Technology Developement

Hodgeania's scientists are currently developing several new technologies. First we have discovered a new armor which uses new composite material that has been tested and proven to stop most ballistic rounds as well as providing protection from missiles strikes. They will be equipped on the M-17Barbarion Tank. This has a .50 caliber machine gun armor pierceing as well as a 125mm cannon whith auto levleing lazer targeting auto reloading capacitys. We have also ventured into aeronautical engineering and have come up with several new designs. These new models include the T-REX-A17 attack helicopter which is made up of radar absorbing materials that make them harder to detect. They can accommodate missiles and use an advanced muffler and exhaust technology that makes them hardly audible and helps keep thermal ordinance from locking onto its heat trail. It also is equipped with two 20mm single barrel cannons that fire smart bullets made of depleted uranium and have been test and can penetrate a 2ft thick concrete wall. The next aircraft in development is the R34-A fighter/bomber. It also uses radar absorbing material and advanced muffler/exhaust systems. They can be equipped with 8 missiles or 6 bombs. They are extremely fast at Mach 2.5 un-sustained. They are also very agile. We should role out 50 units of each from our weapons development centers within the weak.

We are also currently developing our own Battleship. It called the HMS. Eclipse its power source is a high efficencly nuclear reactor that propels the ship at 50 knots maximum speed un-sustainible. The reactor at full output generates 10,000 hp at the screws. The ship is 500ft long and about 100ft. wide. It has 5 120mm canon turets with two in the back and 3 in the front they are each equiped with two 120mm cannons. It also is equiped with a new kind of depth charge that uses high frequency sound waves that dissorent ships and give me time to escape. They also have explosive depth charges that are triggered by a smalle nuclear warhead that makes an explosion 1000 times greater than a stick of dinomight. It also is equped with 20 ICM compatible silos but in none nuclear situation can ocomodate chemical or cruise missles. We have advanced sonar and use thermal imaging to detect the highly advance subs. but that will not be completed for 5 years.

One other program on our agenda is by the end of this decade we are going to send a man to the moon. We have develope a Jupiter 1 rocket and when we reach it we will only run a series of space walks and take samples and test of the lunar soil.

Firstly, don't make your helicopter stealth. It's an attack helicopter, so it's operating close to the ground, usually in broad daylight. Stealth will just make it heavy and cumbersome.

Secondly, because stealth is heavy, if your fighter is almost fully stealth, it won't even manage Mach 1. I think the B-2 spirit is a subsonic airplane.

Moozimo, stealth isn't heavy. The B2 is subsonic because of its design and engines. The F-22, which is very stealthy, can break Mach 1 no prob.

Sorry, I meant bulky. I read it somewhere - Radar Absorbant Materials or something. Never mind :roll:

RAM isn't anymore bulky than standard aircraft skin. All RAM is is a layer of material aplied to the aircraft's skin.
