Sustainment

The platoon is designed for short-duration independent action. Each rifle squad carries its own internal sustainment package through its assigned CT-32, while the platoon HQ / reserve CT-32 carries additional ammunition, water, rations, and medical supplies for redistribution.

The reserve CT-32 is intentionally kept lightly loaded so it can serve as:

  • Casualty evacuation vehicle
  • Replacement transport if a squad truck is lost
  • Platoon ammunition redistribution point
  • Limited medical and water reserve
  • Command flexibility asset

Notes

  • The Standard Mobile Infantry Rifle Squad is treated as a locked unit object.
  • Rifle squad internal equipment is not re-expanded on this page.
  • Costs are listed in Gondaran Currency (G), equivalent to 1939 USD.
  • Ammunition and consumable prices use estimated 1939-equivalent values where exact costs were not previously locked.
  • Heavy Weapons Squad Leader personal load remains pending final lock.
  • UV-32 Mule weight and cost remain pending final lock.

Total platoon strength: 52 men
