I'm just waiting for my df to go up but in the meantime I'll write the specifications for the weaponry

Cermiersian war doctrine

Cermiersia believes in a doctrine of armoires warfare and believes that a tank offensive is the most efficient way to rapidly redeploy and roll over enemy forces.

When the nation needed new artillery as it has long advanced past its old ones Egnar jumped on it to change an old french artillery piece and make it much larger than any other piece, this had the effect of making the gun wholly unreliable in terms of military tactics and warfare as it often blew its own face of after repeated use. However when it wasn't it indeed had a bigger blast and larger range than any other field gun was the standard for the cermiersian army during Egnar's reign and will probably continue to be important in the army.

The cermiersian Jebina artillery piece was far outdated for use in a modern warfare and needed to be updated to fit at least melenial era standards. The solution was the creation of a mobile howitzer peice which could keep up with an infantry assault while also fighting from a far. The solution was the Nerbierson Self propelled artillery, a mobile howitzer piece which drove even faster than the main infantry assault while supporting it with bombardment. The hull itself moves fast in terms of weapons of its era and can easily move throughout the nation reigning artillery upon unlucky foes. The SPA also features a machine gun for infantry support as well as defending against flanks of the frontline. The weapon does have the issue of often recoiling into itself because the artillery piece wasn’t meant for being inside the hull but overall the Cermiersian government seems it acceptable as part of a mechanized offensive and it is an all-around monster at dealing with infantry.

The artillery piece used in the Neberison SPA can be taken of and used as a stand alone piece. It is often used in replacement of the ww1 era artillery piece that was the cermiersian standard at the time. Although it has less range than the old artillery it much makes up for it in an improvement in firepower and fire rate. The artillery is mainly meant to serve as a cannon and thus isnt as good at being stand alone. The artillery tip often overheats to an extent that it becomes ruined when rapid firing out of it. It was also not meant to take on such heavy ammunition so recoil is enormous. However the artillery rapid fire is extremely lethal, albiet with the side effect of having a confusing mechanism were you load from the top instead of the side when rapid firing. Under sustained fire it works normally though. It is often known for moving its tracks multiple inches while firing continuously or with a burst. Overall though the firepower makes up for it massively.

Learning of the lesions of the invasion wars Cermiersia needed a vehicle that could reach from the top ends to the bottom ends of Cermiersia in record time while also providing the armor needed to support its offensive. After mouths of deliberation a new armored vehicle was created known as the Jeskau, named for its man inventor Nimia Jeskau, the weapon could race across the Cermiersian forests while giving its transported soldiers some protection from small arms fire. It also uses the new modern weapons such as a heavy portable armament along with a heavy machine gun for dealing with ambush raids without needing heavy to transport artillery of a begone era. The Cermiersian government only plans to produce a small amount for now as they want to maximize its consistency over its quantity. However they hope it can still serve Cermiersia well as armored support as well as transportation. The insides are also detachable to protect from higher-tech anti-armoured weaponry.

Cermerisa never wanted to ever create anything of a large tank force. Most of cermiesia was covered in vast forests and mountains which cannot be transversed by vehicle. Another thing was that foreign imperialists where always bound to have much better tanks than cermiersia by virtue of technologically superiority. However as the cermiersian army began to grow into a formidable force the cermiersian high command began to rethink their opinion of matters such as air and tank warfare. Cermiersia itself already had armoured vehicles in the form of SPAs and armoured infantry transports however they were used only to support infantry. Cermiersia began developing its first tank in early 505 and took increasing interest into 3rd generation tanks. Due to this cermiersia began looking at ideas for a 3rd generation tank which could serve cermiersia well. The result was a Spirini Main battle tank, a main battle tank which was to defend and support cermiersian armoured vehicles. The tank has two armaments, one of which is a massive 130mm auto cannon which can fire HEAT projectiles in order to disable enemy armour. The Secondary armament is a Malphine Machine gun designed by a keuymian company, a nation that is one of cermiersias closest allies, and was shown to cermiersia in exchange for return showing various technological advances. The machine gun helps to clean up infantry in the area and can also shoot through weak building materials.

The cermier government wanted a light vehicle for travel into areas with a lot of small arms fire in case of a fire-fight against rebels and entrenched enemy troops. Thus the LLMC (Colloquial: Ligmca) was designed in order to accomplish that task. Needing for it to also have effective speed in order to get to a location faster, the LLMC was designed for high speed travel. However the way this was accomplished was by condensing fuel and making it dense, thus when going on high speeds their is a higher risk for vehicle explosion. Despite this most of the time when going at its designed speed the Car manages to preform its task effectively without much issue, the only time it would happen is if it went its max speed. Extra armour was also added so that only the engine burns up and the soldiers inside have a chance of escaping if they survive the crash. The Ligmca also features an arament with support which allows it to be fired from with the vehicle so risk of being shot is as high as it would be. Generally the Vehicle is expected to be produced in huge numbers due to Cermier strategists generally liking the idea of staying on the ground on foot or on wheels rather than in the air or on the water.

Most cermiersian equipment is outdated and has not been world-class sense the great war. Cermiersian military scientists were tasked with creating a new gun which could better serve the cermiersian army in the modern day while being a general weapon for small range. The solution was the close range Kelif close range machine gun, a modern smg. While the army has yet to work on a universal assault rifle the smg can help cover the close range portion of warfire in order to back up old K98K rifles still in use (will be until they are replaced by a universal assault rifle). These smgs are great in combination with armoured transports to provide fast and quick rapid fire and deployment across the cemerisian countryside. Although they face the glaring issue of short range warfare. The goal of the weapon is to be consistent in close range combat like the ones during the kidnapping attacks on the palace in order to overcome enemy soldiers. The weapon is already in cermiersian mass production and has plans to be issued to shock troopers throughout the cermiersian army as to surprise the enemy in ambush assaults.

The k98k rifle was an old thing in a modern world. Using it was like using a cannon vrs. modern artillery. Its replacement was long overdo by this point. Cermiersian high command personally authorized a team of men commanded by Nafua Mizzoral to invent a new type of rifle to replace it. This specifically required a weapon that could be effective at both long range while having some close range capability to not leave men completely exposed when being pushed. The solution was an assault rifle, the first one used by the cermiersian army. The rifle had enough range to not leave soldiers stranded in the middle of a field without a way to fight back against a long range enemy. The rifle also has the capacity to spray a massive array of bullets in a short burst. This was also backed up by a bipod and 3x scope for true long range attacks. The rifle soon was implimented as the standard for the cermiersian armed forces and the k89k will slowly be phased out of the cerimersian armed forces.

Cermiersia had long been searching for a heavier weapon which layed down is able to fire belt upon belt against unsuspecting targets. However most machine guns had a tendency to be very heavy and not as usable in a quick mobile war. However cermiersian engineers attempted to overcome this downfall by creating a hybrid gun which can be used as an assault rifle or an Lmg. Even in its LMG form the gun is also still lighter and fires faster than more heavy Lmgs at the time. The guns main use however is to simply fire at enemies in an open area as opposed to house to house mobile warfare. Despite this it manages to excel at both (mostly by firing through the building material) and makes a decent armament for troops despite the weight of it and its ammunition. Although even with this the gun has its complaints from it being hard to aim down sights and move it fast.

Cermiersian police forces wanted a small firearm which could be hidden but was still quite powerful for use within the intelligence agency and standard police force. The solution was the part-smg part-pistol Marverime named after one of the queens of keuymia. The gun has an extremely high fire rate along with some high calibre ammunition causing it to have a lot of recoil with the gun which has been sited as a major problem. Due to this the gun has a recoil eliminator in order to to help eliviate this but this does not entirely solve the problem. The gun also has problems with exploding if used to much due to the wearing down of the recoil mechanism, however this part of the gun is easily replaceable and the government keeps a stockpile for repair of that part of the gun so it is not a common worry. The gun is common in use within police forces in cermiersia and is also common in terrorist organizations due to its compact design allowing for easy transport and use. The military of cermiersia uses it in limited cases however not very often.

The cermier military was in need of a long range rifle which could shoot for quite a distance while also being able to carried by a single person. Thus the Phinax DMR was born. This rifle is able to shoot for long distances without needing to be carried by two people like the Naufa heavy rifle. The rifle is semi automatic and does have some slight recoil problems from its high bullet power and long stroke action however in good hands the gun can be lethal.

Seemingly out of nowhere the military requested that scientists create an anti material rifle. This was extremely unsual as such weapons were usally to heavy to be used on people and were only useful against enemy structures, but it was requested that one be available for the army. Thus a team under top cermier military engineer and scientist Nafua Mizzoral got the deed and began designing the gun. Wanting it to be spectacular and large, the gun was supersized beyond what was originally intended and thus it became extremely heavy and the high calibers led to horrific recoil from the gun. Against humans it also seemed slow to reload and position as it weighed almost the weight of an adult human. However with a two person team the gun can be used to great effect against resting aircraft as communications lines. This is even more useful for intelligence, although the two person team is a drawback it could possible down a transportation system that is non-air and possibly even kill any important targets on that machine. The scope also helps two as with the gun being stationary it does not need many adjustments and can thus lay perfectly still.

In the modern world warfare had become heavily dependent on air power in order to defeat enemies. Cermiersian military designers took this to note and thought it would be extremely dangerous to allow enemies to have complete and utter power over cermiersian airspace. They decided on an anti-aircraft missile called the Shuta areal defence system. This missle could be either sent at a visible aircraft in order to destroy it using infrared rays or be commanded directly with radar in order to better help it track down the opponent which has some basic cloaking system. The missile can also be used to hit a stationary open target such as a helicopter dropping down units or a war blimp. The missle is designed for both land and naval launches although cermiersia does not yet have a naval fleet. Their are already plans to make a more lethal warhead which is faster to replace it.

Cermiersia's continued work into anti-aircraft systems led to the increased interest of having a handheld missile launcher. The idea was that in the case of war anti-aircraft systems can easily be hammered to the ground however a hand held device could be more hidden and could last longer. The cermiersian government quickly tasked Jeskau and his research team with designing it. A young women in that research team known as Calva figured out that you could put two systems within the rocket to diswade flares. With this the team decided to engineer this into the rocket in order to increase its remediability. Although it had some problems with the propulsion which increased delays on the system eventually it managed to reach the cermiersian military. The weapon soon became a general part of the cermiersian military and soon began handing them out to most divisions in it. It soon became a general part of the cermiersian army and every new division is assigned a small stockpile of them and their ammunition in order to help provide air cover.

The Hussan cavalry wanted to be upgraded into an air cavalry unit in order to improve the speed of transport and to provide more air coverage to a rather barren military when it comes to air firepower. Unfortunately cermiersia lacked any helicopters as cermiersia referred to stay on the ground and to fight a long and lengthy resistance war until the enemy gave up. Despite this the unexpected growth of the cermiersian military caused many to believe that it could defend its airspace and didn't have to fight long drawn out wars, especially with weaker and less developed nations. So cermiersia put into the works a transport multi-purpose helicopter which can be used to both transport soldiers and to fight ships as well as a fighter aircraft to defend them. The fighter aircraft known as the Talahlf became the nation's first aircraft whos job was the attack enemies. Although its use is air superiority the planes are extremely hard to make and are thus used timidly and mainly intercept bombers as opposed to controlling the skies. The plane is also capable of bombing runs if the situation requires so it can be equiped with quarter ton bombs in order to destroy enemy ships and industry.

So cermiersia put into the works a transport multi-purpose helicopter which can be used to both transport soldiers and to fight ships as well as a fighter aircraft to defend them. The helicopter known officially as the bastion but nicknamed the Hussan eagle is a multi-purpose helicopter which can quickly redeploy up to 30 cramped soldiers into a fire-fight and allow them to get into the fight many times faster than they would by car. The aircraft can also hoist a Shuta missle in order to fight other aircraft however it does not contain any major integrated combat systems.

With a growing force of helicopters in cermiersia the hussans wanted yet another helicopter that instead of transportation was made purely for attack and defence. The people who made the Talahlf fighter organized into a new state-owned company called Talahlf Aircraft and began construction on the project. They took examinations from different missiles and attack helicopters what were tested out in the field and use that to create what they called a guard aircraft which could protect its passengers from enemy ground units as well as enemy anti-tank weapons. The goal of the helicopter is to escort the transport helicopters from one location to another keeping them safe from enemy fire. They use jammers in order to block enemy anti-aircraft while also having radar systems in order to scan out the local region. Their heavy guns can anniholate lightly armoured enemy positions firing back on them while the heavy missles can douse any heavily armoured one in HEAT bombs.
