The military of [[the Oan Isles]] consists of the '''Oan Defence Forces''' (''Nga Ope Taua Huihui o nga Moutere Oa'' in the [[Oan language]], abbreviated '''ODF'''). The Oan Defence Force is composed of the Oan Navy, the Oan Army and the Oan Air Force. The [[

Line 44:
The first major part of Oan foreign deployment in this war was when it invaded the Yor Isles. The Yor Isles were easier and more familiar for he armed forces to fight in. It is a small insular state with a major city and forested countryside. These are generally considered the optimal conditions for the Oan military to fight in. Forests allowed them to fall back and regroup and conceal reinforcements and supplies. Light artillery allowed them to maneuver quickly. Satellite and aerial reconnaissance allowed them to quickly identify strategic targets such as the Rob Matterson Military Hospital and control major ground transport routes like roads. These strategies were refined and applied meticulously in the Kohatu War.

The fourth attack was on Eidenburg. The navy launched surface to surface missiles on Eidenburg. The navy used guided missiles to prevent widespread damage to property and loss of life. The main aim was to capture the port of Eidenburg and get supplies from that city. Furthermore, the Oan Isles intended to occupy southern
This led to the fifth and most disastrous front of the war for the Oans. They invaded the city of Nuremkastel. They engaged in land combat. Desperate, the
Overall the war was not a loss per se, but it did not yield in benefits that justified the cost. It was a loss in that despite military victories, the Oan Isles did not achieve its major aims. These include installing a puppet government in

==Organizational Structure==
The
The [[Prime Minister of the Oan Isles|Prime Minister]] is practically the highest political authority of the armed forces. This office usually takes the initiative in building military alliances, accessing foreign military technology, getting legislative approval for funding and developing strategic objectives. The Minister of Defence heads the Department of Defence, running the daily affairs of the armed forces, and advises the government on defence policy. The Chief of Defence Staff is the head of the Office of Defence Staff which oversees the operational affairs of the armed forces. They report to the Minister of Defence who in turn reports to the Prime Minister who is symbolically answerable to the Emperor and practically accountable to the National Assembly (especially the Council of the People).
==Funding and resources==
The military is forbidden from undertaking commercial activity or seeking external funding. Thus, it is completely dependent on government disbursals for funding. The government spends an average 30% of its annual expenditure on the military which is approximately 35 billion KRB which is around 4.4% of GDP (3.9% when excluding military aid). The country also receives a massive military aid grant from [[Great Morstaybishlia]] to help it procure and develop war capabilities and was instrumental in helping the nation develop fire power in the [[Caven Sea|Caven]] and [[Morstaybishlian Sea|Morstaybishlian Seas]]. Reliable sources have estimated that the aid stands at around 5 billion kirib a year. During the Auroran-Pacific War, an additional 0.2% of GDP was spent on the armed forces, making it the costliest war in which the Oan Isles has participated. However, adjusted for inflation, the budget has barely increased since 2017.
The Oan Isles benefits from a cutting-edge domestic arms manufacturing industry. [[Oan Arms]] is currently the major domestic supplier of the ODF. Considerable public and private sector research and development funding along with foreign investment enables the industry to develop and produce advanced military equipment. Among its foremost products are surface to air missile defence systems, combat helicopters, infantry gear and middle-weight armored fighting vehicles and unmanned aerial combat vehicles (in collaboration with [[Kuthernburg]]). The country sold the publicly owned Oan Shipwrights to a Kuthern shipbuilding company, which diminished its heavy military vessels production capabilities.
The country imports military equipment, specifically ships, stealth and bomber aircraft and heavy main battle tanks from foreign suppliers specifically Great Morstaybishlia and Kuthernburg. The country has imported weapons from Stratarin and the [[Ethalria (Republic)]].

===Suppliers===
The primary supplier of handguns, safety gear, body armour, handheld rocket launchers and guided missiles is [[Oan Arms]], a state-owned for-profit corporation of the government of the Oan Isles. [[Metatron Corporation]], a privately owned for-profit company originating from the Oan Isles, produces integrated circuits for the military.
The primary supplier of naval vessels is the Oan subsidiary KAE-Oan Shipyards of [[KAE Systems plc]] (from [[Kuthernburg]]). Most the ships are assembled in the city of [[Tauranga a te Toka]]. But a lot of design, research and development is done in Kuthernburg and many intricate parts are shipped to the Oan Isles for assembly. This company also has a joint venture with Oan Arms to produce the Silent Killer unmanned aerial combat vehicles.
The primary supplier of rocket launch, military satellites, radar and other electronic warfare systems is [[Ferrus Industries]], a armaments company from [[Great Morstaybishlia]]. The primary supplier of armored personnel carriers, infantry fighting vehicles, towed and self propelled artillery and main battle tanks is [[Trech]], another major company from Great Morstaybishlia. The primary supplier of aircraft is [[Allegiance]] from [[South Hills]].
[[Ethalria (Republic) |Lower Ethalria]] was a provider of military equipment such as handheld guns and munitions. However, following the take over of that country by a fascist military dictatorship which renamed that country to [[Uspalria]], all sale of military equipment ceased. Even though it was eventually defeated and partitioned into [[Sarentria]] and [[Drakaland]] (now members of the [[United Nations of the Auroran Continent]]), sales of military equipment have not resumed. Despite the legality of the moratorium banning sales of military equipment from these countries being challenged in the [[Auroran Court of Justice]] by the respective governments of those nations, there is no traction to restore these sales.
[[Stratarin]] formerly provided Cherkov J-10 multi-purpose jets for the Oan Air Force. However following the coup in that country by [[Mikhail Starikov]] which overthrew [[Viktor Drugov]], no sales of military equipment have resumed.
