The Minister of War, Anthony Callisto paced back and forth in his office, waiting for replies from weapons contractors, when he BUMPed his knee on the table and swore quite loudly.

The Imperial Arms Corporation, Akaton's largest weapons manufacturer has something you will probably like.

Autonomous City-states, we'll take 16,000 of those units you have for offer. 3,600,000 USD has been wired.

One, there aren't that many B-7s in the entire world. Two, that's $225 million per airframe. $225,000,000. You've simply put part of a down payment on one airframe. Recalculate your order, please.

Dear Sirs:

would you be interested in purchasing our Targeted Electro-Magnetic Pulse (TEMP) missile & aircraft defense systems for planes, ships, etc.? Basically, what it does is send a focused EMP at missiles (and aircraft if possible) that are approaching the craft which completely shuts down electronic systems for anywhere from 15 sec. to 2 1/2 minutes. Effectiveness of the pulse and targeting accuracy falls off with distance from the target and relative speeds, but at velocity of Mach 1.5 for the target and 32 knots for a TEMP equipped battleship, the standard Hornet jet aircraft is effectively rendered useless as an attack 94% of the time at distances of less than 0.97 miles.

If interested our price is 275,000 USD per aircraft or 205,000 USD per unit onboard a naval vessel, tank, etc. (we recommend a minimum of 2 units on a standard tank and 10 units {spread out around the ship's perimeter and on the conning tower} on a standard Nimitz class Aircraft Carrier. Most jet fighters can be outfitted with only one TEMP system, however the stresses involved in jet speeds on the structures as well as targeting issues inherent at those speeds result in mounting and targeting system cost overheads that neccesitate a higher price). The items come with an uncoditional 5 NS year money back guarrantee with onsite parts and labor provided.

Sincerely,
Gen. Jack T. Ripper
CEO, W.M.D. Inc.
