Jonothanian Defence Notification

Jonothana
18-07-2004, 12:24
From The Office of the King's Defence Minister

Some time ago, there was a double bombing in Jonothana and an emergency meeting was held, with the outcome that we improve our military substantially. This operation was done in secret, and only high-ranking members of the army were fully clear of the situation. Now this operation has been completed the internal government of Jonothana has decided that this information be declassified.

These are the aircraft that were built in this operation. There have been other changes and additions, but the aircraft are the most substantial. This report will soon be at the Defence Ministry's Website, with a thumbnail version for 56k viewers. We appologise for the poor setting out of this document.

All these weapons can be used by all our military braches should the require them.

Military structure

MI5 (internal) & MI6 (external) - Spec Ops

Army, Navy, Air Force - Special Forces

Police, Special Police, Authorised Investigators

The next phase is ground vehicles.

I can tell you just looked up reandom pictures of guns and posted them.....no military uses such a variety, you dont see the USA in RL using AK-47s and M-16s, do you? You dont. And i think a Desert Eagle is a little over doing it for a standard firearm, a USP or Beretta 9Mwould work better.
Jonothana
04-08-2004, 15:19
No, I thought it through, and all of the guns will be assigned to their different divisions.
Akita-Ryuvius
04-08-2004, 21:33
-_- yeah right...seems to me you dont know how to run an army's Arsenal.
Jonothana
04-08-2004, 22:35
THIS IS NOT JUST FOR THE ARMY! This is MI5 and 6, spec ops and alot more...

Generia would be interested in purchasing a few of your SR-71 transport variants.
Akita-Ryuvius
05-08-2004, 03:48
Still.....it is a bit odd to have so many different planes, guns and stuff. And arent MI5 and 6 secret organizations? Why are you brodcasting what they have? That seems a bit stupid. You really dont know what your doing, do you?
Jonothana
05-08-2004, 12:18
It's for rping purposes. Anyway, MI 5 and 6 are secret organisations, we just are releaseing what guns they have so we can say that we kiled him, not just knocked him out with a high powered punch.

He is a hypothetical person.
