Bacharth Posted February 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) Norsvean Military Factbook Norsvean Hæren Norsvea is now a militaristic nation. After the aftermath of the great war, Erik Betrakte decided it was no use staying unsafe. A weapons company based in Trøndheim, Jensen Arms, produces most of the weapons for the Hæren. The main rifle is the Jensen A3. The standard issue infantry machine gun is the Jensen LM66. Sidearms used are the Jensen P231 and MP4140. The standard sniper rifle is the Jensen LRIAR. The infantry in the army is highly trained in Guerilla and most unconventional warfare. That does not mean that the army cannot perform simple conventional tactics. The army is also well versed in many european languages, such as French, English, Spanish, Nordlandic, German, and Italian. The Hæren also utilizes some armored fighting vehicles, or AFVs. The Hohlman motors Wolverine is the main battle tank of Norsvea. Hohlman has also produced the Husky 2, Viper, and Elephant. Kristiansand Motors Co. has produced the Ar55 for the Hæren. Norsvean Luftforsvaret The Luftforsvaret is divided into two main groups: Air Superiority and Bombing, as is most air forces. The air superiority force, mostly prodced by Kristiansand Air Technologies, consists of the ASF-39, and the ASF-42. The fighter craft used as an escort is the Saab JAS-39 Gripen. The NLF also employs the GS-4, GS-5, and the SS-1 as air to ground attack craft. The NLF also employs the American B-52 and C-17 Globemaster III for airlift and large bombing. Norsvean Sjøforsvaret Norsvea has only recently built a navy, using the Harnosand, Drammen, and Bergen Naval Bases. The navy is mainly used as protection for sea transport, and is not the main concern of the Norsvean Militær command. So far, the navy is divided into two commands, the Baltic Command, at Harnösand, and the North Sea Command, at Bergen. Bergen Main Naval Base - North Sea Command NSF Göteborg - Göteborg Class Corvette NSF Kristiansand - Kristiansand Class Missile Cruiser NSF Bergen - Bergen Class Fast Attack Cruiser NSF Drammen - Göteborg Class Corvette NSF Sandnessjøen - Alesund Class Frigate Harnosand Naval Base - Baltic Task Command NSF Reise - Göteborg Class Corvette NSF Umea - Kristiansand Class Missile Cruiser NSF Stockholm - Stockholm Class Anti-Air Frigate NSF Grønnheim - Stockholm Class Anti-Air Frigate NSF Gavle - Bergen Class Fast Attack Cruiser NSF Uppsala - Göteborg Class Corvette Edited April 7, 2009 by VinceSixx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
