Aequatian Military Industries Defence Contractors have been providing the Aequatian military along with those of several other national militaries since the creation of the firm at the Republic's founding. The company has provided a wide range of military equipment, vehicles and weapons ranging from small arms to combat vehicles to naval vessels and aircraft. While developing indigenous projects, A.M.I. is also willing to work in co-operation with foreign firms to develop custom projects with other nations to improve the relations between them and the Aequatian Republic.

Aircraft Carriers

Warspite Class Fleet Carrier

The mainstay of the fleet, the Warspite class has been the leading carrier design within the Aequatian Navy since the retirement of the Formidable class super carriers. The original design called for conventional power plants, but the use of nuclear plants was deemed more efficient and installed in replacement of the original gasoline turbines.
