It has replaced the M3 in a majority of the front line units in the Wrea Military. The Wrea war machine is currently researching a semi-automatic rifle to replace the older bolt action rifles now in service. It will also contain a detachable box magazine containing no fewer than 10 rounds of ammunition. No prototypes of this weapon have been seen yet. [u][b]Machine guns[/b][/u] M4 Machine Gun is a 7.92x57mm Crew Served Machine gun. With bipod in place, this Machine gun serves the purpose of a Light Machine Gun as the center piece of a rifle squad. Mounted on a tripod, this system can be used as a General-Purpose Machine Gun at the platoon and company level. This gun is also used for aircraft and naval purposes. This gun uses an open bolt, recoil, rotating block operating system providing a rate of 800 – 900 rounds per minute. Its distinctive sound is similar to that of a buzz saw, which is its nickname given by the Gersan enemy who fight against the Wrea heathens. This gun has a muzzle velocity of 765 meters per second with an effective range out to 2,000 meters with a tripod and scope. A more reasonable range with iron sights is out to 800 or possibly 1,000 meters. Due to its high muzzle velocity, fired rounds can reach distances of 4700 meters. There is no guarantee of hitting anything over 2Km. This gun uses 50 or 250-round belts, 50-round drum or 75-round drum magazine. [i](Based on German MG34)[/i] [u][b]Anti-Tank Rifles[/b][/u] Model 70 Tank Hunting Rifle (ATR) is a 7.92x94mm cartridge employing a Falling block action. This is a single shot weapon that must be reloaded manually. This rifle weighs 25.5 Lbs and measures 1.6 meters in length. Its muzzle velocity is 1210 meters per second relying on kinetic energy to penetrate armor. The weapon is effective out to 300 yards to penetrate 1” of steel. Distances greater than that, it will fail. Armor thicknesses greater than that, it will fail. There is some in the weapons development circles who are considering designing and developing an anti-tank rocket or missile that can fired at infantry small arms ranges and immobilize or incapacitate armored fighting vehicles. No designs or tests of this weapon system exist at this time. [u][b]Other Weapons[/b][/u] FM-40 is a man portable flame thrower weighing 79 Lbs, capable of hitting targets out to 25 meters.

The Federation discovered aerial travel before the Gersan's did, meaning that they were able to put more research into developing a range of ships worthy of combat. They rule the skies, and they rule it with an iron fist. They are nicknamed as the Federation Aeiral Force, or the 'FAF'. [hider=WFF-12][img]http://www.avsim.com/pages/1210/FSAddon/Title.jpg[/img] [b][u]WFF-12[/u][/b] The 'Wrea Federation Fighter' has seen combat before during the Federation's own Civil War. When fighting the insurgency that threatened their own stability, the Military Command, under the watch of Fleet Admiral Johan Svoka. Fitted with built-in M4 Machine Guns, it provides firepower that, though it isn't as accurate as the Coalition's Fighter, uses quick bursts of power to tear through the wings and chassis of enemy opponents. They can travel at speeds of 99MPH, just reaching short of 100, because of their cockpit, meaning the pilot is less exposed. However, the cockpit does limit the view of the pilot. [/hider] [hider=WFB-07][img]https://www.michtoy.com/michtoy2013/products/RDN-055.jpg[/img] [b][u]WFB-07[/u][/b] Being the first to mass produce steam-planes, the Federation had more time to develop the series of 'Wrea Federation Bombers'. These bombers saw combat only at the end of the Civil War, where three versions were made. During their conquest across Valo, capturing smaller countries that weren't allied with the Coalition, these bombers were used in Shock-and-Awe Operations, where they would fly in massive formations dropping payloads of unquestionable amounts. As the Coalition were the only ones to also produce planes, they were relatively untouched, and before the declaration of war against the Coalition, no bombers had been shot down or destroyed. Whereas the Seventh model had not seen many configuration changes to the engines or power, their cockpit was also enlarged to give the pilots and crewmen more cover. Due to its size, it is possible to walk around in the cockpit, rather than being restricted to single seats. The bomber has the ability to hold a payload of 18 55kg GP-Bombs, as well as 3 175kg HD-Bombs. On either side of the cockpit capsule, there are two M4 Machine Guns for defence against fighter-engagements. There is space for two more machine guns outside of the cockpit, one on the rear and one on the front. These are dangerous positions, but are more accurate when firing. Its speed has decreased due to recent changes of the cockpit configuration, and can only reach up to 49MPH. It requires a minimal crew of 10 to command effectively.

They provide occupational support against ground and light-aerial vehicles. Used for covering convoys, they are destructive against infantry, but can be taken down with continuous firepower from Walkers, Artillery and explosive ordinances. They are equipped with four 75mm Cannons, two on the top and two on the underside, as well as a series of M4 Machine gun emplacements on the front and sides. They require a crew of 58 to operate at moderate levels and can travel at 45MPH. [/hider] [hider=HIFS-02][img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/54/72/10/547210f047b00ddc162fe6c1ea052f1f.jpg[/img] [b][u]HIFS-02[/u][/b] Being only the second model in the 'Heavy Infantry Fighting Ship' series developed by Hernswick Machinery Ltd., they are designed to be a more effective occupational patrol ship and ground-support than their smaller counterpart. What is noticeable about its design is it carries more armour plating, but consists of less cannons. Only carrying two 91mm Cannons, one on the top and one on the underside, it has the ability to drop 132kg Bomb payloads from its underside capsules. These are less common due to how new the design is, but are definitely a formidable force to avoid. They require a crew of 65 to operate at moderate levels and can travel at 34MPH. [/hider] [hider=SH-05][img]https://img.rcgroups.com/http://img15.nnm.me/1/0/9/9/6/b56be707b08828aa383beec1d30_prev.jpg?h=k7P7IpiMmhte-1K2cUILWg[/img] [b][u]SH-O5[/u][/b] Nicknamed the 'Ship Hunter', it actually holds the name of 'Simiens Heritage', for the designer passed away before the model was completed. This colossal aircraft only holds cannons facing forward, and is designed to inflict heavy damage against larger ships ahead through dangerous Gun-Runs. Packing six 84mm Cannons and twelve M4 machine guns, it can act as a CAS for the ground (However it is least effective there). They are designed to face ships head on and fire everything they have in as many runs as they can. Many of these are bound to be shot down, but they risk their own safety to weaken their opposing force. They have also been sighted trying to fight Sea-Naval vessels, but are less effective at the low-altitude fighting. They require a crew of 19 to operate and can travel at 63MPH. [/hider] [hider=WFBC-65][img]https://www.kunstnet.de/w3/23770/gross_der-nordhafen.jpg[/img] [b][u]WFBC-65[/u][/b] The battlecruiser of the FAF, these are designed to combat the Frigates of the Sky-Navy, and serve as the main attack force within the sky. Having the ability to fire in most directions, their size and strength means they can take a moderate beating before being destroyed. Within the giant balloon-shaped structure lie many 87mm cannons and Machine gun emplacements, allowing it to spread its concentration of fire in a 360 degree circumference. They require a crew of 143 to operate and travel at speeds of 41MPH. [/hider] [hider=WFHC-23][img]https://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/8/9/127535_md-Aircraft%20Carrier%2C%20Airship%2C%20Blimp%2C%20Drogue%2C%20Steampunk.jpg[/img] [b][u]WFHC-23[/u][/b] The 'Wrea Federation Heavy Cruiser' is designed to play a mid-line firing and battering ram for the larger ships. Supporting the battlecruisers, they are fitted with heavier 145mm cannons on the frontal face, and scatter only 68mm cannons on the sides. On the top, 34mm AA-Turrets are controlled by those who wish to defend this iconic battle machine. They require a crew of 175 to operate and can travel at speeds of 39MPH. [/hider] [hider=WFD-48][img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/5c/6f/16/5c6f16ed7f56addb73cfc28c9af531a4.jpg[/img] [b][u]WFD-48[/u][/b] This destroyer is the power of the FAF, providing the largest firepower from any rear-line craft available, excluding capital vessels. It's size is daunting, and the firepower is just as bad. Around six 175mm cannons are dotted on the top and sides for effective destruction against larger vessels. Many 54mm AA turrets are dotted across the ship, as well as another supporting batch of 103mm cannons for suppressive fire against larger ships. Many admirals admire this ships' capabilities and power, thus choosing it as their ideal vehicle. They require a crew of 276 to operate and can travel at speeds of 56MPH. [/hider] [hider=FAF-Vigilance][img]http://sf.co.ua/12/11/wallpaper-2410250.jpg[/img] [b][u]The FAF-Vigilance[/u][/b] Whereas the Gersa Coalition do not have a single capital vessel, the FAF rule the skies with their single and large design, thought to be twice the size of the Nachita-Class behemoth. It's actually 1.5x the scale of the Behemoth, but it still packs a lot of firepower. There are two of these ships, and only one is currently grounded until the in-service model is heavily damaged. They pack monstrous 254mm cannons all around the ship, around 45 AA guns along the top and sides and have heavy 123mm cannons on the underside to damage anything below. It requires a crew of 941 to operate and can be seen as one of the deadliest machines ever created by man themselves. Its speed is around 45MPH, but it is unknown due to the lack of information.
