Unit Size Chart:

Some people may wonder “How many soldiers are in each infantry unit?” or “How many jets are in this Fighter Unit?”

So here is a handy chart for reference:

Infantry Units (Normal, Airborne/Para/Paratrooper, Marine and Mechanized): 450-500 Soldiers (If the unit is mechanized then also 45-50 infantry vehicles, normal 'Infantry Units' also have 30-40 trucks for the troops to ride in)

Tank, Recon, Anti-Tank and other Armored Units: 50-60 vehicles

Artillery Units (Towed, Self-Propelled and Rocket): 30-40 artillery guns/artillery vehicles/rocket vehicles. Plus the crews needed for each weapon system. (Towed Artillery Units also have 30-40 trucks/prime-movers to pull the guns to and from firing positions)

Commando Units: 100-150 Commando soldiers (although usually 10 man teams are used for special operations)

Fighter/Attack/Strike Bomber Aircraft Units: 30-40 Planes

Tactical Bomber/Strategic Bomber/Anti-Ship/Anti-Sub/AWACS and Transport Aircraft Units: 20-30 Planes

Helicopter Units: 30-40 Helicopters

Ships/Submarines: Each ship or sub ‘unit’ is equal to 1 ship or sub, these are the only units you buy separately, you buy each ship and sub.

Note: Every unit also has several support vehicles, fuel, ammo etc.. these are considered organic to the unit and you need not worry about them

When ancient Rome was near defeat,
the invincible Tenth Legion was raised:
they beat the barbarians on the battlefield
and Rome gained peace with honour again.
When the traitor, on September the eighth,
left the fatherland in infamy,
the Tenth Flotilla was raised from the sea
and it brought weapons at the cry for honour!

Oh our Tenth Flotilla,
you that mocked England,
you victorious on Alexandria,
Malta, Souda and Gibraltar,
you already victorious upon the sea,
now even on the dry land
you will win!

To you Italian ships, stolen from us
not in battle but by treason,
and to you, our prisoners and dead brothers,
we swear:
we swear that we'll came back,
let this be God's and the Flag's will.
We swear that we'll fight
until we obtain an honourable peace!
