Roles:

Hurtian Marine Corps
These units are generally act as a policing unit, but has a secondary duty to provide the main spearhead in an amphibious operation.

Hurian Marine Raiders
These units are primarily used as pathfinders or frogmen for main offensives, as well as training of induginous militaries, they have little or no provisions for acting as a policing unit.

Hurtian Army
Though not strictly special forces, these highly trained and motivated troops are trained extensively as a rapid reaction force.

Hurtful Outcomes Mercenaries and other PMCs
Nothing overly special with their training, these 'soldiers' make up the bulk of the Hutrian military. Sometimes these forces are used to provide assistance to nations that otherwise would resualt in a nuclear confrontation against the Hurtians.

Central Hurtian Intellegence (And security) Agency, CHIA or CHISA, depending on year.
This group is shrouded in secrecy, and is the unit responsiable for maintaining order within the borders while keeping tabs on nations worldwide.

ooc: your military seems rather... well actually more like extremely small for a nation of your size. Your numbers of vehicles in service is incredibly low as well as your troop numbers. Is it just something that doesnt concern you?

And they're all highly trained and well equipped, and since PROHT actually has a grasp of tactics.. he can probably defeat an enemy 5x the size with this.

No, its a dig on most of II. I haven't seen your rp so I couldn't comment.

You mean that lil 'battle plan' I have for invading DMG?
And then there was that time I turned Blackhelm's shore defenses against himself...

Oh, right, air force numbers are a bit off...
It consists of something around 1240 fixed-wing jet planes in the Army.
Which is admitedly a very few.
I could stand to expand by about x5...
Adding 500 Su-34s and about 5,000 Mi-17s whould be enough hopefully.

And how is over 1730 divisions not a whole lot? Considering at least 150 divisions/~3 million troops are able to deploy within 168 hours of notification?

Even though I've never made deployments of over 100 divisions.

So I'm not overly concerned...
