Does Eric's sling shot count?
What Eric needs to realize, is that in the event of unlikely hostilities the National Guard has enough firepower to inflict very heavy and even extreme casualties against the TAF and the TC community.
And if they are unable to bring the reinforcements they require from Turkey due to a naval blockade, then anything is possible......
If the HN naval submarines (Nireus) actually sailed and positioned itself between Cyprus and Turkey in 74, Turkey would not have been able to reinforce the initial invading force of 6,000 men. The TN troop carriers would have been sitting ducks to the torpedo tubes of Nireus, and the outcome in Cyprus would have been very different.
