My primary recommendation would be that the locations of the forward Mk 85 gun mount and the Mk 29 box launcher should be reversed. @AverroesIndustries
@Killguymonster I presume what you are talking about is the M416 from PUBG.
The M416 in PUBG is a renamed HK 416 to avoid potential copyright issues; HK is a registered trademark by Heckler and Koch, and using it without proper permission is easy grounds for a lawsuit. The HK 416 itself is an improved M4 Carbine in order to make it more suitable for use with special forces.
As a matter of fact, it was originally named the HK M4 during development, but changed the name to avoid a copyright suit by Colt, which owned the M4 trademark. While Colt lost the lawsuit from Bushmaster regarding the trademark, I presume that HK felt it would be easier to change a name than to pay lawyers for a court case.
It's not the size of a standard container. And our pilots know what standard containers look like, because we use empty steel 20-foot containers for target practice all the time.
The key to good writing is to read good literature and apply the techniques which you think are best to your work.
Writing, rewriting, and even more will be made. Don’t be afraid to revise everything if you aren’t satisfied. And best of all, have someone else read it over to see if it makes sense. They’ll catch anything you missed. @Kaos
You can count the Paternian Republic and her industries on your side.
We basically have everything.
The following companies are potential suppliers:
KRIEG (ground vehicles, aerospace, maritime systems, consumer products, firearms)
Bandit (ground vehicles, aerospace, maritime systems, electronics, consumer products)
Dragon (aerospace, electronics, and a subcontractor for firearms, consumer products, ground vehicles)
Carlton (firearms and knives)
Rocker (firearms and weapons systems)
Tesla (electronics)
Unity Defense (private military corporation)
Paternian Defense Industries (defense-related products such as armored vehicles and radar)

@PyrusEnderhunter Basically, although the Commando's form has been copied extensively by many nations such as France (VAB) and China (Type 90/92/WZ-551).
@GermanWarMachine It's for emergency moments against formations of enemy aircraft. Generally, batteries are not cleared to employ boresight mode if friendly aircraft are in proximity.
Normally, the missile is guided to a target which has been detected, tracked, and identified by the AN/MPQ-54/64. This is standard operational procedure in peacetime exercises.
However, combat tends to have everything go wrong spectacularly, and it is a possibility that the main radar would be knocked out and interceptors may be unavailable. If this is the case, then boresight mode is employed as a last-ditch defensive measure to give the battery some degree of operational capability.
Granted, the chance it's going to hit something in boresight mode is somewhat low. However, it's at least something, which is better than having nothing.
However, I'm referring to rifle-caliber 7.62mm weapons. 7.62x51mm NATO and 7.62x54mmR, two very common military rifle cartridges, have about 1000 joules over .50 Action Express.
And by nuclear, biological, and chemical threats, I am referring to the ability for the weapon to be able to operate in an environment with high radiation, bio weapons such as anthrax, and chemical weapons such as poison gas. If you drop a nuke on it, even a 300kt warhead (smallest warhead commonly employed), it will likely vaporize it.
However, nukes are often employed for impressive blast effect, and are mostly airburst weapons. In this scenario, it could survive a 300kt blast at a distance of 850m. And by survive, I mean "able to be towed out and repaired", because the shockwave would have killed whoever was in there.
Finally, a destroyer about the size of a destroyer.

I think it's best we keep them in museums when they get too old.
Or scrap them, but that's a less honorable way to go I suppose.

+1It was based off the Brooklyn-class designs, with elements from the Cleveland, Baltimore, and New Orleans-classes.
Also by the time orbital bombers try to have its way with it, you’d have to deal with the far more powerful San Diego-class. @KerlonceauxIndustries

Kudos to you.
