Width:

4.00 meters, 400 cm

Height:

2.82 meters, 282 cm

Max. Range:

450 kilometers

Fuel Capacity:

Armor:

Explosive Reactive Armor. Krypsen on frontal surfaces.
Exact composition classified.
Thickness up to 0.65 meters in some areas.
After the ERA is a moderate layer of Kevlar, followed by a thin, but reinforced titanium layer.

N-V Equip.:

Fully equipped with "Sentinel" night-vision equipment

Ventilation:

Full ventilation system, NBC Package fitted as standard

Obstacle:

1.16 meters

Engine:

Front-mounted
TMS-A6-V16 Diesel (Terrainian Motor Systems)

======================================================

Sensors/Viewports:

Radar imaging & laser targeting systems for commander, (radar imaging), gunner (radar imaging and laser targeting) and driver (radar imaging). Rear view camera fitted for increased driver awareness of surroundings.

Turret-mounted IR sight for all occupants.

Advanced, immediate target recognition system for both gunner and commander.

======================================================

Radar and Communication:

The tank’s 14 computers detect and monitor up to 8 hostile targets on-screen, and simultaneously attack them at phenomenal rates of fire thanks to the powerful, double smoothbore guns. Also, the tank can detect mines using groundbreaking EPLIT (Earth-penetrating Laser Identification Technology) which is very simple in concept – It sends a high frequency wave that penetrates the ground. The reflected waves are then recorded and analyzed. Using a set of encoded metal frequencies in the computer, the computer compares analyzed data with the encoded data, and alerts the crew of any possible hazards. However, this system can be inaccurate, especially when activated on the move, thus the front and bottom of the tank have been heavily reinforced to shield against multiple explosions of different anti-tank mines and missiles, thanks to Kryspen armor.

The D-11-Apocalypse can detect incoming threats, and obliterate them via the mortars (land targets, if main guns are occupied) or the BuckDart EDSM system (missiles, land targets, or air units).

GPS and other navigation and communication systems are fitted as standard on all variants.

======================================================

The double, smoothbore gun:

The main armament of the D-11-Apocalypse has caused much controversy at Greenmanbry’s DoD and Ne5T-Corp’s Engineering Division. The gun is the Ne5T-Corp version of the gun on the Russian-made T-90 S. However, two guns have been fitted to the turret. Note: The guns do not fire at the same target, and the guns are PREVENTED from firing simultaneously by the tank’s firing mechanisms. Thus, while one gun locks on a target, the other actively seeks a second target in the scope of vision and locks on it. When the first gun fires, the second gun receives a green light to fire its shell. Using this system, a heavy main battle tank can be crushed very quickly, and the rate of fire is practically halved.

======================================================

Pricing and Production Rights:

The D-11-Apocalypse is now being sold to Greenmanbry's army by Ne5T-Corp. The Greenmanbry DoD has tested and approved the mass production of the MBT. Greenmanbry’s DoD is destined to acquire 3910 units of the D-11-Apocalypse, and they will be employed with Greenmanbry’s 5th Mechanized Division, 1st Cavalry Division, and Elite Dominion Forces.

The standard D-11-Apocalypse is priced at $6.8 million. However, you might be interested in the variations below that make the D-11 an even more potent weapon.

The production rights for the D-11 will not be sold at the moment, since the development is still not 100% complete, but rest assured they will be at a later stage.

======================================================

Variations – Additional Equipment:

CDWv – Complete Desert Warfare Variation

1.Skirts that cover the tank’s chains, thus providing additional protection for the suspension and mobility systems.
2.An additional BuckDart tube to be fitted on the turret, near the system’s default BuckDart tube.
3.Double the BuckDart EDSM ammunition on the normal tank.
4.Smoke Generators.
5.ADRPS – To help minimize the effects of dust and air impurities.
ADRPS = (Adaptive Dust Restriction and Prevention System)

TPIv – Territory Penetration or Invasion Variation

1.Skirts that cover the tank’s chains, thus providing additional protection for the suspension and mobility systems.
2.STFP (Saber-Tooth Front Plow), an extreme plow made from Krypsen that allows for the complete annihilation of enemy tank pits, mines, restrictive forests and of course, any bodies or machines present in front of the plow.
3.A more powerful and more secure locking mechanism for all hatches and openings, eliminating the possibility of tank-hijacking or grenade projection into the cabin.

.:AERIAL CRAFT:.

Qahir-160M Transport Aircraft:

http://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/transall/images/transall1.jpg

The Qahir-class transport aircraft was the result of a program started by Minister of Defense Neil Ferdinand in early 2004. Several prototypes, including the 160A, 160C, and 160K were found to be inadequate due to their many shortcomings and production-related defects. These shortcomings included the short-range of the aircraft and the lack of mid-air refueling apparatus. A major defect was the tendancy of their rear landing gears to collapse on touchdown.

A new program was initiated by the DoD, and this time, Porosz was asked to come up with the preliminary designs for an all-weather, light transport aircraft. The 160M was born.

The 160M is in many ways a radical aircraft. It is a symbol. A symbol of Greenmanbry's entry into the aircraft industry.

The 160M comes in many variations. Although made initially for transport, it can also be employed as an AWACS system with proper adjustments, a reconnaisance and electronic surveillance aircraft, a medical evacuation unit, an airborne command and control post, or even a refueling aircraft.

With a length of 46.5 meters, a height of 13 meters, and a wingspan of 50 meters, the 160M is a robust, practical, economical, and versatile machine. It can carry loads of up to 11,000 kilograms. Depending on the mission, the 160M can carry light reconnaisance vehicles, support vehicles, humvees, or artillery guns. It can carry up to 110 combat soldiers or 85 medical stretchers. The aircraft's crew includes 2 pilots, 2 operations engineers, and two navigation officers.

With a net weight of 64 tons, the aircraft is lighter than one of Porosz's rugged tanks. Yet, it can carry up to 32,000 pounds of fuel in its six wing tanks. The aircraft's service celing is 35,000 feet, but it can maintain low-level flight for tactical operations. The aircraft's thrust is delivered by two turboprop engines, model GTP-33, manufactured by Porosz. Each engine is rated at 6,150 horsepower, and can propel the 160M to speeds of up to 550 kilometers per hour. The aircraft's range is 2,100 kilometers, but it may be refueled during flight.

The plane sports a variety of cockpit systems including a heads-up display, fighter-suited electronic warfare suites that incorporate radar warning receivers, a modern projectile approach warning system, as well as standard chaff and decoy dispensers. The plane is also fitted with inertial stability units and a versatile global positioning system. The incorporated data management systems control the powerful processors on this aircraft, which, in the AWACS configuration, can perform missions of detection, interception, analysis, and classification of radio waves and transmissions.

Ludicrous Hypersonic Spy-Plane:

The Ludicrous is a hypersonic spy plane created by Porosz for the DoD, after the latter initiated a contract with Porosz to produce spy planes in order to monitor the turbulent conditions in the Middle East. It is designed for fast penetration into enemy territory, quick but detailed observation, followed by a rapid exit. The main benefit of Ludicrous is its speed. Being a hypersonic spy plane, it managed to pass the Mach 5 barrier only once during testing, and for a brief interval of time.

Ludicrous is large. It has a wingspan of 86 meters, a length of 94 meters, and a fuel capacity of 72,000 pounds. It employs the latest in RAMJET technology. Ludicrous takes off on its own, and is then propelled by a solid-fuel rocket booster, located on its underbelly, to a speed of Mach 1.8. At Mach 1.8, the booster is jettisoned, and the aircraft continues its push to Mach 2 using the 72,000 pounds of fuel it has on-board.

When Mach 2 is reached, the turbine goes offline, and the RAMJET engine kicks in. The efficient RAMJET sustains the plane's enormous speeds throughout its mission. The plane only slows down to under Mach 2 after exiting enemy territory, at which point the RAMJET goes offline, and the plane glides back to its scheduled landing location.

Ludicrous is very aerodynamic. It is sleek, slim, and more-or-less angular. No external appendanges mean drag is reduced, thus increasing efficiency. The plane also employs the latest RAM coatings, not seen in the picture, and has a very low heat signature. It has a service ceiling of 89,000 feet, which means the chances of it being intercepted by fighter aircraft are very low, if existent.

The plane's turbines are GTJ-11 turbojets delivering up to 40,000 pounds of thrust. Ludicrous has a very high touchdown speed and requires a long runway... and we mean a long runway, one up to 10 miles in length.

The crew is composed of a pilot and a navigation officer, as well as a data processing officer. All three are housed in a cockpit at the front of the aircraft. The aircraft captures its images using an advanced array of on-board cameras and sensors, which can also be customized according to the mission requirements.

H-16 Flame GBJ:

The Flame GBJ, or Ground Bombardment Jet, is a precise, fast, all-seeing artillery gun. The Flame is used mostly as a support aircraft. It is a platform sporting several powerful munitions that can be locked onto, and fired at, armor on the battlefield.

Although it retains the sleek figure of the fighter aircraft it was developed from, the Flame has been optimized for low-level and low-speed flying. The huge stores of munitions have decreased the plane's speed considerably to mid-subsonic levels. That is correct. The plane is not supersonic. It's maximum speed is in the range of Mach 0.68. The stores mentioned earlier mean the plane's external hardpoints had to be thoroughly re-designed. They are now very rigid pylons. The wing has also become a very strong structure, capable of handling the immense loads and forces that result from carrying and firing the rockets.

The Flame is a replacement for the A-10 Warthog, which has long-since retired from the GMB Airforce. 18 meters long, 5 meters high, with a wingspan of 17.4 meters, the H-16 is larger than the A-10. It's two GTJ-1 engines are capable of delivering up to 11,000 pounds of thrust each. The aircraft's range is in the vicinity of 1,300 km and has a service ceiling of 40,000 feet.

There are four "stores of munition", which are multiple launch rocket systems capable of carrying five rockets each. The rockets are of a wide variety, and range from small hellfire missiles to the GMB Army's large K-15 rockets, the equivalent of the the US Army's M-26 munition.

A 7 meter long, 300 kilogram, 8 barreled gattling gun has been developed for this aircraft, and rests comfortably between the main landing gear doors.
