Defence Minister Wufei Mukase smirked slightly to himself as he strode through the hallways of the Marimaian People's Palace of Governance, nodding at various bureaucrats. Premier Chiisu Suun had summoned him to a meeting, and tardiness was not an option. He knocked on the heavy wooden doors, and entered the office.

"Ah, Wufei. Sit down."
Wufei took a seat next to Economics Minister Qatra Jiang, who was rubbing the tip of his nose. The Marimaian Cabinet had long ago developed a set of signals to offset Suun's love of surprising them with new policy ideas; Qatra's nose-rubbing meant 'budget increase'. Wufei nodded slightly to him, then turned to face the Premier. Chiisu Suun grinned at them both as cups of tea were passed round by his secretary, while his bodyguard Tro Yao stood nearby, stoic as ever.

"Wufei, as you know our economy is performing better than we'd anticipated, and as a result we have more funds available to play with. Your department will receive a healthy budget increase; please use it to improve our forces. You'll also find a nice new limousine at your disposal..."

Once the meeting ended, Wufei was driven back to the Defence Ministry, where he called a meeting of the Procurement Division. It was time to purchase some more advanced weaponry....

(OOC: basically looking for jet fighters and/or bombers, APCs, artillery, and we're also looking at the possibility of a navy; if you're interested in selling your wares, feel free to tender offers. We're looking for long-term suppliers...)

::Stats available if wanted::

Obviously, these are not really designed for open warfare. They are intended for special forces use or patrolling your nation's waterways. Anyway, if you're not interested, fair enough. If you are interested, we are currently trying to decide upon a price for them; any thoughts?

very well then, comrades; would you wish us to deliver the aircraft or do u want to send a team to retrieve it? The planes are ready and standing by

we also offer a training program in all of our craft; price is about twenty thousand dollars extra per twenty people.

My store:

http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=64208

Hope you like it!!!!

We have decided to send a team over to collect them, as we plan to use them in a parade flyover as their first official act over Marimaian territory.

We are also interested in the training program; while we do have some experienced pilots, we cannot expect them to both train new recruits and fly missions. Would it be possible for you to station a training team in Marimaia? We will be more than happy to accomodate them, and we shall pay you a yearly sum based on how many pilots are trained.

We eagerly await your response.

Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister.

Stats.
Height- 5 m. To give a large feild of fire over the heads of regular troops.

Top speed- 50km/h

Primary Arnament- Striker anti-tank missles designed specally for the project. They are mounted on the sides of the main area. Each side has a 16-round magizene.

The JUNO is ment for bombardment duties. Although it can resist most small arms fire, it is vunerable from attack beneath and behind. So keep it away from the front lines. The rocket pods can hold a number of rocket types, including HE, shrapnel and chemical warheads. WE DO NOT SELL CHEMICAL WARHEADS HOWEVER, NOR DO WE MAKE USE OF THEM. The JUNO is for sale at 15,000 credits each.

DU armor?how dumb are you?Titanium is more resistant,lighter,and wont kill youre troopers.

Very well; we will send over the 411st Training Detachment, the 22nd Electronix Training Detachment, and the 23rd Bomber Training Group and help acclimate your pilots to flying in our aircraft. Altogether, there will be Three hundred personnel, nearly two hundred aircraft, and forty vehicles. However, before we do anything, we wish to inform you that the three training units are some of the most unpredictable and hardest trainers and instructors in the Islandian Banner Armed Forces; however, they get results, and we are confident your pilots will be the top in the region.

training fees will vary on the amount of hours that your pilots are trained; should you wish our instructors to torture your trainees through rigorous and unyielding training, we would recommend that your pilots be trained intensively for about 200-250 airborne hours and an undetermined amount of ground/non flight hours, which will cost about 50 million, since we will need to set up simulators, classrooms, ship in training craft, and of course, exercise our creativity to its limits. However, our hours and parameters are flexible, and should you wish to negotiate, we are always open to suggestions. As of now, the training units are packing their gear and preparing for an extended tour of duty in Marimaia; please also inform us of where we may land in addition to your wishes of the pilot training parameters.

Note- backup crews, logisitix crews, ground crews, and additional personnel are included in our training programs.

East Islandia: The quoted training program for 500 million is perfect for our needs. Although they may be inexperienced, our pilots are no strangers to hard work and discipline; your instructors should find them eager to learn.

Your training units have been granted the Mingzao Air Force Base for their operations, which is located a mere thirty miles from our capital city of Heiphong. If this location is unacceptable, let us know and we will find your units a different location.

Many humble thanks,
Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister.

Very well, then Marimaia; our troops are aboard several IL76 aircraft and are inbound to Mingzao Base. several more IL76s are laden with equipment and will be arriving over the course of the next few days. we look forward to making your flight crews some of the best in the region.

These ships are already in service with the Islandian Navy. Four units are fully completed, with another five under construction, which may take four to five months to complete and outfit, not to mention train crews for. If you wish, we will take cadets on our Xishan class cruisers already in operation and train them as we go along. There is currently space for a thousand trainees aboard twenty different cruisers in the East Islandian fleet.

DU armor?how dumb are you?Titanium is more resistant,lighter,and wont kill youre troopers.

It's also 10x as expensive, but thanks for coming out.

we will accept the money from the Marimaian government, as well as their trainees. Two Tu-154s, three Airbuses, and a Boeing 777 will be at Mingzao Air Base to pick up the trainees; they will serve for six months to a year at a time aboard Xishan class medium cruisers, and at the end of their service, be tested extensively, and be given a cruiser of their own to run.
THe service terms are really up to the ministers of the Marimaian government; we will offer six month, one year, and eighteen month terms (mainly recommended for Captains and priority officers). Family will be offered a residence in a base of their choice, should they wish, and expenses for the program will total about twenty thousand, basically for manuals and tests.

The Ferrussian Coalition of Defense Agencies has some products that might interest you... in particular, the RG-A100 "Crusader" automated artillery system (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=65286). This is a self-propelled, automated, 155mm howitzer, excellent in almost any artillery role.

We're currently working on expanding into the ground vehicles market (tanks, APCs, MLRS, etc.), so we'll keep you updated.

We can custom design a ship to your needs and your budget.

Our shop thread is: http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=41071

For aircraft, I can reccommend Ell and Omz222, for NS and RL aircraft respectively.

I think we'll go with the eighteen month service; they might as well gain as much experience as they can. We shall let the East Islandian government decide on the best base to house families of these cadets, as they have better knowledge of their facilities. The Premier wishes me to extend his personal thanks to East Islandia for their continuing assistance in strengthening our nation.

shall we allow your student trainees to fly them? if so, we will ship them to Da Tranh Island, where exercises are being undertaken. If not, then we will ship them to Mingzao Air base, as that is where most of our advisors are staying.
Please tell us your preference

Island Techtronix, Lotus Systems International, and East Fire Military Corporation would like to sell the rights for the following to the Marimaian People's Republic:

Plans for the Tu22ME, components, and three Tu-22MEs in order for Marimaian engineers to get a grip on assembling the complex craft. Production rights are also to be sold, as are limited sales rights, which means that no more than four hundred bombers may be sold outside of the country. However, after three years, the limited sales rights will be rendered null, and the Marimaians may then sell as much as they want. These rights are sadly put in place becasue of East Islandia's failing economy, as we have turned to selling military surplus wholesale in order to raise our sinking commerce.

THe rights for the Type 96 and Type 98 MBTs will also be sold to Marimaia, as well as two models of each in order to help facilitate reverse engineering and such. As in this one, limited sales rights are also imposed; outside Marimaia, please do not sell more than Two thousand of either one for two years. As int he first case, after the required amount of years, please sell as much as you want.

The price comes to
Tu-22 ME 300 Million USD
Type 96 100 million USD
Type 98 120 million USD

520 million USD all together

We thank East Islandia for their generous sale of production rights to us *$520 million wired*. As for the sales rights, we are not currently involved in major arms sales, as we are currently investing in the modernisation of our military forces.
We are deeply saddened to hear of your economic woes, and would like to extend any support we can to you in your time of hardship.

Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister.

East Islandia Trade Commission

We thank our vaunted allies of Marimaia for their continuing assisstance in buying and promoting our products. Our failing economy is slowly being nursed back to health, thanks in no small part to the efforts of the Marimaians.

East Islandia: Admiral Johto Misumaru has shown a great interest in the J37 fighter, and is very curious about the modified J10 and the J16N4. If you can provide us with a price for the J37, we can guarantee that we shall purchase a number of them. We also look forward to the details of the naval J10 and the J16N4.

FC-57A2

Designed by Freedom Countried R&D, its FC's national Rifle, and has been given to all our Infanatry Divisions!!!!!

Its 6.62 is designed to use FC bullets which are somewhere in between the versatile 5.56 and the powerful 7.62.

Its design is a mix of the tried and tested M4 and OICW, and has replaced the OICW, AKS-74U, G36 and M16 in our armed forces. A LMG version is being developed soon!!!

It has a carbine designed, M16 inspired barrel, with what looks like a smooth gripped M203 underneath. Both barrels merge into an OICW's main body with trigger, but both the grenade launchers 5 round magazine and the assault rifles magazines are at the back. This allows added weight to be added at the front to reduce barrel rising and increase accuracy. It has a stock which is where the magazines are inserted, in front of the shoulder. The grenade launcher can be unattached to leave the Assault rifle, for QB and Airborne use. Also, there is a multipurpose slot where a custom made bayonet, custom made, laser 'pin prick' targeting, custom made torch and custom made MILES system fit into the holder.

The grenade launcher fires either HE or HEAT shells, with the HEAT being a mini version of the tank inspired shell. The assault rifle uses the FC 6.62 rounds which can be brass cased or explosive matrix enclosed. This is the first step my R&D has amde other than a rotary launcher for torpedos, which isnt that special.

An acclimitization program sounds great! We would also like to take you up on your offer of the carrier flight training program; we have found your training programs to be outstanding.

Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister.

the light carrier Divine Empress is in the region right now, accompanied by several Xishan class medium cruisers (including three captained and crewed by your sailors, whom have just graduated training), three Sea Dancer attack subs, four Turbulent class destroyers, and two Kilo class attack subs. We will use the Divine Empress to stage some training flights, and after a certain amount of time, we will move the flights to your own carrier.
the acclimitization program will be held in Mingzao air base and on the carrier.

As always, our forces are happy to impart others with knowledge vital to defending themselves against the forces of evil in the NS world.

East Islandia Training Command

20 x Jiangwei-II Frigates
20 x Luhai Destroyers
10 x Xishan Cruisers
(feel free to suggest alternate frigate and destroyer classes if you have better designs.)

Could you give an estimate on how much this order will cost? In addition, if you require additional facilities or manpower in order to complete the order, we will provide the needed finances. We look forward to your response.

Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister.

North Current Naval Technologies, the main producer of ships in East Islandia, would like to recommend alternatives to the Jiangwei class frigates and the Luhai class destroyers. We feel that they are unsuitable for advanced surface warfare, and with the state of things, would rather see the Marimaian navy sport other ships. Below, we give brief descriptions, and if you wish, we will later give more details, as we would rather keep these ships' specs secret unless you show interest in acquiring them.

Recommendations:
Type 052C destroyers, built by Jiangnan shipyards, Shanghai, and contracted to North Current Naval Technologies as the Type 052C-S. it is vastly more advanced than the Luhai class destroyers, and designed to specialize in anti-air defense.

Typhoon class catamaran guided missile destroyer
A relatively new design, the Typhoon class is a high speed destroyer displacing about three quarters that of the Xishan medium cruiser. Built for speed, air defense, and missile attacks, it is based on a catamaran hull, and is just entering official service with the Islandian navy after four years of development, trial, and unofficial service.

Urgent Tidings class antisubmarine frigate
Also a new design, the Urgent Tidings class combines stealth technology with the best in cutting edge sensors and antisubmarine technology. Equipped with exceptionally ranged sonar, Antisubmarine rockets, depth charges, torpedoes, space for two ASW helos, and combat automation programs against submarines, the Urgent Tidings class has already wargamed several times against submarines, and won most of the time.

HEre are some of our recommendations in specific roles. If you wish to ask us for more ships which specialize in something, we will be happy to respond. Also, several new ships are also in development jointly with Agrigento's Bordo Principale Technologies; we shall notify you when they are available for export.


North Current Naval Technologies

the price for the Xishan class medium cruisers remain the same, about 500 million apiece. The prices for the other ships vary, depending upon your upgrades and customizations, which we will release as soon as you state your interest and as soon as our government clears us to do so.
(OOC: about 5 billion i think; correct me if im wrong, since im REALLY bad at math)

We would like our order to be comprised of the following:

10 x Type 052C-S Destroyers
10 x Typhoon class catamaran guided missile destroyers
20 x Urgent Tidings class Frigates
10 x Xishan cruisers

We would like the standard versions of all ship classes please.

We regret to inform Marimaia that, due to the fact that our country is engaged in a drastic war against the tyranny of Mallberta, we have not yet had the chance to authorize production of all the ships. As a result, if you will allow, we will transfer the production facilities onto Marimaian territory, or possibly sell production rights (not the sales rights) for the Type 052C-S and the Xishan class medium cruisers.
Also, we will ship over three Urgent Tidings Frigates, but our crews must return home immediately afterwards, as we regrettablycannot spare anymore manpower in training your nation, although we would wish to transform your nation into a world power.

If you would like the production rights for the ships, we will list their prices below:

Urgent Tidings.............. $500 million USD per unit

Typhoon class.....$ 650 million USD per unit

Type 052C-S......$200 million USD per unit ($600 million for production rights)

Xishan..... (same as mentioned above)... ($700 million for production rights)


Construction crews will help you set up, free of any additional cost

as an apology to the inconvienience, we will give you the munitions and avionics for free and extend the stay and lower the cost of our training groups, save perhaps the Divine Empress Battle Group, as we may have need of her elsewhere.

We completely understand. We shall accept the movement of production facilities to Marimaian territory; domestic construction crews are on standby to speed up construction of the facilities.

Withdraw as many of your personnel as you require; the defence of China is more important than our training needs. There is no need to apologise for the inconvenience.

Anyway, here is payment for the ships in the order:

*$23.5 billion wired*

If you require any economic aid during the war, let us know.

Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister; Qatra Jiang, Marimaian Economics Minister.

we thank our gracious allies of Marimaia for their understanding and offers of help. We will construct a permanent, official embassy here in your esteemed country later on, after this war, but we are certaint that it will be a long conflict and that eventually, the sons and daughters of the Yellow Emperor and our allies against imperialism will prevail.

We stand ready to go to our deaths.


Premier Qu Yingzi
leader of East Islandia.

Since the current war with Mallberta is on hold, we will continue production of several more Typhoon class destroyers and Xishan class cruisers. Meanwhile, the production facilities have been set up, and our training squadrons are still in place. The Divine Empress carrier group is still offshore, and we have not yet pulled any forces from your region.

if you need anything else that we can provide, please let us know.

We would also like to express our happiness about the fact that East Islandia's economy is now growing once again.

Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister.

The Armed Republic of Unum Veritas has a very expansive storefront that deals almost exclusively with naval warfare. If you're looking at building up a formidable navy then check this store out.

http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=655745#655745

Tne Transdynamics Consortium is willing, under license authority granted by the Federation government, to offer Marimaia the export version of the Unmanned Littoral Interdiction & Defense Submersible (U-LIDS).

http://phalanx.i8.com/custom4.html

The export variant of U-LIDS costs $100 million. Note that this is one-ninth the cost of a Los Angeles-class submarine or one-twentieth the cost of a Virginia-class submarine.

we thank our allies in Marimaia for their confidence in our technology and for their continued support of our economy. The fighters are en route, as are ten advanced flight simulators, to be given to your country, as a token of our gratitude. These simulators are amongst the best, and will undoubtedly improve the skills of your already able pilots by significant amounts.
THe Divine Empress' stay will be extended in Marimaia, pending the arrival of the new fighters.

Below are teh specs for the SPG (Self Propelled, Guided) Anti AIr Defence system, which provides medium-point air defense. This is similar to both the German SPAAG and the Chinese Type 95 SPAAG/SAM system, incorporating several 20mm guns and one Gatling gun for close in combat.

The AT-7000 SPG Anti Air system is basically four 20mm guns, four fire and forget SAMs, and several radar units and a CIWS mounted on an improved Chinese built Type 98 tank chassis.
An electro-optic package mounted on the forward part of the turret includes a TV tracking camera, infrared tracking camera and a laser range-finder which feeds information to the onboard fire-control computer. This calculates the weapon-laying data, and when the target is within range the gunner opens fire. The gunner also has a joystick with which to lay the weapons onto the target.

The TV tracker has a maximum automatic tracking range of 9km while the infrared tracking camera has a maximum range of 6km. The laser range-finder is quoted as having a minimum range of 900m, maximum range of 6,000m and is accurate to +/- 1m.

System reaction time depends on a number of factors. According to tests, in the radar search mode this is 10 seconds while in the optical mode it is about six seconds.

Also, due to the high failure rate in the Islandian Wars of several earlier versions of SPG air defence systems, East Fire Military Corp contracted Xian Electronix to build a passive ECM system that would conceal the search radar from most HARMs and radar-killers. this unit, the WC-5 Countermeasures system, has performed admirably in border engagements with West Islandia, lowering the percentage of destroyed units from 40 percent to 3 percent. In addition to this, EFMC also included a variant of the Type 900S Pop Up CIWS currently used on several Islandian ships, most notably light catamaran frigates, in order to destroy and take out missiles. This component folds into the hull for storage and transport, and folds out on a highly mobile, electronically moved arm. The actual unit itself is a Gatling gun, capable of firing 1000 bullets a second for short engagement times. The Type 9000 has its own guidance and control system, but is reliant on either the SPG's own radar or the radar mounted on the command post.

The radar itself, mounted in the command and control vehicle, is a SJ-5000 ground based airsearch radar, capable of scanning up to about thirty kilometers and with a maximum altitude of five kilometers, with the ability to track about and engage fifty different high speed targets. the information is fed into a W-9 information processor, which sorts out the target info and relays it to the different SPG units, who in turn engage the enemy. However, in case that the Command and Control Unit is destroyed, then the SPGs are equipped with shorter range SE-130 radars, capable of tracking up to ten km and twenty targets.
Communications equipment installed in the battery command vehicles allows it to transmit information in a digital form up to 10km, by standard radio up to 15km and by wire up to 600m.

Perhaps you are interested in a joint project? we thought that point air defense was our weakness until we rediscovered these and put them back into service. But in any case, the joint project may have to wait till later, as we are thrown back into a war against Mallberta. Until then, regular shipments of ships and armaments that you have ordered will continue.

Hmm.....Marimaia would like to purchase:

1000 x AT-7000 SPG units (900,000,000USD)
250 x AT-7000 SPG command posts (250,000,000USD)
250 x rearming vehicles (2,500,000USD)

= 1.1525 billionUSD *money wired*

We would also like to express our interest in the joint project you mentioned; once things with Mallberta subside, we'll talk more.

Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister.

Delivery of the SPG air defense units will commence within the week. Simulators will arrive first to facilitate the transfer of your troops into the systems.

the joint project will be discussed afterwards.

Marimaia would like to place another order with East Islandia for the AT-7000:

1000 x AT-7000 SPG units (900,000,000USD)
250 x AT-7000 SPG command posts (250,000,000USD)
250 x rearming vehicles (2,500,000USD)

= 1.1525 billionUSD *money wired*

The SPG AA units are rolling off the production lines as we speak, and are being put aboard IL76 transports bound for Mingzao Air Base.
In face of increasing vulnerabilities in the area of individual protection, East Islandia and Agrigento have begun a joint research project focusing on body armor and body ergonomics.
Marimaia is invited. The link is below:

Your offer is greatly appreciated. Since we bought the ships, we have constructed two large shipyards, one at Yutu Yinchon and one at Shanjing. We believe that these facilities should help reduce the time taken to refit our ships.

In a somewhat related matter, Leang Naval Concern will soon be unveiling their new vessel prototypes; as a long-term friend of our nation, we invite you to send a delegation to observe Marimaia's first substantial venture into naval design.

Wufei Mukase, Marimaian Defence Minister.

(OOC: I had a really bad cold this week, but now I'm over it I've got a few ideas I want to do)

Very well. North Current Naval Technologies and Tanaka Hydrodynamix will send a delegation of engineers. Lotus Systems Int. and Islandia Techtronix will send a delegation also, to help our Marimaian allies look over their vessels.
(OOC btw, wut kind of ships are they? ANd feel better.)

We also pledge to help Marimaia in whatever ways we can.

We welcome our East Islandian comrades, and are most honoured by your pledge. As always, if East Islandia is in requirement of anything, we will do our best to assist. May the relationship between our nations continue to flourish.

it has been revealed to the East Islandian Independent Committee against Corruption that the former leadership of the companies Lotus Systems International and S1 Systems Dynamix have been guilty of huge fraud. ALso, members of the EI Trade Commission have been found guilty of susbtantially raising prices in order to line thier own pockets in a series of secret documents.

We hereby apologize and return about 1.5 billion USD in overcharged funds. We are sorry that this had to happen (OOC my government is being changed from corrupt to not as corrupt) and we pledge that it will never happn again.
THe guilty perpetrators will be stripped of public office and banished to an island far away from the capital.

As penance, we offer to refit ALL of Marimaia's navy for free, and we have extended the stay of our training units and the Divine Empress Carrier Group.

The funds have been wired back, and fifty brand new J16N4 interceptors are being shipped to Mingzao Airbase.

We sincerely apologize, and we hope that the actions of a few individuals will not cast a shadow on our relations.

From now on, the prices for all aircraft have been lowered substantially.

The Marimaian government applauds East Islandia's anti-corruption campaign, and accepts your offer to refit for free.

It will take a lot more than a few corrupt individuals to harm relations between our nations; if anything, our relations have been strengthened. East Islandia has shown great integrity and honesty, and we are proud to call you friends.

S1 System Dynamix offers to outfit the Marimaian subs with a command interface that will allow the firing of nearly any Islandian, Chinese, and Russian missile, or any weapon designed along those lines. WE also offer to sell them the Type 500S1 missiles, cruise missiles outfitted with scramjet engines capable of Mach 4. These missiles are fresh off the drawing boards and testing runs, and have been used in a war before, against Dark Terror.

These missiles,should u be interested, come in batches of thirty for about 90 million USD (3 million USD per missile).

Marimaia would like to purchase two 'batches' of the Type 500S1. The missile/rocket research which led to the Gou Mang launch vehicle of our space program has also produced the Fu Leng ballistic missile; however, we have yet to begin full production of the Fu Leng, so the Type 500S1 will provide us with a useful start point for our planned strategic missile force. (*180 million USD wired*) If you wish, you can utilise a number of our production facilities to build them on Marimaian soil; that way there is no concern about transporting them.

At present there are only two Yu-Qiang submarines which have been completed, and they are currently undergoing further testing. If our friends in East Islandia could outfit one of them with the proposed command interface, then we can test the improvement in capability before committing to any large-scale outfitting operation.

We will send a tech team over from S1 to evaluate the submarines and see waht they can do to speed up construction. Meanwhile, IL76s and Tu330s are inbound to Marimaia carrying various guidance components and the components for the interfaces, as well as the first thirty of the Type 500S4 missiles with extended range and modified GPS/Satellite guidance for intercontinental use.

It is recommended that the subs have some sort of Antiaircraft ability to combat sub hunting aircraft, such as water launched SAMs. Also, we have excess nine bladed submarine propellers available for no cost if you want them.

At present we have not begun full production of the Yu-Qiang as we are still fine-tuning the design. We were looking at installing a number of the SA-N-5 "Arrow", or an equivalent, as an anti-aircraft capability; what's your opinion?

We would also like to take you up on your offer of the nine-bladed propellors.

The propellers are on their way to Mingzao Air base, five nine bladed surplus propellers from Supply Command. Also, we are transporting about twenty Anshu X4 missiles, modified to be fired underwater. Anshus are long range, high speed missiles capable of defeating ballistic missiles and supersonic, high speed targets. The submarine fired variant sacrifices bit of the altitude, but otherwise, it is quite good at destroying flying objects. The Anshu X4 is comparable to the Aster SAM produced byt eh French and Italians, only with extended range and increased speed and altitude. Included are several test drones, and we hope that you will find the ANshus satisfactory. Otherwise, we would recommend SA-N7 SAMs or mayb those HQ9s modified to be fired underwater.
