竜宮 礼奈: In the wake of the Americans' retreat from the Pacific, Japan has extended protection over formerly American-protected regions -- specifically, South Korea and Taiwan/ROC. Although South Korea is disapproving, they have little choice with the incredibly militaristic pariah state to their north constantly threatening to take over.

Jon Poniatowski I: Poland begins its transition to restore the commonwealth that falled in 1795. It is estimated an agreement will be reached in 5 years

Wilson Smiley, PM: After nearly a decade of social unrest, the UK finally restores balance to the military with the reinstation of national service and a military first policy. The revival of the shelved  nuclear aircaft carrier designs are considered a top priority by Wilson Smiley and his MP's.

~Apr - Jun 2050~

Yair Zahavi: FOBs are completed and detachments of the Barak Battalion and HaBok'im HaRishon Battalion. Project Guardian begins with blueprints being drawn for a newer missile defense systems and construction of safety bunkers in the case of nukelear attack.

Polish diplomats agreed,Seting course to re-established the PL Commonwealth. The Polish Military Starts to use the initial names for the PL commonwealth forces currenlty the RPLCA (Royal Polish lithuania Commonwealth Army), RPLCAF (Royal Polish lithuania Commonwealth Air Force) and the Royal Commonwealth Navy (RCN) with the Ship designation HRPLS.

The two new armies are the Army of Taiwan and the Army of Korea, standing defense forces for their namesake regions. Expansion of the Japan maritime force begins, with twenty new keels laid between April and June. There are plans for fifty new ships in total, twenty-five of which will be Akizuki-class destroyers, while ten are planned to be of a new, as yet unnamed class which is intended to combine high firepower with low displacement. The remaining ships are to be helicopter carriers.

Wilson Smiley, PM: The Prime Minister begins to covertly neutralize important figureheads who disagree with or are surely to resist his plans to rebuild the UK as a military superpower. Journalists, Politicians and Ministers of the Lords dissappear seemingly overnight. Plans to restore the Royal Navy with carriers is frustratingly slow to begin with, and the government issues a nationwide call for scientific talent.

竜宮 礼奈: The Defense Agency Technical Research institute begins research on a replacement for the aging Type 89 FM (A modernized version of the howa T89F) at the request of the JGF. They are looking at several prototypal options, namely caseless, bullpup, and potentially coilgun technology. Each one has issues, and it is expected that the Institute will decide on a mechanism within the last half of 2051. It is thought that the Type 10 will also be looked at for replacement, rather than for upgrading.

Jon Poniatowski I: Poland decides to name the aircraft name announced last month HRPLS Lebenski. The idea of the aircraft carrier plane is unknown, the UK looks promising, alongside the USNA. However The PLU is still deciding its current assault rifle be switched to the SCAR-H Mod. 3, or a copy of the French Famas.

It is difficult to find a sufficiently advanced weapon to defeat the equally advanced defense systems now in play, and hence the Ministry of Defense is assembled to review the final four designs -- one is a copy of the G11 with several ergonomic improvements, one is simply an updated T89, one is a bullpup derivative of the T89, and the final one is a preliminary coilgun design.

Jon Poniatowski I: Poland begans a military expidition to the balkans as a "police action" the current state in the balkans has grone salty since the collapse of the EU in 2020s, currently in exchange for there help, romania, blugaria, moldova and most of the eastern states agreed to a military alliance with the polish commonwealth ecconomically only. the only ones that didnt join were: Greece, Serbia, bosnia, and albania.
