After the successful tests and development of the T-98 'Saddam Hussein' tanks, an export version of this great tank has been created. The T-98E is ready to be exported for a fee of 7,800,000 Dinars ($6,000,000 USD) per tank. Tests show that the T-98 tank is much more powerful than the M1A2 tank of the American army and has been able to defeat the M1A2 tank in direct combat.

We are amazed by this new tank, although this seems to be based on our Type 98 series.

We will place an order of 1500. Total is $9 billion USD.

We are glad to do business with the People's Republic of China again. We will have the state factories work as quick as possible to build all fifteen hundred T-98E tanks.

The Central Bank of Al Anbar has received the money wire. We expect the first delivery of one hundred T-98's within the month.

OOC: Indeed. My original T-98 is based on a Chinese design, American fire control systems, Ukrainian transmission and engine, and a more powerful 125mm gun based on the Russian 125mm 2A46M. :)

This T-98E is watered down though and is mostly based on Russian parts.
