The Confederacy of Monte Castello requires new, high-tech weaponry. We are looking to purchase naval, land and air weapons and units with a budget of $5 trillion. All offers should be presented here from parties interested in supplying us.

Thank you.

~ Release from the Ministry of Defence

We can offer you various chemical and biological weapons

We find it hard to believe that only ONE nation is willing to take up the offer of a slice of this $5 TRILLION weapons buying program. Monte Castello is especially interested in ultra high-tech NAVAL technology, if that is any encouragement.

Okay. I have several new naval vessels. See here (http://www.freewebs.com/phoenixius/pims.htm) for all my vehicles.

I am also designing a new MBT that is built to wistand even the best tanks equiped with ET guns.

New Gondor expresses its concern at this latest 'spending spree' by the Confederacy.

Lamezville also express there concern of the exceptional amount of money being thrown into a military here. We are demilitarised and as of such our funding can go to the people; road maintenance, education, industry, hospitals etc. With $5trillion you could create a Utopia. However, you are spending it on your military. We see this as a threat to our own nation who took the risk of unilateral disarmament in the hope of future multinational disarmament. Your budget is a step in the wrong direction and we hope you reconsider it.

We are not interested in the concerns of the international community. It is our right to procure armaments in order to be able to defend ourselves against foreign aggressors. In this world, we have observed nations as young as Feb 2004 using ICBMs and the like, something which we see as improbable but in light of that we have decided to purchase a whole new armoury.

Monte Castello dies not interfere with the business of other nations, and we expect the same in return. Our stance of armed neutrality serves to discourage potential invaders, and allows our people to feel secure.

Lamezville has nothing to fear from us as long as it does not interfere with the Confederacy of Monte Castello and its workings.

~ Statement from the Office of the President

Are there any more arms manufacturers who wish to present themselves to us in order to gain a share of this money?

Well as always there is the option of going with Crookfur Arms in your quest to defend your nation: http://www.meatballs.terminator.org.uk/crookfur/

This aircraft, still currently under development as a joint project between Zoogiedom and Penguisiana, is going to be a stealthy, lethal, and advanced fighter that will be able to outperform the JSF in just about every way imaginable. It too will feature CTOL and ASTOVL capabilities.

This is a very secretive project, so this picture is for OOC purposes only...

Krulltor is also looking into it for a fighter contract.

The finest ships in all the land. You wont get any untill the recent conflict is over (dont want your ships getting blown up do we). Havent updated them yet but i will soon

Dominator-Class Battleship

NO IMAGE AVALIBLE

Length: 900 ft.

Beam: 110 ft.

Draft: 40 ft.

Height above water: 13 ft.

Bunkerage: 120 24 Inch shells, reloads for THEL

Offensive Armament: 2 24in. x 700 ft.

Shell specifics: 2000 lb. warhead, fold out directional fins, 1000 lbs rocket motor. Speed, 2-3 Mach. Range, 100 miles. Revolver style reloading system.

Loading system: 3 Chambered revolver, 5 rounds per minute(single cannon)

Defensive Armament: 4 topside THEL

Propulsion: 2 Nuclear Reactors

Cost: $4,000,000,000

This is the next generation in gun and battle ship technology. The 2, 24 Inch guns run nearly the entire length of the ship and use a multichambered design.

http://www.world-famous.com/Alien-Presence/Alien-Presence-Photos/Alien%20U-.JPG

As you can see firing chambers run up the side of the ground based test cannon, this allows the shell to maintain constant acceleration through the entire 700 ft. length of the barrel. Each shell is significantly cheaper then the Tomahawk missile, and can deliver more firepower on target. The tradeoff is range, the 24 in. shell has much more kenetic energy but the Tomahawk has range. The Dominator has these barrels barely poking above the deck, due to the guided nature of these shells the Dominator needs only be pointed in the general direction of the target. This class of battleship is so low to the water due to its low radar profile, the current profile is found on modern Arleigh Burke-class destroyers. Except for four THEL stations on the top and the snouts of the cannons the deck of the Dominator is completely flat, the entire ship is solid black. The Dominator sports a revolver style reloading system, it works by a rotating trichambered system. Assume the 24 inch gun has just been fired, the first chamber will be out from behind the gun. Then at the first station the 3,000 rocketshell is loaded into the chamber, at the second station the powder bags are put in place, at the third station the bags and shell is loaded into the cannon and the cannon is fired.


EB-52 Megafortress

http://www.fscorner.com/images2/uploads02/aug/eb52_v3.jpg
http://www.fsplanet.com/images2/eb52_v2.jpg


Type: Modified B-52 Bomber

Max Speed: Mach 1.2

Range: 12,000 km un-refueled

Modifications: Steath, Improved ECM, Deployable Decoys, LADAR

Weapons: 12 external AMRAAM's, Stinger Air Mines(Rear launched short range unpowered projectiles that create clouds of razor sharp metal, tears apart engines and exposed surfaces), up to 4 Flighthawks.

Payload: 40,000 lbs, 6 external hardpoints/25,000 lbs(slightly increases radar crosssection with non-stealth munitions).

Cost: $2,000,000,000


A modification of the lumbering B-52 the Megafortress is everything the Stratofortress was not. Actively employing the lastest in Electronic Counter measures and jamming systems as well as the advanced LADAR systems. LADAR has been used in artillery but until recently no one has put these new sensors in aeroplanes. Not only does the stealthiness of the Megafortress protect it from attack but it is also it is armed with externally mounted rotary launchers and ATA missiles. The internal launchers can be outfitted with anything from Harpoon antiship missiles to HARM antiradiation missiles.


EB-1C Megafortress II

http://www.uga.edu/afrotc/cadets/cadetguide/Planes/B-1B.gif

Type: Modified B-1 Bomber

Max Speed: Mach 2.3

Range: 13,000 km un-refueled

Modifications: Improved Steath, Improved ECM, Deployable Decoys, LADAR(Laser Radar)

Weapons: Stinger Air Mines(Rear launched short range unpowered projectiles that create clouds of razor sharp metal, tears apart engines and exposed surfaces)

Payload: 50,000 lbs, 0 external hardpoints

Cost: $2,500,000,000


The next generation of the Megafortress project is the modified version of the B-1B Lancer. Improving on the already existing qualities of the Megafortress the Megafortress II incorperates even better stealthiness and better ECM. Like the EB-52 the Megafortress II carries internal launchers that can carry a wide variety of weapons including offensice missiles. The higher speed and rugged exteroir make it a perfect deep strike and first strike weapon. Only craft that can launch Lancelot Anti-Ballistic Missile.


Flighthawk

http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/op-ed/techwar/images/030216uav200.jpg

Type: Unmanned Aerial Attack Vehicle

Weapons: 2 internal bays(2 1,000 lb bombs or 2 AMRAAM's) 2 external hardpoints(increases radar crosssection) and 20mm Gatling with 10,000 rounds.

Max Speed: Mach 2.5

Endurance: 2 hours cruising, combat uses twice as much fuel.

Range: 2 km

Weight: 5,000 lbs

Cost: $5,000,000



The Flighthawk is only deployable from an EB-52, each is controlled by a pilot in the bomber and launched from an external hardpoint. The reason for the Megafortress being the only craft able to launch them is the complex electronics needed to fly the Flighthawks. Small and stealthy the only drawbacks are the limited range a Flighthawk can go from the Mothership and the limited ammo a Flighthawk can carry. Often the Flighthawk is reduced to hunting down opponents with the gun, making them easier to find and hit. The maximum an EB-52 can carry is four Flighthawks due to crew limitations onboard.
