IC:

Due to the escalating conflict in the Middle East and North Africa, the High Command has also given priority to the production and deployment of the following weapons systems:

1. Due to the successful service entry of the Regulus SLBM embarked on Ohio SSBNs (24 per sub, each with 10 variable-yield MIRVs), the new Kronos mobile ICBM was also developed. Far larger than the Regulus, it is designed to be a highly-accurate counterforce weapon, with the same number of warheads but heavier payload. To take advantage of the extensive high-speed MAGLEV rail network in the Home Islands, Southern Africa and AFOH Antarctica. Kronos will be mounted on the Mobile Rail Launch Sytem (MRLS). Each of the planned 500 MRLS will mount 2 missiles. Initially, 3 squadrons (60 launchers) are planned to be deployed in Southern Africa.



2. The land-based Mk 8 anti-aerospace railguns in fixed installations will be supplemented by rail-mounted Mk 16 guns. Specially-designated, well-camouflaged firing areas and armored shelters (to be shared with Kronos MRLS units) are integrated into the rail network. Some of the units to be deployed in Southern Africa will be given land attack missions.
