IJN Yamato is arguably the most powerful battleship ever created. It is equipped with nine 460 mm guns in three turrets, the largest caliber ever fitted to a warship.·It had some of the thickest armor, a sophisticated fire control system, and over 150 anti-aircraft guns. Yamato was built as an apex battleship killer, and it took literally hundreds of US aircraft to overwhelm the air defenses and sink her at the very end of WW2.
German Bismarck became a legend during her very first operations when she sank the battlecruiser HMS Hood after only five salvos and damaged the Prince of Wales battleship. It took the entire Royal Navy Home Fleet to pursue, damage, surround and make a wreck of the lone Bismarck. Bismarck is equipped with eight 380 mm guns, known for their high power, accuracy and extremely good reload speed.
HMS Vanguard was the last battleship ever built, and was commissioned shortly after WW2 ended. Featuring 15 inch guns, decent speed and armor, it has fantastic air defenses and an air recon radar. It was also the British warship with Remote Power Control for her many guns, which meant that the aim of the guns could be controlled from within the armored fire control center.
Badger is the new, modern IFV developed to replace the ageing Ratel IFV in the South African army. The Badger’s turret features a 30 mm GI-30 automatic cannon that is capable of firing sabot, APFSDS and HEI rounds. This is all backed up by a laser rangefinder and thermal imagers, making precision shots at longer ranges easier. Badger is capable of reaching 100 km/h on roads and rough ground, allowing the crew to reach strong positions fast.
The Japanese F-2A fighter jet is an aircraft derived from the American F-16 and designed for the Japanese Self-Defense Forces. While maintaining basic aerodynamics, the aircraft received an enlarged wing utilizing composite materials, a reinforced fuselage and locally developed avionics, including an AESA radar and an integrated fire control system. The F-2A will receive ASM-1 and ASM-2 anti-ship missiles that are new to the game, as well as locally designed short-range AAM-3 anti-air missiles and medium-range AAM-4.
