Pan Asian Coalition

The Pan Asian Coalition is a government that features in Battlefield 2142.

History

The Pan-Asian Coalition (PAC) was a government that formed in the aftermath of a period of political and ecological strife that came as a result of a new Ice Age that began in 2106. It consisted of a coalition of many Eurasian nations with Russia as its lead.

The Cold War began in October 2139 with coordinated PAC invasions from the Persian Gulf to the Baltic Sea.

By 2142, Cerbere Landing was the last EU stronghold on the European continent. However, by the end of the year, freezing temperatures, mass migration and warfare had rendered most of the PAC occupied territories uninhabitable. Desperate to sustain its dwindling population, the PAC changed its military focus to capturing key energy, food and water supplies.

In November, as part of Operation Canute, three battalions led by General Arkadi Petrov entered Minsk, a key EU command center in Northern Europe. The EU's Krieg Panzer 2nd Regiment fiercely defended the city for over four months until the PAC's elite Central Command Group broke through their southern flank, forcing them to withdraw. The Battle of Minsk featured the first frontline use of the militarized Titan, forever altering the character of modern warfare.

By the late summer of 2145, the EU had managed to push the PAC back through Western Europe and now the heartlands of old East Germany and the state of Saxony lay before them. The EU Forces have pushed east where PAC Forces have gathered to make a defensive stand against the enemy.

Overview

The standard rifle for the PAC Rifleman is the Krylov FA-37, a lightweight, reliable, and durable assault rifle that can be cheaply manufactured and used. Also available to PAC soldiers is the Voss L-AR, a cousin of the FA-37.

Technology wise, the PAC is far superior to the European Union. Unlike the projectile-based weaponry of the EU, many PAC weapons fire plasma-based rounds as well as projectile-based weapons, which are even enhanced over regular rounds. They have begun to perfect hover-levitation technology seen most noticeably on their MBT and Assault Speeder. PAC scientists are also the minds behind the IT-33 Active Camouflage and the DS-22 Sniper Decoy, both extremely advanced gadgets that the EU has even been forced to adopt in order to compete. However, this technology can be often outmatched by the EU's techniques, who rely mainly on armored units that can hold their ground. The PAC uses independent research weaponry as well as weapons stolen from European Union such as UAZ-8 Ocelot.

Among the equipment used by its military included:

• IT-33 Active Camouflage :
• DS-22 Sniper Decoy :
• SG-34 Smoke Grenade :
• CM3-N Radar Grenade :
• BJ-2 Combat Knife :
• Krylov FA-37 :
• Bofors Defense Rifle :
• Voss L-AR :
• Baur H-AR :

The PAC T-1 battle walker changed the face of warfare forever.

Vehicles used by the Coalition included:

• T-39 Bogatyr : the PAC military developed an assault vehicle to handle these new diverse conditions by employing a more versatile anthropoid structure. Later duplicated by the EU forces in the form of the L5 Bogatyr, the PAC T1 Battlewalker changed the face of warfare forever. The T39 Bogatyr is the most recent adaptation, shielded with full-coated, high-impact armor and an embedded ADS and supplied with an assortment of attack options, counting radar-guided, high-damage impulse rockets and a pair of heavy-duty auto-cannons.
• Type 21 Nekomata : utilizing state-of-the-art, air-assisted levitation technology, the Type 32 Nekomata hover tank is the very latest in armored combat, boasting unmatched mobility across almost any topography. Similar to the A-8 Tiger, the Nekomata incorporates NxRA technology into its composite armor base and uses an Active Defense System to ward off high impact, airborne weapon attacks. It also matches the A-8attack capabilities with a driver-controlled cannon and second position repeater.
• BTR-4 Romanov :
• Type 4 Doragon :
• BTR-20 Yastreb :
• UAZ-8 Ocelot :

During the height of the ground war, the Pan Asian Coalition developed the original Titan that were large-scale, civilian transport medium, employed to relocate the refugee population. When the combat escalated into all theaters, the Titan was militarized to serve as both an armored air transport and fortified warship. Reinforced with a comprehensive steel-ceramic matrix shell and fitted with multi-conveyor, synchronized discharge mechanisms, the Titan air-drops assets directly into contention, including infantry teams, gunships and air transports. As well, the Titan is heavily armed with an array of high-tech weaponry, including ion-charged, air-to-surface and air-to-air blasters, making it a devastatingly powerful assault aircraft.

A facility operated by the PAC was Hangar 21 (Russian: Ангар 21) that was a secret military-hangar dug into a mountainside in Siberia.
