Nice ships, looking good. Also like the Strykers MGS.
The M60s are visible, are these for training?
I do like the task force.

[MechCommander]

The colours seen on the Outboard Islands M60s are their actual military Colours, They never use Camouflage at all for their Army. This training is to help get prepared for any future war against the EE.

[MechCommander]

With a extensive Forest Fire Situation Across NC more Firefighting support from the other POP nations is needed to assist the local Firefighters to Combat these fires.

POP Post War reforms
another topic of discussion is how to best secure the loyalty of non POP nations during any coalition operations aginest the EE, as the sudden retreat of the ROD task force in Aleppo Syria was somewhat...Inconvenient, for the POP forces who had to face the EE occupiers in the city alone.

Mech,

We discussed this before, you will never be able to get loyalty from your allies.. They are allies, not subjugated people or vassal states. Nor are you a dominate World power. Allies are just that Allies. They are to a greater or lessor degrees, equals. The best you can hope for is respect and mutual desire to complete a common goal.

You lead your country like a third world dictator that has no regard or concern for the well being of your troops. You order them into battle with flawed tactics that are equivalent to leading a farm animal to the butcher. Your "allies", which are based on western doctrine and values, are not going to sit back and follow your orders. You need to earn there respect and show that you have the ability to command troops in the field. You are getting better, but you have a long way to go.

An idea, use M46 Pattons instead of the M26. Straighten those barrels. Consider using in T.D. role. It won’t cost you anything….

They where like this when I got them from that lot years ago.

[chrisswim]

Ok…1. the M46 is identical to the M26, essentially.
2. Tweezers or light pliers to straighten the barrels. Then paint the barrels or the vehicles.
3. Use in tank destroyer role, local fire support for infantry, or use as display at the main gate for your bases/forts.

Or don’t do anything.

RCAF New Fighter competition.

The Saab Grippen has dropped out of the competition due to the Skeldar UAV Incident which killed that program years ago.

Currently only the F-21 and Super Hornet remains.

[chrisswim]

Has NC considered F-16 Block 70?

[MechCommander]

Has NC considered F-16 Block 70?

That's what the F-21 is a variant of the F-16 Block 70 with systems similar to the F-35.
