Holy shit, we just went all blitzkrieg on Capia! O.O

Nice work gents, now lets focus on bringing the Morovians to their knees, considerign we sunk the near-entirity of the capian fleet via airpower, I think those Morovians will think twice.

EDIT: UR, Helicopter production should wait until we've got ones that are better than anything that we have. I'd rather not sacrifice production of our Zephyrs for them.

[tryrar]

....Goddamnit, we have several pretty good proposals already, WAAAY more than what I can vote for(and want to vote for). I'm forced to prioritize with this Criteria:

1)Modernizing our tanks
2)Attempt to bring parity with our surface ships(easier now that most of the Capian navy is at the bottom of the ocean). This includes sonar upgrades and better cruisers
3)I'm liking that gun brood came up with better than the 240mm. A smaller gun that has at least parity with our 160mms means more can be fit onto a ship(and on smaller ships), and is a nice compromise between the HVG-80 and the 160mm(meaning we can probably forgo 80mms entirely except for AA)
4)Tar, you think you'll get enough votes for your tank without me? I'm torn between keeping Badger relevant by converting it to a TD, and saving this last vote for something else that might come along

[Taricus]

I reckon I could Tryrar.

[tryrar]

Cool, since we'd actually gotten a good compromise that was halfway reasonable, I'd like it to go through

[Brood]

Well the 80mm lacks the power for heavy ships but the 160 still penetrates reliably, so the idea is a gun that has a higer rate of fire then the 160mm while maintaining or surpassing it's power, once it's done I have 2 new ships in mind for the next turn to take advantage of it.

I'm still voting for his tank at the moment, for now it's 2nd place on my list of potential, beneath my new cannon because land based we are doing well sea based we're basically stuck staying near the coast because our deep sea fleet is to weak.

I would like to see a 240mm cannon as well for ships, something that can be used on medium class ships for long range power since the 320mm has to much kick.

Oh and this is Ukrainians project A.
A. Retool half of 1 zephyr factory to helicopters and half to transport planes, than expand halves to full factories. (Logistics are important, we'll retool the second factory, once we produce more modern fighters)

He didn't put phasing out the older models from frontline duties in unless I totally missed it.

Remember:

The Capian navy most likely has one recently constructed Cruisers left with one more under construction and a hand full of other ships. They no longer outweigh your fleet, but may still pose a threat.

As for the tank, I reckon I'll vote for it, too, as a heavy tank and by no means completely replacing the K-1.

[tryrar]

A little farther down, he put in strategy plan Alpha that said basically the same thing. I quote:

Alpha:
Suggest  government to put remaining feathers and wolverines on secondary roles, like supplying, ASW patrols (and swarming single surface ships) , training aircrafts for newbie pilots as those aircrafts are obsolete for intended uses and we need to save pilots from stupid deaths

[Taricus]

Hmm... Think now is the time to start designing our own aircraft carriers? They'll only be small escort carriers, but we can build them.

EDIT: Nevermind, we'd need a larger dockyard for them.

[Brood]

Ahhhh ok I missed that 1.

[tryrar]

Remember:

The Capian navy most likely has one recently constructed Cruisers left with one more under construction and a hand full of other ships. They no longer outweigh your fleet, but may still pose a threat.

Exactly why I'm trying to design a pocket battlecruiser able to handle the recoil of 2 320mm guns.

Well, tar, we'd probably need a little more displacement for that(we only have a yard capable of 4000 tons ATM, until and unless Brood's proposal to double that goes through)

[Brood]

It will I hope, we need bigger ships.

[Ukrainian Ranger]

9: Design a 120mm ship based cannon with high velocity to at minamum match the 160mm cannon and if possible surpass it also add an auto loader system built into it to enable the best possible rate of fire. Focus on velocity and accuracy.

I think reverse engineering 100mm Capian gun is a way faster solution for a new gun. Remember Capia is ahead of us, why not steal their design, while improving it a bit? 100mm is a good weapon for arming lighter frigates and torpedo focused destroyers

EDIT: UR, Helicopter production should wait until we've got ones that are better than anything that we have. I'd rather not sacrifice production of our Zephyrs for them.

Well, half of zephyr production. We'll produce 60 something-less Zephyrs for that turn, that's less than 1\6 of our current Zephyr numbers. Shouldn't influence our war in the air much. But new transport planes and helicopters will aid our logistics considerably
And those helicopters are great for suppling we have nothing better.

Hmm... Think now is the time to start designing our own aircraft carriers? They'll only be small escort carriers, but we can build them.

Nope, no real benefit for the naval war like that. And too likely to get sunk
But I am a bit biased, doubt that I will give a single vote to naval projects

[Brood]

I'm designing it to be better then the 100mm they have, I don't like the idea of just reusing enemy designs for our advancements.

[tryrar]

I actually wouldn't be against building something along the lines of a carrier testbed(something that'll only actually fight in an utterly dire emergency, like the world ending) for testing and developing carrier technologies and tactics so that it wouldn't just get sunk first time out(we'd also need to develop carrier aircraft for it)

Well brood, then rewrite it to say you want it better than the capian 100mm, which is definately better that our outdated 160mms(or at least has parity with it)

[Taricus]

Well, the helicopters are an unproven design, not to mention the planes are faster and carry more cargo. We should retool specifically for the planes. The helicopters can wait until a post-war scenario is achieved, in preparation for the next one.

And yeah, we'd also need to develop aircraft for the carrier too. But...

You guys support a test uranium reactor being built?
