OOC: This is MT/near-PMT stuff.

After years of drinking and overall forgetting to do something, the Leafanistani Arms Concern remembered they had a mech design to build. Hurridely slapping together ideas, and rushing them to the Development plant created 2 working designs (proof-of-concept).

HVM-01

Quickly designed and built it is a T-55 tank platform, with a MI-24 Hind Body installed. The cockpit is more heavily armoured and the rotors have been taken off. Heavy, somewhat slow, its usefulness is dubious.

A computer controls power, so the vehicle slows when turning the body, the body can turn a full 360 degrees in 6 seconds, though its recommended it turns slower for the crew's sake.

Crew: 3 (commander, gunner, secondary gunner)
Armament: 1 30mm Cannon (forward mounted)
1 12.7mm AA gun (swivel mounted on top)
8 x ATGMs (4 per pylon, 4 starboard, 4 port)
4 x 57mm Rocket Pods (2 per side)
2 x AAGM (2 per side)
Armour: 250mm on Platform; 50mm Titanium Armour on Body (withstand 20mm Cannon fire)
Speed: 45 km/h (off-road)
Range: 390 km

$3 million US to construct from scratch

LVPM-01

A light powered suit for the average soldier, it combines a commercial design with military upgrades. The suit has had all its components covered up and its internal Lithium-Ion batteries switched to advanced military designs. Its titanium armour can resist up to 12.7mm rounds and can take a extremity hit from an RPG. The soldier uses a front facing LCD screen, and a special finger controlled system.

Crew: 1
Armament: 12.7mm gun on one hand (125 rounds on board) or 7.62mm gun with (250 rounds stored on board)
2 Shoulder Mounted 7.62 MGs (75 interal rounds)
1 40mm Grenade Launcher, autoloaded (5 extra rounds on board) on other arm
Externally 40mm Rocket Pods can be added
Armour: 15mm Titanium and Vanadium Steel
Speed: 15 kph
Range: 75 km per charge

$950,000 US each

We shall take 2 of each for evaluation, and want permission to make some apparently badly needed upgrades and modifications. $7,900,000 has been wired.
