We are selling the Swedish 103C S-tank, a lightish tank/tank destroyer (depending on how you classify it) ,and an original assault gun-mortar. High quality products at a reasonable price. We are willing to discuss a deal for a first international sale of the 103C, say a 10% discount, possibly more for a large sale.

FT-10 'Whitefire' MLRS

FT-10 firing a salvo of 2 220mm rockets

------------DESIGN---------

As you can see, it has what looks like a T-80's base, with is sleek low profile and ER armor. But in a twist of design, the small turret has been replaced by a huge rocket pod, capable of holding 30 of the 220mm rocket.

Having a tanks body means it has a large amount of armor to protect the crew, and has armor enough to stop the penetration of shells up to 120mm in size (less if ET Cannons are involved.) Also, the solid base allows more rockets to be added to the pod above it, and larger munitions can be carried.

Notice the tank like body

------------ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS----------

This state of the art MLRS is fitted with state of the art electronics and systems, and can engage targets to as far as the rockets it carries allows. Using Freedom Countries latest and greatest technology, it can select targets designated to it by a given locater, be it a Spy Plane, GPS satellite or other military units, such as ground troops with designators or tanks needing cover.

The Missiles are guided by a seperate unit, called the MGU or Missile Guidance Unit. The targets are fed through the designator system from an outiside source, and as long as the position of the target is given until the missile strikes, it can be hit.

To avoid counter battery fire, the latest EMP and jammers are used. Derivatives of the famous Russian Arena and Shorta systems are used, to fool an enemy missile (be it guided).

----------WEAPONARY-------------

Attached to the main body, the rocket pod is capable of holding 30 220mm rockets, which have a range of 50 miles plus. These rockets are guided by the fire control systems, and are quite maneuverable, enough to respond to quick, small flight changes directed by the FCS.

This pod can rotate 360 degrees on what would be the tank turrets slot, and has a turret like base which it rotates on. At the front of the tank is a .50 cal machine gun, on its own pedastol. There are a selection of weapons in a compartment in the cabin, which contains 3 FC-57 Assault Rifles, a LAW, and several bulletproof vests.

It only really needs a crew of 2, but a crew of 3 is best, to operate the computers, drive the thing, and a reloader/mechanic, who does what the name suggests. It is a low maintenance vehicle, that can be reloaded easily due to the rockets being able to lower and raise, turn and twist.

------------OVERALL-----------

Overall, this is a good missile system, capable of long range bombardment and destruction. Heavily armored and capable of dealing a large punch (larger than that of the M270 MLRS), it is a fairly ideal MLRS system.

All of this, including weapons and a full load of rockets, all for 8 Million USD.

Thats right, 8 Million USD!!!

Light howizters: are these to be self propelled or towed? if you are looking for an SPG then our Bowman might fit your needs:
http://www.meatballs.terminator.org.uk/crookfur/vehicles.html#bowman

light MLRS: Our Naga definatly fits the bill, while not the lightest around it is still rther respectably mobile:
http://www.meatballs.terminator.org.uk/crookfur/vehicles.html#naga

Wheeled tank destroyers: Gun or missile? for both i can submit varients of my Stoat light armored vehcile, one with an ATGM system or one with a 120mm gun:

Light tanks: Our Koshi fits your needs well, it is light and fast and while currently only armed with a 105mm gun (can be upgraded to a 120mm system or a 105mm ETC gun) it can fire our M9 ATGMs which can deal with a wide variety of modern armor:

New rifle: Well we can offer you simply THE best modern tech small arm solutions, the S1A3 and S7A3 rifles, both use the 6.25x43mm round (indentified as the optimum infantry round) and offer either a bullpup (S1A3) or conventional arrangement (S7A3):

both can use our AM1 grenade launcher:

Your final requirement of a price less than $1mil per unit on armored equipment is seen as being a little on the low side, and not soemthing we feel we can reach without compromising too much.
