No outside help to either nation, who would win in a war?
Without help from other nations, neither has the force projection to get any meaningful number of personnel to each other.
>No outside help to either nation
Literally impossible because Australia and NZ are inseparable

Do the Irish have a military? Because the Kiwis don't

Yeah 8,000 strong, we're cucks though so we use our military for UN peacekeeping in Africa and Palestine.
As someone in the New Zealand Army I'm going with Ireland because they probably have more than a full strength brigade.
Real answer : Straya
All that extra space, a lot less paddy backpackers and maori dolebludgers

Ireland:
>53 APCs with 12.7mm and 7.62mm MGs
>18 APCs with either 12.7mm or 40mm RWS
>6 APCs with 30mm and 7.62mm
>27 LTAVs with either 12.7mm or 40mm
>6 out of 14 useable Scorpions with 76mm
>24 towed 105mm howitzers
Total 77 APCs, 27 light vehicles, 6 Scorpions, 24 howitzers
New Zealand:
>95 NZLAVs with 25mm autocannons
>24 towed 105mm howitzers
Total 95 IFVs, 24 howitzers
Both have comparable manpower and reserves. I'm inclined to give the edge to the Kiwis. They have a larger number of better AFVs, with the 25mm autocannons giving them an edge in range and firepower over what is mostly .50cal brownings on the Irish vehicles.
At sea, the two frigates of the NZ Navy would shit all over the handful of coastal patrol vessels that the Irish have.
In the air, well, lol no combat aircraft for either of them.
Well its a bit of a moot fight if we have no setting for it.
Straight up fight, it goes to NZ. Better kit, actual deployed expirience. The NZSF are fucking nails.
nz. we have maoris.

Irish army only has enough ammunition to last them for 2 weeks so I give this one to New Zealand.
