Hypothetical Forces : Transformation

[kato]

I'm pondering starting a "V2.0" of this thread.

For that purpose i've provisionally enlarged our country, also adding in more troops - among others a whole lot of anti-tank units, and helicopter and airforce units - to give us a better start.

Still no GBAD though, btw.

Anyone interested? Would start a new thread for that. Probably a bit less detailed on the unnecessary stuff than this one.

For an intro, my provisional infantry-centric wartime defense force, formed from existing units, would initially look like this (note: for twice the territory and 150% of the population compared to the info in this thread - we're moving closer to the size of Switzerland, albeit with different terrain and only half the territory):
