And as to tech and training, the army is comparable in both, to cold war soviet union. fairly well trained troops but not spectacular, in large numbers. Though the generals make up for the armies basic training by being pretty good. Technology, I'm rippinig straight from the soviet union, with TU-95 bears badgers and all manner of bombers, migs and T72s and T80s. Only thing I'm missing from the old USSR is nukes. There are also vast stores of older weapons, the army disposes of nothing and maintains the same caliber weapons as previous generation, so if the home land IS invaded everyone is expected to resist.Well except babies, but even young kiddies will be thrown at the meat grinder for defence
