History
"This is violation of Voshkod airspace!"

-Grumble preparing the launcher

Where most countries comprise their militaries of an army, a navy and an air force, the official armed forces of the Voshkod operate within six distinct branches: The Ground Forces, the Navy, the Air Force, the Airborne Troops, the Strategic Missile Troops and - last but not least - the Aerospace Defence Forces. Being tasked to protect the single largest national airspace on the globe, the members of the VKO are in charge of Voshkod's elaborate network of early warning radars and advanced surface-to-air weapon systems, the most prominent of which is the S-300 missile. Originally dubbed the 'Grumble' by the Guardians of the Tacitus, the missiles can turn a large air space into a no-fly zone thanks to their amazing range and inescapable accuracy. Ever since its introduction in the late 1970s V.C., the missile has been improved and modernized time and time again, giving birth to an entire family of SAMs which were exported to the likes of Elona, Ascalia, and Sapiro, one of the Encantadia members. During the War Against the MLA, some of these missiles almost wound up in the hands of the MLA if it had not been for the intervention of Aquilan special forces. Though their new "Black Hole" Vacuum Imploder missiles, which unlike previous editions also create a vacuum that pulls aircraft near its target, are exclusively used by the Voshkods.
