Uh, Earthworm tell them him about their military strength.
OK, since you asked so nicely.
Their military strength is very weak. Their fleet consists of battle groups many times centered around light/escort carrier (like the Tarawa (Tarawa was renamed to Independence after the Landreich bought her), they bought 4 or so of them after the TK war). After the TK war, Max Kruger (the president of the Landreich) started bying a LOT of ships from Confed. Most of their fighters are older Confed designs that many times are heavily modified (like the Ferret with an engine from a corvette
) they include Broadswords, Ferrets, Raptors, Hornets, Rapiers, and so on. Most of their capships are either old and obsolete Confed ships, or ships that weren't any good at the time they were build. However in False Colors, the Landreich did recover a Kilrathi Bhantkara class carrier, with about 60 operational fighters (Vaktohs, Dralthis, Darkets, Strakhas, and Pakhtans), and 20-30 other craft (like shutles and electronic warfare fighters with very little weapons, but capable of emiting so much energy to make the enemy think they're capships) IIRC. But unfortunetly since FC we didn't hear anything about the FRL, and unless Origin decides to use them in a game we won't be seing them for some time.
