Panamoan Army

The **Panamoan Army** (In short for PAR Army) is the land service branch of the Armed Forces of the Panamoan Republic. It is one of the eight Panamoan uniformed services, and is designated as the *Army of the Panamoan Republic* in the P.A.R Constitution. As the oldest and most senior branch of the PAR military in order of precedence, the early-ish and modern Panamoan Army has been proven to be one of the most powerful armies in Nexus Prime, albeit heavily contested by the Evalkan Imperial Army and their fellow branch, the Amphibious Panamoan Marine Corps.

## Structure

The Panamoan Army is a uniformed service of the Panamoan Republic and is part of the Department of the Army, which is one of the three military departments of the Department of Defense. As a branch of the armed forces, the mission of the Panamoan Army is "to fight and win our Nation's wars, by providing prompt, sustained land dominance, across the full range of military operations and the spectrum of conflict, in support of combatant commanders". The branch participates in conflicts both Nexus Prime and other locations and is the major ground-based offensive and defensive force of the Panamoan Republic.

They are also criticized for their decent marksmanship, especially soldiers equipped with carbines.

### Equipment

#### Uniform

The Army has the most drastic revisions in their uniforms in the Panamoan military; the Olive green standard uniforms dates back to the early 18th century and the service uniform to the early 20th century.

The **Panamoan Army Combat Utility Uniform** (PACUU) is the current battledress uniform of the Panamoan Army, that are camouflaged in the "Works in all environments" but actually an urban specialized camo, the Spectral Camouflage, or the civilian yet military adopted Scorpion Camouflage. The Army requires coyote brown rough-out combat boots, either hot weather or temperate weather versions, that can provide sufficient insulation, protection, traction and mobility while providing a rudimentary camouflage.

The Panamoan Army learned their mistake on implementing the Spectral Camouflage pattern and fielded Cypher Precision's heavily proven Aridcore desert camouflage pattern.

#### Personal Protection

A modern day soldier notably dons the successor of the LCH Helmet, the Improved Combat Helmet; Recently they started using the FLUX Helmet. For eye protection they use Cypher Eye Protection/Rubicon TCG goggles and wears the Modular Infantry Vest ass standard, but the latest Modular Interceptor Ballistic Vest manufactured by Ceradyne Corporation and Rubicon Industries are used nowadays. In 2014, the Army are following a strict Armor policy from the Department of Defense, no personnel should be going in military deployments without any headwear, and optional but highly durable, comfortable lightweight shoulder, arm and leg protective pads are available, being an inseparable part of the soldiers' current gear.

Panamoan Army Delta HAWKs utilize the highly customizable Ceradyne Hi-Cut helmet, and wear "featherweight" modular plate carriers. They utilized the Scorpion Camouflage as their standard camo pattern for their uniforms, protective gear and equipment. They also fielded the FLUX Helmet in 2021, hoping to replace the current CTH Helmet.

Soldiers in the 60-80s wear Flak jackets for protecting themselves from Shrapnel, and provide limited protection against handgun rounds, with little to no resistance against blunt weapons. They wear a machined steel MK6 Helmet, notably concealed with natural foliage such as leaves and bushes.
