TRIDON Air Defense Gun Systems (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/row/trika2_bws_net.jpg)
The TRIDON Air Defense Gun System is a 40 mm VSHORAD development concept in several configurations. TRIDON can also be a cost-effective upgrading alternative and has been configured to meet and destroy the air threat wherever it appears. It is a high fire-power, highly mobile autonomous 40 mm gun system mounted on a 6x6 all-terrain chassis. The system concept gives short reaction time, high firing endurance and deployment in less than 60 seconds.

Everyting required to combat the enemy, from command and control to ammunition and spares is carried on mount. And with Bofors 40 mm 3P ammunition it can take on almost any threat and defeat lightly armoured vehicles, surface targets, concealed troops and attack helicopers.

OOC: Everyone is selling old equipment now....nice.

Heh, I did that - I was going through my old posts and discovered I'd bought something in the region of 1,000 tanks when I was a few days old - I just decided that purchase didn't happen. I was pretty stupid back then.

On another note, the whole 'selling-military-surplus' idea is a very good way of RP'ing a storefront - it's what I do every now and then and it stops the people who bitch about storefronts not being IC dead in their tracks.
Keep up the good work, I'll keep an eye on this (provided you don't run out of stock or anything - heh) for when my budget is a little stronger (a very large investment elsewhere has tied up almost all my funds)

As a show of good faith, we'll take a Pegasus-class for testing - Hydrofoils strike us as an interesting technology... 80m wired upon confirmation.
