This page includes equipment used by all branches of the Imperial Defence Force to provide comprehensive overview (instead of having to look through all the articles). Enjoy.

The IDF defines Weapon system to be reliant on several components,

  • Weapon suit
    • Weapon module
    • Ammunition
    • Fire Control System (FCS)
  • Securing Military-logistic of the system
    • Supply of ammunition, spare parts, fuel stores and electric sources
    • Logistic hubs of supplies and supply lines
    • Maintenance (maintenance, repairs, cleaning of weapon suit, diagnostics, calibration and medics) and Replenishment or Repair of lost or broken equipment through use of workshops or other maintenance buildings.
  • Economical and industrially-technological basis for state defence weapon system capabilities
    • Development, testing and production of new weapon systems
    • Upgrades and modification to the equipment
    • General repairs, maintenance and service
    • Training facilities

Furthermore each and every weapon systems needs Technological structure for production of said weapon modules/systems and production chain such as: Resources/materials basis > semi-finished products parts creation > subcontractors for working nodes and modules > completion of the product. The higher technological complexity and advanced the weapon systems is, the more difficult the technological and organizational logistics is by definition.

The Economical and industrially-technological basis has major influence on the ability to replenish or reinforce any losses or needs to acquire new weapons systems and/or other equipment. Current weapon systems has large amount of sub-components produced generally by one factory and disabling the production as a whole due to some components missing. The need for replenishment and new equipment must be fulfilled not only in peacetime but most importantly during war. The volume and amount of equipment must be also kept eye on. As such the IDF does keep a reserve ratio of vehicles to replenish initial losses.

The need for ammunition for brigade-sized unit is estimated to be 100 tonnes per day in the conflict and 200t/day in the early stages of the conflict.
