## Doctrines

### Overall Doctrine

Lerza fights attacking its opponents in kinetic and non-kinetic ways, to stop their ability across the board fight, freezing all parts of their courses of action. This is done by the CCC and ISC taking offensive and defensive measures, along with the kinetic forces of Lerza not just attacking frontline targets but targets all through enemy lines via indirect attacks. These measures of kinetic and non-kinetic attacks exist all throughout the military with units and equipment having a notional ability to directly attack military targets but engage in electronic or informational warfare in the battle space. This means that drones are very important for Lerza with them being used in supporting roles throughout the military for recon and observation. This allows for the freeing up of manpower for other duties on the battlespace.

### Army Doctrine

The Army operates with a select number of Division types which are task organized into large Corps, Armies, and Army Groups. With the Army and Army Group being the main deployable force Lerza will use. Lerza's ground troops focus on wide scale coordination between units to take on multiple objectives at the same time to disrupt the ability of the enemy to defend against the force. Lerza also makes use heavily of drones for both recon and combat operations seeking to maximize the amount of information they have on the battlefield to know where to hit the enemy and break them in total, while denying the same. In offence Lerza makes use of mass firepower from indirect and airpower to find and break points in the enemy line with a follow on of heavy armored and airborne forces to break though the enemies line. In defensive operations Lerza creates a complex network of defensive lines and fall back points to defend against enemy attacks making use of misdirection to force the enemy to attack positions that Lerza wants them to attack to weaken the enemy to allow for counter attacks.

### Air Force Doctrine

The Republic Aerial Security Forces provide the air cover in planetary engagements via the use of a select number of platforms which provide air superiority and ground attack in combat. This is done by the use of stealth aircraft with long range missiles seeking to engage the enemy outside of their engagement distance, along with the close coordination with drones to further provide a combat edge in the skies in any planet. When supporting ground forces the Air Force makes use of long range standoff munitions, and suicide drones to seek out key targets and destroy them.

### Navy Doctrine

The main mission of the navy is coordinating high-level planetary recon with planetside air and land forces, to provide top cover and protection in space to planetside forces. Along with an ability to engage in deep space combat to maintain a clear zone of space of hostile fleets. This is done by 4 different commands which are task organized into combat groups the commands being Carrier Force, Battle Force, Invasion Force, and Planetary Defense Force. The Carrier Force is Lerza's main force for naval engagements with the versatility of the Carrier still holding from the days of blue water navies. Battle Force operates Lerza's Battleships and Battlecruisers and adds an armor protection to fleets allowing for the carriers to operate freely in naval engagements. The Invasion Force serves as the main linkage for getting ground troops onto planets for any number of operations and works with the other two commands for helping get troops to the ground. The Planetary Defense Force operates some of Lerza's lightest combat ships, with their main job being to provide a defensive force against enemy attacks for planets Lerza controls.

## Organizational Breakdown

There are three levels in Lerzan military ground organization the Unit which Battalion below, Formation which is from brigade to Corps, and lastly Command which is Armies and up. Lerza Units are mostly organized into single armed units with combat support and non-combat units being split up to create combined armed units on an has need bases. Formations are the most common combat force for Lerza with them having a full range of combat support and non-combat units to maintain combat operations even when cut off from other or higher up formations or commands. A common theme with Formations will be the assignment of combat Aircraft and heavier combat elements to allow for a higher punching power within Formations.

Lerzan Corps are made up of 5 Divisions split in-between Infantry Divisions and Armored Divisions, the only exception is Airmobile which are pure in just Air Mobile Divisions. Next up is Armies which are made up 4 Corps in total making for 20 Divisions, for Armies marked as Infantry there is a 80/20 split between Infantry and Armored Divisions and in Armored Armies a 60/40 split between the two.

Field Armies have a Support Army which is capable of doing of full sustainment of it's other armies
