The Battering Rams are the military branch of SheepLines and Sheepman's air force. They work closely with the PSF and are basically a mini, speciallised, privatley owned Air Force. Their aircraft are mainly used for troop transort, troop air support, parachute missions and sometimes dogfights. They have a small, airfield near South Pole City called Ovis Air Base.
History[]
At the time SheepLines was taken over by Sheepman, the PSF had a problem. They couldn't get enough air support, as they shared the USA air force with many other armies and militias. So Sheepman decided to start a small, dedicated airforce, commited to helping the PSF. They were the Spec Ops of the air. Using funds that he had earned from his new airline, he bought 3 UH-60s, 2 MH-53s and a C-130 (see list below for current fleet). Over time, as SheepLines got bigger, the profit just kept coming. Sheepman built The Battering Rams into the big airforce they are today.
