, could last anywhere from two to three weeks, although shortages and delays would be suffered within a matter of days.
