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 Uspalrians caused the nuclear plant to self destruct. This led to a large nuclear irradiation that killed all the Oan soldiers in the area. The radiation made it virtually impossible for the Oan Isles to continue to its land invasion. It had lost a lot of resources and a strategic advantage, so it held out at Eidenburg until the war was declared over shortly after.
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 Uspalria and placing southern Uspalria under military occupation. Although the Uspalria was parititoned and the military junta was usurped, the neither [[

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)]]. Uspalrian imports were significantly diminished during the existence of the Uspalrian regime, but smaller arms sales have tentatively resumed under the new governments of [[Sarentria]] and [[

===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.
===Vessels===

And an undisclosed number of transport and support vessels. Excluding the vessels mentioned above, the Oan Navy has 2 destroyers and 1 cruiser under construction, scheduled for release in 2023 and there is 1 minesweeper, 1 diesel powered air propelled stealth submarine undergoing maintenance and repairs schedule for completion in 2023. Of the vessels currently in active service 1 destroyer and 1 minesweeper will be decommissioned in 2023.
===Aircraft===
The Oan Air Force has the following air craft

===Land vehicles and artillery===
The army does not focus on conventional warfare. This proved decisive in the attempted and failed invasion of Uspalria. The country lacked the logistical capabilities and heavy fire power and sheer numbers needed to maintain a large presence in a country as vast as Uspalria. Thus, it mainly focuses on self-propelled artillery, infantry fighting vehicles, mid-range fighting vehicles and a few main battle tanks. It thus developed highly potent rocket-launching land systems and has a large stockpile of mines. The mines have faced considerable criticism which restricted their use in the APW.
