The Barracks is Foehn's infantry production structure.
Official description[]
The unusually extensive Foehn Barracks are a gate to their underground facilities, where most of the Revolt's infantry training and weapon assembling is taking place. These uniquely designed Barracks allow a commander to train basic and advanced Foehn infantry. Its presence also allows for the construction of basic defenses. The more Barracks are on the field, the faster infantries are trained.
Foehn Barracks can be upgraded with a Netrunner Protocol or a Knightfall Protocol compotent, the latter of which is exclusive to the Wings of Coronia. Both can provide a Foehn army with additional combat options.[1]
Overview[]
Like all Barracks, the Foehn Barracks is one of three buildings that are available by default once the Foehn Construction Yard is deployed. Therefore, unlike in the vanilla Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge, it is encouraged to build this structure first, so that the commander can churn out Knightframes for offense and garrisoning of civilian structures, Engineers for capturing of vital tech structures, and Lancers for reconnaissance and ore miner harassment as soon as possible, and build appropriate defenses (like the Sonic Emitter) when needed.
The Foehn Barracks trains the following infantry:

AI behavior[]
The AI will only build a Barracks after building a Windtrap in the early game.
The AI will build a second Barracks if they have built a Nanofiber Loom.
If Mental AI Boost is enabled, the AI will build a certain amount of Barracks that do not require a Nanofiber Loom, depending on the difficulty (1 max for Easy, 2 max for Normal and Hard). Combined with the Barracks that requires a Nanofiber Loom, a Hard AI with Mental AI Boost can own up to 3 Barracks.
