Hey everyone I am back for another bonus chapter info dump. well I figured out that school has given me the middle finger and given me a shit load of hw to do over this semester and to add insult to injury I am going to be a college student for longer than I initially thought I would. anyway to answer ghost's question last chapter yes Minna and Mio outrank the COD guys but they are following Sandman and Price's orders regardless because ground combat is not their expertise. remember the witches are essentially fighter pilots even though they do have magic making them like super soldiers to most people they don't really have a good sense of ground combat tactics so they have deferred to the COD guys for leadership since that is their forte. however now that the Neuroi have arrived the 501st will be officially reformed and Minna will be back in command of her girls in combat, well as soon as they get their striker units back anyway. also since Mason and Reznov sacrificed themselves and opened portals to the witches world they other Joint Fighter Wings (with a big focus on the 502nd and 504th) will be in the COD world to assist the guys and gals fighting off the Neuroi. hmmm oh lastly as shown with Isabella she is a witch who was born in the COD world so it is quite possible that their is others in the COD verse as well XD shit I cant remember if there was anything else anyone asked me well if I forgot something someone asked me either PM me or if you are a guest plz create an account and then PM me lol its free people what do you have to loose XD anyway so here is my little CIA doc for people enjoy.
CIA Document #2
The United States Joint Strike Force
Welcome back commander. Today we have forwarded you a document regarding the unit organization and equipment utilized by the newest branch of the America military, the Joint Strike Force or JSF for short. Additionally this document will also discuss the proposition made by Brigadier General Gregory Irons of the United States Army regarding an additional service branch called the United States Space Corps (USSC for short). Now let us begin shall we?
Riflemen
The Joint Strike Force's riflemen will be drawn from the ranks of the most elite soldiers in the American Military. Navy SEALs, Delta Force, Force Recon, Green Berets, Air Force Special Rescue units as well as U.S. Army Ranges; these soldiers will be the best of the best in their respective organizations each with a unique skill being brought to the table. We plan to equip these soldiers with the latest in war fighting technology such as the new Future Force Warrior Network system for ease of communication and control; this system gives each and every JSF operator satellite uplink capabilities, Blue Force Tracking, Electronic Warfare capabilities and an onboard IFF to prevent friendly fire incidents. Additionally Doctor Eva Brehmer of the CIA's Special Development Team has developed a new type of armor to be worn by these soldiers. She calls it Reactive Matrix Armor (or RMA suit for short); it is an all encompassing suit of a prototype light weight material that on its own is more flexible and durable than Kevlar; but where the Reactive Matrix Armor really shines is that each suit of armor is lined with self repairing nano-bots that can repair any damage sustained by the soldier in the field. Current tests in the lab have proven that the Reactive Matrix Armor is capable of stopping a direct hit from a 0.50cal BMG round and should in theory be able to absorb a laser hit from a Neuroi laser beam. RMA suits are also in an emergency able to seal themselves up in case of a chemical or biological weapons attack and the helmet given to a JSF soldier has a built in air filtration system to allow the soldier to breathe without worrying about exposure. Lastly an RMA suit has limited life support abilities for soldiers who have been wounded. An onboard heart monitor along with the ability to dispense small amounts of bio-foam should be able to stop the bleeding as well as provide anesthetic to the soldier in question. Each rifleman will have the choice to pick his own preferred weapon that they choose is necessary for the mission. Currently we are also working on a new prototype grenade referred to as an M70 which uses micro fusion technology to create intense heat and shockwaves after detonation, our current tests say they are 300% more effective than the current M67 Fragmentation Grenade.
Combat Engineers
While riflemen might represent the frontline fighters of the JSF they do not have the firepower to deal with enemy armored vehicles. That is where the Combat Engineers come in; equipped with a lighter suit of Reactive Matrix Armor and a powered exoskeleton based on the Handyman prototype allows the Combat Engineers to carry more equipment and heavy weapons onto the field. Combat Engineers will be usually equipped with carbines, SMGs, and Shotguns for self defense against infantry while they will each be carrying two AT5 antitank rockets to destroy either Neuroi units are enemy armor in the field. The AT5 is a disposable laser guided rocket linked up to the built in laser designator in the Engineers helmet. The rocket is loaded with a two stage tandem warhead charge for both destroying bunkers and tanks; current testing shows that only the most modern and heavily armored tanks can survive a direct hit from one of these weapons. Using the Exoskeleton the Combat Engineers can deploy two unique squad support weapons onto the field. The first is the M268 Micro-gun a three barreled belt fed Gatling style gun that can fire 6.8mm rounds at the rate of three thousand rounds a minute. The M268 is linked to the Engineer's onboard laser designator and has a limited tracking ability so the soldier can put rounds on target easier. The M268 is fed ammo from a 1000 round ammo backpack mounted on the back of the Engineer and can be loaded with either armor piercing, incendiary, or explosive rounds. The second support weapon the Engineer can bring to the field is called the MK.20 automatic grenade launcher. This weapon is a 25mm automatic grenade launch fed from a backpack mounted ammo container; the MK.20 fires at a rate of 120 rounds a minute and the soldier can set the grenades to either detonate on impact or airburst if necessary. The aiming is much the same as the M268 and we believe that the engineers will be able to maintain reasonable accuracy with this weapon. The Combat Engineers will also be given access to Lance and Javelin missiles for further destructive firepower. Lastly the engineers will have access to automated mines, traps and drones for defensive operations.
Scout Snipers
Lastly for infantry we will deploy with the JSF elite Scout Snipers. They will be given the most advanced sniping equipment available today along with the new active camouflage systems for stealthy infiltration. These Snipers will be used to infiltrate enemy lines and assassinate key enemy leaders. We will deploy at least ten per battalion of JSF soldiers.
C1A5 Archon Command Vehicle
The C1A5 is a mobile command center mounted on two treads. The vehicle is capable of carrying out all of the operations that a traditional command center can accomplish while being mobile and better protected. The Archon will be able to link with nearby satellites and control drones from the ground. If necessary the JSF commander in an Archon will be able to call down an ODIN strike provide a satellite is in range. Each battalion of the JSF will have one Archon command vehicle to lead the troops into battle as needed.
Unit Organization
The JSF will be split into six different types of unit builds each with their own unique strengths and weaknesses.
First there are the Special Operations battalions; theses battalions will be made up of twelve platoons of riflemen and six platoons of combat engineers with two M5A2 tank platoons and two LAV-52 platoons for support. The purpose of these battalions is to provide the United States with a rapid surgical strike capability into hostile territories. The individual members of these battalions will be handpicked for their stealth and infiltration skills. These soldiers will be sent into hostile situations to deal with delicate situations such as hostage rescue and recon missions behind enemy lines.
Secondly there are the airborne battalions. These battalions are responsible for rapid aerial attacks against enemy strong points using a variety of gunships and transport helicopters to fly them into battle. Ten flights of four AH-72s and six AV-44 VTOL Warships will cover the ten riflemen platoons and two engineer platoons as they insert into the target area. For ground support one platoon of M5A2s and two platoons of M118 Fastbacks will provide armor support for the riflemen and engineers.
Thirdly there are the armored battalions. The armored battalions will be given the most tanks and armored vehicles to carry out their missions. The battalion roster will include one flight of AH-72s and two V-44 VTOLs to fly in the two platoons of riflemen and one engineer platoon. The bulk of these battalions strength will be in the ten platoons of M5A2 tanks, ten platoons of M118 Fastback IFVs, eight platoons of LAV-52s, and five platoons of M320 Spartan artillery vehicles. These units will be used to both hold defensive positions as well as lead direct assaults against either human or Neuroi opponents.
Next there are the Mechanized Battalions. These units will be made up of ten platoons of M118s and six platoons of LAV-52s with two platoons of M5A2s for support. They will also have ten platoons of engineers and six platoons of riflemen. These platoons will work directly alongside Armored Battalions to secure and hold the newly captured territory.
Then there are Tactical Battalions which specialize in defense operations. They will be mostly made up of units of engineers and artillery units for holding territory along the various defensive positions along the southern border of the United States. These battalions will mostly be held in the reserve until they are needed on the frontlines away from American territory.
Finally there are the Assault Battalions which are mobile sea based units meant to be a jack of all trades unit. They will be given eight platoons of riflemen and four platoons of engineers for infantry support. For air support they will have four flights of AH-72s, four AV-44s and at least one super carrier to provide fixed wing support against enemy fast movers. For armor these battalions will have four M5A2 platoons, four M118 platoons, six LAV-52 platoons, and four M320 platoons. These battalions will be meant to be sent overseas on long voyages to carry out missions against the Neuroi or human enemies outside of North America. Each Assault Battalion will be centered around one of the Obama class Fast Attack Carriers and one Nimitz or Gerald R. Ford class super carrier. These battalions will be the tip of America's spear from here on out.
Supporting units
Each JSF battalion will be accompanied by at least two battalions of conventional troops from either the USMC or the United States Army. They will be conventional units that are geared for the same type of missions that the JSF battalions they are stationed with are geared toward. These conventional units will provide QRF in case of an emergency for the JSF.
United States Space Corps
General Irons of the United States Army has long been lobbying to create a space based branch of the US military, "A quick moving scalpel and sword to eliminate threats anywhere in the world". General Irons suggests that we use existing space technology to create rapid re-entry vehicles that can deploy an individual soldier from orbit. After careful consideration POTUS has authorized a trial unit of one division to be formed and to carry out training operations. The current plan is for the individual soldiers of the Space Corps to be each equipped with a suit of powered armor referred to as a "Mechanically Assisted Combat Suit" or MACS this environmentally sealed suit can boost a soldier's carrying capacity and endurance while offering him the same level of protection that a standard Kevlar vest provides. Additionally General Irons has forwarded some designs for a suit of powered armor more akin to a small MECH than armor. These two armor designs are referred to as Avenger and Intruder respectively. The Avenger suit was created with the mindset of giving a soldier overwhelming anti-infantry capabilities and mobility to tip the scales of an urban fight. This suit is equipped with a .50cal minigun mounted on the right shoulder, a 90mm mortar mounted on the rear left shoulder, a 40mm automatic shotgun and a flamethrower. For enhanced mobility a pair of plasma jet jump units are mounted on the back for limited flight capabilities. The Intruder armor design on the other hand was intended to turn a soldier into a walking tank. Built with thicker armored platting and given a 30mm chain gun on the right shoulder and a micro-missile launcher on the left shoulder it can make short work of light vehicles; while the handheld assault gun with five round 40mm grenade launcher gives the Intruder more than enough firepower to take out infantry. Finally for close combat the Intruder is given a meter long blade made from a prototype metal alloy that is sharper than anything else in existence. Both suits will be powered by two fusion battery cells that give each suit an operational time of two hours of sustained combat. We plan to resupply each unit of the Space Corps in the field via orbital landing craft which can either carry two companies of infantry or up to four M1 tanks. General Irons says that he can… ALERT CODE 991 activated! Neuroi have been sighted at multiple locations across the globe. The Winter Contingency has been activated, all available US Military Personnel report to designated locations… Neuroi hive detected over Berlin, designating as Hive Zero-Zero, warning Neuroi hive detected over Miami designating as Hive Zero-1 all forces in the southern United States standby to prepare for a counter attack!
