What would be the standard issue weapons of your armed forces? For example, Astrachia:

>M16 platform standard issue for all branches
>All branches have their signature weapon
>Army uses FN SCAR Mk. 17
>Federal Marine Corps uses M16A4 (instead of A3 and A1)
>Navy uses the HK416
>Air force uses the SA80

There's more details though, I can elaborate if asked

I should have explained, that different weapons are not mandatory for soldiers to use, only available for their respective branches. Basically, everyone starts with M16 and M9, and when they complete basic training they get the opportunity to learn to use different weapoons. The more you accomplish in the military, the more weapons you can get your hands on.

Home Guard/Coast Guard: Licensed copy of Galil ACE 21 and 23 in 5.56, OD and FDE for Home Guard, Stainless, navy, and black for Coast Guard, all wearing night sights.

Air Guard: M6 Survival rifles, chambered 12ga. over .223, and Sig Sauer P226Rs for defense. Reserved for pilots and crews.

Expeditionary forces: Licensed Galil ACE 23 as standard, OD and FDE, wearing VCOG's. All soldiers equipped with P226Rs.

I should point out that in my mind, the expeditionary forces are borderline SF, and rarely deployed en masse. The majority of the armed forces would be composed of the Guard Branches, who don't go beyond the countries territory unless absolutely necessary.
>>
>>28644291
Logistics are not a problem, at least here in Astrachia. Since most of the rifles use NATO caliber cartridges, it's no problem having multiple weapon systems. Besides, the more weapons a soldier knows how to operate, the better.

Multiple different platforms for different branches etc

Army uses Colt CM901
Marines use CZ 2000
Reserves use AMP-69
Navy uses SU-16F
Air Forces use CAR-15
Camouflage is MTP for ground forces
Flight suits for Air Force
Navy has sort of a mix between a wetsuit and a BDU.
Good choices yeah?

What do you mean logistical nightmare? All guns have same caliber, every branch still uses the M16 platform, and these sigature weapons are not mandatory to use
>>
>>28644356
You realize there are supplies firearms need other than bullets and magazines, right? Having one common family of firearms means parts can be exchanged in the field. You're basically ensuring your armories have to stock double or more what they otherwise would have to. Not to mention having to have more and different factories, different acquisitions contracts, etc.

And what is the point of this?
>>
>>28644538
Not to mention armorers would need to be trained on all these firearms. You only have so much time and budget to train an armorer before sending him out in the field.

Do you even know what a wetsuit is? And you know most Navy guys don't actually swim in the water, right? They have boats for that.

Same with the air force. Why do non-aircrew need flight suits? Even the actual air crew only wear flight suits when they're actually flying the aircraft, because get this, flight suits are fucking hot and uncomfortable as fuck.

>>
>>28644007
>not your imagi-nation
>>
>>28644653
Well, the broken guns would get delivered to be fixed (or necessary parts would be brought to them). And i.e the SA80 would be better with paratroopers than M16, but M16 is better at "multi-role" combat

You are talking out of your ass. The US actually has some logistics problems with the m16 vs m4, much less completely different guns.

This is COD shitter bullshit logic
>>
>>28644707
The U.S maybe has some problems, but we here in Astrachia are more organized (I think). It's worked well enough so far
>>
>>28644692
So, the idea is to see how far the logistics train can stretch without actually providing a tangible benefit. I understand the idea of a "signature weapon" for all branches is appealing , and having troops well-rounded in terms of what weapons they can use is not a bad thing by any means, but how much benefit can there really be in fielding that many different rifles, especially versus the outright cost and extra strain on logistics?
>>
>>28644738
Shut the fuck up, you retarded roleplaying faggot
>>
>>28644738
It's not just about organization retard.There are only so many supply runs an outpost is going to get, for example. Only so much supply an armory or base is going to keep on hand. And supplies aren't consumed at the same rate. Having more parts commonality decreases the complexity of the logistics needs of a military force, which is really important in the field, especially when you factor in things like enemy action or disruptions in supply.
>>
>>28644771
>having troops well-rounded in terms of what weapons they can use is not a bad thing by any means
Well-roundedness does not come from having experience in multiple firearms that are virtually identical in operation.

There is an argument for cross training - like having all riflemen at least passingly familiar with how the military's sniper rifles, machine guns, etc function, but shooting an M16 and then shooting an HK416 does not make you a more well-rounded or better shooter.
>>
>>28644785
>this just in; Leader of Astrachia killed in a military coup
>>
>>28644771
>>28644787
With Astrachia being a lot smaller country than the U.S, and not operating as far from the homeland, the supply wouldn't be stretched too thin I suppose. All garrisons have capability to maintain all current service rifles, and if not, backup is not that far away

>>28644785
Wow, no need to be an asshole about this

It isn't really a problem if you have the resources to fund it. The armed forces have multiple sources of funding aside the taxation

>>28644853
It's just not a good idea. I know you want your fantasy army to be cool and operator and have an interesting variety of weapon so all the main characters are visually distinguishable or whatever but there are quite simply very good reasons militaries don't actually do this.

The Israelis may equip different forces with different arms, but they don't do it in this retarded grab-bag manner. And they're more standardized now than they used to be. The reason they had to do this in the past was necessity; it's really only been within the past few decades that they had the ability to equip their forces with standardized arms rather than what they could get their hands on.

But it is senpai. It lacks a forward assist and brass deflector. Plus the whole reason it had its distinctive moderator was because they hadn't figured out carbine length gas systems yet.

>>28645345
I'm pretty sure I can't truly convince you they're a good idea, but anyway, the signature weapons are supposed to be best for their respective branches, like the SA80 with its shorter length being better with paratroopers than the M16, or the 416 being also shorter and more reliable in the navy, and the Mk. 17 packing more punch than the M16. Most of them are the same caliber, and they're not too different from each other, so it's not as bad as it could be, eh? Another justification for it is to differentiate between branches, if you couldn't differentiate any other way. And tradition plays a small role in this, the branches have always had different weapons from each other, but that doesn't really account here, I suppose.

>Standard rifle
Mk18, I figure that doorkickers will appreciate the shorter barrel length, and Pogs will like having a light PDW.

>DMR
SCAR 17 to replace the horrendously outdated M14.

>Sidearm
Glock 19 because it`s more or less retard proof.

>LMG
Stoner 63, SEALS loved it, it`s relatively lightweight, and economy of scale would make them cheaper to manufacture because they use AR lower receivers.

>HMG
M2, no reason to replace something thats worked so well for so long.

>SF weapons
They get to use whatever I`m not going to make that decision for them.

Enlighten me as to why the M240 and M249 are both in service /k/. Whats the advantage of having a MG in .308 when .223 will take care of most things and .50 will take care of everything else?

>>28645846
5.56 is realistically effective out to about 600m, which is perfectly adequate for the infantry platoon.

However, in terms of what the weapons platoon of a company might be doing, it is very useful to bring the ability to engage area targets with machine guns out to 1000 yards or so.

On vehicles, 7.62 ammunition is also significantly less bulky than 12.7mm HMG ammunition which is remarkably useful for any sort of extended mission.

No you're misunderstanding me.
Most wetsuits I've worn were lightweight and made of some sort of composite metal and i understand the flame retardant idea but the current BDU's they wear in the US navy are in fact not flame retardant.
>>28644598
And yes i know what a wetsuit is you retard. I mean to say it's made out of the same material that i would want on it. Not just wetsuits.(That would be nasty) And dude about the flight suits. I just meant lightweight suits for ground operations and ACTUAL flightsuits for the pilots.

Catering to immigrants or just lazy people, if you can't find a job after school, we'll put you in a job. We don't take debt, we don't give out money to other countries, to name a few.
>>
>>28646947
Now that we know that you're just fascist Cuba, it makes it a lot easier to critique your fictional military.
>>
>>28647056
I wouldn't say fascist, very rarely we've had to force people into a job, since they mostly are able to find them themselves, if that's what you meant by fascist.
>>
>>28646947
>Catering to immigrants
Immigrants are often a source of workers who have skills your own country lacks.

t. every Filipino nurse ever

>We don't take debt
Debt on a national level does not work the same as debt on a personal level. Getting into a modest amount of debt to pay for infrastructure that develops the economy is a really, really good idea. Plus, governments can just wait for inflation to do it's thing, then pay off the debt a hundred years later when it's worthless.

>we don't give out money to other countries
International aid usually benefits the donating country. When a gommie shithole privatises their water or power industry, it's not some African company that buys those companies and profits off the misery of poor people.

Same with building bridges or skyscrapers, a gommie shithole company can't get past the third floor before the construction site collapses from weight-bearing columns made of old banana peels.
>>
>>28647088
With catering to immigrants, I mean that they have to earn their keep. Basically the opposite what FInland and Sweden mostly do. We don't give out money places that would immediately waste it, like Greece in recent years, of course we help if there's a disaster or something, and since debt seems to be unavoidable, let's scratch that one out. And no, we don't sell our industries entirely to foreign companies. Nice that you help me find ways to improve Astrachia even further

The Candy Cane Forest has incredibly strict immigration laws, and has an automatic immigration ban on anyone from a majority Islamic country.
The Candy Cane Forest is also currently assisting Russia and Assad in conducting air strikes against ISIS and the FSA. Candy Cane special forces are currently conducting missions which include targeted assassinations in Iraq, Afghanistian, Lybia, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Iran.
The Candy Cane Forest is an enemy of Israel and has Neutral relations with the US.

Do you expect all engagements to be within 500 yards?

>SCAR
Agreed.

>Glock 19
It's far from retard proof. The lack of a safety disabled by something other than the trigger makes it more succeptable to tardery.

>Stoner 63
But it totally doesn't use AR lowers. Yes, it uses AR-18 lowers, but your MK. 18's are going to use a completely different reciever. Don't see how you figured that economy of scale applies.

Regarding the 249 and the 240;

Those weapons are used for heavy, suppressive fire, and it may need to be at a longer range/more accurate than the average rifleman can deliver.

Only because Astrachia was ceded to them as part of the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, but then you rebelled after the British imposed their Estampecargot Tax, the tax on the Stamp Snail (a variant of Helix nigrozonata).
