===Military===
Oyashima has a modest but highly-trained military broken into the Army, the Fleet, the Aerospace Defense Force, and the Cyber Corps. In total the military has 350,000 active-duty members (105,000 Army, 175,000 Fleet, 53,000 Aerospace Defense Force, and 17,000 Cyber Corps) and 886,000 reservists (784,000 Army, 74,000 Fleet, 25,000 Aerospace Defense Force, and 3,000 Cyber Corps). The Army of Oyashima is divided into two main areas of focus areas: mainland defense and island reclamation. The Army's 1st and 2nd Corps are postured to fight a near-peer in an active defense in mainland Oyashima. They designed to fight a symmetrical, conventional battle in the Yokkanai Mountains and the Bac Hoa Plains. The Army's 3rd Corps is an amphibious assault corps with a high level of maritime special warfare units to conduct islands hopping and island reclamation warfare. They are stationed on the inner islands and on mainland Oyashima in recognition that a massive forward deployed footprint would be divided and less effective in defending the home islands. Oyashima's Army have strong partnerships with the [[Army of Burgundie#Foreign_Legion|Army of Burgundie's Foreign Legion]] and increasingly with the [[Arcer Army]].
Oyashima has a modest but highly-trained military broken into the Army, the Fleet, the Aerospace Defense Force, and the Cyber Corps. In total the military has 350,000 active-duty members (105,000 Army, 175,000 Fleet, 53,000 Aerospace Defense Force, and 17,000 Cyber Corps) and 886,000 reservists (784,000 Army, 74,000 Fleet, 25,000 Aerospace Defense Force, and 3,000 Cyber Corps).  
 
The Fleet is Oyashima's maritime combat and defense arm. It has around 300 commissioned ships and submarines, 1000 aircraft, and 175,000 active duty personnel. The Fleet's primary focus is maritime early warning, maritime defensive operations, and amphibious warfare support. They are responsible for the vast swathes of the [[Sea of Capelan]] and the [[Great Expanse]] that border Oyashima. The Sea of Capelan is considered less of a vulnerability as it is borders nothing but the [[Levantine Ocean]]. The [[Great Expanse]] is considered more of a threat vector and as such is more of a priority for sovereignty patrols by the navy. Because it is the second most advanced native navy in [[Audonia]], behind [[Daxia]] it also plays a critical role in international and [[LoN]] missions.
 
The Aerospace Defense Force is the air force and space force of Oyashimane military. Its 53,000 actively duty and 25,000 reservist personnel oversee a fleet of around 700 aircraft, 483 of them being combat aircraft. The focus of the Aerospace Defense Force is aerial early warning, ballistic missile defense, and defense of the airspace of Oyashima. It was the Oyashimane Airforce until [[2018]] when their cyberwarfare elements where moved into the new Cyber Corps and their mission was expanded to include duties of a space force.
 
The 17,000 active duty and 3,000 reservists of the Cyber Corps of Oyashima are focused on cyber and electronic warfare in both a defensive and offensive capacity. It is the newest branch, formed in [[2018]], from cyberwarfare assets of all of the branches, but especially the Aerospace Defense Force. The Cyber Corps is based heavily on the [[Imperial Cyber Corps of Paulastra]].

They are investing in new technologies such as unmanned aerial vehicles, advanced communication systems, and next-generation weaponry. The Army is also working to strengthen its partnerships with other militaries, particularly [[Burgundie]] and [[Arcerion]], to ensure regional security.
====Fleet====
The Fleet is Oyashima's maritime combat and defense arm. It has around 300 commissioned ships and submarines, 1000 aircraft, and 175,000 active duty personnel. The Fleet's primary focus is maritime early warning, maritime defensive operations, and amphibious warfare support. They are responsible for the vast swathes of the [[Sea of Capelan]] and the [[Great Expanse]] that border Oyashima. The Sea of Capelan is considered less of a vulnerability as it is borders nothing but the [[Levantine Ocean]]. The [[Great Expanse]] is considered more of a threat vector and as such is more of a priority for sovereignty patrols by the navy. Because it is the second most advanced native navy in [[Audonia]], behind [[Daxia]] it also plays a critical role in international and [[LoN]] missions.
=====Fleet Organization=====
Fleet High Command: Located in the port city of Hayakawa, the Fleet High Command exercises centralized control over all naval operations. Subordinate commands oversee specific regions and mission sets:
*'''1st Fleet''': Operating primarily in the [[Sea of Capelan]], the 1st Fleet focuses on maritime patrol, anti-submarine warfare (ASW), and search and rescue (SAR) missions. It comprises smaller, agile vessels suited for navigating the Sea's calmer waters.
*'''2nd Fleet''': The larger and more powerful 2nd Fleet patrols the [[Great Expanse]]. Equipped with advanced destroyers, cruisers, and submarines, the 2nd Fleet is responsible for deterring potential aggressors, safeguarding vital sea lanes, and conducting power projection missions.
*'''3rd Fleet''': The 3rd Fleet serves as the Fleet's amphibious warfare arm, closely collaborating with the 3rd Army Corps. It consists of amphibious assault ships, landing craft, and logistical support vessels to project power ashore and support island-hopping campaigns.
*'''Naval Aviation Command''': Naval Aviation Command maintains a mix of fixed-wing maritime patrol aircraft (MPAs) and helicopters for reconnaissance, anti-submarine warfare, and close air support for amphibious operations in conjunction with 3rd fleet and 3rd Corps.
=====Fleet Doctrine=====
The Oyashimane Fleet emphasizes a layered defense strategy, utilizing a combination of surface vessels, submarines, and maritime patrol aircraft to secure its territorial waters. Fleet doctrine revolves around:
*Sea Denial: Preventing enemy fleets from entering Oyashima's territorial waters and disrupting their ability to project power.
*Power Projection: Demonstrating Oyashima's naval might and safeguarding its interests abroad through participation in international exercises and [[LoN]] missions.
*Amphibious Warfare: Providing critical support to the 3rd Army Corps for island landings and operations.
=====Fleet Equipment=====
Destroyers form the backbone of the Fleet's surface warfare combatants, complemented by frigates, corvettes, and patrol boats for various missions. Oyashima possesses a fleet of advanced diesel-electric and AIP (Air-Independent Propulsion) submarines for stealthy patrols and strategic deterrence. Fixed-wing MPAs like the {{wp|P-8 Poseidon}} and helicopters like the {{wp|SH-60 Seahawk}} provide vital eyes-in-the-sky for reconnaissance, ASW, and close air support.
=====The Future of the Fleet=====
The Fleet is continuously modernizing to stay ahead of potential threats. There has been a large investment in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are being explored to enhance situational awareness and operational efficiency. To hone its international cooperation and to engage in soft power projection, the Fleet actively participates in joint exercises with [[Burgundie]] to improve interoperability and regional security. As potential adversaries develop advanced capabilities; the Fleet is adapting its tactics to counter these threats and ensure continued control of its territorial waters by investing in Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) strategies.
====Aerospace Defense Force====
The Aerospace Defense Force (OADF) is the air force and space force of Oyashimane military. Its 53,000 actively duty and 25,000 reservist personnel oversee a fleet of around 700 aircraft, 483 of them being combat aircraft. The focus of the Aerospace Defense Force is aerial early warning, ballistic missile defense, and defense of the airspace of Oyashima. It was the Oyashimane Airforce until [[2018]] when their cyberwarfare elements where moved into the new Cyber Corps and their mission was expanded to include duties of a space force.
=====Aerospace Defense Force Structure and Organization=====
Aerospace Defense Force High Command is situated at Fort Kyoshin and serves as the OADF's central nervous system, directing all air defense and combat operations. Subordinate commands manage specific sectors and mission areas:
*'''Air Defense Brigades''': Strategically positioned throughout Oyashima, these brigades are responsible for maintaining the air defense network. They utilize surface-to-air missile systems (SAMs) and advanced radars to detect, track, and engage hostile aircraft and missiles.
*'''Air Combat Squadrons''': Equipped with interceptor fighters and multirole combat aircraft, the 14 Air Combat Squadrons are the first line of defense against aerial incursions. They are trained for air-to-air combat, close air support for ground forces, and electronic warfare.
*'''Air Transport Brigades''': These 5 units provide critical logistical support, deploying transport aircraft to ferry troops, equipment, and supplies throughout the archipelago.
*'''Space Operations Squadron''': (established [[2018]]) The Space Operations Squadron unit marks Oyashima's foray into space defense. Initially focused on space situational awareness (SSA) and monitoring near-Earth space, it has aspirations for future space control capabilities.
=====Aerospace Defense Force Training and Doctrine=====
*'''Integrated Air Defense System (IADS)''': This system combines ground-based radars, early warning aircraft, and surface-to-air missiles to create a layered shield against aerial threats.
*'''Air Superiority''': Maintaining control of Oyashima's airspace through robust air combat capabilities deters aggression and protects ground forces.
*'''Aerospace Power Projection''': The OADF can project airpower abroad in support of international missions and [[LoN]] operations.
=====The Future of the Aerospace Defense Force=====
The OADF is constantly evolving to address emerging threats and advancements in aerospace technology and as such is the most innovation-friendly branch of the Oyashimane Armed Forces. In the first half of the 21st century they are focused on acquiring and integrating next-generation fighter jets like the {{wp|F-35}} to maintain a technological edge. They have made massive investments in advanced missile defense systems to counter potential ballistic missile threats. As the Space Operations Squadron matures, the OADF aims to develop robust space situational awareness and potentially explore space control capabilities.
====Cyber Corps====
The 17,000 active duty and 3,000 reservists of the Cyber Corps of Oyashima are focused on cyber and electronic warfare in both a defensive and offensive capacity. It is the newest branch, formed in [[2018]], from cyberwarfare assets of all of the branches, but especially the Aerospace Defense Force. The Cyber Corps is based heavily on the [[Imperial Cyber Corps of Paulastra]].
