Space Gang now has Comrade Mikoyan's great-great-granddaughter on side, no less!
Perhaps we could research an airborne variant of the Zone suit?
That's what the Air Force wants, although we already
have orbital drop pod capability with Zone Troopers and have just been waiting to build the space station that launches that particular STEEL RAIN.
We should at least spend 1 dice on steel talons and navy each turn
Navy's gonna need at least 2-3, because we have to get the
Governor shipyards cranked up as soon as possible.
The Talons will sometimes need at least two dice, because their development projects involve retooling existing production lines and slow-walking the project shuts down their supply of new combat vehicles for months.
I think we can expect this to remain a High Priority project for the next phase or two, maybe even three. Two years of backlog is huge.
It's worse than that.
Those are the orders placed by Day One of production. The backlog would be even longer after a month or two.
You are literally advocating he will be incapable of working with Kane if need be for the TCN. You are saying he would let the world go down in a blaze of Tiberium rather than compromise.
Canonically, a big chunk of the plot of
Tiberian Twilight revolves around GDI hardliners
doing exactly that- refusing to compromise with Nod and attacking the Nod-GDI combined alliance
A man who is remarkable within GDI's legislature for being a hardliner against Nod might not be
enough of a hardliner to go into open rebellion against GDI's civilian government or anything... but that's the faction he's comfortable with.
He may not be 100% absolutely incapable of working with Kane ever, but it's going to be
harder, slower, and with fewer flexible options available. Less chance of actually getting a network up.

LOOK AT THAT LAST NAME! The hand of the Soviet military-industrial complex is practically reaching out across time and space to give us someone to work with. If only this was the designated leftist candidate. 😅
Edit: Damn shame about her political flexibility.
I mean, that's how Commie!Mikoyan got by; it's the same thing in a different context and experience base.
I just see leaving Earth as running away from the problem then dealing with it because I bet nod will just seed the death rock on any worlds are guys run to so figuring out how to deal with the death Rock now sounds better to me.
Yeah, but if figuring out how to deal with the death rock doesn't pan out fast enough and we
haven't made adequate provisions to evacuate into space, then many hundreds of millions of people die, either as tiberium overruns our territory or as we try to cram too many refugees into too few overcrowded space stations.
Important thing to note, we want the RZ-7N MARV up running sooner than later as the two MARV helps protect our glacier mining and chicago planned city- so not only does R7-N provide income and RZ mit, it also keeps other sources of income, mit and processing capacity safe (and well we are at 105 spare capacity)
We do, but the South American MARV fleet is much more urgent because the hub is already being harassed heavily by Nod forces and we're explicitly told that they might attack at any time. Closing the window of extreme vulnerability by getting the MARVs up and running is very important. By contrast, the Chicago MARV fleet
isn't under imminent attack.
Mecca is impactful for reasons other than pure Red Zone mitigation; it's a massive political and prestige target for us to save the holy sites.
