Not so very long ago, it seemed as though everyone, not just the Voshkod, believed the Voshkod's Red Army to be unstoppable. Countless battle tanks, overwhelming air power, and legions of infantry comprised the largest and most powerful military force ever assembled. This mighty army suffered terrible losses to the Aquilans and Alliance in the 2004 V.C. invasion. This blow was devastating; the Aquilans swept in and finally achieved a debatably decisive stale-mate with its old arch-enemy. Nevertheless, the Voshkod Army survives, thanks to the leadership of certain surviving officers and some good old fashioned Voshkod pragmatism.

Lunafreya denies allegations that the Voshkod Army is attempting to rearm, but emerging details of new combat-ready forces seem to contradict those claims. For example, the Socialist Union of Voshkod would like you to believe that its recently-unveiled vehicle, best known as the VZG-3071 Grinder Tank, is nothing more than an industrial-strength road roller based on the T-10M Bull build to smooth out pavement and clear wreckage in the Union's dozens of ruined cities. If this were true, why would the Grinder have military-grade armour and decidedly unsafe top speeds? And why would manufacturers directly linked to the Red Army be responsible for the Grinder's manufacturing? This observation was the result of Aquilan agents sent into Eorzea to spy on their newest military hardware.

Trivia

 * In Gaiaterra, the Grinder Tank's roles combines from Uprising and Red Resurrection and the chassis is based on the T-10M.
