OCC: From where I left off...
The Marines, Who would be the first in, boarded their transports. They First Wave, which would consist of no less than 100,000 Marines, countinued towards the shore. Meanwhile, an additional 10,000 Missiles flew over their heads. 10,000 Army paratroopers prepare to be dropped when needed. The ships in the fleet started pinpoint targeting, shooting machine gun nests and the like. The Eighteen inch guns countinued to hit the beach. Rods of god fell from the sky, striking a few underground command posts. As they neared the beach, the AAV's fired their twin 20mm guns, and the men prepared to meet their fate.

Hold it. Your ships are going to have to fight their way in if they are in canon range. Where are you, Redemption?

OCC: meh, No Im attack your Capitol...
I thought I was in range!

You want a map of the way in?

that would be helpful

If you ever get to the city I'll make that map to:D

OKay, Ill aim for that beach inside the little cove thingy in between where they stick out

Remember, your fleet will be in the battle in the main thread, far away from here. I have a carrier group in there, and have blocked it off with many, many sunken barges.

OCC: Okay lets try it another way, whats the easiest way? since you dont have forces marked on that map?

Any way but the channel. O yea, and at the two points, there are massive railguns batteries. I'm calling it a night, see ya in the morning.

Okay, Ill assualt someplace along there, my pervious 15,000 missiles will hit there, sleep well.

OOC: Blackhelm, 3rd time I'm mentioning this: I've been shelling the living shit out of your coast line with my Naval guns. 12 Lord Class Heavy Battleships are using all of their main guns to fire on your AA capabilities.

Please respond mate :)

You need to get past the naval battle, which at the moment I think I may loose, to get within shelling range.

There are airships flying around too.

Lol, some Mod got mad at our grammer! Anyway, Black, Now can I rp me troops landing?

IC:


Cruisers readied their AA guns to down any Blackhelm, or Pudite aircraft in the area, while Destroyers and Submarines came ever closer to their enemies.

A Wanderjarian Submarine at periscope depth eyed a Blackhelm warship.


"Warship, distance close! Moving away!" The ships Radar operator said.

"Excellent. Mr. Baumer, get a firing solution!"


EDIT: Blackhelm, your picture doesn't work :(
"Aye sir!" Then the Weapons officer went to work drawing up a firing solution and using the computer to analyze it. "Solution ready!"

The Captain looked through his periscope, and eyed the ship. "Fire tubes one through three."

The 1st Mate nodded. Then he shouted, "One through Three!"

Three torpedoes launched from the firing tubes, spreading out so that if the ship noticed the torpedoes, if it sped up it would be hit, and if it maintained its current course it would be hit. There would be no escape.


The surface fleet would begin pounding away at the Blackhelm fleet shortly. All they needed to do was get themselves into proper position. Once there, the hell of the Wanderjarian Kriegsmarine would be shown yet again to the fleets of Blackhelm.

Aircraft from the WSS von Bismarck took off, and began to target enemy aircraft for beyond visual range assaults.

Admiral Reinhardt smirked. "Mates," he said calmly to his crew. "Let us remind them that Wanderjar rules the waves."

-BUMP-
The Dog loved the cat of the Cathouse.

EDIT: Blackhelm, your picture doesn't work :(


Blasphemy!, try it again here, eh?

OCC: Well, on with it!

The massive Armada of Ships moved in close to the enemy armada preparing for War. 8,000 Planes lifted into the air, 130 torpedos were relased, and 500 Anti-shipping missiles were thrown aloft. Finally massive 18 inch guns fired.

For the sake of that battle, lets leave the naval fighting in the main thread. It will be easier for both of us.

OCC: Have it your way! Burger King!

LOL. Well, feel free to bring in the landers though.

OCC: Really w00t! After I kick your Navies butt I will

The Marines quickly got out of their AAv's covered by pinpoint guns, 20mm cannons, and 8,000 planes, they quickly spread out and found cover. They waited for the attack

...what the fuck, RP a proper landing please. Your whole army wont come up at once, especially with the defenses I have. To start, your men are likely going to have to swim about 50 yards to shore. I have concrete blocks scattered all over the shore to stop your landers from hitting the bech directly. They all have real sharp things sticking out so you are gunna get cut. There are also these things that look like lifeguard chairs with machine guns in the water to cut down the men swimming.

There is no way I could know witout you telling me, and this isn't my whole army, just barely 9,000 Marines have made it to shore.

" Move! Move! Move! Goddamnit! I said MOVE!" First Sergeant James K. Johnson yelled.
" COME ON! You wanna live FOREVER?"
The Marines jumped out of the AAV's.
Private Jamenson, who Johnson had formed a good relationship with, was cut to ribbons as he jumped out.
Red sprayed on Johnson, and the blue ocean was covered in Blood. Desperte men thre everything but their rifles away.
Another man just in front of Johnson, got his brain blown out. 40 meters to go.

I said it in the main post in like my first post. But I am sorry about the way I acted, I was just angry at Tocrowkia. Please, forgive me.

IC:

The wooden towers in the water opened up with a devastating hail from the .50 cal machine guns on them. Behind them, the army waited for the TPF forces to be able to stand before they would fire. For the men on the towers, it would be like shooting fish in a barrel, as the men would find it incredibly difficult to fire while swimming, and many would also find their guns to fail when they hit shore, as their weapon will be waterlogged.

There were 500 tower positions, completely exposed (as i said, it looks like a life guard chair in the water) each with a machine gunner and a loader.

The Marines continued to swim, but alreday neraly a thousand were down.
Howver 5 inch railguns fired at them and so did the 20 mills and the planes

OCC: Sorry for the crappy post, going to bed, try to compromise with tok, even if its unfair. Then we can move on...

The sea was red with blood. The beach was burning from so many fires. The horrinble, hig-pitched screams of men filled the air. As Johnson continued to swim he was more of in shock...
"Mother...Mother. Mo-" A young Marine said, as his eyes rolled into the back of his head.
As Johnson swam futurthur, a man was leaning over someone, saying a prayer. He crumpled to the ground. Only twenty more meters.... Johnson thought.

"They are getting slaughtred General."
" I know!"
"Casualties are at 3,000!"
"okay okay, send another 5,000 missiles!"

AAD-1 balloons over head thinned down the missiles to half of their original number. Firestorm launchers on the ground reduced it to less than a hundred incoming missiles. The hundred missiles smashed down upon an artillery group, smashing twenty BM-21's on the coast. One hundred men holding the coast were also killed.

In the water, the TPF soldiers were getting dangerously close to the little towers in the water. Tiny underwater mines began detonating as the enemy soldiers neared them. Incinerateur rapid fire artillery began shelling out shell after shell as it fired in a revolver like method. The 155mm shells began coming down on the transports as they tried to unload more men, raining down upon them in a rapid succession. This would be a bad day for The Peoples Freedom indeed.

A corporal holding position on the beach watched the carnage in the water. Thousands of bodies floated around, further impeding the enemy advance. Body after bloody body washed up along shore, their mangled forms going in and out with the tide. He wanted to vomit. The waves were crashing hard around the towers. With each wave, men both living and dead were sent smashing into the concrete blocks, crushing their bones and slicing them on the razor wire covering the blocks. The gray, cloud filled sky allowed no sun through. It was a nightmare for the corporal. His sergeant walked over to him and grabbed his shoulder. "Redfist, you okay" the sergeant asked. "Yea yea, I'm fine, thanks sarge".

Another volley of missiles were launched, 5,000 in all, and F-29's strafed enemy postions. Naval Bombardment continued.

Johnson was killed. He got under the water, .50 bullets slashing into the waves, as he emerged, his stocmach was cut open, causing his insides to fall out. The first Force Recon troops reached the beach. They began to look for cover.

How many missiles do you have to shoot at me?

Over 150,000. And I haven't resupllied yet

What kind of missiles are you using?

((OOC: Sorry to but in, but Blackhelm, did you ever accept my deal about erasing the nuke attack so I can land my forces the usual way?))

I call them Sea Hammers They have twice the range and payload of a standard tomahawk and some have Fuel Air warheads.

And you can afford this many missiles, a huge fleet, and an immense army how? Each missile is going to be costing likely a million dollars. Those missiles alone will be costing you a chunk of your defense budget. Just from an economic point of view, these spams are not good. From a military point of view, you are using all of your weapons too early. Just trying to help ya out so you don't act so careless with the missiles ;)

OCC: Thanks, but with a overall defense budget of nearly 20 trillion dollars, I think I am fine

OCC: Thanks, but with a overall defense budget of nearly 20 trillion dollars, I think I am fine

Last thing, what are they being fired from?

one hundred Aresenal ships

bumpage

OOC: Your cannons can not reach me as they are still in a naval battle.

IC:

As the missiles passed over the Confederate/Griffincrest fleet, the numerous anti-missile systems, coupled with the AAD-1's cut down the number of missiles to 1,000. Out of these 1,000 missiles, only 200 landed, thanks to the Firestorms. A few hundred men were killed or wounded and brought rearward, replaced with new men.

Four GNF stealth ships crept up on the enemy arsenal ships. From 100 miles out, far beyond likely TPF radar, each ship let loose a Bladerunner torpedo. The saw on the dreaded weapon went immediatly to work, and the twenty torpedoes fired through the water, hungry for TPF steel.

The men who hit shore would be among some of the most unlucky men to ever live. If they were to be able to move five feet past the barbed wire along the surf, hundreds of Claymore and ATG-44 mines would await them. Hundreds, possibly thousands of Browning .50 cal machine guns, coupled with AR-22A3's layed down a devastating literal wall of fire at this First Force Recon men. Redfist jumped as his sergeant yelled for his men to open up. He had never fired a weapon before, outside of training. He never was shot at before. He never killed anyone before, would he be able to do it? These and hundreds of other thoughts crossed his mind. Finally, he pulled the trigger on his Phoenix made AR22A3. Bullets sprayed out. He closed his eyes so that he would not have to see if he hit. Behind him, he could hear the explosions and screams as missiles hit the rear positions. He hoped to God that he would survive.

I feel your getting close to godmodding, as I pulled my fleet out of the main naval battle and only 200 missiles hitting?

How can you get around the naval battle when ships are assaulting your ships, they would be pursued.

OCC: you did not say that and you told me I could start landing ships.

OCC: you did not say that and you told me I could start landing ships.

I did say you could land, I did not say your warships can move. Your warships and you transports are now seperated by about 100 nautical miles.

Well, Im moving them now feel free to pursue.

Okie dokie

IC:

Confederate ships were ordered to pursue any moving TPF warships. As soon as the enemy tried to break away, ten AEGIS missile destroyers, supported by another ten Hyperion airships and five Mako bombers gave chase. Several dozen Tomahawk missiles filled the sky, as the same amount of torpedoes also filled the sea. The Mako's all began dropping their 1000 pound JDAM's upon the enemy picket. Hyperions let loose their full volley as well, launching over 100 Harpoon, Exocet, and and Tomahawk missiles. As well, each Hyperion opened up with its own 105mm howitzer. The advantage of being above the enemy fleet as well as having several thousand countermeasures in the group would soon be seen.

One hundred miles behind the TPF fleet, well into international waters, three stealth ships targeted the TPF arsenal ships with their Bladerunner torpedoes. Each vessel loosed ten torpedoes in groups of two, and after the fifth set they sped away, dissapearing over the horizon. Now thirty incredibly fast, highly accurate spinning blades of death raced through the water, two aimed at each arsenal ship that was targeted.

On shore, body after body continued to wash up on shore or simply smash up against the concrete blocks or wooden towers. Redfist was firing randomly at any signs of movement on the shoreline when suddenly he jumped. A sound came from off behind him. The Confederate HY-2 Seersucker missiles, all fifteen of them, began to open up at the defenseless TPF transports that were continually coming in to unload. Redfist could not help but cheer as he saw these weapons of war soar over head, finally this time back at the enemy fleet.

The Tomahawks were soon decteced and intercepted bu CWIS and other missiles. Still, a few go througe damaging a battleship and kill a dozen sailors and one Marine. The Torpedos were spotted, and they two were intercepted, but one destroyer and a heavy cruiser sank. The Arsenal ships spotted theirs, and with the help of other ships destroyed all but four, which sank two. At the same time, CAP patrol aircraft attacked the enemy warplanes.

Back at the shore, The first tanks began coming ashore, Also, the Marines were able to establish a few strongpoints, but they were pinned down. Marines contunued to snipe enemy machine gunners, but they also used Anvils and some flamethowers to grusome effect. Soon, combined with the 4,000 airplanes, they could punch a hole.

How have you landed tanks? It is going to be incredibly difficult to land men, much less tanks on my shore. Also, you should be in the tens of thousands of casualties now, as your hurried assault on my beach will likely be very very costly in lives.

OCC: I dont care, I'm landing my damn tanks, your taking WAY too few deaths from the MASSIVE amounts of missiles, there SHOULD be a massive gaping hole in your defenses.

OCC: I dont care, I'm landing my damn tanks, your taking WAY too few deaths from the MASSIVE amounts of missiles, there SHOULD be a massive gaping hole in your defenses.

If you land those tanks, I will simply ignore them until you can actually land them. You have 50 meters were your transports cannot go, and those tanks cannot drive. I planned my defense long ago when Sochatopia tried to invade me in May, and have been improving it since. Find a way to land those tanks, dont just say they are there.

Pertaining to the missiles, you are aware that a missile explodes right? If I blow one up, the ones around it explode as well. Hardly any would get through at all, be glad I even took casualties.

they were pretty spread out dude not all flying one foot apart. And these tanks are amphbious so yes they can swim up to the shore. And what about my 4,000 airplanes that are pounding your postions?

The missiles are being fired from the same group of ships, they cant be too spread out. And what kind of tanks are you using/how is it amphibious?
Also, where are you launching 4,000 planes and of what make are they?

Im using a tank of my own design and they are designed to be used as a boat as well, in WWII the Allies did it with Shermans, we do it now with AAAVS. My 4,000 Planes are a mix of types but about 2,750 or so are F-29 Dedicated Fighter-Bombers and they are being launched from my ships, and are being reloaded from my carriers and refuled by carrier and Air.

Being amphibious does not make them able to get through concrete. I would also like stats on these tanks, as well as a breakdown of the entire force you have commited to destroying me.

I already gave you a breakdown, as for the stats, what exactly do you need?

I already gave you a breakdown, as for the stats, what exactly do you need?

Gun, armor, crew, speed, weight

And where is that breakdown that you said you gave?

It was in the orginal thread.

Length: 8.8 m with gun forward Width: 3.9 m Height: 3.4 m
Weight: 55,700 kg
Weapons: 105 ETC gun, 30 mm Airburst autocannon, one 40mm grenade launcher, one 15.5mm machine gun
RHA Values:
Front: 900 mm
Sides: 500 mm
Rear: 300 mm
Top:: 220 mm
Complement: Three (commander, driver, and gunner)
Propulsion: one BP 2,900 hp Gasoline-Electric Hybrid
Speed: 90mph (road) 60mph (battlefield) 10 knots (Water)
Price: $10 million

I have no idea what any of the things in that breakdown are. You wrote a bunch of things, and repeated it over and over.

And what is the total number of men in all forms, logistics, army, airforce, navy, involved here?

OCC: In and around 8.5 million

OCC: In and around 8.5 million

Roughly 8.5 million, interesting...all well armed and well trained I assume. Plus a hundred and fifty thousand high tech missiles. Plus a truly massive fleet. Plus four thousand high tech planes. Hm...TPF, your homeland is looking mighty good for Beiraq or Achmara to sink their teeth into at a TG, seeing as you cannot possibly afford to also keep a very large army back home too.

Your Welcome to try but their populations are too small.
So, are you going to take deaths from my planes

Your Welcome to try but their populations are too small.
So, are you going to take deaths from my planes

How many men are defending your homeland?

OOC: Someone seems to have forgoten Blackhelm's one realy substantial ally...

The High Command, such as it was, had reached a decision - so that Blackhelm might last a little longer, they are going to open a second (or rather third... or fifth...) front in The People's Freedom.
This front is being opened by Carrier Groups Socrates and Aristotle... which are escorting transports carrying a total of thirty divisions of Undershi Army soldiers (300,000 soldiers) and five divisions of IIS elite soldiers - the 101st, 102nd, 103rd and 104th IIS Mechanized Divisions, and the 106th IIS Mountain Division. (50,000 soldiers).
These units will conduct a massed landing at a lightly defended coastal zone of TPF, with the intent of causing panic and chaos, and hopefully forcing TPF to withdraw some units from Blackhelm.

OOC2: You want a new thread for that?

OOC: TPF, are you there?
ICly:

An additional force has been commited - immediatly prior to the main landings, two divisions of paratroopers will be commited to conduct landings behind enemy lines, in order to disrupt the defenders. These landings will choose as their targets lightly defended small towns - the outskirts of lightly defended small towns - and will take and hold those towns until the main landing force can relieve them.
The converted Golden Eagle heavy bombers carrying the paratroopers will have heavy fighter escorts - another reason for this attack is to force the enemy to deploy some of its fighter assets or let the drops go unopposed. The total number of aircraft commited to this operation are:

- 1,000 converted Golden Eagle heavy bombers

- 250 standard pattern Golden Eagle heavy bombers

- 1,000 Lightning fighters

- 500 Thunderer fighter-bombers

(OOC: Please note that this is not godmodding - the Undershi Empire can affoard to conduct such opperations... although this is three-fifths of my non-IIS paratrooper assets...)

Support for the landings will come in the form of some missile cruise missile fire immediatly before the drops, and also take the form of on-call air strikes from the standard pattern Golden Eagles and the Thunderers.

OOC2: Yes, this is a major operation, but so is the main landing - we are commiting everything we have to our fight alongside Blackhelm - and this is the site of our main attack.

OCC: Sorry, Ive been gone for the last two days, Im back now.
Undershi, even with those forces, I'll slaughter you, but your welcome to try!

As for my troops still stationed at home, I have 20,000,000 Combat troops spread around mutiple service branches.

The Citizens of The Peoples Freedom took Homeland Security very seriously. In fact part of the reason Law Enforcement and Defense took up so much money of the budget was due to the fact of this. Indeed, after the Year Long War and the Ten Years Of Terror, they wanted a very secure homeland. Because of this, Waters around The Peoples Freedom were contsantly monitored. Every ship was to be ID' three hundred miles before reaching TPF Waters. This would allow for a response. In additon, The Peoples Freedom operated a very effective Air Defense. Called TPFADC, they had numerous CAP Patrols daily. Around major bases and population centers, Anti Aircraft enplacements were kept ready and Alert. Thus, When the Undershi fleet was spotted, orders were sent out.

While most of TPF's fleet was fighting GriffinCrest, there was still a sizeable defense Force. Thus, the only current major Defense Fleet was sent into action

6x X-19 Class
3x Atlantis Class Hyper Carrier
2x Conqerer Class Super Carrier
30x Econ Class
30x Ion class
15x Heg Class
6x Petsin Class
20x Squid Class
30x Octopus Class
4x Freedom Class

Bump

OOC: Are you sure you can support that much stuff?

The Undershi fleet, massively supported by elements of the Undershi air force, has begun offensive action against the TPF defensive fleet. The troop ships are hanging back, surrounded by a cordon of destroyers. (The troop ships have light CIWS of their own, but the destroyers are still being sent there to provide additional AA and anti-missile protection).
The first offensive consisted of the 250 standard pattern Golden Eagle heavy bombers, the 500 Thunderer fighter-bombers, 300 additional Thunderer fighter-bombers launched from the fleet carriers and all 1,000 Lightning fighters, supported by volley-fired anti-shipping missiles from the cruisers and destroyers of the fleet.
The Undershi fleet is heavy on missiles, at the expense of conventional artillery, so is going to try to maintain engagement range as something at which artillery will be ineffective.

OOC2: As for your men at home... we can deal with them...

The Undershi military seems fully commited to an invasion of TPF - they are deploying an additional strike force consisting of four Carrier Groups and another 500,000 soldiers in troop ships.
This strike force is coming up behind the main Undershi fleet, and will join the fighting soon enough... while its troop ships hang back and wait for the TPF fleet to be reduced.

The Massive amount of Missiles came zooming towards the TPF fleet. Quickly CWIS's opendend Fire and numerous interceptor missiles shreiked towards the enemy.
Even so, the missiles were able to Damage four ships.
As the enemy aircraft came into range, 1,200 F-29 interceptors came screaming off carriers and dozens of AA Destroyers launched missiles.

It was the Peoples Freedom's turn to Strike back, as 1,000 missiles rocketed off towrads the enemy fleet. Meanwhile, they ships tried to get into artillery range.

Finally, A Carrier Battle Group nearby was called in, and one of the few Naval Home Fleet Carrier Battle Groups was called in.

At the same time, 250 B-52 Naval Attacks Varients took off, loaded with extreamly powerful Anti-shipping missiles. Each one also had a 20 kiloton nuclear warhead in case things get nasty

OOC: Do we have an agreement that use of tactical nukes won't equate with glassing?

Each Golden Eagle heavy bomber carrier a massive number of laser-guided anti-shipping bombs. The Thunderers had a variety of load-outs - of the 800 Thunderers, 200 carried Air-to-Air loadouts, while 200 carried light conventional anti-shipping load-outs... and the other 400 carried tactical nukes.

As the fighting began in ernest, the Undershi fleet began to reverse course, firing as they slowly moved away from the coast - leading the TPF fleet behind them.

Three Thunderers and a single Golden Eagle fell victim to enemy AA fire, while three Undershi ships were damaged by the returning missile fire. Of the ships that were damaged, two were destroyers and one was a cruiser.

As the fighting continued, the Undershi fleet did not let up even slightly in thier missile bombardment of the TPF fleet. The Lightning fighters began engaging the enemy, making the best use they could of the altitude advantage they had over the incoming fighters. As the aerial engagement began to begin in ernest, the Lightnings volley-fired Air-to-Air missiles - 2,000 missiles, all at once, flying in towards the enemy fighters... while the Lightnings that had launched them then broke formation and began engaging targets with their missiles as oppertunity allowed them to do.
The Thunderers with fighter loadouts hung back, protecting the bombers and relying on the Lightnings to keep the enemy interceptors away... although, if any enemy interceptors broke through, they would find themselves facing a nasty suprise in the form of the Thunderer anti-air load-out fighter-bombers... and the light loads of Air-to-Air missiles carrier by the Golden Eagles...

OCC: Tatical nukes under 25 kilotons are allowed without me glassing you. However if you get out of hand with this, you better bet I will.

As the missles shreiked toward the TPF fighters, they responded with dozens of "Glass-breaker" missiles. Even so, 80 F-29's tumbled down.

The F-29's began to close in, firing long-range AA missiles called Thunderbolt II's, they acclerated to mach 7 and were extreamly powerful. 400 of these were launched, as they got in medium range, Thunderbolt I's fired, 800 in all.

The B-52's arrived on scene, unleashing 200 massive Scourge missiles each with a Fuel Air warhead, just four of these could sink a battleship and 10-20 could kill a Super-Dreadnought.

Well over a hundred HY-2's were fired off in the direction of the approaching transports once again. TPF boys were having a tough time hitting shore. Forget about moving inland. The wooden water towers were not yet even fired upon, and continually spit their fire out onto the enemy soldiers swiming their way to shore. The few that actually made it ashore were quickly sliced down by the extraordinary amount of ground fire they were up against.

Amphibious tanks attempted to maneuver into the shore, only to find their path blocked by concrete blocks spread four feet apart in a staggered formation. The Incinerateur rapid fire artillery was originally decided to be called up, but that would also destroy the barriers. Instead, they would let the TPF tanks wallow in their own stupidity while their men were cut down around them.

Well over a hundred HY-2's were fired off in the direction of the approaching transports once again. TPF boys were having a tough time hitting shore. Forget about moving inland. The wooden water towers were not yet even fired upon, and continually spit their fire out onto the enemy soldiers swiming their way to shore. The few that actually made it ashore were quickly sliced down by the extraordinary amount of ground fire they were up against.

Ive been Firing at your Towers.


The fighting continued, but they were making progress.

The tanks, notcing the barriers called up the Navy Frogmen, who began to cut into the barriers.

Do show me where you assaulted the towers

IC:

The frogmen were expected. The blocks had been covered in razor wire, as well as containing a small fragmentation device, and the second man on each tower was told to keep a watch over the barriers as he loaded his ammunition.

OOC:Casualties thus far?

OOC-Let's not throw around n00k threats, but any nuclear attack on Undershi will be considered a nuclear attack on me.

that wasn't a threat he can use them as long as hes not like OMGZ I JUST NOOKED UR FLEET UR DEAD NUB

Finally, towers were taking damage. They had serveed their purpose well, earning a nearly 20 to 1 kill ratio in the opening hour of the invasion. With the towers beginning to fall, Ka-52 assault choppers rose from just behind the trenches to replace them as best they can. The unloaded their chainguns, strafing the concrete blocks, as well as making a run along the surf, then turning back and going back to base. Now, there would be the mines as soon as men were in shallow enough water to stand, and the unmerciful fusilade the enemy would soon encounter.

As the Helichopters appread, the thousnads of F-29's attacked them, as did a few dozen Stingers.

As the first troops hit the mines, they fell back, allowing minesweeprs to come in from the breaks in the concrete. The first tanks also came in, ready to protect the minesweeprs

Problems with post

1) You did not have F-29's here before that were not engaged by balloons. Planes to not teleport to problem zones.

2) Stingers? Your men cant even stand.

3) Put a little effort into your RP

4) Once again, tanks do not cover 50 meters of water in about four seconds, nor do minesweepers.

The balloons form a ring several miles out, and are meant to engage planes before they reach land. Wanderjar, Tocrowkia, and yourself I believe have all encountered them already.

In the Air

The enemy return fire was somewhat effective - 65 of the Lightnings and one of the Golden Eagle heavy bombers were shot down. The remaining fighters are still active, firing their missiles (which are ultra-high velocity seeker missiles like the ones you have mentioned using.)

In the Sea

In the sea, massive ammounts of AA fire was being directed at the B-52s - literally hundreds of missiles were targeting those bombers as they neared the fleet.
Meanwhile, the carriers of the fleet launched their reserve craft - 100 Thunderer fighter-bombers fitted out for anti-aircraft duty.
Needless to say, the missile bombardment of the TPF fleet is continuing as the Undershi fleet continues to withdraw from direct artillery-range fighting with the TPF fleet.

In Space

A signal had been sent to the Undershi military satelites in orbit, from some bunker beneath Undershi City. Now, that signal had its effect - Undershi military satelites began to deploy themselves.
These satelites are equipped with light missiles... which they are going to use to disorganize the TPF military via attacks against its communication satelites, spy satelites and the rest of its orbital infastructure.

OOC: If you find this last bit to be tech-wanking, I've used more complex and higher-tech orbital weapons against people at this tech level before.

In the Air

The B-52's reacted quickly, firing more glass breakers, but sill, 50 went down.
At the same time, the F-29's got in close range an fired their 30mm ETC cannons, followed by short range missiles.
The B-52's launched another volley of 100 Scourge missiles.

At sea
One Destoyer sank, and a battleship was critically damaged. Another Volley of 500 missiles was launched.

OCC: Are these "Light missiles" Rods of God?

OOC: No. They're inventions of my own - think of them as modified anti-missile missiles. I also, needless to say, have other space-based weapons...

In The Air

As the fighter-vs-fighter engagement became more and more chaotic, the Lightnings began to form small groups - not formations - which would act as they had been trained to - they would watch each other's backs, and gang up on any enemy fighters they might encounter. Which they would. Undershi fighter pilots are extremely highly trained, and so are able to fight quite well in small groups. And fight well they did - their rapid-firing air-to-air missiles striking out against enemy targets in rapid succession, the pilots wheeling their fighters away before they see a definite hit or not, circling and weaving like mad men.
Still, even with the high level of training that Undershi pilots endure, some were lost - 27 Lightnings, 13 Thunderers and seven Golden Eagle heavy bombers were downed.

In The Sea

The Undershi fleet is fighting with near fanatical dedication to victory, sending massive clouds of AA missiles and CIWS fire into the air as they fight ferociously to hold off the enemy aircraft... while at the same time sending huge numbers of anti-shipping missiles into the air as well, to strike at the enemy fleet in support of their air craft.
Enemy missiles were meeting their ends at the hands of counter missiles and CIWS fire... but still, some got - two destroyers and one cruiser were destroyed.

In Space

In space, the Undershi military satelites continue to destroy TPF satelites, trying to disrupt enemy communication systems.

And Somewhere Else...

In Undershi City, a decision has been made - long-range conventional balistic missiles will be used against the enemy cities. These missiles will be launched primarily against manufacturing centers - delibrately at times when the workers should be in the factories.
Over the course of the first day, 175 such missiles are being employed. Some of these, about 50 in all, are being programed to "accidentaly" go off course and hit residential neighborhoods.

Note: All of these missiles are equipped with cluster bombs for warheads.

OOC: Yeah. Say hello to Undershi Terror Weapons. Not very effective, but they'll scare the crap out of your civilian populace - hopefully...

Pudite 7th Fighter Air Fleet, Defending Blackhelm, First Shots
The large Pudite airbase was engaged in a deafening maelstrom of noise, klaxons screeching, the rumble of heavy armored vehicles, and the low roar of the thousands of jet engines above and around the center of the Pudite assistance in the Blackhelm homeland.

Very recently the commander of this Pudite expeditionary force, air force Colonel Duka, had received rather disturbing news. In addition to the city fighting in the north and the invasion there, there would be opening a second front, closer to home. Less than two-hundred miles away a few hundred thousand soldiers of the small nation of The People's Freedom were working on establishing a beach-head. This could not be allowed to continue.

Immediately Duka called back all of his air-fighter patrols and grounded and re-supplied all of his attack craft. All in all, he had for himself seven-hundred and fifty advanced Strakhen Sokol air superiority fighters as well as two-hundred and fifty DP-21G ground attack fighters. In addition to this, there was the bomber squadron, with their fifty Barsuk strike bombers and twice that of the smaller F-41A multi-role fighters. In minutes they would be ready.

Duka himself was even now situating himself in his own Strakhen Sokol's cockpit, his advisor and aide, Rabota, was strapping him in. In seconds Duka would lead his Air Fleet into the upper regions of the atmosphere, where they would remain for the duration of the two-hundred miles flight, not very long at all...

They were destined for the People's Freedom beach assault, where they would. Once they arrived, drive them back into the sea. The fifty Barsuk bombers would remain in the highest reaches of their capability, sixty-one thousand feet above he ground, where they would stay as they deposited their thirty-five thousand pound payload of high explosives. This means that, concentrated on the very shoreline of the beach assault operation so as to minimize the possibility of friendly fire, there would be over one-million and seven hundred thousand pounds of high explosive. That would make one hell of an effect...

To protect and escort these powerful bombers there were the eight-hundred and fifty fighters, divided between the two separate varieties. Escorting the bombers through their sixty-one thousand foot bombing run would be the one-hundred F-41A fighters, their tiny, quick frame and powerful vectored thrust engines giving them amazing maneuverability. They would guard their squadron’s bombers with their lives.

Screaming in before these beasts would be one-thousand fighters, coming in at lower levels, some as low as three thousand feet above the ground. They would serve to disrupt enemy ground operations and establish air superiority before the bombers arrived. The two-hundred and fifty ground attack planes would come in the lowest, delivering powerful one-thousand pound cluster munitions, to destroy infantry cohesion. Also mounted on these planes would be smaller five-hundred pound anti-tank guided missiles, to deal with any armored threats, and the two-hundred pound air-to-air missiles to protect themselves. In all, each DP-21G would have four-thousand pounds of cluster bombs, two-thousand pounds of anti-tank missiles, as well as a thousand pounds of air-to-air missiles, and all of that was supplemented by a powerful 30mm automatic cannon.

Flying above these fighters would be the Duka-led Strakhen Sokol attack. These powerful, maneuverable jets would be armed exclusively with air-to-air missiles, save for each fighters single air-to-ground strike missile, a thing of three-hundred and eighty pounds of high-explosive fragmentation warheads. These long-range missiles would be launched nearly as soon as the fighters took to the air, alerting all involved parties of the Dominion's intentions. Other than that, each Strakhen Sokol would be armed with ten two-hundred pound air-to-air missiles, which would serve as the opening volley once the Pudite aircraft closed in. As it was on all Pudite aircraft, they too boasted nose-mounted 30mm cannon, which would be useful in the air, as well as against ground targets.

Colonel Duka shifted his weight back off onto the deepest parts of the seat as his jet roared off he runway, enjoying the few minutes of relaxation before he would be yet again thrown into combat in the name of his Emperor. As he level the aircraft out at ten thousand feet he reached forward of his control stick, flicking up a small red cover, revealing a black switch. He looked ahead of him, reading his 'distance to target area' figure off the small display at the bottom of his cockpit screen. 195 miles, "Perfect..." he whispered as he flipped the switch up. Moments later he heard the mechanical clamps on the missile below him release, shortly followed by the explosion outward of the missile below him, rushing forward of his own plane, destined for the small beach which was now only a few minutes away...

This action was repeated by every Dominion Strakhen Sokol pilot as they took to the air, launching over two-hundred and eighty five thousand pounds of fragmentation high explosive warheads toward the foreigners.

The battle had begun, now it was up to the pilots to finish it...

OCC: Undershi, are you sure you want to launch those ICBM's even if they aren't nuclear?

Bump

Bump
OOC: Don't bump, respond to my air attacks.

The Peoples Freedom prepared for the onslaught. But they were not afraid.

About 3,000 F-29's landend filling up on AA ordance. The ships readied themselves for the planes, loading up.

Wanderjarian Missile Sattelites picked up the launches from Undershi ones. These caused initial panic in the Wanderjarian TACOPS Center, however it was quickly seen that they were anti-missile missiles. However, the Undershi sattelites did have the capability to fire others, and as such, all Wanderjarian missile platforms launched missiles towards their Undershi counterparts.


Meanwhile, the over 100 Wanderjarian Cartagena Class SSNs moved into the TPF area. Undershi shipping was the primary target, and as they broke off into twenty five wolf packs of four SSNs each, they sought out enemy fleets to pick them off, one by one....

Thanks!

Missile after missile continued to scream towards the enemy transports, erupting in bright orange flashes on every ship they hit. Two massive 500mm railguns emplaced on the beach joined into the chaos as well, their thunderous sound signifying another TPF ship that would be sent to the bottom. The Incinerataur cannons now readied to bombard the coast, should the enemy make a miracle advance.

Machine guns raked the shoreline, cutting down hundreds of enemy soldiers. Mines too, erupted, sending bits of shattered young men all over the beach.

In the air over a thousand MiG's, ranging from the old MiG 21's to the up to date MiG 31 Foxhounds, moved in to engage the enemy planes. Over four hundred AAD-1 amti air balloons also targeted the enemy fighters and loosed their own armament, sending hundreds of missiles screaming for their enemy. Finally, the Hyperion airships, twenty in all, moved up. Their imposing figures casting a shadow along the beach. The air battle would soon be over, with Confederate/Pudite forces the victors.

Airspace over Blackhelm, Pudite Air Fighter Air Fleet, Colonel Duka's Attack
Soaring over the countryside of a foreign nation at speeds easily exceeding twice, even three times the speed of sound, Colonel Duka chuckled with pleasure as he received a new string of radar data, springing itself up onto his screen in the base of his cockpit glass...

"So... the foreign planes have... grounded themselves?"

Duka almost leapt with pleasure, except he was in a cramped airplane, so that would have been hard... "They must think we're a little farther away than we really are..."

The Colonel snapped a small slider to the left and tapped his control panel, for luck, "Wing Seven, this is Colonel Duka, what is expected ETA?", he broadcast the message to the ten planes making up his personal fighter wing.

After a few seconds, he received a reply, "Sir, ETA reads two minutes until engage."

Duka chucked again, "Negative, soldier. No engage, the enemy has grounded themselves. We're flying clear."

Beneath the large helmets required of pilots, there were nine grateful sighs. For it was true, moving at mach two-point eight means you can travel two-hundred miles in approximately five point seven minutes, and they did.

There were seven-hundred and fifty Strakhen Sokol fighter aircraft streaking out of the sky, who would, in under two minutes time, be racing up and down the beaches of their charge, completely unopposed from by the enemy aircraft. And, when the enemy and his planes did arrive, the Dominion would be ready.

Until then, seven-hundred and fifty fighter planes, their 30mm cannons, and two-hundred and fifty ground attack planes, and their four-thousand pounds of cluster-operating high explosive munitions, supplemented by their own two-thousand pounds of anti-tank guided missiles and 30mm automatic cannon.

And, to make everything even better, only minutes after the fighters and their attack planes arrived, a further fifty heavy strategic bombers would each complete their first pass, unloading, from every plane, thirty-five thousand pounds of high explosive bombs.

Surely, no loss could come of a situation so perfect...

OOC: You said you were landing for more ATA munitions... And I said I was only two-hundred miles away...

IC:

The sight of the marines pulling back brought about a massive cheer all along the beach. The remaining water towers waited for the men to get back in front of them, and opened up some more. HY-2's and railguns continued pounding the retreating transports, giving them hell as they left.

Corporal Redfist watched as the enemy men began to retreat, literally going back into a sea of dead. His company sprang from the trench they were holding and surged forward, screaming wildly and firing into the enemy marines as they attempted to leave. Ahead of the corporal, a badly wounded TPF marine was bayonetted by a young private. Redfist felt badly for this man, but not as badly as he did for all of the men killed in the TPF missile strikes. They chased the enemy boys all the way back into the water, and kept shooting until they were gone.

OOC: Final casualties?

OOC-Or we can cut him off. :P

The fleet stationed in Blackhelm had sat back and waited, knowing that it was not needed. Then came the failed landing, and the TPF fleet began to pull away. That just wouldn't be allowed. The fleet advanced to cut it off as it left. Submarines fired torpedoes into the ships farthest ahead to create a slow, or outright sunken obstacle in the way of the others. Once the fleet got into range, the crew loaded guns with Chlorociprin shells, which would fire a gas that caused vomitting within two minutes. This would be to counter any gasmasks that the TPF crews happened to get on before the next shells came; Soman shells. These shells released huge amounts of one of the most deadly gases known to man, known to kill within 15 minutes with enough contact.

Airspace above beaches, Pudite Air Fleets, The Battle Ends
Colonel Duka dove again, his aircraft screaming toward the water as the small black LCAC below him moved ponderously away from the beach. Machine gun fire filled the air around him, he head it crackle below. The thumb squeezed, the plane rattled as the 30mm cannon opened up, tearing boot-sized holes in the fragile craft. The experienced airman pulled up, rolled sideways over the water and banked a turn back over the beach and defenders for another go and the retreating foreigners.

All around him, just as the Pudite planes were arriving, they found their prey both lightly defended and retreating... A smaller, quicker F-41A soared over him, dropping the clamps on the missile handing out of its bottom bay and sending it screaming out into the ocean, destined for another unlucky boatload of shell-shocked marines.

Farther above him were another few hundred of these light fighters, all flying a loose formation around their objective, a squadron of F/B-177 Barsuk strike bombers. It was deemed wasteful to return without splatting at least a few of the enemy soldiers, and so the Barsuk squadron, arriving later than the other fighters and attack planes, was ordered out to sea to bombard the fleet these landing craft were based off of. None carried armor-piercing munitions, but that mattered little as they would only have to punch through the likely flimsy deck armor of the lighter ships. These fifty bombers moved out, bombardiers scanning the water below, peering through clouds and smoke to search out the enemy fleet's escort ships, replenishment ships, and submarine tenders. Such a fleet could not remain in one place for long without such ships. The Pudite's were forcing them home...

Each plane would drop thirty-five thousand pounds of high explosive through the deck of the enemy’s frigates, and then return, hopefully using both the escorts, as well as the bombers, great speed to outrun any pursuers back to Pudite air cover, for even a Barsuk can reach mach two when empty...

The battle was over, but the war was not. This fleet could not be allowed their choice of harbors, especially not here, so close to the Pudite airbase.

OOC-Maybe if you were hitting my homeland with a massive amount, but not if you hit my fleet or something. That's just stupid.

As the Pudite bombers closed in, The Peoples Freedom welcomed them with 5,00 0 AA missiles flying towards the aircraft. The 4,000 Aircraft fired an additional 2,000. The Super Capitol ship Liberty had arrived earlier in the day, and sent Flak shells up into the sky. In additon, 500 .50 machine guns fired.

In addition to the fleet attack, 1,000 bombers and 1,000 fighters came in over the TPF fleet along with Pudite planes. Each one dropped it's full 25,000lbs of explosives, mostly onto carriers and supply ships. Fighters strafed battleship decks, meant to hit crewmen. Then came the Zukariaan "plane bombs". These were remote controlled kamikaze planes flying at their top speed of mach 2, directly into battleships. There were 20 of them, all that the Zukariaans had brought with them.

The 2,000 planes came zooming in. The Peoples Freedom fighters launched 2,000 missles, followed by 2,000 from ships below. Flak Shells raped enemy planes. The CIWS fired upon the suicide aircraft.

OCC2: You have to rp the subs because I have to have the chance to spot some, and I have a special weapon to do this with.

OOC-Wait, you just got done missile spamming Pudu, how are you missile spamming me, now?

Carrier Group Manhattan now through its weight into the fight. The group, which was holding position in the Straits of Paradise, was now ready to deploy its weapons. Ten Aegis cruisers all opened up, launching 100 Tomahawk missiles screaming towards TPF supply ships. From the main carrier, The Chancellor, cast off its own ninety SuFB-8 Phoenix fighter bombers, sent to attack the fleeing transports. They would be easy targets, as the massive Confederate and Pudite air forces were busy pillaging the rest of the TPF forces. On shore, HY-2 anti-shipping missiles continued to pound the hell out of the enemy vessels as well, lending even more to the hell those marines were facing.

The CIWS attacked the Tomahawks, but 12 got throgue sinking 10 supply ships.

OOC-Alright then.

The missiles came in on the bombers and fighters, and they began to use their countermeasures. Still, it was not always enough. 75 bombers and 45 fighters were annihilated, even as the pilots tried to maneuver away. Several of the bombers caused short chain reactions, taking down an additional 30. Still others were not totally damaged, and the men aimed their falling planes to crash into the enemy ships before ejecting. The rest continued on, dropping their bombs and speeding away under enemy fire.

5 of the kamikaze planes were taken down, but their speed and resistance to explosion was enough to keep most of them from being destroyed.

Below the surface, the subs waited below the Zukariaan fleet, which continued to bombard supply/arsenal ships. The 23 subs each fired 2 torpedoes, a total of 46, firing into whatever was in the way.

Airspace Above Foreign Fleet, Pudite Bomber Attack, Defenders Advantage
As the two-hundred Pudite planes roared over the enemy fleet, they had apparently attracted some attention. Only seconds after spotting the target ships the bombers active radar display caught the signal of literally thousands of enemy missiles...

However, these bombers were supremely equipped to deal with such a threat. A pair of small black-coated pods located under each wing of all two-hundred aircraft immediately hummed to life, doing their best to keep their respective aircraft alive against the bombardment.

First, passive radar sensors detected the incoming missiles tracking frequency and began either canceling it out, through precise frequency manipulation, or resonating it in higher and higher amperage, causing the missile to assume proximity and detonate prematurely.

Meanwhile, more conventional hot-burning flares were launched down from the aircraft into the missile cloud, and hundreds of millions of tiny reflective sheets of silver paper followed them, distracting guidance lasers, throwing the missiles into a confusion.

These flares were supplemented by the fact that the aircraft itself was fitted with a unique heat-dispersion system, conveying the heat from the exhaust, usually the best way for the heat-seeking missile systems to identify the craft, to a gelatin layer running all throughout the bombers formidable armor. Here it quickly and easily disperses the heat over the entire skin of the aircraft, lowering the median heat drastically and making it highly unlikely that any missile would choose the large cool shapes over the pronounced burning shapes below...

These bombers continued, nearly unnoticing, over their targets. At this height, nearly sixty-two thousand feet, there was no anti-aircraft weapon capable of affecting them, and the missiles had been well dealt with.

All in all, twenty-four of the bombers were blown out of the sky, exclusively by the LIDAR-equipped missiles, the most likely to see through the extravagant disguises of the advanced plane. Following these losses, a further fifty-nine fighters were destroyed, their heat conveyance systems being not as advanced as their larger counterparts.

The bombs fell, but those below were not rewarded with the bombers they thought would accompany them to the sea.

Now it was in the hands of a GPS system and the computer-controlled fins of the hundreds of thousands of pounds of bombs to deal with the ships, the planes had done their part. Turning quickly, revealing themselves to another salvo, the squadron cut back across the enemy fleet, this time at speeds sometimes reaching mach three.

The strike was complete, with a minimum of casualties...

Wanderjarian Wolf Packs, Twenty five groups of four Cartagena Class SSNs, began hunting Undershi ships.

Upon sighting these ships, they would give no warning, merely creating a targeting resolution, and firing torpedoes.



If the enemy wanted to fight TPF, they would have to fight the Wanderjarians too.

The submarines were decteced, but too late. The torpedos downed at least 13 supply ships, putting a dent, just a dent, in the Merchant Fleet. The kamaizkaze planes slammed into the decks, furthur killing four supply ships and a destoyer.

The F-29's then enganged the enemy at close range unleashing MIRV-missles at the enemy.

Wanderjarian Admiral Reinhardt ordered all SSNs to open fire against all hostile targets. The Zukarrians who were attacking the TPF fleet qualified.

The Hundred ships manuevered themselves silently beneath the waves, getting into position unseen by the enemy. And then, as soon as they were all ready, they fired. Torpedoes soared through the water, screaming towards the enemy ships.

Then, the Wanderjarians began to move away, to evade counter attacks.

Stupid jolt slowed RIGHT when I went to post, taking my long ass post with it.. Here goes my try at redoing it..

The torpedoes were completely unexpected. 7 battleships were taked out of action, and some torpedoes that got through the defensive ring around the less powerful fleet that they formed took down supply ships, 6 of them. Men fell scrambled for escape, many dieing, drowning, exploding. Still, many survived and made it to other ships, where they were given no breaks. They joined a new crew. Whatever could be saved from the supply ships was, but the majority of it sunk or now floated in the sea.

Admiral Kauffmann watched as his ships sunk, but he could not stop at his tasks. He radioed to the Confederate carrier group Manhatten about what appeared to be a massive amount of submarines, and requested submarine support if possible.

Just then came one of the most welcomed calls the admiral had ever recieved.

"Well hello there, Fleet Admiral! It appears you're in a bit of a pinch!"

"What took you so long, shithead?" came the reply from the admiral. This was the backup fleet's commander, Admiral Gunther.

"Sorry, boss. Was bit of a slowdown. What do you want us to do?"

"I want your ass to hit them with everything you've got. I mean everything! And watch for submarines, they just took out a group of ships."

"Righto, boss!"

The connection was terminated. Kauffmann momentarily considered having the overly energetic admiral shot.

Submarines were currently unavailable, but they can still do somthing. Several hundred CB-2 Confederate made torpedo bombers took to the skies, supported by another five Hyperions, and several hundred more HY-2 missiles made their way to the enemy fleets. The HY-2's were focused at the TPF ships, which the formerly deployed 20 Hyperions were now also pummeling the enemy with their two 105mm howitzers and eight 56mm cannons, and firing two Tomahwaks and dropping several thousand pounds of JDAM's each. The new five had replaced their JDAM's with several thousand pounds of depth chargers, and moved in to face the Wanderjarian Cartagena fleet.

In Space

Within seconds of the missile launches against the Undershi satelites, they had responded in kind, volleying light missile fire at the hostile satelites, then deploying whatever kinetic strike abilities they still have against military and industrial targets in TPF.
Most of the Undershi orbital presence was lost in that brief, brutal, exchange of fire, but enough spy and comm satelites remain in orbit to ensure that the Undershi military is not fully cripled, and mass produced "Watcher" satelites are being thrown into the sky by the Undershis as quickly as they can manage - these satelites are designed as cheap comm and spy satelites that can be deployed at a moments notice. They are nearly as good as the ones they're replacing, and much cheaper - and, enough are being tossed into the sky that it will be hard to fully blind the Undershis.

In the Air

A massive aerial battle is developing as the Undershi air corp is pressing against the TPF airforce over the TPF fleet. Already, a second wave is inbound - this one consists of another 1,000 Lightning fighters and 500 additional Golden Eagle heavy bombers.
With the ones that are already there, the Golden Eagles have begun deploying their massive loads of anti-shipping ordanence - it seems to be raining laser-guided anti-shipping missiles and bombs...

In the Diplomatic Arena

Undershi diplomats are doing their best to assure Wanderjar that the Undershi Empire is not its enemy. Basically, they're doing what they can.

The Fleet

The Undershi fleet is continuing to volley missiles down onto the TPF fleet, while manuvering to remain out of artillery range as best it can.The Undershi fleet is well protected against submarine attacks by their own submarines and by pickets of destroyers.
Meanwhile, Undershi raiding forces of submarines are being reassigned to protect convoys against Wanderjaran submarines.

During the night, an additonal 100 ships had been sent to help, including the
Booch a few dozen ships were destroyed, including a cruiser and two battleships. The Superpower moved to the middle and all ships formed around it, providing a very powerful AA umberlla. At the same time, dozens of cannons opendend fire, everything from 18 inchers to 25 inchers. More missiles shot off, and then the Superpower and Booch fired their 35 inchers at the enemy fleet. Finally, The subs unleashed 40 torpedoes loaded with HMX.

Anyway, Your missiles; You said "Radar, IR, and LIDAR". I think that was all of 'em. Now, Radar homing missiles are cheap and reliable, I'd assumed that this is the basis of any missile-defense network, as not many people RP countering them like I did... Second, the IR missiles are also extreamly usefull, although I can almost promise to you that nobody else anywhere has the same IR defense, unless they bought the same aircraft. I can counter those quite well. Third, and last; the LIDAR is very good, but also very expensive. These would be the reserve, elite, very few numbers kind of missiles, also the ones that punch holes through the most defenses.

Plus! Those planes are quite high up in the sky, time enough to prepare the defenses they did.

In conclusion, I'll add more casualties if you think it's a godmod, but I don't think it is, nor should it be.

These would be the reserve, elite, very few numbers kind of missiles, also the ones that punch holes through the most defenses.

Plus! Those planes are quite high up in the sky, time enough to prepare the defenses they did.

In conclusion, I'll add more casualties if you think it's a godmod, but I don't think it is, nor should it be.

And Laser. An your an inch away from PMT, in my opinion. Therefore, I'll allow it go this one time, but if I fight your planes again, then I will expect you to take additonal causalties, either that, or my planes will have the same countermeasures. If you don't think this is fair, please let me know.

Zukariaa;11815224']OOC-Alright, time to bring in my 300 ships, which launched 3 weeks ago.. this should be fun. >_>

Hey, I'm German, too! D: Zukariaa is like 85% German. :o They speak German, too. Germans should be in peace, Wanderjar. Go away. XD
This time, TPF, can you post casualties from all of my attacks?

Stupid jolt slowed RIGHT when I went to post, taking my long ass post with it.. Here goes my try at redoing it..

The torpedoes were completely unexpected. 7 battleships were taked out of action, and some torpedoes that got through the defensive ring around the less powerful fleet that they formed took down supply ships, 6 of them. Men fell scrambled for escape, many dieing, drowning, exploding. Still, many survived and made it to other ships, where they were given no breaks. They joined a new crew. Whatever could be saved from the supply ships was, but the majority of it sunk or now floated in the sea.

Admiral Kauffmann watched as his ships sunk, but he could not stop at his tasks. He radioed to the Confederate carrier group Manhatten about what appeared to be a massive amount of submarines, and requested submarine support if possible.



*nods head, and frowns*

OOC: I don't think it's fair entierly, although if you want I'll take more casualties. I payed alot of money for the equipment I use, this is why it's better. If that's not fair, oh well.

What kinds of fighters do you use?

F-29's. A Custom design and a very potent one. They have similiar countermeasure to yours, but even so I would bump it up to at least 300 since so many missiles were shot.

In The Air

As the fighting continued, 64 Undershi Lightning fighters and five Thunderer fighter-bombers were shot down. Still, the others continue to fight, engaging TPF aircraft and deploying anti-shipping missiles against TPF naval assets.

In The Sea

18 destroyers and seven cruisers were destroyed by TPF counter-fire. However, another major fleet is on its way from the Undershi homeland, and will arrive shortly to reinforce the invasion fleet.

In Space

A continued rapid deployment of cheap, mass-produced, satelites has kept the Undershi High Command able to function - these cheap comm-and-spy satelites are meant to last only a little while before being destroyed, but while they're up there, they can do the necessary work.
Meanwhile, the Undershi Space Station is using its light missile armament to knock out any enemy satelites that come near it, but is not engaging in any really offensive attacks.

Project Overview

With the myriad of aircraft in the Air Force of the Armed Republic performing similar missions, especially with the heavily outdated DP-21V still gracing the skies, the Air Force looked for a competent replacement. The Air Force, in particular, was looking for an airborne electronics warfare aircraft, an air defense suppression aircraft, and a strike bomber, preferably in a single package. Previously, modified F-71 fighter bombers, DP-21Vs, and a jumble of other aircraft performed these same duties, albeit in chunks: the DP-21V served as an electronic warfare aircraft, the F-71N served in the SEAD [Suppression of Enemey Air Defenses] role, while four other aircraft including modified variants of both the DP-21 and F-71 served as light bombers. The logistics which this format entailed was mindboggling, forcing the Dedicated Logistics Service of the Armed Republic to continue to keep on hand parts that were over fifty years old for the DP-21V. The aircraft were stranded in the times they were produced, their space so severely limited they could not be brought to the modern times, each one's external hardpoints were effectively turned into a morass of ECM, targetting, et cetera pods that severely hindered each aircraft in their roles.

Within a few short months of the Air Force announcing its interest, and officially opening up a competition, they were barraged with three seperate designs from three seperate corporations. It was no competition that Dat' Pizdy Arms Corporation snared the contract, considering their aircraft, the CA-302 Concept 'A', aircraft blew the remaining two out of the proverbial water. The aircraft itself was amazing in the fact that it was a dual-purpose design, the same common airframe would carry two seperate variants: one dedicated to electronic warfare and the suppression of enemy air defenses while the other was a dedicated strike bomber aircraft. Each would carry the option to modify them to operate in expanded roles: specially produced hardpoints would allow expansion pods to be added to allow for enhanced electronics countermeasure performance, the ability to be an effective high-speed reconaissance aircraft, and other additional missions. The aircraft itself was of a sleek and smooth nature, obviously built for the missions intended. She was stealthy, never had an Armed Republic aircraft been built to be as steathy as her. The cockpit was a large and efficient one, housing either two options: a four seat arrangement for the electronic warfare model; or a two seat variant for the bomber. The wings swept back in a format similar to that of the F-63K Tengriy. Twin canted vertical stabilizers jutted from the curves of the engine housing, where twin afterburning turbofans lied in wait. The powerplants themselves were set deep into the frame, to reduce whatever infrared signature it produced, while the three dimensional thrust vectoring allowed for additional maneuverability. Underneath lied her air intakes, fairly large to allow for the rapid intake of air associated with supersonic flight, but built to be as radar-resistant as possible and blended well into the design of the aircraft. Three internal bays graced the underside interior, this Common Internal Stores and Electronics Stations [CISES] formed the basis for both variants' missions.

One thing was missing with the aircraft, with its official start of production, it was lacking a name and designation. Keeping with the tradition set forth by the F-225A Kestril stealth strike fighter, the aircraft was decided to carry a three-digit numerical designation, as it was a special mission aircraft. The electronic warfare variant received the official tag of E/F-177A Coldun Electronic Warfare and Air Defense Suppression Aircraft while the strike bomber was designated the F/B-177A Barsuk Strike Bomber. Their respective names were relevant to their missions, and especially fitting for both. The Barsuk would thrash its opponent with its munitions and awe-inspiring deliverance capability, while the Coldun would play tricks upon its opponent, ensuring they never knew what hit them, while creating vital pathways through any opponent's air defense network. Both would earn their keep within the Air Force of the Armed Republic.

[In the following sections, any reference to both variants in conjunction (as in they do share a common airframe) will be labeled as -177]

Aesthetics and Overall Design

The -177 [as they share a common airframe] airframe was designed to best supplement the aircraft's missions: electronic warfare, suppression of enemy air defenses, and as an efficient light strike bomber. It accomplishes all of this with its heavy, yet incredibly stealthy, airframe, full of internal space for the incorporation of electronics sets, detection suites, armament, and fuel. Her nose houses a vast majority of her threat detection, ground mapping, and avionics equipment, and sweeps back to the common cockpit shared by both designs. The common cockpit is large in relation to her smaller fighter brethren such as the F-63K, and has a large glass area to offer unhindered access to the forward viewing arc. Two supplementary glass areas allow unrivaled access to the sky to her sides and above. The interior of this cockpit, however, changes with which variant of the -177 frame is used. The E/F-177A Coldun utilizes a four-seat cockpit: the pilot and copilot situated upfront and given all the flight controls as well as targetting and attacking controls for when engaged in suppression of enemy air defense duties; and the two electronics warfare officers situated behind them, each operating their own set of electronics in coordination with one another. The F/B-177A Barsuk instead carries a two-seater cockpit, the pilot and copilot serving as both pilots and weapons officers, as well as electronics officers when additional electronic counter measures pods are installed. The additional space within this cockpit serves as expansion space for the addition of special mission equipment, or even additional crew if necessary [such as for long-duration flights].

Behind the cockpit, her heavy wings provide optimum lift and the ability to carry additional armaments, electronics, and fuel, all of which will give greather lethality to this common airframe, no matter what mission in which its operating. To enhance her stealth potential, and allow for increased maneuverability, the aircraft does not carry any form of horizontal stabilizers, instead, relying on vectored thrust and her canted vertical stabilizers. Her twin powerplants are recessed well into the airframe to ensure they are both protected and near-invisible to an opponent's infrared sensors. The actual output nozzles are recessed into the airframe as well, with the thrust vectoring system projecting out into a haven created by the frame of the aircraft but allowing for optimum movement, and protection.

To ensure the aircraft was stealthy in all aspects, she was designed with a structure to ensure that a majority of radio waves were reflected in a way that they did not return to the source which emitted them. Alone, this reduces its detection range and ensures that in most situations, the aircraft is invisible to most radars. To supplement this, radar absorbant material was used on surfaces on which it was required. Also, to heavily reduce its radar signature when flying normal combat missions, it was imperative that the design utilized internal armament/electronics bays, however, external hardpoints are still available when their operation is necessary. Another aspect of the design was its infrared signature. This was heavily reduced by reverting to a conventional turbofan powerplant and recessing it heavily into the frame of the -177. The tail of the aircraft [the rear end of the fuselage, and vertical stabilizers] actually serves to shield the exhaust from the side, as well as the bottom to an extent. Optical camoflauge systems may or may not be used, however, if utilizes it can allow for significantly reduced visual detection ranges.

With its stealth features readily apparant, its armament features are also as important, and necessary. The Common Internal Stores and Electronics Stations [CISES] provided both variants with a very capable internal armament and electronics systems composed of three integral bays: two offset, and smaller bays, with a large central bay. However, this is not the only armament storage system present on the aircraft. The -177 frame also carries several hardpoints, including three 'semi-internal bays'. Each wing carries three hardpoints. For adding external armaments without compromising the stealth mission of the aircraft, stealthy pods may be suspended from the hardpoints which store the munitions and act much like a miniature internal bay.

All of the design characteristics implemented in the -177 frame design ensure its superiority in the roles in which it participates: electronic warfare, suppression of enemy air defenses, strike bombing, reconaissance, or any other mission which this adaptable airframe can be modified to accomplish.

[B]Propulsion

Both variants of the -177 common airframe share the same powerplant. This heavily adaptable powerplant, capable of outstanding performance, was designed specifically to be utilized with the -177 series of aircraft. The aircraft operates twin P-ATF-3030 Varon Continuously Variable Bypass Afterburning Turbofan powerplants. The Varon powerplant utilizes a continually variable bypass design to offer compatability to all variants of this airframe, allowing high speed flight for the strike bomber variant while offering low-speed loiter capability to the electronics warfare aircraft variant. Overall, the powerplant was chosen over its pulse detonation hybrid cousins to reduce maintenance, increase reliability and engine life, and to reduce the overall infrared signature. Also, its fuel savings are enormous and offer combat ranges up to thirty seven hundred kilometers. With its capable powerplant providing over forty-four thousand pounds of thrust, the -177, no matter which variant, will be capable of stunning performance. The top speed for modestly outfitted -177 airframe will lie in the upper-mid Mach Two region [Mach 2.55-2.6], with the maximum sustainable [short burst] speed of the -177 being just a notch above Mach Two Point Eight, but this is only for the reconaissance variant which would be lightly fitted, or any other -177 variant without much in the way of armament or additional electronics or not realizing any stealth potential. A non-afterburning cruise speed lies at about Mach One point Seven. For stealth missions, it is recommended that speed be severely limited [less than Mach One]. Overall, the Varon powerplant rivals the Veter powerplant in both its capability and power, it is a real possibility that this powerplant may very well replace the Veter in the F-63K Tengriy.

The final active component of the powerplant subsystem is the three-dimensional thrust vectoring system. The project engineers opted for a system similar to that of most Armed Republic aircraft previously: a ceramic and alloy plate system capable of directing the impressive amount of thrust these powerplants produce. The PTS-561A thrust diversion system provides complete three dimensional movement and with its own flight control system [actual mini-wings] can move impressively fast, allowing for near-immediate changes in thrust direction that can give the aircraft the ability for truly amazing maneuvering potential [potential... it is not recommended to undergo intensive maneuvering]. The alloy plate system, utilizing two sets of aerodynamically and hydraulically assisted composite plates in a two vertical, two horizontal design fashion, provides optimum maneuvering potential when utilized. The plates are operated by small maneuvering surfaces which alter air flow over the sets [the horizontal set is not aerodynamically operated], allowing for cooling as well as assisting the hydraulic system in positioning the plates. By utilizing aerodynamic properties, a much smoother thrust diversion is achieved. All of the plates can operate at the same time [the two sets operating independently] at most angles and vectors, however some of the more extreme angles limited mobility of one set of plates [such as if thrust was to be diverted at a steep vertical angle, such as upwards, the upper plate would flip up and any movement by the horizontal plates would be minimized]. The horizontal thrust diversion is limited due to the enveloping nature of the rear frame, but sideways movement of up to ten degrees provides a noticeable amount of maneuvering potential. The vertical movement is not restrained by any design characteristics except for a slight reduction in the ability for the bottom plate to move at high angles downward [due to a portion of the fuselage covering the bottom of the system].

To ensure that the powerplant is safe and produces little outside-noticeable infrared and heat emissions, the twin powerplants are enshrouded in a powerplant covering and armor scheme. This total engine shroud is composed of several layers of Advanced Armor Laminate Series Two, which is composed of alternating layers of aluminum and titanium alloy foils, compressed and heated in an inexpensive process. The laminate is composed of two layers; a hard ceramic-like 'intermetallic' layer of titanium aluminide, and a pliable layer of residiual titanium alloy. With the powerplant shroud, composed of thirty-two 1mm thick layers of the alloy material, the powerplant is well protected. The material provides incredible heat absorption abilities, unsurpassed armor abilities, and reduces vibration courtesy of several layers impregnated with air bubbles and small steel or glass balls. The material, in the heating process, was contoured to provide total powerplant protection and cover.

Armament

Armament. The key to any offensive operation. This is what allows both major variants of the -177 frame to do their combat-related missions, and do them well. The Common Internal Stores and Electronics Stations [CISES] is the most noticeable of the armament systems. These three internal armament or electronics bays offer the ability to carry the armaments or electronics associated with both variants internally to not compromise the aircraft's stealth value. The central bay is designed to be the primary armament bay of both variants, housing the vast majority of armament for each variant. Each side bay is designed specifically for either self defense or special mission adaptions [such as HARMs for the F/B-177A, or additional electronics including reconaissance systems]. In addition to the internal bays, there are six external, wing-mounted hardpoints for the addition of whatever the mission requires. Each wing carries an additional three hardoints for the addition of external wing-mounted armaments, drop fuel tanks, or electronics countermeasures pods. An interesting note of the inner two hardpoints, closer to the wing root, is that they can be adopted to use a pod-type weapons storage system to carry armaments without compromising the aircraft's stealth.

For the F/B-177A Barsuk something like thirty-eight thousand pounds of munitions or additional electronics/systems, can be carried in her internal and external stations . For the Barsuk, recommended payload amounts include fifteen thousand pounds of payload in the main bay [57x250lb munitions, 30x500lb munitions, 12x1000lb munitions, 6x2000lb munitions, 3x5000lb munitions] and fifteen hundred pounds [2x HARM type weapons or 4x medium range AAMs] in each secondary weapons bay. Each the external wing-mounted stations carrying some twenty thousand pounds of munitions combined such as 2x2500lb cruise missile, 1x 3000-5000lb cruise missile, or [in the shrouds/pods] 18x250lb bombs, 9x500lb bombs, 5x1000lb bombs, or 2x 2000lb bombs. The actual load-out can vary assuming the utilization of additional pods [such as ECM pods that fit in the special mission adaption bays or on the wings] or varying types of armaments and their locations.

The E/F-177A Coldun can carry slightly less than the F/B-177A due to additional equipment, but is still nonetheless lethal in its adoption and use. Recommended load-outs for the E/F-177A include five additional electronic countermeasures pods [for the systems used on board] located on one fuselage hardpoint and four underwing. Combat-related stores include six thousand five hundred pounds of munitions in the main bay [8x HARM-type weapons or 6x HARMs and 3x AAMs] and an additional fifteen hundred pounds of munitions in each secondary bay [2x HARM-type weapons or 4x medium range AAMs]. Additional electronics sets may be used in any of the bays or external hardpoints to expand its mission.


Armament, Fire Control, and Avionics Systems

This is where the two variants of the -177 airframe diverge and become seperate beasts. Both variants are unique in the fact that they differ from their contemporary Armed Republic aircraft: they do not use the DEITE system. Instead, they both utilize a variant of the newly created Combined Electronics Management System [CEMS]. The Combined Electronics Management System was specifically designed for special mission aircraft such as the E/F-177A and F/B-177A. Their needs are quite different than the systems designed previously. However, the CEMS and DEITE systems share a common theme: the unparalleled integration of all of an aircraft's sensors and systems into a single, streamlined entity. No longer do seperate displays with a multitude of seperate controls all have to be manipulated to produce a single, common occurance. Instead, every system works together and in collusion with another, producing an incredibly efficient, networked electronics system. The Armed Republic's operational doctrine has always been to see first, fire first, and kill first, and with the recent generation of aircraft it is never more apparant. Combining the incredible threat detection suites of both variants of the -177 with their stealth properties, they are both more-than-capable enough to sneak well up to an opposing entity and wipe it from the earth, whether it is a surface-to-air missile site [which the E/F-177A would target in its SEAD role] or a central communications relay station [which the F/B-177A might target].

With both of their roles more oriented towards the attack of ground-based threats [except the E/F-177A which still carries a formidable aerial threat system to manage the aircraft it may be jamming and to serve as a mini-airborne radar for the aircraft its escorting]. The first threat detection system of the Combined Electronics Management System is the combined Photon Emission, Detection, and Ranging [PEDR] suite which utilizes two detection methods: Ambient Light [LIDAR] and Introduced Laser Detection [LADAR]. The two are intertwined and used at the same time. The GMLQ/L55 pulsed laser focal plane array [PLFPA] provides a wide view, three dimensional composite imaging, increased frame rates [faster threat detection], and can provide up to nine centimeters of depth perception since it is a photon emission and ranging device and does not measure intensity of the laser/light but rather the time of flight of the photons to the target, and thereby giving the range [which also allows for depth perception and the ability to see through fog, netting, smoke, etc.]. Because information is encoded in each pixel, the system can produce a three-dimensional, or "angle-angle-range", image. Emitters are located through-out the -177 frame and both variants carry the PEDR suite [which the E/F-177 may use for additional non-radar targetting for air defenses or for offensive operations; and which the F/B-177 may use for ground targetting and/or mapping] . Pending atmospheric conditions and light levels, the combined PEDR suite has a fore and aft viewing range of sixty miles, lateral range of thirty miles, and ground targetting/mapping ranges of about fifty miles The suite is tied in with a pulsed laser rangefinder for determing accurate target distances in conjunction with the infrared search and track system [which still retains its own laser rangefinder]. The PEDR suite on the E/F-177A contains high-energy capacitors to store energy to allow for the system to actually phenomenally increase its output levels to effectively 'burn out' enemy LADAR/LIDAR receivers and/or emitters.

Below are the statistics for the non-optical Photon Emission, Detection, and Ranging [PEDR] Suite:
Total Number of Tracked Entities: <120 Aerial/Ground Threats [Total All Systems]
Aerial General Surveillance: 80 miles [Forward Arc]; 30 miles [Rear/Sides]
Detail Scan: 60miles [Forward Arc]; 21 miles [Rear/Sides]
Surface scan [Ground Mapping/Threat Detection and Targetting]: 51 miles

The second portion of the three-point detection suite is the Comprehensive RADAR Primary Threat Detection System [PTDS]. The primary system of the PTDS is the Combined Radar Suite, composed primarily of the ALRQ/R75 Next Generation LPI [low/no probability of intercept] Active Electronically Scanned Array multi-function radar with impressive detection capabilities. The forward arc viewing range, due to an enhanced emission set, is around three hundred-fifty [350] miles for general scan on both models, especially with the bundled AMRQ/R77. This is augmented by an ASRQ/R10 short range composite ID radar, and the SPR-005 Panoramic Passive Radar Imager [PPRI] to offer a unique geo-location ability. The SPR-005 unit utilizes passive radar to obviously detect emitted radio waves and radiation; however, after this, it takes the data and from its incoming frequency and power-level, determines the range to target and actually calculates where the radar-emitting source is, as well as the effective range of its capabilities. This allows the aircraft to map the enemy's ground radar installations, or even track airborne sources of radar emission, to best avoid their effective ranges according to power levels and return signal power [as well as frequency, band, etc.]. This alone significantly enhances both variant's lethality in the battlefield of today. Each radar has been updated with its counter-electronic warfare system upgrade to allow for autonomous radar cycling in accordance with other aircraft and any airborne radar system. This is further enhanced with fibre-optics to allow for near-simultaneous frequency cycling. This is where the E/F-177A comes in. Her radar has been replaced with the ALRQ/R77 next generation LPI [low/no probability of intercept] active electronally scanned array multi-function radar mated with the Noran Systems NP66 which allows this impressive radar [which is effectively the same as the R75 radar but designed to be networked with the NP66] to function as a sort of offensive jammer itself by concentrating high energy beams on an enemy radar and communications transmitters essentially frying them.
Both variant's radar sets are primarly designed for the detection and targetting of ground-based threats, however, both still retain the ability to detect and range opposing aircraft, especially with the E/F-177A which may use the data to assist in targetting with electronic countermeasures, or jamming.

Below are the statistics for the non-optical Primary Threat Detection System [Radar] in active emission:
Total Number of Tracked Entities: <120 Aerial/Ground Threats [Total All Systems]
Aerial General Surveillance and General Threat Detection: 350 miles [Forward Arc]; 80 miles [Rear/Sides]
Detail Scan and Specific Threat Detection: 270 miles [Forward Arc (Aerial)]; 25 miles [Rear/Sides]
Surface scan [Full Power][Ground Mapping/Threat Detection and Targetting]: 210 miles
Surface scan [Stealth][Ground Mapping/Threat Detection and Targetting]: 50 miles

The final system of three-point detection suite is the Secondary Threat Detection System, which further augments both the PEDR and radar suites by offering a combined infrared/thermal and electro-optical threat detection system. This system, designated TRQ/EO-22, is fit snugly into a turret-like assembly in the chin of the -177 aircraft and offers it the ability to scan the sky and terrain ahead on demand. The TRQ/EO-22 operates in both the visual and infrared spectrums and offers stereo dual-band imagery at a rate of up to twenty-five thousand square miles of imagery an hour [assuming higher-than-normal speed and wide-view]. The dual band imagery will give tactical reconnaissance the ability to clearly distinguish man-made from natural objects as well as offering its capabilities to the targetting and threat detection systems of the aircraft. The ability to also display data from other targetting systems enhances the overall quality and effects of imagery taken in a reconaissance role. The actual TRQ/EO-22 assembly is designed to be of a low RCS style and does not significantly increase the radar cross section of the aircraft. The assembly also maintains a laser range-finder and designator for determing the range to target and illuminating targets for laser-guided munitions or for any other purpose. The laser designator can be used to illuminate anything within a full ninety degrees upon either side of the aircraft, as well as anything to a negative ninety degrees vertically, or up to a positive ten degrees towards the sky.

Below are the statistics for the Secondary Threat Detection System [Active/Passive Infrared/Thermal Only]
Total Number of Tracked Entities: <120 Aerial/Ground Threats [Total All Systems]
Aerial General Surveillance: 55 miles [Forward Arc]; 15 miles [Rear/Sides]
Detail Scan: 45 miles [Forward Arc]; 11 miles [Rear/Sides]
Surface scan [Passive][Surface-to-Air Threat Management][Ground Mapping, Threat Detection/Targetting]: 45 miles

Detection is but one part of the equation which results in the definite victory over an opponent, and fire control must be on par with your detection capabilities in order for the equation to truly be on your side. This is where the system works superbly with its Combined Threat Management System [CTMS]. It provides unparalleled data consumption and utilization to ensure the complete and utter dominance of this truly amazing aircraft on the battlefield. The heart of the Combined Threat Management System is the DefenseNet which links this singular aircraft to a database of immeasurable information and the computing power to process hundreds of separate targets per aircraft. The first thing the combined threat management suite does is turn all consumable data into the singular three-dimensional battlespace view which the system relies upon [an imaginary concept as all data is 'on-demand']. Supplementing this is the fact that each individual aircraft can track upwards of one hundred and twenty targets, ranking them according to type, threat level, range, and other factors and placing them in a prioritized fire list, which can be changed according to mission objectives and/or other factors [120 targets utilizing non-basic material. Cannot provide firing solutions, nor advanced tracking upon more than seventy of them without communicating with seperate aircraft]. Up to three hundred seperate targets can be detected and tracked at a basic level [as the proverbial blips on the radar screen, all you know is they're there...].

The Indrik II Enhanced Flight Control and Stability System Block 20 is an all-inclusive fly-by-light [fibre-optic] control system modified from its use on the F-67K Tengriy providing superb, fluid, and precise movement and maneuverability using all control surfaces available. The system links together every movement system together [including all control surfaces, canards, thrust vectoring, etc.] to give the aircraft maneuverability unmatched by even the swiftest bird in existance. The system is also very easy to get used to, due to its fluid and precise movement controls, allowing even newly released cadets fly the aircraft as though he'd been through hell and back with it. The Indrik II is triple redundant and utilizes a back up fly-by-wire system as well as an emergency mechanical linkage providing basic maneuvering capabilities. Another system networked with the Combined Electronics Management Suite is the ADVSCAD [Advanced Deep Visual Scan Canopy Awareness Display System]. This system is a series of projectors located through-out the cockpit that projects data onto the canopy in a seemingly ‘deep’ environment. Using known faults in the human eye, the system projects data that seems out in the air surrounding the canopy, when in reality it is on the canopy glass. This system shows targeting information, enemy whereabouts, heading information, aircraft information, battle information, command information, radar information, and others. It is fully configurable and can be modified to suit crew needs or requests. It also allows for targetting of enemy aircraft that are anywhere within the canopy view so that a helmet-mounted system can actually target the aircraft utilizing onboard detection systems.

Electronic Warfare and Countermeasures

The E/F-177A Coldun as an electronics warfare aircraft, maintains a number of electronic warfare equipment. The entire electronic warfare system is directly networked, via CEMS, to the rest of the aircraft and through any datalinking service. This allows for the system to utilize the other threat detection systems to complete its mission [such as using the radar to actively attack other radars or communications gear; or using passive radar as an additional frequency determining system]. First off, the necessary passive systems to determine frequencies, et cetera, are located through-out the aircraft from passive receivers in the the fuselage and nose to an array of antennae mounted on the wingtips, vertical stabilizers, near the fuselage tail, and within the nose of the aircraft. This network of passive receivers provides data and information on hostile transmitters that are necessary for the operation of the jamming and electronic countermeasures systems. These provide the basis for the electronic warfare system to build upon. The primary jamming system is the AADQ/S40 system which intercepts radar signals, processes them and then compares them to known threat radar characteristics stored within it and onboard computers. The system utilizes fiber optics to network the entire system, as well as digital implementation and offers complex modulation waveform detection, coherent jamming capability, active cancellation look-through, and specific emitter identification. The actual jamming [which is selective-reactive jamming] is done using four pods mounted on the wings and one on the fuselage. Each pod has four seperate jamming transmitters allowing for four different frequencies for each pod [or using more than one transmitter per frequency for additional power] and are powered by windmill-type generators on the pods' tips and the aircraft's engines' own generator system. The system can jam radar as well as communications and datalinking [as well as monitor and record communications or data]. The system can scan across frequency bands under computer or manual control and when threats are identified, countermeasures are initiated. Information about new threats can be manually fed into the system through expansion cards or manually, in the field, by one of the electronic warfare officers.

In addition to these already impressive radar and communications jamming capabilities, the E/F-177A also has the ability to jam GPS, GLONASS, or any other satellite-based communications or positioning system. The jammer has an impressive output power and can effectively deny the use of GPS in an area ranging a far as two hundred kilometers. Directional antennae allow for the selective jamming of GPS systems to maintain safe areas for friendly GPS use. This is tied in with the communications and datalinking jamming capabilities of the previous systems.

Additionally, electronics upgrades systems can be added to enhance and diversify its jamming potential, including infrared jamming systems, additional radar jamming systems, targetting systems, etc.

Survivability

The -177 airframe and its variants were designed to be survivable. The airframe is armored and protected against varying sizes of anti-aircraft cannon rounds to ensure the survival of a low-flying -177. Their most prominent armor system is the Advanced Armor Laminate Series Two, which is also found as the engine shroud. The laminate, composed of alternating layers of aluminum and titanium alloy foils, is compressed and heated in an inexpensive process and is composed of two layers; a hard ceramic-like 'intermetallic' layer of titanium aluminide, and a pliable layer of residiual titanium alloy. Several dozen one millimetre layers of the laminate provide unsurpassed ballistics protection. The armor is further supplemented, in key areas, by kevlar and epoxy resin with extremely dense plastic threads. Titanium is also present as well as more practical solutions to increasing defensive capabilities.

The entire cockpit for both variants of the -177 is designed to be jettisonable, after which each individual crew's SB-ASEV-41As are engaged and each crew exits in a sequential pattern. Each crewmember is also given the advanced hydrostatic pressure suit which uses fluid instead of air or straps to restrict blood flow, allowing the wearer to not black out while performing maneuvers of up to 13g [not really necessary with this aircraft]. The entire cockpit is also sealed and pressurized, breathable air running freely from onboard air tanks and air intakes. The aircraft can recycle is own air and carries an onboard supply of fourteen hours in addition to air which can be integrated from the outside. An NBC system is present to ensure the complete survival of the crew in the event their mission entails the utilization of nuclear weapons.

Passive Defense [Optical Camoflauge]

The -177 may also use optical camoflauge to augment its other stealth features. Optical camoflauge is achieved through the use of the AOGCSC [Advanced Optical General Color Scheme Camoflauge] system which uses dozens of real-time cameras and other optical sensors to capture the general color scheme around the aircraft. A central processing unit takes the data and transfers it to the opposite side of the camera, adjusting colors [lighter or darker] to make up for shadows and to make the aircraft mold into the surrounding air. The general color scheme is projected onto a hundreds of glass/plastic panels covering the aircraft through bundles of fiber optics [not many actual fibers per bundle]. The color scheme is generated centrally and travels through the fibers, when it reaches the end a light dissipator at the end projects the image onto a small piece of glass/plastic. The glass/plastic panels are covered by a layer of dense plastic designed to prevent shrapnel from shattering the systems as well as to 'deaden' the light, making it appear more realistic. Even the exhaust is covered, although differently... The thrust vectoring system is hard to see due to a series of halogen lights which 'crowd-out' the dark image of the thrust vectoring system and make them invisible at ranges of a mile [in daylight] [Of course disabled at night or in dark conditions]. The central processing unit also maintains a series of saved schemes including a general gray/blue design, an all-black design, as well as others.

[B]Electronic Countermeasures

The AEQI/EC-98 Electronic Countermeasures pod is an all-inclusive electronic countermeasures set designed to be carried by the F/B-177A. The AEQI/EC-98 features several orders of magntitude more processing power than comparable fighter/light bomber-based ECM systems and providing the aircraft with advanced selective-reactive jamming and geolocation capabilities [in conjunction with the SPR-005 unit onboard the aircraft]. Selective-reactive jamming - a new concept in electronic attack - was made possible by an advanced receiver system and sophisticated algorithms as well as its internal computing system [which is connected to the aircraft as well]. Selective-reactive jamming allows the system to focus its power more effectively on specific radar frequencies and to counter modern LPI radars. The system actively communicates with, and even uses, the host aircraft's own radar set. The massive amount of processing power of the receiver and the utilization of the aircraft's own power supply allows for unparalleled communications and data transmission disruption abilities, as well as eavesdropping. This system is also a supplementary system carried aboard the E/F-177 in replacement of the active radar cancellation system and offers additional jamming, communications/data interception, and generally more performance. Also, without the active radar cancellation system, additional electronics are fitted to aid the E/F-177A in its mission.

This is PMT. I am MT/PMT as my airships and AAD-1 balloons are PMT, so are my XM-1 tanks.

In The Air

27 Lightning fighters have been downed, along with one Golden Eagle heavy bomber. The remaining Golden Eagles have deployed their full loads of laser and satelite guided anti-shipping munitions, and are now returning to their bases, escorted by the remaining fighter-kit Thunderers. The bomber-kit Thunderers are also returning to their bases - their anti-shipping munitions have been depleted as well.
The second wave of Undershi attack craft are in-bound, and will arrive shortly - that's 1,000 Lightning fighters and 500 fresh Golden Eagle heavy bombers. The Lightning fighters that are currently engaged with TPF aircraft will continue fighting until after the fresh Lightnings arrive - they still have air-to-air missiles to use, after all...

In The Sea

TPF counter-fire found targets - five cruisers and four destroyers were sunk, and some light damage was done to the aircraft carrier Socrates. The remaining ships of the Undershi fleet have continued to rain missile fire down on the TPF fleet, and to volley off anti-aircraft missiles against any enemy aircraft that come in too near to the fleet.
Also, Undershi cruisers and destroyers are deploying their aerial assets - Crusader mk. II VTOL gun ships. These heavy VTOL air units are meant for ground support, but are able to engage aerial targets with some proficiency as well.
Meanwhile, the Undershi reinforcement fleet continues to near the fighting, bringing with it almost as many ships as are currently engaged against the TPF fleet...

In Space

Another round of attacks has begun against TPF and Wanderjar military and civilian satelites. These attacks are occuring in the form of missile attacks from Undershi Hunter anti-satelite missiles, which are very high-tech guided missiles meant to destroy an enemy nation's orbital infastructure. Because they need to be sent into space, and because their targets are rarely armoured, they carry relatively light explosive charges. Several hundred such missiles are being deployed.

In Undershi City

Aleksander Miller, IIS-appointed Leader of the Undershi Empire, looked at a list of forces currently deployed in combat, and swore. The TPF fleet was proving a more able enemy than had been anticipated... and so something had to be done about that threat. Perhaps... pondering possible ways to deal with the TPF fleet, he paced the command bunker. Something drastic needed to be done.

OCC: I personally am strictly MT except from my SD's but if you guys want to do PMT, I guess i'll just be at a severe disadavantage...

In The Air
The Enemy planes were retreating, and so the F-29's landend and refuled and rearmed. More planes came in from the Mainland. The Peoples Freedom was getting low on Air Assets.

At Sea
The last of the enemy AS missles struck down a heavy cruiser and severly damaged a carrier. The Fleet launched 1,000 more missles, and the powerful thirty five inch cannons fired at the enemy flagship.

In Space
Back in TPF the citizens noticed that their TV's and computers were no longer receving orbital sigels, proving their really was a war. The Peoples Freedom sent a message to Nuclear Command, and they launched over one hundred anti-orbital missiles.

OOC: Yes, you will, especially with these airships

IC:

Hyperion airships pummeled the fleeing TPF vessels mercelessly, firing wave after wave of anti-shipping missiles of various sizes as well as 105mm howitzer shells at the enemy fleet. Most enemy missiles were dealt with by the truly massive amount of countermeasures each Hyperion held, and those few that broke through were destroyed by the THEL or CIWS systems on board.

The fighter/bombers sent off from the Chancellor continued strafing the TPF transports, as the Incinerateur artillery and HY-2's pummeled them from the coast. The water was a deep crimson color, stained by the blood of thousands of TPF marines. Debris and bodies were washing up on shore constantly, and ships moved into the Straits of Paradise to begin cleaning up.

Wanderjarian SSNs, seeing the success of their previous volley of torpedoe fire, began targeting more enemy ships. With as many ships as there were in the water, the enemy would scarcely have room to move, almost assuring a blood bath....

OCC: I personally am strictly MT except from my SD's but if you guys want to do PMT, I guess i'll just be at a severe disadavantage...

What happened with those Hyperions and Torpedo bombers?

By now, the new fleet from The Peoples Freedom had arrived.The Capital Class SD Booch had now arrived at the scene along with various other ships to bolster the Armada. In addtion, 50 Volcano bomber were fast closing in on the enemy fleet, loaded with powerful missiles. These missiles have a Mach 7 SCRAM jet engine and carry a super powerful warhead.

OOC: I'm not laughing at the way you play at all... We're all here to have fun, I was laughing becuase I'm enjoying this moment.

The Scandinvan crusader fleet pulled out, as did that of the Tocrowkians. Now the entire Confederate/Griffincrest fleet bore down on the TPF fleet. With 450 Zukariaan vessels already hitting the enemy fleet, these over 200 ships should only quicken the destruction. The smoking Archangel class dreadnought, the Blackhelm, pulled out to make repairs in New Atlanta, but the still fighting Ravager class, Confederate Pride, lead in the task force, along with the three GNF Krakens. The enemy fleet would soon know the bottom of the Sea of Neptune.

The Wanderjarians began pounding the BC fleet with everything they had, as nothing had yet targeted them. The SSNs, being unopposed, targetted the Krakens first, firing over a hundred torpedoes from fifty SSNs.

The other fifty went after the Dreadnought, hoping to kill the enemies momentum before they were able to strike.

The enemy torpedoe bombers were not a surprise, however the Wanderjarians evaded the enemy attacks, as the surface fleet began firing AAA Guns at the enemy aircraft.

Wanderjar, i dropped thousands of pounds of depth chargers on you.

I'm using airships, not er..well I guess you could say water ships? I bought a load of Hyperions from Phoenix a long, long time ago.

TPF do you have any idea how big, or how expensive a mach 7 missile is?

Or, for that matter, how much preperation it would take to fire off 10,000 of the damn things?

As news came in from the Imperial Foreign Ministry, about a possible peace treaty between Undershi and The People's Freedom, the fighting continued. Dozens perished as the flames of war, so near to the point of exctinction seemed to leap up even higher, as admirals and generals threw all they had into last efforts to gain glory before peace broke out...

In The Air

The second wave of Undershi aircraft has reached the fighting. As the second wave's fighters take over the fighting, the remaining aircraft of the first wave are turning around and returning to their bases.
As the Lightning fighters struggle to force the TPF airforce from the skies, the Golden Eagle heavy bombers deploy their cargos of laser-guided death against the fleet below them. Once more, perhaps for the last time, this particular stretch of sea is lit by man-made fire, as missiles and bombs explode, striking with deadly force...
Seventeen Lightnings and one Golden Eagle fell from the sky in flames, twenty five pilots died in agony within their flamming metal cofins, as the fighting in the air intensified once more.

In The Sea

The missile fire from the Undershi fleet continues to fall upon the TPF fleet, supporting the Undershi aircraft already engaged in attacking it, while the few pieces of conventional artillery possesed by the Undershi fleet are opening up as well, sending eight and ten inch shells into the TPF fleet, adding to the destruction.
The shortening of engagement range hasn't helped the Undershi fleet - quite the opposite. Three destroyers and a cruiser have been destroyed, while the fire directed against the Undershi flag ship is starting to have an effect...

Interlude

Admiral McCormik never saw the shell that killed him. The flag bridge of the Undershi Navy carrier Aristotle was as well protected as it could be... but it had a window. That window was where that one lucky shell hit, and the effects that it had on the command crew, even through heavy armoured glass, were catastrophic.
A few seconds after that oh-so unlucky hit, Fleet Flag Captain Spaller was on the fleet command channel:
"Admiral McCormik is dead! I'm in charge here - I want all units to concentrate all available fire on the TPF fleet - we're going to punish those murderers!!!" he kept shrieking for a few minutes after that, but no one was paying attention - the shrill tone of his voice told of panic and horror and fear... not of command. Within a matter of minutes, he had been relieved of command by the IIS liason on his ship, and the senior-most of his juniors had been placed in command... but those minutes lost mattered...

In Space

The crew of the Undershi Space Station weren't so lucky - they could see the TPF anti-satelite missiles flying up straight at them. They tried to save themselves, firing off counter-missiles as rapidly as they could... but it was no use. A TPF missile struck the station head-on, breaching it through and through, opening its innards to the vacuum of space...
The lucky ones were killed quickly, either in the blast or afterwards by the vacuum. The not so lucky ones were not - rather, their space suits held, and they survived to be tossed into the void, there to die the lonliest deaths imaginable as the air ran out in their suits...
The Undershi anti-satelite campaign is continuing, though, with a real effort being made to disrupt enemy communications and intelligence.
