Description

The nation of Ufalme Mkuu sists landlocked on the central continent and dominates it's surrounding nations by trade relationships and diplomatic efforts. They have, however, a capable military, highly mobile and able to cover long distances. Wheeled vehicles are predominant in the army, but they also have a core of capable battle tanks.

Newest among these is the modern Temba-type.

Using the concept of the oscillating turret, it mounted a powerful 140mm smoothbore gun, fed by an autoloader in it's rear. A heavy machinegun remote weapon station and a medium coaxial MG are also mounted on the vehicle, as are active defense systems and decoy launchers.

The Simba-type air-defense vehicle is also based on the Tembo and combines short- and very short-range missiles paired with a modern radar and optical tracking system. A sole 30mm cannon is also aboard as a backup weapon. 12 short-range Veichekesho missiles and four imperium-made Venusfliegenfalle missiles are aboard.

Unusual is the choice for an armored artillery vehicle. The Twiga-type mounted a drone-missile system instead of an MRL or howitzer gun. Sixteen long-range loitering drones can deliver either a tank-busting  warhead, mine delivery containers, high-explosive or electronic warfare systems. A specialized ammunition vehicle is currently under development and will maximize the Twiga's capabilties.


The Ng'ombe-type of recovery vehicle is a pretty standard ARV with modern capabilities.
