North Anarian Air Defence System

The North Anarian Air Defence System, most commonly abbreviated to PASPO in Livarian or NAADS in Hallish, is an integrated air defence command and control network combining radars, static and mobile air and missile defence systems and other facilities across four participating nations in North Anaria. The participants of the PASPO are Auresia, Livaria, Nestor and Vittmark. The central command and control headquarters of the PASPO is located at Kalynivka in Livaria, home to the Livarian Air Force's Home Air Defence Command.

The modern PASPO was declared operational in 7682, but the programme has its origins in the 7670s under a Livarian initiative to contain the perceived Orderist threat posed by the Stolvic Commonwealth, specifically Helreich. The Livarian concept sought to bring multiple anti-Orderist nations in the region together under a shared and mutually beneficial system that would enhance regional reconnaissance and early warning systems. The initial PASPO system introduced in 7677 enhanced intelligence sharing and integration of regional air defence and radar assets, but the expanded PASPO system rolled out in 7682 has also created an integrated command and control network. Livarian military advisers and air defence system operators provide logistical and operational support across the PASPO network, with Livarian-supplied Morchenko VB-17 and modernised Lkh-55M radars forming an important capability that enhances interoperability across the system.

The Livarian Air Force's Home Air Defence Command headquarters is located in Kalynivka, which also serves as the headquarters of the entire North Anarian Air Defence System. It also serves as the operational headquarters of the Integrated Home Air Defence Network (IDMPO), which is Livaria's integrated air defence system within PASPO. The IDMPO operates thirteen Remote Radar Station (DRSs) across Metropolitan Livaria, including seven Morchenko VB-17 and six modernised Lkh-55M radars, all of which report back to the Control Centre at Kalynivka. However, Livaria's IDMPO also integrates naval air defence assets into its network, and by extension that of the PASPO system more broadly. These so-called 'outer layer home air defence nodes' work in tandem with the 'inner layer home air defence nodes' operating on land. As the leading military partner in the PASPO, Livaria is unique in operating a Ballistic Missile Early Warning System (BMEWS) at Lityn-Podilska airbase, which by extension provides early warning capabilities to the wider system.

Vittmark

The Vittmarker air defence system is a combination of fixed radar installations, ground based mobile installations and aerial early warning and control systems, all under command of the Air Force regiment L16. Fixed radars are located at all military air bases and fields, as well as long range and over-the-horizon systems located on several mountain tops near the outer borders and on Hjosön island. The L16 headquarters are located at Hässlehed Air Force Base in southern Ådalen. Airborne units are installed as non-movable radar on the military version of the AVFAB G40 twin-engine turboprop aircraft. It provides lower drag and thus longer operational times, but has a dead zone directly behind and in front of the plane, with a 120 degree zone of scan on either side of the airframe. It is capable of tracking ships, planes and missiles up to 190-250 mi (300-400 km). Mobile units PANTO are radar-based surveillance and air defence command and control systems mounted on trucks, that can be installed freestanding as well. These units play an important role in the defensive force dispersal of aircraft and its supporting ground operations, a vital part in Vittmark's tactical strategies against larger militaries in Helreich and Aedeland. Their range varies from 40 to 100 km depending on the power unit and length of the extendable arm.
