Boris Alexandrovich Ulyanov welded the final component onto the last 140mm gun, and the Krasnyj Zvezda was hauled out of the factory for painting. Behind him, other workers were hard at labor on the Sovietsky Oktyabr, and 6 other brand-new Spark class submarines. More were just beginning construction. The next 80 PAK FA-Izh fighters were having GSh-30-1 cannons installed, and test pilots jetted off overhead. In a building just 200 yards away, machines were cranking out recievers for AK-103 assault rifles, Stechkin pistols, and tonnes of nictrocellulose powder was being poured into 9 millimeter cases. White Phosporous was loaded into shells, and Uranium spun in centrifuges on the horizon. Ammonium Perchlorate was synthesized and packed into large rockets, and guidance systems were installed on 9k38 Anti-Air missiles. The skeletons of what would become carriers and destroyers were finished, as armed guards patrolled the 30-foot high barbed-wire fences.

The war with Allanea had taught Izhevskia a grave lesson. But it was a lesson that had to be learned. The country had seen now that imperialism had no boundaries, no shame, and no care except that of money. So they would defend themselves, to preserve the socialism they had fought so hard for- it would not be so easily lost. And now, the people and the leaders of Izhevskia were going through a coming of age- growing up into a real nation.

Now, Izhevskia raised the stakes. Today, 50 RS-24 Ballistic missile rolled out of the factory. Each one carried ten Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicles, or MIRVs, which traveled at hypersonic speeds. They were solid feuled and could reach any point on Earth. They could withstand nuclear blasts. This was the cutting edge of nuclear technology. But Izhevskia upped the ante even further. They had created two RS-35 missiles- each one carrying 3 100 Megaton "Tsar Bomba-2" MIRVs. This missile was huge. This missile was dangerous. And this was just the beginning.
