What military technologies does each country excel at?

Switzerland - Defensive Weaponry

Here’s a cannon disguised as a rock.

Another one. In the barn

These disguised cannons are stationed all over the country in undisclosed locations as well as bunkers in every home in Switzerland and hollowed out mountains for shelter.

This is the 35mm Anti Aircraft gun made by Rheinmetall Air defence.

Delivers 1100 rpm at 1175 m/s and a kill distance of up to 4km. The round on the far right is 35mm ammunition. The length of your forearm.

These are just a taste of the Swiss Defence arsenal.

The same 35mm turret just placed on a wheeled AFV for maneuverability and quick deployment in the field.

This is the Skyshield Sensor Unit that can detect any incoming target (plane, drone, missile, mortar) from 20 km away. It is connected to those large guns and allows the entire system to be fully automated without the need for gunners in the field.

Due to Switzerland’s Neutrality, they need to ensure that they can protect themselves no matter who the threat is and without having to rely on any allied assistance.
