HRL Space Forces

(WIP)

MS Hangar

The HRL, like the other blocs, has an extensive variety of space use military equipment. Ranging from shuttles and mobile suits to heavy cruisers, the HRL Navy's primary role is defensive, rather than intervention in other territories. Below is a list of the various vehicles and weapons in use, as well as the definitions of a few terms used in describing them.

A mobile weapon is the generic term used to describe vehicles that incorporate technology typically found in mobile suits, as opposed to conventional vehicles such as tanks, planes, and ships. The term "mobile weapon" can be used to describe any vehicle fitting that definition (such as mobile suits and mobile armors) but is typically only used when referring to more than one type simultaneously or when it is difficult to label a vehicle as a specific sub-type. Most mobile weapons fall under one of four categories: Mobile Pods, the most simplistic type of mobile weapon; Mobile Suits (MS), the more popular and iconic type of mobile weapon; Mobile Armors (MA), larger non-humanoid counterparts to mobile suits; and Transformable Mobile Weapons, which traditionally can switch between an MS-mode and an MA-mode. Note: there are others, however, that do not conform fully to one of these categories.

Mobile Suits (MS) are the most popular and most numerous type of mobile weapon. They are humanoid combat vehicles, typically employing two arms to deploy weapons, two legs for propulsion, and a head that acts as a main camera and sometimes houses a secondary weapon that acts as a rotating turret (with the head itself providing the rotation). Typically speaking, a mobile suit is approximately 18 meters in height, with a cockpit located in the unit's torso. However, exceptions are not uncommon; units that are much larger or slightly smaller are not unheard of, and occasionally the cockpit is located in the head or (in semi-rare cases) the crotch, as well.

Mobile suits are typically deployed in a fashion similar to tanks or aircraft. Working in groups, they are often organized into teams consisting of three to five units, though larger formations in major battles are not unknown. Typically teams are homogeneous, consisting of a single unit type, but may sometimes be composed of complimenting unit types (e.g. a close-combat unit type and a fire support unit type). The latter is most common in teams with high-performance units and experienced pilots

Model Number: MSJ-06II-F
Official Name: Tieren Space Type
Head Height: 18.2 m
Base Weight: 81.4 t
Full Weight: 127.5 t
Power Source: Battery
Armor Material: E-Carbon
Maximum Acceleration: 3.38 G
Effective Sensor Radius: 8900 m
Crew: Pilot only (in standard cockpit in torso)
Manufacturer: Norinco
First Deployment: February, 2288
Operator: HRL
Developed From: -MSJ-06II-G Tieren Ground Type

Prior to the introduction of the Tieren Ground Type, the Human Reformation League (HRL) relied on the fossil fuel based MSJ-04 Fantong, which had no space-use variant. For space combat, the small mobile armor MAJ-S08 Xiaoshou was deployed, but as the wars went on and the fighting intensified, the HRL realized it needed a better machine. Playing catch up to the other militaries in developing space-use mobile suits, the HRL successfully created its first such mobile suit, the Tieren Space Type, using the Tieren Ground Type as a base and incorporating data from the Xiaoshou.

As of AD 2307, more than a decade has passed since the versatile Tieren Space Type was deployed as the HRL's mainstay mass production space mobile suit, but it remains in active service thanks to multiple minor revisions. While some of its features have become obsolete, the technologies utilized are highly reliable, enabling easy repair. Equipped with various space-use equipment, including nine thrusters on its back, shoulders and legs, the Tieren Space Type has excellent mobility in space despite weighing over 120t. The tanks on its legs are filled with water for use as propellant and they also serve as crude shields. Each leg normally only has one such propellant tank, though multiple connected tanks are utilized for long distance travel. Expended tanks are ejected to save weight.

While a reliable machine, the HRL is already working on ways to replace it.

Armaments:
-200mm x 25 Caliber Smoothbore Gun (Space Type)
Attached to the forearm, the 200mm x 25 Caliber Smoothbore Gun (Space Type) is the Tieren Space Type's main weapon. A space-use version of the ground type's smoothbore gun, it has identical capabilities with the main difference being the two additional two heat sinks attached to the gun's barrel. These heat sinks are made of super-hard carbon and can be used as carbon blades for close combat. To adapt to a wide range of operations, the smoothbore gun can use various types of ammunitions, including armor piercing rounds, APFSDS rounds, grenades, anti-air projectiles, flares, rocket assisted projectiles, etc.

-30mm Machine Gun
A 6-barreled machine gun built into the left chest that fires solid shells. Despite having a low attack power due to its small caliber, its rapid fire capability means that it is suitable for anti-personnel, anti-air purposes and against other soft targets. Additionally, while it cannot damage enemy mobile suits it can still restrict an enemy’s movements. While not the Tieren's main weapon, its wide range of applications makes it one of the factors that contributed to the suit's high versatility. An external electrical power supply connector is mounted in the right chest.

-550mm Missile Launcher
A weapon that fires 550mm caliber missiles. It uses a double barrel type of magazine that can hold up to ten missiles at a time. The rear barrel can be adjusted via a slide based on the range of the target and the ammunition type currently used. It is commonly referred to as the "Bazooka" among soldiers due to its shape. The missiles possess fire-and-forget capability.

MSJ-06II-S Tieren Taozi

Technical Specifications
Classification: Custom Super Soldier-use General-Purpose Mobile Suit
Model Number: MSJ-06II-S
Official Name: Tieren Space Type
Head Height: 18.2 m
Base Weight: 78.3 t
Full Weight: 112.1 t
Power Source: Battery
Armor Material: E-Carbon
Maximum Acceleration: 3.62 G
Effective Sensor Radius: 8900 m
Crew: Pilot only (in standard cockpit in torso)
Manufacturer: Norinco
First Deployment: February, 2307
Operator: HRL
Developed From: -MSJ-06II-G Tieren Ground Type

The Tieren Taozi (Taozi (Chinese: 桃子) means "peach" in Chinese — a fruit that signifies longevity in Chinese folklore, traditionally depicted in pink) has its roots in the HRL's top secret Super Soldier Program. In order to make full use of their abilities, it was decided that a specialized unit was needed. The Tieren Taozi is a mobile suit of the Tieren line of machines, but has vast improvements in terms of versatility and capability. Unlike previous models of the Tieren series, which were all designed for specific combat purpose in specific terrain, the Tieren Taozi is capable of functioning at full capacity both in space and on Earth. Custom-crafted from the ground up to best express the physical and cognitive enhancements of the super-soldier Soma Peries, the Taozi is a highly-maneuverable general-purpose mobile suit that performs with comparable superiority to standard-model Tieren variants in any terrain.

In space, the Taozi is capable of greater acceleration and maneuverability than the standard MSJ-06II-F Tieren Space Type. Like the Tieren Space Type, the Taozi's propellant tank stores water, however, it only has one such tank instead of the Space Type's two and it is mounted on the rear waist instead of on the legs. Primary propulsion is supplied from the back and the lower back of the legs, with selective activation of the thrusters on its movable shoulder-mounted shield for directional guidance. Fine control is permitted with an additional six thrusters. On Earth, the Taozi is capable of hovering and maneuvering like the MSJ-06II-GC Tieren High Mobility Ground Type. The Taozi uses the same weapon as the Tieren series such as an arm-mounted smoothbore gun and chest-mounted machine gun, and can also use a carbon blade like the Tieren Ground Type.

Armaments:
-200mm x 25 Caliber Smoothbore Gun (Space Type)
The main weapon of the Tieren Taozi and identical to the one used by the Tieren Space Type. Mounted on the right forearm, it rapid-fires 200mm solid rounds and can use various types of ammunition to adapt to a wide range of operations. Two heat sinks are attached to the gun's barrel and can function as blades since they are made of super-hard carbon.

-30mm Machine Gun
A 6-barreled machine gun built into the left chest that fires solid shells. Despite having a low attack power due to its small caliber, its rapid fire capability means that it is suitable for anti-personnel, anti-air purposes and against other soft targets. Additionally, while it cannot damage enemy mobile suits it can still restrict an enemy’s movements. While not the Tieren's main weapon, its wide range of applications makes it one of the factors that contributed to the suit's high versatility. An external electrical power supply connector is mounted in the right chest.

-Carbon Blade
An optional armament for the Tieren Taozi, it is the same close combat weapon as used by the Tieren Ground Type. The carbon blade is katar-like, with a trapezoidal-shaped blade that parallels the grip. It is made of super-hard carbon, and can be stored on the back of the waist when not in use. The weapon takes advantage of the Tieren's power and heavy weight to smash/shatter the target, rather than cut/slice it. Even if the carbon blade is blocked by the opponent’s shield, the blow can still be used to completely throw the opponent off balance

-550mm Missile Launcher
A weapon that fires 550mm caliber missiles. It uses a double barrel type of magazine that can hold up to ten missiles at a time. The rear barrel can be adjusted via a slide based on the range of the target and the ammunition type currently used. It is commonly referred to as the "Bazooka" among soldiers due to its shape. The missiles possess fire-and-forget capability.

Kuznetsov-class Heavy Cruiser

Technical Specifications
Classification: Heavy Cruiser
Official Name: Kuznetsov
Overall Length: 630 m
Overall Width: 200 m

The Kuznetsov-class heavy cruiser is a class of heavy cruisers operated by the HRL space forces. Designed as escorts for heavier capital ships, the Kuznetsov-class ships use more advanced catapults to launch high-performance mobile suits and even mobile armors. The design represented a major advance in HRL ship design over the Kiev-class escort carrier/destroyers, which could only launch the diminutive MAJ-S08 Xiaoshou. Two ships were originally laid down at the Internationale Station Shipyards, followed by the first of the Ulyanovsk-class supercarriers. The ship is heavily armed with multiple primary, secondary and tertiary gun turrets, plus several missile launchers. The warship is the largest fielded by the HRL in it's class and sports the highest number of weapons and mobile suit carrying capacity of any HRL cruiser; leading them to be nicknamed "pocket battleships".

Armaments:
-3 x main particle gun turret, mounted on underside
-2 x 2-barrel main particle gun turret, mounted on port and starboard sides of middle section
-4 x linear cannon secondary gun turret, mounted on top of middle section and on port and starboard rear hangars
-4 x 2-barrel linear cannon secondary gun turret, mounted above and below main hangars
-2 x 3-barrel secondary gun turret, mounted in middle section
-20 x 2-barrel AA/CIWS tertiary gun turret, mounted throughout main body
-10 x 3-barrel AA/CIWS tertiary gun turret, mounted throughout main body
-6 x rail missile launcher, mounted on main body

Skoryy-class Destroyer

Technical Specifications
Classification: Anti-aircraft and anti-ship guided missile destroyer
Official Name: Skoryy
Overall Length: 320 m
Overall Width: 115 m
Power Source: Fusion Reactor
Armor Material: E-Carbon
Shield: Particle Shield against kinetic and thermal weapons
MS Catapults: 2
MS Capacity: 12
Manufacturer: Internationale Station Shipyard
First Deployment: March, 2289
Operator: HRL

Since its is designed mainly as a escort ship, the Skoryy-class is well armed for it's size, featuring two dual particle beam cannons, several CIWS guns for defense and multiple missile batteries. Thanks to its decently sized hangar, the Skoryy-class can carry a decent amount of either mobile suits or mobile armors in its hangar, which can serve as a mobile defense for the ships. The Skoryy-class are guided missile destroyers, primarily tasked with anti-light ship warfare, while also providing air defense for warships and transports under escort. The class was designed to complement the Udaloy-class destroyers, which were fitted primarily for use against heavier ships.

Armaments:
-2 x 2-barrel main particle gun turret
The only beam weapons mounted on the Skoryy-class ships, like the ones on the Udaloy-class ships, they can move into several positions.

-CIWS
The only shell firing weapons on the ship are 30 AK-675 75mm Automatic Multi-barrel CIWS guns, used to shoot down incoming missiles or Mobile Weapons. As a point defense weapon, the AK-675s are mounted on hardpoints spread over the hull of the ship so as to cover a maximum number of approaches.

-Vertical Missile Launchers
All in all, the Skoryy-class features 38 vertical missile launchers, allowing the ship to unleash a large barrage of rockets towards enemy units. These missiles are primarily used against enemy frigates and light ships.

Udaloy-class Destroyer

Technical Specifications
Classification: Anti-ship destroyer with anti-aircraft capabilities
Official Name: Udaloy
Overall Length: 290 m
Overall Width: 100 m
Power Source: Fusion Reactor
Armor Material: E-Carbon
Shield: Particle Shield against kinetic and thermal weapons
MS Catapults: 2
MS Capacity: 12
Manufacturer: Internationale Station Shipyard
First Deployment: February, 2289
Operator: HRL

Compared to the contemporary Skoryy-class ships, the smaller Udaloy actually carries a heavier anti-ship armament, the intention being that the Udaloy would focus on attacking heavier ships while the Skoryy dealt with lighter targets such as frigates and mobile suits. Thanks to sharing hangar design with the Skoryy-class, the Udaloy-class can carry the same amount of either mobile suits or mobile armors in its hangar, which can serve either as a mobile defense for the ships or support in attacking enemy ships. While the Skoryy-class was more focused on missiles, the Udaloy carries more gun-based weaponry such as particle beam cannons and linear cannons. The class was designed to complement the Skoryy-class destroyers, which were fitted primarily for use against lighter ships.

Armaments:
-Positron Blaster Cannon
The strongest weapon of the Udaloy-class are two dual "Snowstorm" positron blaster cannons, which are retractable and mounted in the sides of the rear engine sections. The cannons can fire either a single positron blast for an instantaneous destruction against entire mobile weapon groups or split the beams into four; enough to punch right through unprotected enemy warships.

-Particle Beam Gun
The only other beam weapons carried by ships of the Udaloy-class are two "Granit" Dual Particle Beam Guns, which are mounted on rotating hardpoints that allow them to cover a wide firing angle. The Granit are also retractable.

-CIWS
The only shell firing weapons on the ship are 25 AK-675 75mm Automatic Multi-barrel CIWS guns, used to shoot down incoming missiles or Mobile Weapons. As a point defense weapon, the AK-675s are mounted on hardpoints spread over the hull of the ship so as to cover a maximum number of approaches.

-Missile Launchers
Besides its energy guns and shell-firing weapons, the Udaloy-class is also equipped with a large number of missile launchers, which are divided into surface-to-ship and surface-to-air types.
