Description Here are some designs of weapons and vehicles in my fictional Human faction, the United Earth Republic Armed Forces, or UNMC, United Nations Military Command. The UNMC is the fictional military branch of the United Earth government in the year 2204.

The designs in the picture are as follows from top to bottom, M8 STSAR-23 Assault Rifle with holographic sight, UERNF Pilot, UERNF Nighthawk cutaway, side view, and full view, UERMC Combat Marine, UERMC Cougar light recon vehicle side view, top view, and mountable weaponry M2 Browning .50 cal, and the M72 HU Vulcan Minigun.

The STSAR, the Squad Tactical Suppression Assault Rifle, is a fully modular weapon that is one of the two primary weapons of the UERMC and can chamber 6.5 mm rounds and 5.56 mm with interchanged barrels. It has a firing rate of 360 rounds per minute and had a range of 4000 meters.

The HU23A Nighthawk drop ship is the primary VTOL vehicle of the Armed Forces, able to carry 3 crew, 10 seated soldiers and the capacity to hold 15-20 additional standing soldiers. It is equipped with 2 40 mm autocannons and two mounted missile pods standard, with the ability to mount 2 door guns of varying size and caliber. 5 different thrusters mounted on the vechicle allow for optimum mobility and take off ability. It has a max speed of 250 mph. (additional illustration of the drop ship's ability to carry heavy vehicles is shown right)

The M9 HU "Cougar" light recon vehicle is primarily used for what it's name implies, light recon. It can transport 4 seated soldiers with room for 3 more in the back. It can mount a single rotatable weapon on the roof, more often the M2 Browning or the Vulcan Minigun. The vehicle can reach up to speeds of 100 mph with its lightly armed chassis.

these are all designs I came up with, finally I came up with a design for the Cougar and the Nighthawk. Also the new STSAR rifle. These designs were intended for the rp between me and Mainly for me to get a good visual of what the vehicles of my faction looked like.

All designs, UER and military designs belong to me

Ah, the good old 4X4. Though I would have expected a bit more amour.
I guess I am used to the chassis of a Hummve. But then again, if shielding technology became cheap, perhaps this cheap could stand to a little more ladz gunfire.

By the way, how much ammo is in a mag in a STSAR?
Does it take different variation of magazines? What type of accessories are compatible with it?

Well like I said, this is the light recon version, if you look at my picture "Taking the Bridgehead", there are more heavily armored versions featured. The Cougar uses a standard 4x4 design for the robust and versitile nature of it, and yes, it is a descendant of the Humvee as in my story, designers looked to the Humvee for inspiration. By 2204, Humanity has had little success with shielding technology, though am about to add a new tank to the UERAF inventory that does mix things up a bit in that department...

the STSAR holds 36 rounds standard, but can use several different sized clips. The STSAR assault rifle is compatible with any atatchment or add on that uses the standard rail system. With the modular design in mind, the rifle is really built to be used as a platform to use several weapon modification and attatchments.

I see. Though the ammo capacity is questionable since technology should have advanced to compensate for this, even if a little two-hundred years have past. I have also been thinking of having a panel shield, which it can extend itself to protect the wielder.
It is rather hard to describe, but basically it uses panels to decrease the space and weigh during travel.

It has a metal type that is durable enough to resist plasma fire, but light enough so it isn't a hinderance. Think jackal shield for a minute. Also, by now the URAME should have invested in something to combat those whatever they are called who wield swords in close quarter combat. Something of an extendable sword. A Swiss Army knife/sword if you will. If needed, it can extend as a sword to fight against those who have closed in range enough to see the white's of ones eyes. Not to mention, it can also be shrunk down to a knife if needed for utility or combat purposes. Also, shouldn't they have access to a HUD system of some sort?

Sorry, I am a bit of a Halo geek if you will, and I usually think of ideas from the twenty-sixth century. Also, have jetpacks and flying cars have been invented yet? If humanity hasn't invented repulser craft by this time... I mean we have plenty of scientist who know physics so it is plausible.

dont see how technology would solve ammo problems, ammo is ammo. A what?

well I was thinking more along the lines of actual portable energy shielding but on a larger scale. ( UERMC by the way ) ...huh? Only some have a HUD

XP well yeah, this is only the 23rd century... XP no, flying cars and jetpacks havent been invented dude. That requires nano technology and batteries and I'm afriad that hasnt been invented by then XP being a space faring species is already enough for Humanity at this point, anything over that is pushing it XP

SamPD2 In reply to NewLegend1 [2010-08-30 06:07:51 +0000 UTC]

Think of overlapping panels.
Like those on a solar panel, except they overlap each.
They expand to protect the user from stuff such as swords and so forth.

Damn... By now nano tech should be in our brains.
Speaking of which, robots should have taken over by now.

um... dont really think that'd fit my list of tech XP

um, no? nano tech is difficult to aquire and besides, the public in 2204 is against a big brother government, preventing chips in our brains besides some military personnel.

XP dude it's only 200 years in the future, I doubt nano batteries have been invented by then that would allow for flying cars to be successful in the first place

:/ like I said, only 200 years later

AIs, well, not really. Ships in the Navy and many other military branches and civilians use complex computer programs and subroutines that do the computing work of an AI, but they lack the personality and hologram traits of Halo type AI. There are AIs in my story, but they are limited to an AI like the Superintendent from ODST, requiring a large data core and infrastructure to run it, and they'd be used to run super cities and large military installations. They are also expensive and not as common.

At least they got somewhere in that department.
Now all we need is some magic to be infused with a robot.

NewLegend1 In reply to cptbmac199 [2010-08-14 05:17:46 +0000 UTC]

well, I dont really know about offering advice. Well, the thing I can think of is to not think that it has to be like a vehicle from a cirtain game or movie, try to think of what you'd want as your own design. Try to think outside the box and try to think what would benefit your universe or your storyline and what your race would design to counter whatever it is they face. Like does it require armor, have suspension, does it favor troop transport over firepower, and design it around that, its what I try to do

NewLegend1 In reply to Vreenine [2010-07-17 00:09:32 +0000 UTC]

well you just got to keep at it. Take my approach, study weapons you like, modular weapons like our modern weapons, the SCAR-H, M4, M16, or go and look at other non-modular, ones like from sci-fi weapons without tactical rails and other things. Then pick and choose the stuff you like and slap it together for your gun

Vreenine In reply to NewLegend1 [2010-07-17 00:34:31 +0000 UTC]

I do that to, i dont know how much money iv'e spent on firearm magazines. It's just im picky when it comes to what i put down.
Thanks for the advice though. The sci fi thing is not a bad idea.

yeah I know, the purpose of this weapon is to be modular, a design with a clip behind the trigger defeats that idea entirally by taking away an adjustable stock

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Phenixtri In reply to NewLegend1 [2010-07-17 16:03:45 +0000 UTC]

eh true but its also less accurate due to a shorter barrel compared to bull-pup weapons. Its rly just a matter of preference .

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

NewLegend1 In reply to Phenixtri [2010-07-17 16:18:25 +0000 UTC]

that's not true, bull pup weapons are accurate due to longer barrels but have a cut down size due to it so accuracy isnt a factor

NewLegend1 In reply to CMKJ8102 [2010-07-16 21:07:57 +0000 UTC]

ah, well that doesnt allow for an adjustable stock, which is part of the modular system, so no, I dont think a bull pup rifle would have been better

CMKJ8102 In reply to NewLegend1 [2010-07-16 21:44:16 +0000 UTC]

me neither but they can be usfull because most of the barrel is in the back making the weopon shorter and more
compact. i really dont like bull pups either i only have one in my story lol.

NewLegend1 In reply to CMKJ8102 [2010-07-17 00:08:07 +0000 UTC]

yeah plus they increase accuracy of a standard sized weapon but with the accuracy of current weapons, that added boost may be unnecessary. Plus I love the moduability of weapons such as these where you can slap almost any attachment onto it

CMKJ8102 In reply to NewLegend1 [2010-07-17 19:55:06 +0000 UTC]

yeah that is a good function to have on any weopon design
