IC: Just recently the Empress of our nation charged a group of experts, known as the Borden Commision, to make a study of our Armed Forces Force Projection Capacity(FPC), in other words, she wanted to know how much our military can haul at one time, the Borden Commision reported that we can haul up to 30,000 soldiers, or 3,000 average vehicles at one time, this has been deemed unacceptable, while we are shifting our Seat of Government off of Earth, we intend to leave some people on Earth, and we will need to be able to move forces around, the Empress has now ordered the construction of 300 more of our Soyokaze-Class helicopters, each of which can carry 100 people, or 10 vehicles, this will double our Force Projection Capacity, more craft will be built soon enough.

That is both intresting and good to know.

We ran our V-44 War Movers, which seem similar to your new helicopters, but now we run mainly VTOL or NVTOL cargo planes.

The bigger stuff is handled by normal planes of course.

Indeed it is, we intend to use some large, Russian craft as well.

For massive airlifts, we reccomend the "Drop Box"

Basically, fly over your drop point and just drop everything from the air... anything from troops to big ol' tanks.

Raysia: Interested.:) If you can't find what you want on our Catalog page ( http://www.bateshome.com/jordan/rmtdex.htm ) then maybe we can work on something together that will fit your needs.

Our current works-in-progress include wing-in-ground transports, as well as large-scale VTOL cargo planes.

While we're looking around, we have found our interest is perked by the RT-3307 "Sky Base", a most interesting craft, you sell them? and yes, equipment designed for our needs could help.

yeah, the Sky Base is available... not really a wartime craft though, as it is extremely light and relatively unarmored.

Telegram me if you have any projects you want to see or want help with.

OOC: Sacking out for now.

IC: Be ready for some private communications, we have some ideas.
