Will we ever get a post about the different aircraft of the US militsry in this series I woukd love to have a visual of what they look like tho I know that's a bunch of work
Thank you for reminding me i have to update my missile numbering in this since i've tweaked things!
ESSM-MR has the same range as an SM-2 (~100 nmi), is quad-packable, and using a multi-mode seeker (kinda like ESSM Block 2, but better—potentially something derived from the JTAM's seeker or a common advanced multi-mode seeker shared/derived from an upgraded SM-6)
I was watching Battle Order's video again the other day, and I remember when we discussed the make-up of the 12th Joint Division when it was originally in Taiwan during the First Sino-American War. I have a few questions about it, and the 24th MDC.
Does the 12th Taiwan Defense Command have a similar makeup to the 24th Marianas Defense Command?
A theater interdiction brigade/"coastal artillery bde" with HIMARS/LRASM/BGM-200
A Forward ADA Bde w/2 IFPC Btns & 1 HIMADS Btn
A "theater" ADA Bde w/Patriot/THAAD/HIMADS/PALLAS
Or, does it maintain the heavier armor/attack helo heavy formations the 12th Joint Division had, considering it was likely going to brawl with PLA tanks and mechanized infantry, instead of airborne troops.
Secondly, was there a USMC presence on Taiwan, like there was in the Marianas ? If so, what did that look like ?
My third question is, where do the HIMAGs pieces and Stryker Bulldogs etc. come in in the Marianas/TO&E ? I don't recall anyone but the USMC having a tube artillery, or a "mechanized" force from Battle Order's video.
My fourth question, is about the resurrection of Marine Defense Battalions - I saw that a battery of the the "51st Defense Battalion" existed on Saipan. When did the old Defense Battalions get re-stood-up ? And what was their average composition ?
My fifth and final question, thank you for bearing with me lol, is - do you have, or intend to post a TO&E for the battalions of the US Army during the 2nd Sino ? I'd love to know how they were organized and what, and how much of each piece of equipment they possessed.
Oh, it's beautiful. Thank you for pushing through the math to get this one done.
As someone attempting to write sci-fi aerial combat at a similar level of detail I appreciate this immensely, I think it might be the best in the genre I've ever seen.

WE'RE SO BACK BOYS AND GIRLS
I have a few questions about the RIM-198/SM-8 - it's a replacement for the SM-2 based off the RIM-162 ESSM.
So first and foremost, is - what is the range of the SM-8
The second, is - is it quad-packable like the ESSM ? (So four SM-8s could be carried for the price of one, old SM-2)
The third, is - does it have active radar homing all the way ?

Hey Recon,
I was watching Battle Order's video again the other day, and I remember when we discussed the make-up of the 12th Joint Division when it was originally in Taiwan during the First Sino-American War. I have a few questions about it, and the 24th MDC.
Does the 12th Taiwan Defense Command have a similar makeup to the 24th Marianas Defense Command?
I.E.
1 Infantry Bde w/3 Battalions & 1 Cavalry Troop in Razorbacks
A theater interdiction brigade/"coastal artillery bde" with HIMARS/LRASM/BGM-200
A Forward ADA Bde w/2 IFPC Btns & 1 HIMADS Btn
A "theater" ADA Bde w/Patriot/THAAD/HIMADS/PALLAS

this rules
thank you!
they've been getting better and better mate
These raptors definitely gave 'em an air show
Nice shit. What’s the sentinel? Is it like the Reagan.
its basically this design https://www.navalnews.com/event-news/sea-air-space-2024/2024/04/leidos-concept-turns-oil-rigs-into-mobile-missile-defense-and-supply-bases/
The Raptor achieves its interception dreams. That was excellent.

Just a few questions
1. Did the Chinese expect resistance?
2. Did the Russians do anything during second sino
3. Do we have any aces during second sino?
4. Does the sentinel survive?
Wait, Australia become a Commonwealth Republic a.la India or Pakistan? Interesting
