Name: Tiger
Mark: T.Mk.1
Manufacturers: Severskian Land Combat Systems, SAI-Land, Harunaan Motor Industri.
Main Armorment: 155mm HV Cannon
Secondary Armorment: 1*15.5mm Coax, 2*15.5mm Heavy MG mounted on turret roof.
Ammo: 45 155mm, 3000 15.5mm
Engine: 1*HMI W-24 diesil, 2,500 bHp
Max Speed: 60 mph
Max Range: 600 miles
Weight: 73 tons.
Armor: Classified
Armor type: Composite/steel
Froding: Amphib. w/ preporation.
Night vision equipment: Driver/gunner/commander (IFR and NV)
NBC protection: yes.

This tank was designed arround its main armorment, a 155mm high velocity cannon. This gun is the most important feature of this tank. 35mm bigger then the M-1A1/A2's cannon, the 155mm fires an extreemly high velocity round, that contains a powerful charge. A charge powerful enough to destroy an Abrams at 7 miles distance.

Cost is 3.5 million USD per unit. Other discounts will be given on a case by case basis. Licenses are avalible.

The Tiger is vertually identical to the Ocelot externally, with most diffrences being related to the engine and armor composition. The origional name for this tank was Ocelot T.Mk.2, but it was decided to make it a new type.

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/row/leopard-05.jpg

The engine in the Tiger is a 24 cylinder W diesel, developing 2,400 bhp. This large reserve of power is used to give the Tiger around the best acceleration of any tank ever. This engine is also highly efficent, giveing the same range as the Ocelot, but with twice the cylinders.

http://military-graphics.net/leopard2.jpg

The armor is where the diffrence between the tank destroyer and MBT is evident. The Tiger's armor package is mostly of light weight composites, with steel in small quanity. The purpose of useing composites is to keep the weight down, while the plastics themselves are over 5 times stronger then the steel that would normally have been used. This also has the advantage over Depleated Uranium of not being radioactive.

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/row/leopard-c1_58.jpg

The cannon, which made the Ocelot so desired, is the same. 155mm HV. The diffrence is, this time the shell information has been released. The 155mm HV cannon fires a green round. This green round is a Shaped charge composite round, with 55lbs of explosive contained inside of it. In order to defeat newer types of armor, a small explosive charge is carried on an extention on the front of the projectile. This charge acts to weaken the armor, literally "cracking" the armor, allowing the shaped charge to destroy its target.

Empire of Haukka can make contract with you. For a fighter aircraft we offer LCA(light combat aircraft). 35 LCA are sold to other countries and
Empire of Haukka has currently 730 LCA. Telegram us for further info or post in this thread.

The F-15 Eagle is an all-weather, extremely maneuverable, tactical fighter designed to gain and maintain air superiority in aerial combat. The Eagle's air superiority is achieved through a mixture of maneuverability and acceleration, range, weapons and avionics. The F-15 has electronic systems and weaponry to detect, acquire, track and attack enemy aircraft while operating in friendly or enemy-controlled airspace. Its weapons and flight control systems are designed so one person can safely and effectively perform air-to-air combat. It can penetrate enemy defense and outperform and outfight current or projected enemy aircraft.
The F-15's superior maneuverability and acceleration are achieved through high engine thrust-to-weight ratio and low wing loading. Low wing-loading (the ratio of aircraft weight to its wing area) is a vital factor in maneuverability and, combined with the high thrust-to-weight ratio, enables the aircraft to turn tightly without losing airspeed.
Primary Function Tactical fighter. Contractor McDonnell Douglas Corp. Power Plant Two Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-100 turbofan engines with afterburners. Thrust (C/D models) 25,000 pounds each engine ( 11,250 kilograms). Length 63 feet, 9 inches (19.43 meters). Height 18 feet, 8 inches (5.69 meters).

Range 3,450 miles (3,000 nautical miles) ferry range with conformal fuel tanks and three external fuel tanks. Armament 1 - M-61A1 20mm multibarrel internal gun, 940 rounds of ammunition

Crookfur always gets in before me. I also designed the T-7 and highly advise it as a heavy-MBT. If you want supperiority then check it out. It has sold like crazy and you can tell by the pages of posts on its storefront. Issues have been raised recently about it being an MBT. The fact is that it has so much armor and supperior firepower that it adds a lot to the weight and ground pressure. This is why I highly recomend it now as a heavy tank for defense or to show extreme force (good for shock and awe, 'Agh... indestructable tank! Ahh..') with speed, firepower, and invulnerability (I predict people will nag at me for this statement so I'll say to them that I mean this in theoretical terms, I know that if you drop a bomb on it that it isn't going to do much and that a 155mm might mess it up a little bit).

We are currently developing new anti-armor infantry weapons...

You might be interested in a Carrier design me and Unum Veritas are currently developing.

All right! I'm back! The decided upon contracts:
For the MBT- Crookfur T-7 is what we are looking to aquire.
For the light tank- Crookfur- The koshi
For the fighter- Kazakstania's(SP) "Snake"
For the attack helo-Kazakstania's(SP) Ka-58

We would like to buy production rights for all of these. Top dollar is offered.

If phyrric would post info, pics, and stats, they would be very kind.
Sword, are you sure you wouldn't consider selling production rights? It would be very profitable.
Exonerate- All I need is stats, info, and pics.

Sorry for the delay in replying:

Production rights to the Koshi come to $2.5billion.


The rights for the T-7 are handled a little differantly than usual, we do ask that you post in the main Gilgamesh thread here (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=70439)
with a statement of the number you wish to produce then once you have authorisation it is pretty mucha ssumed that actual costs etc are dealt with by lowly business managers. It is a little convoluted but it helps keep the T-7 a little bit special.

Money wired.
Thank you, it has been a pleasure doing business.

Because this is a project to expand your army in a longer time period I will sell these to you for 135M which is considerly less then the usual 175M we ask
