With the tremendous success of the C101A/B artillery, we have decided to embark on another project, this time a light gun, desgined to be used in conjuction with airbourne and in areas of extreme conditions. These guns will be able to work in warm and cold enviroments with only a change in the barrel. We are requesting funds to complete this gun as well as its fully digital aiming system, as opposed to traditional dials. Targets will be able to be keyed in and locked onto with GPS. This system will also be available as a retrofit to current C101A/B weapons. And like the C101's, this weapon can be quickly broken down and carried by tank, truck or man. This will also fire superlight ammo designed specificaly for this weapon.

With this, we hope to become an international leader in artillery technology. Very soon we hope to have complete carriers to carry this as well as any other guns we have. Any nation wishing to fund our research is guarenteed production rights based on the amount invested.

Thank you Wolfish, we require only capital, if you wish to fully fund, we require a direct unlimited line of funds, ind USD. We expect a bill of approximately 3-4 billion dollars US.

Should you wish to continue, we will simply bill you as we move along.

Thank you

That's pretty steep to develop a light-artillery piece. And Wolfish is not in the habit of writing blank cheques.

If you can provide us with some reasoning, we will continue to consider the viability of this project.

You will be given unlimited production rights to this weapon, including the ability to sell it, as well, after full research time, we have determined a cost of 640,000,000 USD.

Any funds you wish to contribute will be returned in artillery, full funding, or above 75% of total cost will give you complete ownership of the gun, excluding production rights, but no sale rights, for us.

Why don't you ever tell us the caliber of your artillery, is it a national secret :confused:

Caliber is defined by the producer, ideal caliber is 52mm shells, however other sizes may be implemented by the owner of the production rights.
