Sentry Corps
[spoiler]

The Sentry Corps are the ground-based branch of the IDF. It is specially protected by law as the nationwide domestic police force. Being host to most of the mechanized units of the Syllvan military, the Sentry Corps has roots in the Sentinel Forces of the United Islands (1972-2001) and the Operators of the Stellar Archipelago (2001-2016). Both forces were disbanded and reintegrated into the succeeding military, adding traditions, training, and technology standards.

The Turbius-class LCS is the newest ship to enter service with Free Syllvin. They are designed by engineers from Intercorp and Future Solutions with an angular design to reduce radar cross section, and built by Syllvan Fleet Systems with the most up-to-date warfare modules. The first ship, EDS Turbius, was entered onto the Sailors Roll on December 12, 2015. The class is designed for missions in coastal water and the Syllvan Gulf, such as escorting trade vessels, engaging frigates and corvettes, search and rescue, humanitarian missions, and as an assault support platform. The lack of guided surface-to-surface missiles means that Turbius-class ships must rely on Axis and Dubis-class destroyers to engage hostile elements at long range. The Turbius-class is the first ship in the Sailing Corps to have a dedicated UAV system, with a special flight control compartment for piloting the onboard SDU-99 Tactical Unmanned Hunter-Killer Helicopter.

An IDF variant of the Turbius class. The missile turrets and the rear CIWS have been removed to make way for port-and-starboard cranes and a supplementary sensor suite. Note the enlarged rear RIHB bay as well.

The aircraft, while somewhat aged when compared to modern fighter craft, has proven it is a reliable and effective combat platform. Notoriously difficult to master the controls, pilots have expressed the speed and range capabilities far outstrip the learning curve in terms of effort versus reward.

Dramn-class Cutter

[spoiler]

Basic Information

[ul]
[li]Type - Light patrol cutter
[li]Displacement - 382 long tonnes
[li]Length - 43 meters
[li]Beam - 9 meters
[li]Draft - 2.5 meters

Propulsion
[li]2x 4,500 kw engines
[li]2x maneuvering thrusters

Performance
[li] Range - 2,500 nautical miles
[li] Top Speed - 30 knots

Compliment
[li] 3 officers, 21 crew

Sensors
[li] SS21-C surface-search/navigation radar
[li] S-99/L/ID Sensor package

Armament

Guns:
[li] 1x 30 mm Model 30-HH Autocannon
[li] 4x 15 mm Model 50/N heavy machine gun

Sub-vehicles
[li] 1x SI-34/R RHIB seacraft deployed from interior bay

The Dramn-class cutter is the most numerous ship in the Syllvanian fleet, and fill the role of a heavy anti-crime patrol boat. It is the smallest ship class in the cutter family. Its light armament and lack of extensive sensors mean that,while not suited to military combat operations, the cutter can deal with most criminal elements easily. The RHIB onboard also allows the crew to conduct off-ship operations, and is most often used in search and rescue. In peacetime, the Dramn-class is the primary patrol unit of the IDF, but takes a back seat to the larger Conkian-class heavy patrol boat and the Lillast and Berikid-class corvettes during war.

[ul]
[li]Type - Light Armored Vehicle
[li]Weight - 5200 kg
[li]Length - 4.96 meters
[li]Width - 2.3 meters
[li]Height - 2.1 meters

Armament
[li] x1 Dennel HVC-9901 heavy machine gun (belt fed)
(interchangable)
[li] x1 Kosot HVM-112K Anti-tank missile system

Free Syllvin employs the Arite in all of its military operations. A armored scout car and squad transport, the LAV can provide high speed and maneuverability while still being able to sustain small-arms fire and limited explosions. They commonly operate in groups of two or three, and are used as escorts and reconnaissance units in larger armored deployments. They can be landed by Dryss-class hovercraft or Cheuric-class tank landing ships, but it is also possible to fit them into air vehicles and drop them over an area with a special parachute system.

Public Suppression
[spoiler]
The Public Suppression Units are the riot squads of the IDF. They are deployed when civil disobedience occurs as a precaution against protests escalating to riots. While they are usually present as a reminder and pre-emptive measure, the PSU see regular conflicts with the public in the Syllvania Sector.

Typically dressed in heavy ceramic plating and anti-stab equipment, Public Suppression officers are trained with close quarters combat and group tactics in mind to be effective when dealing with large masses of people. They do not carry lethal weapons as standard, instead using pistols chambered with .30 caliber rubber bullets, an expandable truncheon, and a heavy shield that is designed to withstand physical blows, thrown objects, and light ballistics.

Margo-class platforms are semi-submersible ocean platforms that have been converted to military use from the Depth-type oil support platforms that were a mainstay of the Syllvan petroleum fleet. With an increased need for multi use military vessels and a missile defense system, but lacking the budget to design either from the ground up, the EDF acquired six Depth-type platforms for refit into a mobile over-the-horizon system and support vessel.

The bistatic array mounted on a swivel system takes up the majority of the top deck and interior of the platform. It can detect objects in motion down to the size of a human person in a 55 degree cone extending 3,500 kilometers from the dish. The operational method makes it less effective at detecting missiles than a ground-based array, but the mobility and tactical value of the platform have kept it an active part of the EDF fleet. With some modification, the array can service as a DEW based off its ERP. The proposed uses would be for scrambling missile guidance systems and burning out electronics in vehicles.

Margo-class vessels and their cousins in the Jerikus-class can operate independently for up to two months without resupply, but cannot move under their own power outside a radius of 1200 km due to fuel capacity.

After the proven utility of the Margo-class radar platform, the EDF selected 10 Mega-type construction platforms to convert to military use. Filling the niche of theater command vessel and logistics center usually taken by fleet carriers, the Jerikus-class is the lynchpin of larger EDF operations. With the raw materials storage converted to military cargo space, and all but one crane mounting stripped out and replaced with surface-to-air missile systems, a Jerikus-class platform can perform supply and defense duties better than some purpose-designed vessels.

A shallow hanger deck is located immediately below the helipad on top of the superstructure, and along with the adjoining AIMD shop, stores and services four Hunter/Killer drone helicopters. These unit can be loaded onto a central elevator via a turntable rail system and brought up to the helipad for launch.
In addition to the aircraft storage, smaller vessels such as corvettes and patrol boats can dock in between the platform pylons for resupply.

Much of the additional spaces inside the platform have been occupied by tactical command stations and communications relays. Two CICs allow the platform’s commander to direct the individual operations of the unit, as well as those of a larger battle group or even theater-wide forces when anchored. A standard carrier-level ECM system is supplemented by a E-War suite specially engineered to benefit from the significant array of sensors on the Jerikus-class.

[li]x1 Dennel HVM-8892 60 mm internal mortar

[li]x1 HAS Vikkus Active Defense System

[li]x15 smoke grenades

The Hattar is the fifth iteration in its family of heavy tanks. While not amphibious like the large majority of Syllvan ground vehicles, it makes up for its relative slow speed and lack of maneuvarability with heavy armor and a heavier main gun. The design is the result of half a century of improvements and research into combat in uneven and dusty conditions, such as those found in the western reaches of Free Syllvin. The tracks, wheels, suspension, turret, optics, and air systems are all designed to withstand tough rocks and sandstorm conditions even while in use. The Hattar family of tanks shares a hull system with that of the FS/H-067 Artak heavy IFV, so the tanks have a rear compartment that can be used as a cargo bed, a medical station, a command post, or a troop bay.
