M3095A2 APHETS Tractor (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/het-oshkosh2.jpg)
Crew: 2 + 4
Weight: 26,000 kg
Height: 3.55m
Length: 10.6m
Width: 2.6m
Speed: 72 km/h, 45 km/h w/ 79,000 kg payload
Range: 500 km
Payload: 79,000 kg
A modified version of the M3095 designed to transport the massive Dire Wolf and Fullback units. This is also very good for other exceptionally heavy (75,000 kg+) AFVs that are sold by many other manufacturers, who do not provide dedicated transporters for them.
Cost: $360,000 (M3095A2 truck), $40,000 (additional armor kit)

M3095 APHETS Tractor (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/hets-trailoring-m2.jpg)
Crew: 2 + 4
Weight: 20,500 kg
Height: 3.55m
Length: 9.4m
Width: 2.55m
Speed: 75 km/h, 50 km/h w/ 72,000 kg payload
Range: 500 km
Payload: 72,000 kg
The AP replacement for the M1070/1000 HETS combination. In addition to the improvements found in the other AP vehicles, the APHETS is also notably larger and with a greater load than its counterpart, necessitated by the greater weight of many modern tanks, which are simply too much for the basic HETS to handle. This unit can effectively transport all CSJMI-offered AFVs, with the exception of the Dire Wolf Assault Tank and Fullback Assault Gun.
Cost: $320,000 (M3095 truck), $40,000 (additional armor kit)

M1070 HETS Tractor (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/het-with-M1-on-trailer-side-view.jpg)
Crew: 2 + 4
Weight: 18,594 kg empty, 39,002 kg loaded, 104,943 kg (max, including loaded trailer)
Height: 3.594m
Length: 9.09m
Width: 2.59m
Speed: 72 km/h
Range:
Fording: 0.711m
This is the tractor portion of the HETS (heavy equipment transporter system) designed to haul heavy AFVs such as tanks and self-propelled howitzers. This monster has 4 axles and a powerful engine to help it support and tow massive units up to the weight of an M1 main battle tank. Though it is not a well-known (or respected) fact to those outside the military, heavy armored vehicles are quite temperamental, and suffer heavy stress on the suspension and drive train when moving. Thus, vehicles like this are used to transport them through rear lines, easing maintenance and preventing the loss of vehicles to breakdowns prior to operations, which would otherwise seriously degrade the combat capability of a unit.
Cost: $255,000

M3092 APPLS Tractor (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/PLS-unloading-containers.jpg)
Crew: 2 + 1

Range: 500 km
Cargo: 32,654 kg (16,327 kg truck, 16,327 kg trailer)
A version of the venerable Palletized Load system truck/trailer combination, which has found general use as a heavy transport system. This has slightly higher payload capacity compared to the PLS (36 tons compared to 33), but is otherwise similar in capability, with the exception of the improvements found in the other Alternate Propulsion vehicles.
Cost: $300,000 (M3092 truck w/ winch), $260,000 (M3093 truck w/o winch), $25,000 (additional armor kit)

Cargo: 16,440 kg (including flatrack), 14,966 kg (w/ M1077), 12,902 kg (w/ M1), 14,626 kg (w/ M3)
The palletized load system is a truck / trailer combination that’s designed to be able to self-load heavy containerized cargo. The unit uses demountable cargo beds known as “flatracks” which come in 3 varieties: the M1077 “A” frame, the M-1 ISO intermodal, and the M3 CROP (Container Roll-in/Out Platform). Payload is dependant on which of these is used, but the vehicle can load up to 18.125 short tons, allowing for up to a 16.5 payload with the M1077 unit. The models differ in that the M1074 has a material handling crane, and is used for supporting artillery units in the field, while the M1075 does not, and is used for basic line haul duties.
Cost: $288,000 (M1074), $244,000 (M1075)

M3068 Series APLT (http://www.tgfaust.com/images/AMphotos/LMTV.jpg)
Crew: 2 + 1

Cargo: 2268 kg (normal), 4535 kg (towed)
Troops: up to 14
The M3068 APLT (Alternative Propulsion Light Transport) is first in the new line of Smoke Jaguar trucks powered by a Hydrogen Fuel-Cell system. This is a version of the ubiquitous “deuce-and-a-half” 2.5 ton truck, which switches the normal engine and gas tank for a hydrogen fuel cell electric system. The result is a vehicle that uses no petroleum, while maintaining similar performance to the standard vehicles. Though wide usage of the vehicle (and others in the family) requires a costly reworking of refueling and support facilities, the end result is a vast reduction in petroleum usage, cutting down fuel costs drastically, and the lower consumption allows greater reserves for combat vehicles. Unfortunately, tests have indicated that fuel cells still cannot generate the power needed to run heavier armored vehicles effectively, at least at present.
In addition to the Fuel Cell system, more advanced construction materials and techniques were applied to help improve the reliability of the unit, as well as allowing for greater survivability in the field, and in addition to signature reduction and protection for the cab and drive system, they have been designed to accept additional armor kits that will allow them to have protection against rounds up to 7.62mm AP.
Cost: $114,000 (M3068 truck), $172,000 (M3069 van), $118,000 (M3070 airdroppable truck), $15,000 (additional armor kit)

.45 cal MEU (SOC) Pistol (http://www.hqmc.usmc.mil/factfile.nsf/0/d6a3fc7de02523fe8525627c006c5814/$FILE/MEUSOCPL.JPG)
Caliber: .45 ACP
Weight: 1.36 kg loaded, 1.14 kg empty
Length: 219.1mm
Barrel: 127.8mm
Mechanism: Semi-automatic
Magazine Capacity: 7 rounds
Max Effective Range: 50m
A heavily modified Colt M1911A1 automatic pistol that has been designed to provide improved accuracy, and be more “user friendly.” Combined with the inherent lethality and reliability of the design, this is a truly effective weapon in close quarters.
Cost: $600

Colt M1911A1 Automatic Pistol (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/m1911a1-dvic527.jpg)
Caliber: .45 ACP
Weight: 1.36 kg loaded, 1.14 kg empty
Length: 219.1mm
Barrel: 127.8mm
Mechanism: Semi-automatic
Magazine Capacity: 7 rounds
Max Effective Range: 25m
Probably the single most popular pistol ever designed, the Colt M1911 .45 caliber pistol has seen service with dozens of nations over the course of nearly a century, and is still one of the most prominent military pistols today. Though powerful, most shooters can control this weapon (unlike the more powerful 10mm auto, .357 & .44 magnum, and .50 AE pistols, which many cannot use effectively). This provides an excellent balance between usability and lethality, and the weapon is also known as one of the most reliable automatic pistols out there, leaving the only weaknesses as the low magazine capacity, and the fact that 9mm weapons can be fired much more rapidly due to lower recoil.
Cost: $245

Calico M950 (http://www.longmountain.com/inventory/10243.jpg)
Caliber: 9x19mm Luger/Para
Weight: 1 kg empty, 1.8 kg w/ 50 round magazine
Length: 365mm
Barrel: 152mm
Magazine capacity: 50 or 100 rounds
Effective Range: 60m
This is the smallest in a series of 9mm weapons designed to use a special top-mounted helical magazine. This magazine comes in 50 and 100 round versions, giving this the highest magazine capacity of any pistol ever designed, though this weapon is only semi-automatic so the full benefits of the magazine capacity won’t be felt. It’s also longer ranged than most pistols, though this comes more from its greater size than anything else, and this weapon is a bit bulky, which is its only real drawback. A longer barreled version, the M951 (http://www.notpurfect.com/main/calico1.jpg) is also available, and provides good longer-range firepower using standard pistol rounds.
Cost: $520, $800 (M951 carbine)

Cougar pistol (http://www.waronline.org/IDF/Articles/pistols_files/jericho_ps.jpg)
Caliber: 9x19mm Para, .357 Magnum, 10mm Auto, .44 Magnum, .45 ACP, .50 AE
Weight: 1.34 kg
Length: 201mm
Barrel length: 108mm
Magazine capacity: 16/12/12/10/10/8 rounds
Effective range: 40-50m
This is a relatively simple and reliable automatic pistol available in a wide variety of calibers. Though recoil can be a bit of a problem with the more powerful rounds, it boasts decent accuracy and is not too expensive.
Cost: $285

Beretta M9 Automatic Pistol (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/m-9-dvic524.jpg)
Caliber: 9x19mm Parabellum
Weight: 1.16 kg loaded
Length: 216.9mm
Barrel: 125mm
Mechanism: Semi-automatic
Magazine Capacity: 15 rounds
Max Effective Range: 50m
A relatively cheap, reliable combat sidearm. It has decent accuracy, low cost, and a large magazine, making it an effective alternative to the multitude of other pistols available for military and police use.
Cost: $265

Caliber: .38 S&W
Weight: 0.86 kg
Length: 235mm
Barrel: 101.6mm
Mechanism: Double-action revolver
Magazine Capacity: 6 rounds
Max Effective Range: 25m
A simple, rugged .38 cal double-action revolving pistol, which is an alternative to the more complex automatic weapons. Though lacking the magazine capacity and rate of fire, revolvers are much more reliable, and most failures that would result in a jam in automatics would not affect a revolver.
Cost: $325

H&K MP-5 (http://www.hanjaco.co.kr/gun/mp5.jpg)
Caliber: 9x19mm Parabellum
Weight: 2.54 kg empty
Length: 680mm
Barrel length: 225mm
Rate of fire: 800 rounds per minute
Magazine capacity: 15 or 30 rounds
Effective range: 120 meters
An exceptionally accurate and reliable SMG, and one of the most popular for special forces and security use.

Barrel length: 330 mm
Rate of fire: 750 rounds per minute

M-29 SABR OICW (http://www.circlevision.org/alliantaction/atk/scoop/oicw/pmoicw.jpg)
Caliber: 20x85mm Grenade & 5.56x45mm NATO
Weight (total): 5.5 kg empty, 6.8 kg loaded
Weight (carbine alone): 2 kg empty
Length (total): 890 mm
Barrel length: 460 mm (GL), 250 mm (carbine)
Rate of fire: 10 rounds per minute (GL), 800 rounds per minute (carbine)
Magazine capacity: 6 rounds (GL), 20 or 30 rounds (carbine)
Effective range: 1000+ m (GL), 300+ m (carbine)
This is a two-part advanced infantry weapon that includes a small 5.56mm carbine (based on the G36) and a 20mm grenade launcher. A computer and laser rangefinder in the grenade launcher module allow for the round to be fuzed for airburst at any selected range over 200m, as well as standard impact fuzing. This gives the weapon much greater versatility than the M-16/Grenade launcher combo it's designed to replace. The only drawback is the lack of an arcing trajectory like other grenade launchers, which can be useful at times.
Cost: $10,000

AR-78 “Flashback” Assault Rifle (http://www.tuarma.com/imagenes/fn2000/rifle-1.jpg)
Caliber: 6.35x52mm SRC or 6.8x43mm SPC
Weight: 3.8 kg empty, 5 kg w/ grenade launcher and FCS
Length: 726mm
Barrel: 412mm
Magazine: 30 round detachable box
Rate of Fire: 600 round per minute
Effective Range: 500m
This is a new rifle chambered for the new 6.35mm (.250 cal) ammunition. The new round gives this weapon better range and hitting power than the standard 5.56mm rounds, while avoiding the size, weight, and recoil of the heavier 7.62mm. The weapon itself is a modular bullpup design featuing several positions for snapping on add-on kits, including grenade launchers, sights, computer systems, and a bayonet.
Cost: $1000 for base rifle. $6000 w/ all add-ons included

AR-82 Assault Rifle (http://arms.host.sk/firearms/abakan.jpg)
Caliber: 5.56x45mm NATO, 5.45x39mm Soviet, 6.8x43mm SPC, or 6.35x52mm SRC
Weight: 3.85 kg w/o magazine
Length: 943mm
Barrel: 405mm
Magazine: 30 round detachable box
Rate of Fire: 1800 rounds per minute in 2-round burst, 600 rounds per minute normal
Effective Range: variable
At first glance, this weapon doesn’t seem especially unique. However, it uses a unique action and firing system that allows for a phenomenally high rate of fire when using 2 round bursts, almost equivalent to that of the more expensive G-11. This high burst rate, like in the G-11, allows the second round to leave the barrel even before the recoil is felt, providing exceptionally tight groupings. Indeed, at 100m, a trained shooter can fire it accurately enough to have the two rounds make a single hole, greatly increasing penetration, stopping power, and lethality. Outside of the 2-round burst, it operates like a standard assault rifle. Variants chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO, 5.45x39mm Soviet, and 6.35x52mm SRC are all available.
Cost: $800

G-11 Rifle (http://www.hkpro.com/image/g11prone.jpg)
Caliber: 4.7 mm caseless
Action: Gas operated, rotating breech
Overall length: 750 mm
Barrel length: 540 mm
Weigth: 3.6 kg empty
Magazine capacity: 50 or 45 rds
A revolutionary weapon that was initially conceived to replace existing assault rifles. It uses a unique 4.7mm caseless round, which has the bullet encased in a block of propellant rather than the traditional brass shell. When the round is fired, the entire casing is vaporized, leaving nothing left. This eliminates the need to eject spent cartridges, and allows the gun to achieve rates in excess of 2000rpm when firing a 3-round burst. At this rate, the bullets are fired out so quickly that the last one leaves the barrel before the recoil from the first is felt, generating phenomenally tight groupings. However, the weapon has a more traditional, though still respectable rate of 600 rpm on full auto. The weapon is, however, very expensive, and isn’t the best candidate for general use.
Cost: $1300

G36A5 assault rifle (http://www.gurpsmaster.de/G36RIFLE.jpg)
Caliber: 5.56x45mm NATO or 6.8x43mm SPC

A good assault rifle. Though not overly exceptional, it is a strong performer and, taking a cue from the R4, includes accessories like a compass and a can opener - the latter to prevent soldiers from using certain precision parts for that purpose.
Cost: $850

M16A3 Assault Rifle (http://www.airsoftdepot.com/ics-m16a3-big.gif)
Caliber: 5.56x45mm NATO or 6.8x43mm SPC

Magazine Capacity: 30 round
Rate of Fire: 800 rpm
Effective Range: 550m (point target), 800m (area target)
Maximum Range: 3600m
An improved version of the M16 rifle, most notable in the fact that it reintroduces the capability for full automatic fire.
Cost: $600

M16A2 Assault Rifle (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/m-16-dvic533.jpg)
Caliber: 5.56x45mm NATO or 6.8x43mm SPC

Effective Range: 550m (point target), 800m (area target)
Maximum Range: 3600m
The ubiquitous M16. The A2 variant is notable in that it addresses many of the reliability issues that plagued early weapons, and that it has the full auto capability removed, instead offering only semi-auto and 3-round burst.
Cost: $585

M4A1 Carbine (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/m4carb.jpg)
Caliber: 5.56x45mm NATO or 6.8x43mm SPC
Weight: 2.52 kg empty, 3 kg loaded
Length: 838mm (stock extended), 757mm (stock collapsed)
Barrel Length: 370mm
Magazine Capacity: 30 round
Rate of Fire: 700-950 rpm
Effective Range: 360m
A smaller version of the M16 that’s more suited to airborne operations or those in confined spaces. The size reduction also has the added effect of notably increasing rate of fire.
Cost: $700

M-8 LAR (http://www.webmutants.com/strategypage/xm8_2.jpg)
Caliber: 5.56x45mm NATO or 6.8x43mm SPC
Weight: 2.67 kg empty
Length: 838mm (butt extended)
Barrel length: 229mm (compact), 318mm (standard)
Rate of fire: 800 rounds per minute
Magazine capacity: 20 or 30 rounds
Effective range: 300+ m
This is a small, lightweight carbine based on the G36 assault rifle, and very similar to the KE module on the OICW. It’s intended to replace the somewhat unsuccessful M4 carbine, over which it has advantages of greater reliability, smaller size, and 20% lower weight.
Cost: $900

Colt Commando (CAR-15) (http://lnmb.hl2files.com/images/weapon-renders/CAR-15.jpg)
Caliber: 5.56x45mm NATO or 6.8x43mm SPC
Weight: 2.44 kg empty, 2.92 kg loaded
Length: 762mm (stock extended), 680mm (stock collapsed)
Barrel Length: 292mm
Magazine Capacity: 30 round
Rate of Fire: 750 rpm
Effective Range: 360m
An even smaller version of the M16. This is an updated version of the original CAR-15 (which had some serious problems), and is among the smallest assault rifles in existence.
Cost: $750

G3A6 assault rifle (http://www.notpurfect.com/main/hk2.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO
Weight: 4.5 kg
Length: 1023mm
Barrel: 450mm
Magazine Capacity: 20 rounds
Effective Range: 600m
An upgrade of the venerable G3 rifle, which has given sterling service to numerous countries over several decades. Though it's old and chambered for a larger round, the people of Clan Smoke Jaguar recognize that sometimes a 5.56mm weapon just won't do.
Cost: $525

M14 Automatic Rifle (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/M14-large.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO
Weight: 3.95 kg empty, 5 kg loaded
Length: 1121.2mm
Barrel: 558.8mm
Mechanism: Automatic
Rate of Fire: 750 rpm cyclic
Magazine Capacity: 20 rounds
Max Effective Range: 460m
A heavier, more powerful rifle compared to the modern 5.56mm weapons, the M14 was designed primarily for semi-automatic fire, though full auto is an option (but on not usually exercised due to the inability to control the weapon). It fires the exact same ammunition as NATO machine guns, which provides long range and high stopping power, and this weapon has been popular with many because, unlike with the M16 and similar rifles, a target hit with a round like this is likely to go down, and stay down.
Cost: $575

NTW-20 anti-material rifle (http://matrix.dumpshock.com/raygun/firearms/amr/img/ntw20_1.jpg)
Caliber: 20x83.5mm MG151, 14.5x114mm KPV
Operation: Bolt action
Barrel length: 1000mm, 1220mm for 14.5mm
Weight: 26 kg, 29 kg for 14.5mm
Length: 1795mm, 2015mm for 14.5mm
Magazine: 3 round box
Effective Range: 1500m, 2300m for 14.5mm
This is a massive weapon, and easily among the largest ever designed for an infantryman to carry. Like the IWS-2000, it can be split into two parts to ease the strain on the individual soldier, but is still very heavy. The primary version fires surplus MG151 rounds, which date back to WWII. Though they’re lacking in armor piercing capability, they pack a nice explosive punch, making it excellent against soft targets. These rounds come in HE incendiary, and fragmentation versions for additional versatility. The rifle can also use the powerful 14.5mm KPV round, and can be switched to it with a simple replacement of the barrel, bolt, magazine, and scope, which can be done in about 1 minute in the field.
Cost: $16,000

IWS-2000 Anti-Materiel Rifle (http://www.steyr-aug.com/theacr.jpg)
Caliber: 15.2mm
Weight: 18 kg
Length: 1800mm
Barrel: 1200mm
Action: Semi-automatic
Magazine Capacity: 5 rounds
Penetration: 40mm RHA @ 1000m
This should not be mistaken for a sniper rifle, as it is designed entirely for the anti-materiel role, and it’s easily one of the most powerful weapons ever fielded by an infantryman. Though this weapon is extremely large and quite heavy, it has enough power to take out most light combat vehicles and even many IFVs at ranges of over one kilometer. During transit, the barrel is removed from the rest of the weapon and carried separately. Otherwise, this gun would be too long for practical use.
Cost: $14,000

M95A2 heavy sniper/anti-materiel rifle (http://www.svyatogor-2002.narod.ru/galleri_2.files/image008.jpg)
Caliber: 12.7x99mm NATO (match or standard .50 BMG)
Operation: Bolt action
Weight: 9.98 kg empty without scopes
Length: 1143 mm
Barrel length: 737 mm
Magazine Capacity: 5 rounds
Effective range: 1800+ m
A large, powerful rifle chambered for the .50 BMG round. Though it has long range and high hitting power, it's too heavy and bulky for most infantry operations, limiting it to primarily special forces use.
Cost: $6000

M82A1 heavy sniper/anti-materiel rifle (http://www.ccpartuscania.net/images/Barrett_M82.jpg)
Caliber: 12.7x99mm NATO (match or standard .50 BMG)
Operation: Semi-auto
Weight: 14.75 kg
Length: 1448 mm
Barrel length: 737 mm
Magazine Capacity: 10 rounds
Effective range: 1800+ m
This is an older weapon that's very similar to the M95. Its main difference is that it's a semi-automatic weapon rather than bolt action
Cost: $6000

Predator Sniper Rifle (http://www.airsoftextreme.com/images/games/Barrett%20M99.jpg)
Caliber: .408 Stryker Tactical or .408 Cheyenne Tactical
Length: 1038 mm
Barrel length: 692 mm
Weight: 9 kg without scope
Magazine Capacity: 5 rounds
Range: 1800+ m
Accuracy: .5 MOA
This is a powerful weapon chambered for our new .408 Stryker Tactical round. It’s notably lighter than the bigger .50 cal weapons, though it has similar range and higher accuracy.
Cost: $8200

M98 sniper rifle (http://www.scs.wsu.edu/~pbourque/images/guns/m98_338L.jpg)
Caliber: .338 Lapua Magnum
Operation: Semi-auto
Weight: 7 kg
Length: 1175 mm
Barrel length: 610 mm
Magazine capacity: 10 rounds
Effective range: 1000+ m
This is best described as a medium sniper rifle, filling the gap between the 7.62mm weapons and the heavier 12.7mm ones. It has better range than smaller weapons, but is nowhere near as heavy as the larger ones, making it a good long-range weapon.
Cost: $4000

DSR-1 Sniper Rifle (http://www.lafiebre.net/cops/images/DSR-1%20police%20sniper%20rifle.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm Match, .300 Winchester Magnum, or .338 Lapua Magnum
Operation: Bolt-action
Weight: 5.9 kg empty, without scope
Length: 990mm
Magazine capacity: 5 rounds (7.62mm), 4 rounds (.300 or .328 magnum)
Range: 1000+m
This is an exceptional weapon that is among the most accurate in the world. It is, however, very expensive and not designed for extended operations, limiting it to police and special forces use. Still, its long range and high accuracy make it a useful weapon.
Cost: $7700 (7.62mm), $7900 (.300 WM), $8100 (.338 LM)

WA 2000 sniper rifle (http://www.100megsfree2.com/deadeye/specials/realgunpics/wa-2000.jpg)
Caliber: .300 Win mag, .308 (7.62x51mm NATO), 7.5x51mm Swiss
Operation: Semi-Auto
Weight Unloaded: 6.95 kg
Length: 905mm
Barrel Length: 650mm
Magazine: 6 round detachable box
Max Effective Range: 1000+ meters with .300 win mag
This is designed as a highly accurate rifle primarily for police use, and uses a number of unique features, including bull pup design, a fluted free-floating barrel, a sliding bipod (can be set at any point along the barrel), and adjustable stock and trigger. It’s also unique among sniper rifles in that the design is completely original, and not based on a previous hunting or military rifle. Everything combines to give the weapon small size, maximum comfort, and extreme accuracy, but at an extreme price. Being for police use, it’s also heavier than military weapons, as it doesn’t need to be carried long distances.
Cost: $10,000

Blaser 93 Tactical sniper rifle (http://home.mweb.co.za/af/afadrb/Images/blaser/blaser93_tactical.gif)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm Match, .300 Winchester Magnum, and .338 Lapua Magnum
Operation: Bolt-action
Weight: 5 kg empty
Barrel length: 600 mm
Magazine capacity: 5 rounds (7.62mm), 4 rounds (.300 or .328 magnum)
Range: 1000+ m
This is a decent weapon noted primarily for its interchangeable barrels, which can be switched in a matter of minutes, allowing it to be quickly reconfigured to accept any of the three major sniping rounds.
Cost: $2850

PSG-1 Sniper Rifle (http://arms.host.sk/firearms/psg1_2.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62 x 51mm NATO (.308 Win)
Action: Semi-automatic, roller-delayed blowback
Weight: 8.10 kg with scope and no magazine
Barrel: 650 mm
Overall length: 1208 mm
Magazine: 5 or 20 round detachable box
Scope: Hendsoldt 6x42, 6 settings from 100 to 600 meters
Expected accuracy: Sub-1MOA with match grade ammunition
Another extremely expensive sniper rifle, this one being based on the G3 assault rifle rather than being a completely original design. However, as with the WA 2000, you get what you pay for. It has a pistol grip with an adjustable palm stop, adjustable plastic stock, and a unique “silent bolt closing device.” It’s also unique in that it has no integral bipod, and a tripod is often used instead.
Cost: $10,000

M40A1 sniper rifle (http://texasbrigadearmory.com/images/tba05.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester)
Operation: Bolt action
Weight: 6.58 kg
Length: 1176 mm
Barrel length: 610 mm
Magazine capacity: 5 rounds
Effective Range: 800+ m
This is an exceptional weapon that combines accuracy, relatively light weight, and reliability. It is designed specifically for military use.
Cost: $2105

MSG-90 sharpshooter rifle (http://alpinetek.netfirms.com/guns/MSG90A1/msg90dmr.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester)
Operation: Semi-auto
Weight: 6.4 kg
Length: 1165 mm
Barrel length: 600 mm
Magazine capacity: 5 or 20 rounds
Effective range: 800+ m
This is a sniper rifle designed to provide direct support of front-line troops. As such, it sacrifices some accuracy to achieve a higher rate of fire. This particular weapon is one of several sniper rifles based on the G3 and has much in common with the more famous, and far more expensive, PSG-1 sniper rifle.
Cost: $2200

Caliber: 12 gauge
Weight: 3.9 kg empty
Length: 690 mm
Barrel length: 570 mm
Magazine capacity: 12 rounds (2x6 round over-barrel)
This is a relatively small shotgun boasting a number of novel features, including a bull-pup design, a forward-back pump action (instead of the standard back-forward) and twin, over-barrel, tubular magazines. There is a selector allowing the user to choose which magazine is a round is loaded from, giving a greater degree of flexibility compared to most other combat shotguns.
Cost: $900

MAG-7 Combat Shotgun (http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/mag7bw.gif)
Caliber: 12 gauge
Weight: 4 kg
Length: 550 mm
Barrel length: 320 mm
Capacity: 5 rounds in removable box magazine
Easily one of the smallest combat shotguns ever designed, the MAG-7 is designed for providing compact firepower for operations in confined spaces like room-to-room searches. As such, it’s primarily a police and special forces weapon, but can be useful to soldiers in urban combat as well. Naturally, the small size significantly limits effective range, but this is hardly a hindrance when used in the confined spaces the weapon was designed for.
Cost: $700

Mossberg 12-Gauge Shotgun (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/12-shotgun.jpg)
Caliber: 12-Gauge

Mechanism: Pump-action
Magazine Capacity: 7 rounds
Range: 45.7m w/ “00” buckshot
A standard 12-guage pump-action shotgun for close-quarters combat (and riot control) situations.
Cost: $600

Granatpistole (http://www.fallschirmjaeger.de/Aktuell/Waffen/grapi1.jpg)
Caliber: 40mm grenade
Weight: 2.3 kg
Length: 683mm, 463mm stock folded
Operation: Single shot, breech loaded
Effective Range: 350m
This is a small single-shot grenade launcher for various uses. It boasts a conveniently small size with good range and accuracy, and as an added bonus, it can be fired safely with the stock folded.
Cost: $600

M203 40mm Grenade Launcher (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/M203-1.jpg)
Caliber: 40mm
Weight: 1.36 kg + rifle (3.99 kg for M16A2)

A 40mm grenade launcher designed to be attached under the barrel of the M16 series of weapons (including M16, M4, and CAR-15, and most other NATO rifles). It provides a light, powerful destructive weapon that can be carried by regular combat soldiers.
Cost: $600

SMAW (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/smaw-dvic566.jpg)
Caliber: 83mm rocket
Weight: 7.54 kg w/o rocket, 13.39-13.85 kg loaded
Length: 759.5mm carrying, 1371.6mm extended for firing
Effective Range: 250m against 1x2m target, 500m against tank-sized target
Armor Penetration: 600mm (HEAA)
A manportable, reusable 83mm rocket launcher for infantry operations. It has excellent accuracy at combat ranges, which is further improved by the inclusion of a 9mm spotting rifle on the side, which uses rounds that match the ballistic profile of the rockets. Rocket types include HEDP (High Explosive Dual Purpose), HEAA (High Explosive Anti-Armor), and FTG (follow-through grenade)
Cost: $13,000

M3 Carl Gustav 84mm Recoilless Rifle (http://www.mil.ee/im/varustus/relvapilt/carlgustav_1.jpg)
Caliber: 84mm rocket
Weight: 8.5 kg empty, 12.5 kg loaded
Length: 1070mm
Effective Range:
-1000m – FFV441 He-Frag
-1300m – FFV469 Smoke
-700m (stationary target), 400m (moving target) – FFV 551 HEAT
Armor Penetration: 400mm (FFV 551 HEAT)
An upgrade of the venerable M2 Carl Gustav weapon that uses advanced composites and construction to significantly reduce weight. This unit is valuable in that it’s easily manportable and fires a wide variety of weapons, in addition to being in extremely widespread use, making ammunition plentiful.
Cost: $8350

Predator SRAW (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/mpimsraw-178.jpg)
Length: 890mm
Weight: 9.7 kg
Range: 600m (200m for moving targets), 17m minimum
Warhead: EFP w/ Follow-Through Grenade, or Blast-Fragmentation
A heavier and more advanced alternative to the AT-4, this unit uses an EFP to engage and destroy almost any tank. In tests against M48 tanks, the projectile was fired through the top of the turret, and penetrated all the way through the tank, exiting through the floor. Needless to say, the weapon is much more likely to stop modern armor than standard RPG and LAW-type weapons, and versatility can be provided through an alternate warhead with a blast-fragmentation round.
Cost: $4000

M136 AT4 CS (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/munitions/images/at4.jpg)
Weight: 8 kg
Diameter: 84mm (rocket)
Length: 1m
Speed: 792 km/h
Range: 300m
Warhead: 1.8 kg HEAT
Armor Penetration: 500mm
A slightly heavier version of the AT4 with reduced backblast to allow operation in confined spaces.
Cost: $1500

M136 AT4 light antitank weapon (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/munitions/images/at4-dvic540.jpg)
Caliber: 84mm rocket
Weight: 6.7 kg (loaded)
Length: 1020 mm
Effective range: 300 m
Maximum range: 2100 m

IC-4 OCSW (http://www.gdatp.com/products/lethality/xm307/xm307_gallery/photos/3.jpg)
Caliber: 25mm Airburst
Weight: 19.05 kg
Length: 1330mm
Rate of Fire: 250 rounds per minute
Effective Range: 2000m
This is the long-awaited companion to the OICW, which uses a slightly scaled-up version of that weapon’s airburst “grenades,” but is capable of firing them on full auto. This provides with one of the most effective anti-personnel systems ever conceived, and is an excellent replacement for aging 40mm AGLs. It is, however, very expensive.
Cost: $30,000

AGL-11 Grenade Launcher (http://www.gdatp.com/products/lethality/mk47/striker_gallery/photos/6.jpg)
Caliber: 40mm grenade
Weight: 18 kg
Length: 940mm
Barrel: 610mm
Rate of Fire: 225-300 rounds per minute
Effective Range: 3000m
This is a replacement for the current range of automatic grenade launchers, and features advanced electronic systems to aid in detection and targeting. The weapon, though not quite as lethal as the OCSW, is cheaper to purchase and operate, thus providing an excellent complement or alternative to the expensive OCSW.
Cost: $22,000

MK.19 automatic grenade launcher (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/mk19mod3.jpg)
Caliber: 40mm grenade
Weight: 62.43 kg total (32.92 gun, 9.53 cradle, 19.98 tripod)
Length: 1094.2 mm
Rate of Fire: 375 rounds per minute
Effective Range: 1600 m
Maximum Range: 2200 m
This is essentially a machine gun firing 40mm grenade rounds instead of bullets. Though it has a rather low rate of fire, the more powerful rounds make it extremely effective against troops and light armor. It usually fires alternating HE and AP rounds.
Cost: $13,750

MG-15 HMG (http://210.79.226.16:81/cetin2/report/s-weapon/gun/jq/FN%20BRG-15.jpg)
Caliber: 15.5x115mm
Weight: 62 kg
Length: 2200 mm
Barrel length: 1500 mm
Rate of fire: 600 rounds per minute
Effective range: 2000+ m
This 15.5mm monster is, quite likely, the most powerful machine gun ever made. Capable of penetrating 14mm of armor at 1500m with standard ammunition (up to 24mm w/ SLAP rounds), it can literally tear an APC to pieces at ranges exceeding one kilometer. This is used in CSJ as a heavy assault weapon, usually mounted on HMMWVs and helicopters to provide a heavier long-range punch than standard 12.7mm guns.
Cost: $18,000

M2HB heavy machine gun (http://www.korteng.com/KWjpg/mghb.jpg)
Caliber: 12.7x99mm NATO
Weight: 38 kg, 58 kg with tripod
Length: 1650mm
Rate of Fire: 450-600 rpm
Feed: 100 round belt
Effective Range: 1800+m
Maximum range: 6800m
This is an updated version of the old Browning M2 machine gun.
Cost: $14,000

HMG-17 (http://www.gdatp.com/products/lethality/xm312/xm312_gallery/photos/1.jpg)
Caliber: 12.7x99mm NATO
Weight: 19 kg w/ tripod
Length: 1562mm
Barrel: 1032mm
Feed: 50 or 100 round belt
Rate of Fire: 260 rounds per minute
Effective Range: 2000m
This is a scaled down M2HB, designed to be much lighter than its larger cousin, and is in fact among the smallest and lightest heavy machine guns ever designed, allowing it to be carried and crewed by the mere two troops required for most medium weapons. The weapon maintains the accuracy and firepower of its predecessor, as well as its practical rate of fire (40 rounds per minute). However, in order to scale it down, the cyclic rate of fire had to be reduced, and the weapon is thus incapable of effectively engaging fast-moving targets such as helicopters and aircraft. However, it is still a devastatingly effective weapon against ground forces.
Cost: $15,000

MG-12 GPMG (http://www.gf81.com.cn/16/images/mg3.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO
Weight: 8.75 kg w/ bipod
Length: 1124mm
Barrel: 560mm
Feed: 50, 100, or 250 round belt
Rate of Fire: Variable; 1300, 950, 700, or 550 rpm, depending on bolt
Effective Range: 2000+m
Maximum Range: 4000+m
This is a further refinement of the aged, but still resoundingly effective MG-42 machine gun. The most notable improvement here was to compress the weapon and significantly reduce the weight through the use of newer composites. This current version boasts the same accuracy and reliability that has made the MG-42 and its offspring the best machine guns in service for decades, but the lower weight makes it much more portable, and with certain bolts, the weapon can even be fired effectively from the hip - something only a handful of 7.62mm weapons can claim.
Cost: $9000

MG3 machine gun (http://peachboy.myrice.com/new_edition/weapon/weapons-machine-gun_mg3.JPG)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO
Weight: 11.05 kg with bipod, 25 kg with tripod
Length: 1225mm
Rate of Fire: 750-1300rpm, depending on bolt
Feed: 50, 100, or 250 round belt
Effective Range: 1500+m
Maximum Range: 4000+m
This is little more than the old MG-42 with a few minor improvements, yet it remains one of the best weapons in its class, combining power, accuracy, and reliability with a high rate of fire. The cyclic rate of fire can be changed by using different bolts, which allow it to be operated at 1300, 950, and 750 rpm.
Cost: $7300

M240G MMG (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/m240b-sa.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO
Weight: 10.99 kg
Length: 1206.5mm
Rate of Fire: 650-950 rpm cyclic, 200 rpm rapid, 100 rpm sustained
Max Effective Range: 1800m (w/ tripod)
Max Range: 3725m
This is a ground version of the M240 machine gun that’s used as the standard 7.62mm weapon on many AFVs. This is much more effective and reliable than the older M60, and though it is heaver, the far better performance makes up for this.
Cost: $6600

M60E3 GPMG (http://calligari.free.fr/machine-gun/m60e3.jpg)
Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO
Weight: 8.51 kg
Length: 1077mm
Rate of Fire: 550 rpm cyclic, 100 rpm practical (w/ barrel change every 100 rounds)
Max Effective Range: 1100m
Max Range: 3725m

[CSJ, I hate to clutter your thread with OOC stuff, but the weapon that airman is carrying is an A1. The A3/A4 looks like this (http://www.vseleznev.com/m16a4.jpg).]

[CSJ, I hate to clutter your thread with OOC stuff, but the weapon that airman is carrying is an A1. The A3/A4 looks like this (http://www.vseleznev.com/m16a4.jpg).]
Not entirely accurate. You are right that the weapon I had was an earlier model (fixed), and that picture is indeed an M16A4, but with accessories included. That picture shows a weapon with tactical blue light, red laser, and an R.I.S. foregrip. None of those, even the foregrip, are present on the basic weapon, though they are common additions.

Edit: For the record, the only real differences between the A3/A4 and A2 are the optional Rail Interface System (a modified upper receiver), and the A3's full auto capability. Beyond that, they are in fact the same weapon.

[Yeah, I know, I humped an A4 around Benning for close on five months. One thing I dislike about it is the fact that it's real easy to burn your off hand, even on semi, because the damn thing heats up so fast. That, and it's real finnicky about how you seat the rounds into the magazine, a millimeter too far forward and you have to go through SPORTS for each and every fricking round. It sucks.]

OOC: Do you have an LBT?

OOC: If you mean Light Tank, the Kit Fox and Stingray series both fall into that category. The Whitewolf, Brushfire, Seacat 105, LAV 105 and Stryker MGS could all fill the role as well, though all of those are wheeled rather than tracked.

OOC: Correct. But is it strong enough for the NS battlefield?

FROM: Paul David Nettleton, Minister of Defence, United Sovereign Nations of Southeast Asia
SUBJECT: Artillery

Greetings,

We have heard many praises about the CSJMI and it's designs. While now out-sold by other corporations such as DMG Military Industries and Kriegzimmer Conglomerates, after looking at the catalogue of weapon products you have, we have decided it needs to get back it's dominance in the market by giving you a purchase.

The Army has been looking for a cheap replacement for the Paladin, and as we feel that the M2012 Cavalier does the job, we shall take ten samples of the aforementioned product (wheeled RSV). The cost of 142,000,000 USD shall be wired upon the confirmation of the order.

Yours Truly,
His Excellency,
Minister of Defense
United Sovereign Nations of Southeast Asia
Paul David Nettleton

CSJMI is honored that the United Sovereign Nations of Southeast Asia feel as they do, and will gladly fulfill the order. Delivery is anticipated within 2 NS months.


OOC: I seem to have missed the previous post somehow, but I can say that the Kit Fox is about as good as an airdroppable vehicle's going to get. It's certainly not designed to go up against MBTs, but can hold its own against just about anything else in its class, including IFVs and other true light tanks.
Several of the others mentioned are a bit inferior in potential armor protection, but all would still be effective for the assigned role, which is really direct fire support for infantry and other light forces.

OOC: CSJ, in the end, I decided to use a Praetonian-Sarzonian design (the Regus) for an LBT. What are the strengths and weaknesses of a tracked RSV and a wheeled RSV?

Tracked vehicles have historically been the best for off-road and cross country applications due to the lower ground pressure. This lets them operate effectively on softer terrain than wheeled units. On the downside, tracked units are more expensive to construct, more maintenance intensive, and easier to get a mobility kill on than many current wheeled vehicles. They also have lower overall top speeds.

Wheeled vehicles, on the other hand, are cheaper and less maintenance intensive, and can have over 50% greater maximum road speed than comparable tracked units (consider how many tracked vehicles go over 75 km/h, compared to how many wheeled ones go well over 100). Current wheeled units with 6 or 8 wheels also have additional advantages. Independant suspension makes these better suited to dealing with many types of obstacles and rugged terrain (urban combat comes to mind), and since the wheels are independant of each other, a genuine mobility kill will usually require multiple hits, as a single hit will rarely take out more than one wheel.
The biggest weakness is ground pressure, though as long as you keep the unit relatively light, this isn't much of an issue in most terrains. I wouldn't advise wheeled vehicles above 25-30,000 kg though, unless you can guaruantee roads or good off-road terrain for them. Beyond that, they tend to take a greater dive in speed when going off-road or cross country, though modern units can still keep up with most tracked ones because of advances in suspension and the overall higher maximum road speed.

Dear sir(s),

The Army of the Realm is undergoing a massive refurbishing, and as such, CSJMI were the natural place to go. Due to the rather large refurbishment, which includes a change of doctrine, we would like to purchase quite a bit of equipment. We are aware that quite a few of the models we request are advanced units, but we hope that we will be allowed to purchase the designs. If we are not, we will settle for the designs which are available for us to purchase (example: Nova Cat II to Nova Cat). If we do not recieve approval to purchase the models requested, the payment sum will be lowered in order to meet the new price. We are aware that the order is somewhat substantial in size, but we hope that this will not be a problem. We are in no rush to get these units, so we can settle for a waiting period if that is necessary. The models we are requesting are as follows:

Nova Cat II: 2,745
Mist Lynx II: 7,500
Mist Lynx Linebacker II: 2,610
Stormcrow II: 1,875
Kit Fox AVBL: 180
Kodiak ABV: 810
M946 CEV: 765
M96A1 Fox NBC: 90

We have calculated the cost for the vehicles we are requesting to purchase to $70.863 billion, which will be wired upon confirmation of the order. Thank you in advance.

We assume you will add a price tag to the tanks finial cost if you agree, which we hope you do.

SUBJECT: Purchase of Iron Cheetah MBT

Dear Sirs,

We would prefere discretion on the subject of weapon procurement if that is okay with your officials. But we at the MoD would like to purchase 100 Iron Cheetah MBT's from your storefront.
The total cost comes to $580000000.

If you decline, we will of course be disappointed but none-the-less respectful of your desision.

Thank You for your attention.
After careful consideration, CSJMI is pleased to announce that your request has been approved, and with production rights included, the total will be $8 billion. If this is acceptable, we will transfer the necessary information and assistance as soon as payment is confirmed, and the tanks should be delivered within 3 NS months after that.



OOC: CSJ, can you do a variant for the British Challenger and Centurion tanks?
OOC: The Centurion? Well, I could, but I kind of think that poor old boy needs to be put out to the pasture. There's no way to get a halfway decent NS tank without completely rebuilding it from the ground up. It is, after all, a WWII-era design (and the oldest tank model still serving in modern RL armies).
The Challenger on the other hand, little difficulty there. The main difficulty with both this and the Centurion is that CSJ ICly has never produced them, so it would be a lot of work (in other words, time consuming) and would naturally require full technical specs to be handed over.

Econmic advisors here in Stevid and considered and agreed to the price tag of $8 Billion considering the circumstances and will wired you the money as quickly as possible. We thank you for your acceptance of both our offers and hope we can both continue relations as such.

OOC: Erm, I thought your nation was located in what would be RL Southeast Asia?
OOC: Um, you're right, but how is that in any way relevant? The Challenger and Centurion are British designs, and tend not to be found in Southeast Asian countries. The UK mainly supplies Africa and the Middle East. Southeast Asia is supplied almost entirely by China, Russia, and the US, with some older French stuff thrown in. Very little UK presence.

My country ICly does mostly American, German, and South African stuff. No real UK. Since we never built one of these, or even used one for that matter, it stands to reason that our engineers wouldn't know much about it. Thus, they have to learn.

[OOC: The reason the nation I role-play as has some British stuff is because the Founder comes from Singapore, and despite the fact he believes in unity, he still has some faith and pride in the tiny little city state thus we chose the Challenger II to succeed our domestic refit of the Centurion. I can get you the stuff.]

RE: Upgrades

To Whom It May Concern,

The Free Land of Clan Smoke Jaguar has been a neighbor of ours for quite some time, one which we have overlooked and neglected for quite some time as we made our rise toward the international stage via diplomatic and civil means. However, we wish to rectify this error by giving Clan Smoke Jaguar Military Industries another purchase.

The M-113A3 Armored Personnel Carrier (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/m113.htm) in our military is getting old, and the Upper and Lower Houses of Parliament have debated on whether to retire it from service and replace it with a more advanced Armored Personnel Carrier design or to merely make an upgrade of it. We have chosen, for cost-efficiency purposes, to upgrade the M-113A3.

The Smoke Jaguar-designed M-113A4 MTVL has been chosen for the job due to our poor domestic weapon manufacturing industry and as an "olive branch" to the Free Land, if you will. However, the catalog does not specify how much does it cost to upgrade a M-113A3 unit to a M-113A4 unit, only the procurement cost for a brand new M-113A4.

The moment you clarify the upgrade cost, then we shall send in our vanilla APC's via shipping (roughly a [OOC: NS] few weeks as we are relatively close by) to get the job done and over with.

Also, Parliament has debated about whether or not we should retire the British-designed Challenger II Main Battle Tanks we had since the early days of the Union and the Centurion Main Battle Tank domestic refits (also made by the Britons) we have had for a while (along with a few others, most of which the last remaining that have been scrapped already).

There also has been growing interest in advancing our domestic arms industry by having collaborations with foreigners. Should you accept, I can only imagine the benefits that can come for the two of our homelands and a prosperous relation.

We apologize for any errors in the listing, but can confirm that the cost of upgrading an M113A3 to MTVL standard would be approximately $400,000 per vehicle.

On the tanks, we would certainly suggest finding a replacement for the Centurions in the very near future. The design is thoroughly obsolete and should be in great need of replacement. The Challengers are another matter though, and could wait if need be.

We would also certainly be open to working with your own arms manufacturers to assist in improving your domestic capabilities. We are well accustomed to working jointly with others.

Re: Re: Re: Upgrades

The vanilla M-113A3 Armored Personnel Carriers are on their way to the Free Land for upgrading purposes via shipping. In addition to upgrades of M-113A3 Armored Personnel Carriers, the Upper House of Parliament has approved to import new M-113A4 Light Mobile Tactical Vehicles.

This is payment that is to be wired to your standard bank account upon confirmation of the order:

M-113A3 Armored Personnel Carrier Upgrade - Base Cost: 400,000 USD (Universal Standard Dollars) x 450 [Quantity] = 180,000,000 USD (Universal Standard Dollars)
M-113A4 Light Mobile Tactical Vehicle - Base Cost: 700,000 USD (Universal Standard Dollars) x 1550 [Quantity] = 1,085,000,000 USD (Universal Standard Dollars)
Total = 1,265,000,000 USD (Universal Standard Dollars)
The M-113A4 MTVL (Light Mobile Tactical Vehicle) shall most likely have an excellent and long service life in the Southeast Asian Army. We hope that you yourselves at Clan Smoke Jaguar Military Industries and the Smoke Jaguar government take our purchase as an honor.

P.S. The Challenger II and Centurion Upgrade shall have to wait a little bit, as Parliament, which is cautious in it's decisions to give our nation a strong military force to protect herself, and while that is a good thing, it is often time consuming and has to go through a lot of bureaucratic red-tape. Sometimes, a piece of legislation may be able to slice through the red-tape and get quickly passed, sometimes it does not. We shall see, we shall see.

That's only realistic if your army is small (no more than 100-200k personnel) or you have an almost-all light infantry force. Just in RL, Israel, France, Germany, Italy, even Spain and South Africa, can all at least match that number. The US itself currently has almost 20,000 (well over 25,000 if you count in the Bradleys).
A modern military generally has APCs out the wazzoo. The Smoke Jaguar Army, for example, has some 250,000 APCs and IFVs, including variants. And that's with only 146 of the 346 combat divisions being mechanized. And they're working on improving numbers of those vehicles.

The Smoke Jaguar government is indeed honored by your proposal, and will take to heart the generosity being shown as we deliberate. While much of what you've mentioned so far is, sadly, of little value to us, we can certainly see an agreement being worked out. It will take some time for a consensus to be reached among the members of the council, be we are hopeful that something can be worked out in the near future.


OOC: While I'm indeed happy with the initiative taken, I should point out that CSJ is located in the area of Indonesia, which means we're set on oil. We also happen to be using Fuel Cells as standard now, and are thus well beyond hybrid gas/diesel-electric hybrid systems. Bases and metals, on the other hand . . .

We are deeply honored by the receptivity the Clan Smoke Jaguar has shown. It is regrettable yet understandable that our offer is outshown by the richness and advanced nature of the Smoke Jaguar Nation, however we think that we can still enter a profitable partnership. Our metal deposits are something that the massive industries of CSJ can always utilize. Likewise, being a continental nation, we have a rich agricultural base, the surplus of which could help feed the masses of the CSJ. While CSJ has it's own oil deposits and reserves, it is that very same experience which could help Rowesuela tap its own reserves. Much benefit can be achieved by the union of our two nations.

Well, it did that whole line of MRLs, but if you mean a version of the old 227mm one, I don't think there's a whole lot of improvement that can be made. You can get a more mobile chassis, improve electronics, and get better rockets. 2 of those 3 can be done on the existing vehicle with ease. Now, if you want me to make a weapon to replace it, I could, but I've been working with the fact that the weapon is just so venerable. There's still no RL plans to replace it after all.

However, we are also interested in some of the advancements that the Iron Cheetah has- in particular the PADSHA version of the cheetah model.

We understand that it is a sensitive unit and so we will not atempt to hagle for the production rights, also if we were to buy the refit then it would be a waste of money since we have the construction rights for the original and not the upgrade. If you are willing to sell the rights then we are more than happy to negoiate. We would, however, like to buy a large number of the tanks from your storefront. If that is a possiblity?

If so, then here is our order:

Thank You for your attention and we hope that you accept. Whether you accept nor not will deter us from using your storefront again for more procurement.

OOC: CSJ, is it possible to by the rights of production of types of ground armour such as the PADSHA at a large cost or is that a no go zone?
OOC: sorry for the long delay here. had quite a bit to fix and sort out IRL

You seem to be laboring under the misunderstanding that PADSHA is just an armor, which it is not. It is a complete integrated defense system for main battle tanks that includes passive composite armor, reactive armor (mainly MEXAS), a hard-kill missile defense system, a soft-kill missile defense system, warning systems, and a laser that can blind optical devices out to at least 3000m. The armor itself is nothing exceptionally special, just a logical level up from current armors. It's all the other stuff on there that makes it so nasty. As for production contracts, it's possible. I'm certainly not that opposed to it. Of course, it would indeed require quite a bit since it's our top-of-the-line stuff.

We are aware of the sensitivity of the the PADSHA scheme and understand that the cost of such a scheme will be rather high. Although we are still interested and we will probably accept any terms of price and agreement you set.

Just name the price and we'll consider the deal futher with our finicial advisors.

Thank you.

In deals such as this, we are most receptive to nonmonetary compensation such as access to materials and markets, and most notably, useful technologies we have yet to possess. A simple cash transaction can be used as a further incentive, but will rarely be accepted on its own.

Yours Sincerely,
His Excellency,
Paul David Nettleton
Minister of Defense

We are not entirely sure exactly which trailer you desired to go with the APTT, as it is capable of the M70, M71, M71, and M1062 trailer. We've calculated based on the most common, the M70 40-ton flatbed trailor, but the M1062, which carries 7500-gallons of fuel, is also popular. If that is the case, just inform us and add $200,000 to the order. As it stands with the assumption, the total is $26,820,000, and we anticipate delivery within 6 NS weeks of payment.

OOC: it is my general policy not to specifically tell you what I want, but rather push you in the direction of finding something I desire. Saves me the trouble of looking :p

IC:
In deals such as this, we are most receptive to nonmonetary compensation such as access to materials and markets, and most notably, useful technologies we have yet to possess. A simple cash transaction can be used as a further incentive, but will rarely be accepted on its own. After all, it's a one-time thing, while the benefits of the technology, and what we prefer to have in return, can last for decades, or more.

Could you be more specific sirs? What kind of technology are you interested in, Stevid has the CELLDAR radar system concept and the new Gothic Anti-Ship Missiles (although these are still a new weapon and still pretty sensitive). These are are main areas of military development, we are also avid ship builders and designers.

Unless you ask for anything else, that's most of what we could offer you.

Both of these technologies, but particularly this CELLDAR, might be of value if you wish to consider that. However, we would require knowledge of the capabilities of the systems and an evaluation of the utility before committing.

Tell me about 'em

The CELLDAR Radar Concept (MT)

CELLDAR General Concept (Diagram) (http://zabava.atlas.cz/redakce/technika/77/celldar_concept.jpg)

At the moment, Roke and BAE Systems are jointly funding and developing the first passive radar system that using cell phone wave patterns and frequencies to detect aircraft and possibly surface targets if implemented correctly. This technology seems very new and remarkably interesting in the way it works and so it’s potential as a successful radar system is very high. Major problems have not yet been found in the system since it is still under development but it is a very promising piece of technology.

It works remarkably well in testing and may prove to be an effective way of detecting enemy targets without alerting the hostiles to the position of the ship/aircraft.

1. Hostile aircraft enters into Country A’s airspace and infiltrates the first radar detection suites and gets above the landmass.
2. CELLDAR waves are constantly produced at all angles from the radar domes and emitters. These are dotted around the country in various key locations so cell phone waves cover the entire nation.
3. Cell Phone waves bounce off the moving aircraft.
4. Country A also has detection suites and dishes all around the country or airfield/base or key location and pick up the waves. A shape of an aircraft thus appears on the screens as a dot or a 3D image depending on the type of detection suite being used.
5. Air traffic control attempts to establish contact as the aircraft has been detected. When there is no reply, data on the aircraft, it’s speed, altitude and direction are transmitted to SAM and other AA batteries.
6. This then allows for batteries to attack the aircraft with little or no problem

This is the general jist of it. If enough money is spent to perfect the technology then it does not need to have so many rely stations and could even make do with a single emitter and four detection suites to provide 100% air cover. This technology even has the ability to detect and effectively track stealth aircraft.

The CELLDAR Radar Concept (PMT)

Used in Stevid exactly as above on the land and gives the country the edge on detecting enemy forces in the air and now on the sea. The First nation known to use this technology effectively was Guffingford who also implemented it on land and on ships. Stevid now uses CELLDAR after having realised it’s potential as an excellent radar system that works positively well.

The Royal Navy now uses it on most of their capital ships. Capital ships being large enough to use the emitters that send out the cell phone waves. Other ships in the fleet (destroyers upwards including those that send out the waves) have the detection suites and so also see the enemy aircraft.

AWACS also use themselves as detection relays and forward data onto the fleet control centre. Corvettes also act as forward detection areas and again send data back to the fleet.

When this technology is used in small task forces over 125 vessels it then becomes difficult for ships to keep track of all the data. The answer to this is in Stevid was simple. Put money into a new class of ship that is dedicated to tracking, radar, GPS and general electronics and RADAR systems- this was the Defiler Class Command ship. With it’s several huge super computers, it can take all the data and then immediately classify the targets into groups and categories and then immediately relay the data to every ship in the fleet. The Defiler is completely capable of this and it too uses it’s own CELLDAR technology when it operates independently.

Stevid has used CELLDAR recently in the War of Golden Succession against the Macabees and in the Hanover Conflict against Kanami, Aqua Anu and Magic Sorcery and has proved to be excellent in both conflicts and has yet to fail the armed forces. Ironically, Guffingford used CELLDAR in combat against Stevid before Stevid invested in the technology. Stevid was at a disadvantage from the start and lost many aircraft to the radar system.

CIWS cannons, if modified, can be adapted to have a direct uplink to CELLDAR so it can seek and destroy aircraft and missiles for more efficiently. But the Royal Navy has always used SAMPSON radar has a “co-worker” on tracking and missile control in case CELLDAR ever slips up or is overwhelmed.

GOTHIC MISSILE (Types I and II)

The Gothic MIssile (http://s15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=86)
Unfortunately, though several parties displayed an interest in the concept of CELLDAR, they backed down when it was pointed out that we have an almost identical system both for ground and ship use, which we have operated for quite some time. The missile is similarly not that far beyond what we already field.

OOC: Actually, I'm one of the first players to actively use a system like that (originally intended for efficiently detecting stealth aircraft), and have exported it to several others.
On the missile, I'm afriad I just don't like it at all. ONC is not really worth it. I did the math, and even at mass-production with 95% reduction in cost from right now, that will add $4-5 million to the cost of the missile over any non-polynitrocubane explosive currently in existence. It's that expensive, and anyone who thinks it'll get that much cheaper is ignoring key facts. Plus, at that speed and that payload, it's impossible for the missile to be less than 4 times the listed weight, especially without air launch.


@ Southeastasia. In most tank guns, the barrel length is pretty well standard, and thus not worth mentioning. The L/55, which is the one listed, is NOT standard (it's 25% longer), which is why it's noted, but as much as a designation as for reference as you suspect.
The L/44 listed for the export variants of the Timberwolf and Iron Cheetah, is actually the standard length, but is mentioned there to specifically avoid confusion with the longer weapons on the real production models.

In short, if it's not listed, and is a 120mm gun, assume it is 44 calbers long.

EDIT:

While on the subject of procurement:
The Stevid MoD, realising that the possiblity that PR for the PADSHA electronics and defensives systems deal could fall through, we wish to aquire some of CSJMI's more lighter tanks as a replacement for Stevid's older MBTs. One such Tank that has caught our attention- the Black Lanner 2 Medium Tank.

If you would permit us to purchase this armoured vehicle then we will wire you the below stated amount.

1,2,4,& 5 are all answered by looking at the actual info post. Clicking on the big bold "LAVs & Variants" will take you there. For deployability, it's on par with the Stryker and LAV-III. Most variants can be transported in a C-130, and all can be carried by the lengthened version. If you're curious about other things, it varies. But with the dimensions and weight, you just need to know the info about the transports.

OOC: for logistics and maintenance demands, do please consider that I don't know everything, am not part of the military nor privy to such information, and even if I was, there's a bit much in here to expect me to know such details about everything. I can't find that info for more than a handful of things, so I leave it out. Just assume a bit below average. Smoke Jaguar weapons are known more for reliability and ease of maintenance than for their technical stats.

I didn't think there was a whole lot of point to going that far out on the trailers, since the basic things won't change. All I can do is up the price and improve a few minor technical details.

OOC: Yeah, I would kind of say so. A thing to note when it comes to Mac is that he tends to go for somewhat higher-end tech. That means more malfunctions and breakdowns, etc. My tanks would be a bit more simple, easier to repair and maintain, and would probably be breaking down at notably lower rate than his. That's where the advantage over all the uber-tanks lies.

Greetings again, after reveiwing your new updated storefront and veiwing the newer tank models on sale, we wish to approch your company again with a bid of procurement. We lack an heavy MBT that we could use in the fight against the Golden Throne- the tanks you have sold us so far do indeed live up to the job but we would like a tank with that extra punch and with a reputation on being a durable model. One such model is your latest tank varient- the Dire Wolf II Heavy Tank. We understand this is a sensitive unit but we hope you consider our offer which is larger than most of our previous offers:

Dire Wolf II Heavy Tank: Cost= 24 Million per unit

Offer: 500x Dire Wolf II Heavy Tank

Total Cost: 24 Million*500= 12 Billion USD

We hope that, assuming you accept the offer, the ordered tanks could arrive complete as soon as possible. If this isn't possible then we are willing to wait the times you set.

Thank You for you attention sirs.

Dear esteemed sirs,

It has been too long since we last placed an order with this particular weapons storefront mainly because the equipment you previously sold us has been, and still current is, put through its paces. We are more than extremely satisfied with the performances the tanks and aircraft you have sold us, most notably are the Iron Cheetahs (both PADSHA and non-PADSHA variants) and F-36 Kunai Interceptors which have seen action in Stevidian colonies and currently seeing successful action against the Merkar Republic in the Golden War of Succession. Our expectation of the tanks has been surpassed beyond what we were assuming and we are more than happy with the results they are producing on the battlefield.

However, the threat of invasion continues to loom over this government and back-up homeland defence procedures are require if this country is to stand up to the armoured might of the Golden Throne who possess some of the best and finest armoured vehicles in the world. The Iron Cheetahs you supplied us, we feel, are inadequate to fulfil indefinite defence against just a super power while we do feel that they will put up a brave fight if invasion does occur. It is for this reason we wish to acquire more armoured units from your storefront:

Dire Wolf II x 300= $7,200,000,000
Thundercat C MBT x 500= $5,100,000,000
