MBT-6D-120 TUCK
Press (1) to activate turret. Press (2) to activate Commander's MG. Press (4-7) to fire the gun. VTOL to control direction, Yaw to steer. A variant of the NFK's MBT-6D main battle tank, with its 122mm KOR-AUT replaced by the 120mm Coilgun M5A3. While the performance of both weapons are comparable, the 120mm Coilgun M5A3 is a weapon whose ammunition is standard issue for Pilotmario Army and Marine Corps units, where the 122mm KOR-AUT's ammunition is not. Because of this modification, the gunsight has been moved to a periscope mount above the turret. This vehicle also has a TUCK II kit, with the commander's MG now remotely operated, removing the need for a gun shield. In addition, the ERA bricks are physically smaller, leaving a smaller gap when detonated.

Okay@Pilotmario
Actually, the only reason why I added the 120mm Coilgun M5A3 is to give it my own personal touch instead of simply lathering it with ERA and calling it a new tank. @PINK
National Gendarmerie is a paramilitary unit, though Provincial Gendarmerie, although named as such, is a wholly civilian force which was a paramilitary unit before its reorganization in 151 AE. @PINK
They are technically paramilitary, and act as a large special response team. @Pilotmario
Our police force (aka National Gendarmes and Provincial Gendarmes) are purely civilian. There are also military police units. All three have SRTs, or Special Response Teams, officers trained for the pursuit of high-risk criminals, hostage situations, and crowd control. Marine Raider Regiments, Navy Sea Rangers, Army Scout Rangers, and Air Force Special Service Group are all under Special Forces Command, which although not a separate branch, is subordinate to Defense Ministry. @PINK
You are just starting out, but thank you. @ssTJC
@PINK I cannot build anything this good.
Why? @ssTJC
I must be terrible at this game.
We have 8 others. Special Police Armed Gaurd is the SPAG, the MIDOSC is the Martime Inafantry Operations Scout Command, the MIAL Martime Infanty Assault Landers, the ASOT-Air Force Special Operations Troops, the Jungle Kats (a internal paramilitary force), Mongol Avengers (army), the SOG-Special Operations Ground (army).....and the Amerkes.@Pilotmario
Oh. We have Army Scout Rangers, Navy Sea Rangers, and Marine Raiders. @PINK
Yes, the largest is the SPAG ..... and the smallest is the MIDOSC. @Pilotmario
Of course. You do have actual Special Forces units, right? @PINK
The Mongols are not considered special forces, despite the fact that they go through viscous training. They are they largest elite force used by the NFK. The Mountain Guard, the term used for the 2 Divsions, is part of the NFK's internal guard. They don't use millitary weapons and vehicles often.
We are also deploying 8 Martime Divsions on Myawar. @Pilotmario
Understood. However, in the long run, it is better to retrain a force which comprises a minority of the forces present on a new set of weapons than carry two distinct ammunition calibers for two very similar weapon systems.
Already, our ammunition is the same, as is some of our weapons. Your Special Forces take a liking to the M31 carbine and Rocker PX-1 pistol. Both are accurate, lightweight, durable, and have plenty of firepower. The 111th Mountain Troops do like the M20 and M30 sub machine guns. @PINK
Although they hate using foreign equipment. @Pilotmario
Good. @PINK
They are trained on almost every weapons that they could be forced to use. @Pilotmario
Also note that the Mongolian divisions should probably be issued and trained on the use of Pilotmarian equipment given our experiences. @PINK
The IVA-7, PLT-1, and the drones were used extensively for perimeter patrols during the initial phases. However, towards the later portion of the battle, the IVA-7 was replaced by the GPT 1/4t M1, since the logistical situation became more strained and it was decided by Captain Kim and General Parker to mothball all NFK machines, since they found it increasingly difficult to maintain them. The PLT-1, while useful on STOL situations for forward reconnaissance bases, the Provider I C-1 and Provider II C-3 were preferred for their larger payloads. The Provider I in particular found greater use since parts were highly available, as it used the same engines as the Pummeler, where the PLT-1 did not. They were put in the mothball fleet by a false airfield in order to relieve some of the shelling that was becoming increasingly dense. Both machines were destroyed by Vandarian shelling that claimed several derelict Pummelers assigned there.
The favored machine of the NFK mountain troops was the Prime Mover M3. It's light tank origins in addition to its reduced weight compared to the Scorpion it was based on gave it unprecedented mobility due to its low ground pressure (slightly lower than that of a man on skis), high torque, and most importantly, heated interior. They were disappointed when they couldn't keep them and had to return them to the artillery batteries so they can move their pieces up.
The drones? Again, parts were an issue in the later stages of the battle, which was why the Pummeler and the Provider II were the only fixed-wing aircraft there that had a readiness rate exceeding 50%.
In short, the dire logistics situation meant that the Pilotmarians had the priority. After all, only two ships of similar size a week could supply them, and having this bad situation made more complicated because a regiment that doesn't use the same equipment the division which supports them uses is a pretty easy problem to fix. @PINK
We deployed them with IVA-7s, two PLT-1s, and four small drones.... @Pilotmario
I suppose. The 111th was equipped with them, since we would manage the logistics of all forces under General Parker's command. Your commanders decided to deploy them since the Pilotmarians would be supplying NFK regiment in Snowstone, and these machines were almost mechanically identical to the M17A1 AFV. Also, they were taking up space and they wanted a way to get rid of them. The Mi-1 was too valuable to scrap but was unsuitable for general issue due to a push to standardize on NFK-built machines which resulted in the closure of the Mi-1 line. In the end, the NFK mountain troops had no use for them since the terrain they operated in was too rough for large vehicles like the Mi-1, the Stallion M17A1, and the IVA-4 and -7. Matter of fact, the only motorized vehicles they used were motorcycles, snowmobiles, General Purpose Truck 1/4 ton M1, and Prime Mover M3 from artillery units, since their guns were going to be fixed for a very long time. The fleet was simply gutted by PRMC mechanics for use by PRMC Stallion.
The Snowstonian Republic adopted the Mi-1 deployed, but soon scrapped them anyways due to their poor condition. @PINK
We haven't used those for more than five years. We find the IVA-4 and IVA-7 more suitable. @Pilotmario
License-built M17A1 Stallion equipped with 30mm Autocannon M13. @PINK
When did you beef up? Okay, however, what is a Mi-1? @Pilotmario
