Colstream/Lamoni Military Exercise OOC Thread:

This thread will decide the number of forces and location of the exercise, as well as the time and duration.

Any ideas Lamoni???

Well, first I need to know the types and numbers of weapons that you are sending me... i'm thinking of testing them out in the exercise.

I think that the land exercises could take place in your base on my soil, it's big enough. Air exercises could parallel the land exercises, IE, you defend while I attack.

A week should be sufficient, i'm thinking. Do you have any thoughts?

Armor:

The PT MBT-1 tank incorporates Chobham armor. Armour bulkheads separate the crew compartment from the fuel tanks.

--------------------------------------------

The Juggernaut is designed to clear enemy armies from the battlefield with it's heavy main and other guns.
The grenade launcher banks can fire a variety of HE grenades, as well modern smoke grenades that are designed
to confuse even IR devices that may be present in enemy tanks. Anti-air protection is afforded by a PT37A2 AA
gun, and the computer/radar controlled PT35A1 30 mm anti-missile chain gun is designed to detonate incoming
anti-tank missiles before they can kill the Juggernaut. The Juggernaut also has excellent range and speed,
being powered by a powerful modern diesel engine. A more humorous aspect of the Juggernaut is it's inbred
ability to create hot water for either tea or coffee.

1st Air Fleet

200 F-16C fighter-bombers

I am sure cause I am using the same ratio as British, US and Coalition forces to estimated Taliban Forces in Afganistan. Which is about a 2.5-3 to 1 superiority. Plus 1 Colstream Army Division equals 35,000 Soldiers plus their equipment.
