OOC: 'Cause I wanna have the best, I'm making new ideas always. However, posting them up in seperate threads isn't wise. So, I'll do it in one spot.

My first go in this format:

IC:

The new Trotsky Light Carrier and the Zaitsev II Destroyer

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v630/Senor_Nb3/Untitled-1copy.gif

Created to fill gaps in the New Dornalian People's Navy arsenal, these medium-light level ships are meant to perform escort and patrol duty for lesser cost than their big brothers. The Carrier is meant to bring a decent amount of fighters to bear when trouble strikes without overkill, the Destroyer is meant to improve on the flaws of the existing Zaitsev ISD type, removing the tower and adding a number of fixes for better movement.

Both ships feature the FTL-4 Bosun Drive, and an auxiliary FTL-3 Conventional Warp Drive, with a Hyperspace Ratio of 2.3x and MGLT Factor of 70. Zaitsev II is 900m long 500m tall, Trotsky is 800m long 800m tall. Both ships are cleared to use the Amethyst Stealth Detection System and other EW suites.

The Trotsky carries 56 GaG-3 Point Defense Guns, and 10 Warp Cannons, sacrificing weapons space for 300 fighter capacity. The Zaitsev II carries more, some 60 Warp Cannons and 50 Gag-3 PDG's, plus 16 Anaconda ToLa-3 Torpedo Launchers.

Demolisher Gun-

OOC: Inspired by the String Distruptor from Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. Apologies to Firaxis!

IC:

When ilegally experimenting with the Warp Cannons, Sgt. Mathers of the MacAllister Military Reservation accidentally hit upon a power setting that destroyed the leg of a Mobile Suit quite quickly, reducing it to nothing.

Initally chastised, it was later found that the ingenous mods altered the beam to focus enough power to break up objects at the molecular, nay, the sub-molecular level. These mods had burned out a perfectly good Warp Cannon, indication of needed refinements, but a new weapon had been introduced.

Pure Energy Replicators-

Complaints have surfaced that the existing replicator systems are not efficent and portable enough for carry on the battlefield and in the factory. Civilians have also complained about the need for a more convienent replicator that won't run out of fuel in mid-replication.

To this end, research using technologies culled from the Warp Cannon and the Bosun Drive have, astoundingly, worked to improve the Replicator. It seems that experimental rigs so far, large and bulky ones at universities all over, have engineered an energy-to-matter process that uses intense amounts of energy and EM fields to skip the fuel and go directly to manufacture of the desired item.

Two processes exist, a direct energy-matter converter and a energy-fuel-product converter. These are being evaluated and tested by the Commissariat of Science to find the best one.

Shield Steel-

OOC: Yes, it is from X-Com: UFO Defense. And yes, it does look kinda funny.

http://www.xcomufo.com/x1ufopaedia/pics/big/shot0016.png

Invented by the Red Army Special Labs, the Shield Steel System (Sistema de Acero Protector) is a system consisting of a pressurized suit of Leninite Steel Plates, within which are threaded conductive elements. These elements produce a mild protective shield when exposed to electricity that can resist bullets and most energy and railgun shots. To this end, a 14v Power Pack is located on the back of the suit, combined with a carrying system for supplies, to power the shield and all of the systems on the suit, which is intended for all environments.

And.......yeah. WHOO?

Posted. Coming up: the Mao Zedong III and the Prochkhorovka II. They use the same hull, but the similarities end there.

The Eshirian Sovereignty believes that it may be able to assist with development of the Matter energy converting systems. The main reason for this is the level of proliferation of such systems throughout our civilian and military sectors.

We do have a basic concept down already, but we could use a little help.

------

Explosives- (OOC: These are Ideas.....and I will admit, my science is not the best. But I did not come to make a science lesson. Just putting that out now.)

Taishonium- Recently cleared for field use, Taishonium is a new proprietary explosive type to be issued to Army Engineers, used in Grenades to replace existing materials, and is to be made available to civilians (in a lesser grade). Utilizing a classified compound derived from existing civil explosives, this substance is capable of producing an explosion of 800 kilojoules and higher.

Mark II Proton Torpedoes (El Cid)

Upgrades of the original Star Wars-style Proton Torpedo in use, this new type is simply an elongation of the torpedo from its original conical shape into a longer cone, whereupon an increased explosive payload and a Taishonium charge weighing 2-5kg is used to deliver 4x greater damage than a standard Torpedo. The torpedo also recieves enhanced electronics and increased manueverability thanks to the addition of enhanced steering thrusters.

Other torpedo types, such as concussion torpedoes and whatnot, are recieiving general upgrades in electronics and payload size and propulsion.

---------------

Mao Zedong III/Prochkhorovka II

Recognizing that the existing classes of Fleet Carrier and Battleship were paltry compared to other vessels, the Jensen Design Bureau decided to commission a serious redesign.

The new hull, which these designs are made from, resembles the USS Defiant, mixed with the Prometheus from Stargate. Also, the size has been increased to two and a half kilometers from the original one. Both are cleared to use the Amethyst System and other defensive suites.

Prochkhorovka can carry 4,000-4,500 total fighters, and has 20 Demolisher Guns and 50 Gauss Guns. It has enough replicator capacity for three months of supplies. Mao Zedong has a Super Warp Cannon, 25 Demolisher Guns, 25 Warp Cannons, 70 Gauss Guns, and 60 Anaconda Torpedo Launchers. Both have the FTL-3 Hyperdrive System, and are powered by Singularity Reactors. Hyperdrive Ratio is 2.3x for Prochkhorovka, and 1.9x for Mao Zedong, and MGLT Factor is 70 for Prochkhorovka, 67 for Mao Zedong. Maximum Speed is Mach 46 for Mao Zedong, Mach 56 for Prochkhorovka.

bump, updates.

Coming soon-Project Soma and Project Romero.

OOC: References for the two Projects are loosely based on Firefly and any zombie movie in existence, especially the Romeroverse.

Demolisher Gun-8/10

Pure Energy Replicator-10/15

Kroot Kalashnikov-

Though slugthrowers are antiquated by this time, they are still popular with gangers in the Workers State and local security forces, as well as those seeking a home defense weapon for low cost.

An interesting modification of the fabled AK-47 (held by some Patriotic Churchmen as a religious symbol) has come out of the Kroot Special Zone. Kroot tribesmen that had acquired these guns grew to love their rapid fire and their reliability, though the power was lacking to them. As such, they began modifying the guns by adding new sights, and introducing new Taishonium Civil Grade-based charges in the ammunition, and adding an ingnition system that is best described as half-railgun, half-slugthrower.

The resulting gun is a superb, if heavy weapon, that is capable of taking on most animal life, big or small, in any environment. They have a strong kick to them due to their upgunned charge. However, this has not detracted their popularity amongst human hunters and, alarmingly, gangsters and religious cultists alike. An interesting note to them is that these guns actually function in zero-oxygen environments; Taishonium is not dependent on oxygen or many other such gases for ignition.

Project Soma and Project Romero.

SECRET IC:

Project Soma- Derived from chemicals discovered by anthropologists on Kol'Tssien as part of local religious rituals, "Soma" induces an advanced state of apathy (to the point of death for want of oxygen or nourishment) in its purest form, synthesized in a lab. Experiments have been conducted to create a virus that will insert a DNA mutation that will cause the cells of the body to produce this pure chemical. Tested on criminals of all stripes, the chemicals are found to have a 85% effectiveness rate. Further research is being done on a way to feasibly get "Soma" into the field.

Project Romero- A naturally occuring form of virus discovered on a now classified world in the New Territories, the "Romero Strain" as it was dubbed originally caused natural embalment and muscle spasms long after death. When subjected to cross-breeding with other viruses (such as influenza and "mad cow" strains) and bacterae and exposure to controlled amounts of radiation, a mutation of the virus emerged that produced limited post-mortem mobility in subjects, a slight moaning, and an urge to attack anything that moves. Refinements are needed, but a feasible zombie virus is expected soon.

Mindworm Breeding Program-0/10

Mind Worms are a lifeform unique to Luxembourgia. They too are powerful psykers, and often will use their powers to wear down their prey before commencing burrowing into the prey. Many a foolish traveler has fallen prey to the worms; it is advised that contact should be avoided as much as possible, barring that, carry a flamethrower and pray you are not the gullible or weak-willed type.

What this guide does not tell you is that Mindworms are often found in various stages, from small, relatively less harmful clusters of worms that resemble spaghetti plates to massive, writhing clusters of worms that can consume entire beings and focus enough psychic power to tear an unprepared man's mind asunder in a short time. Mind worms also communicate, and display random patterns of attack that can range from coordinated attacks on settlements to a lone "boil" (local term for a worm group) of any shape or size preying upon wary travelers.

The Red Army has begun to collect living specimens of Mind Worms and has begun to grow them in captivity, attempting to harness individual groups for use in combat against enemy infantry.

OOC: Again, credit goes to SMAC.

Mindworm Breeding Program-2/10

Atmospheric Battle Mod

This is a modification introduced by the People's Navy, to be used on Mao Zedong III and IIa class ships, to enable them to provide more effective support for ground forces. Also applies to Trotsky Escort Carriers.

This mod focuses on the adjustment of shielding and exhaust, among other external characteristics, to function in the atmosphere without damaging ground-based facilities or terrain, yet retaining their utmost funcionality. This mod is to be installed on all recent/new production Mao Zedongs/Trotskys.

Mindworm Breeding Program-6/10

Mindworm Breeding Program-10/10

SIC:

Units of Force sensitive "handlers" are being trained to control these beasts.

Project Firefox-

Using an AI brain, mindworm cells, and cultured midichlorians, research is underway to create a Force-based Cloaking Device that will a) bend light and b) block out or bend various types of energy that could be used to detect cloaking devices, such as microwaves. It also will work to try and obscure the psychic readings of the personnel on a ship, and mask energy and heat readings as well.

SIC:

Project Motherbrain-

This is an attempt to try and create a more efficent and low-cost method of computing, using biologically-based microchips made of a mix of mindworm cells and neurons from humans and central "brain" processors.

Gagarin II-

TBC

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v630/Senor_Nb3/Gagarin-II.jpg

OOC: Pic credit goes to Kyanges, who let me use this pic.

IC:

Created to replace the antiquated Gagarin Ia class of shuttles, the Gagarin II is meant to be the new go-anywhere, nigh-near-indestructible, idiot-proof shuttle. It is capable of both atmospheric and terrestrial flight.

It comes in several variants.

Gagarin Slick- Standard Transport model. Used to carry up to 12 men (half that number in Kurosawa II suits) in reasonable comfort, along with gear. Can also hold up to 1,500 pounds in supplies. Comes with rapelling equipment.

Gagarin Medevac- Equipped as an ambulance, with onboard life support equipment to care for up to 6 casualties. Can also pick up paitents on gurneys using a winch, and comes with more powerful engines.

Gagarin Hog- Gunship version. Strips the seating, replaces it with dual lascannons, and sidemounted rocket pods. Also adds an onboard nasal grenade launcher and an onboard battle computer.

Gagarin VIP- Officers' and Diplomats' Model, used to ferry up to 6 important persons in comfort, with a media player, storage for foods, etc.

More stats to come later....

IC:

Shield Steel Suit G2 (Sistema de Acero Protector Modelo 2)

After some evaluations of the new suit by field officers and infantry, it was discovered that a) the suit was ugly, and b), it didn't offer quite enough protection as expected. So, a new design has been thought of, and released.

This new version adds a helmet with integrated NBC Gear and All-Vision Goggles with integrated IFF. Also, the layering of the Buckminsterfullerine materials and Leninite materials has been reordered and more layers have been placed inside the plates, which have been changed from a lamellar shape into larger interlocking plates with some provision for movement. Also, a more efficent and powerful battery has been unstalled to provide greater shield performance.

<<<(OOC: Weee. ^_^ .)>>>

Project Firefox- 2/15

Project Firefox- 6/15

Project Firefox- 12/15

Comments: Some difficulties have arisen with the power systems and the Mindworm cells, thus producting unforeseen delays. Still, it seems the project is going strong....

Enhanced Artillery Initiative-

The Red Army and People's Navy Naval Infantry are seeking to develop new artillery systems to compete in the modern world.

Komsomol III

Following up on the Veritech-derived Komsomols I and II, this proposed design is an improved model for use by the Naval Infantry that features an antimatter reactor, improved guidance systems, etc.

Daltrey II

A lighter proposed design, scaled down to 8 meters for more effective ground combat, and augmented with Shield Steel, AMS Systems, and improved electronics, including:

-JBC-3 Improved Battle Computer for better targeting and more precise IFF discernment.
-JBScan-1 MultiScanning Device with Improved IR, NVG, NeutrinoScan, and Amethyst Scanning.

Project Firefox- 15/15

Comments: The project, after much delays and mishaps with the mindworms, has been tested and certified ready for use on Navy fighters and Gagarin II Shuttles.

Ironside Phased Wave Shielding

Building upon the technology tested in the Firefox Project, the Ironside Project is an indegnious attempt to move beyond standard particle based shielding. Utilizing high frequency energy waves of various kinds pulsed at bent in a field around the ship to distrupt energy attacks and break up physical attacks, the shield system is meant to provide better protection than the current line of shields.

Light Warp Gun, Tractor Beam

An embarassing gap has emerged, as it was discovered New Dornalia lacks a basic tractor beam. This has been quickly rectified with a new design will enter service soon. (OOC: As in, by the time you read this!)

Also, a Light Warp Gun, scaled down from the Warp Cannon meant to be used on small ships and groups of fighters at close-medium ranges, is in the works. The Warp Cannon itself will be reintroduced as a medium level ship gun, though with modernizations.

SIC:

And plans are in the works for a new Duplex Power Demolisher Gun-an heir to the Super Warp Cannon in power and strength, and meant to take on uberships along with the Super Warp Cannon.

Gracie 2.0

A new build of the venerable Combat AI, this new build adds the Laws of Robotics and tightens the code a little to enhance efficency and performance, in this case, by making her performance in making decisions faster and with more guidance. Also, the new Gracie can intake more data, resulting in more reliable data searches and results, as well as better planning and ship/base matenance.

Simon Bolivar Cruiser and Bernardo O'Higgins Frigate- Scaled down version of the Zaitsev II ISD to cruiser and frigate sizes.

Storm Eagle Planetary Defense System- Based off of previously purchased G.O.D. and Narn-type defensive units, the Storm Eagle is an attempt to develop a new method of planetary defense, centered around a network of remotely guided sattelites, controlled by a central station, in a 20:1, with 100 sattelites and five stations covering each planet.

Each sattelite is armed with dual Anaconda Torpedo Guns, a central Warp Cannon, and a Demolisher Gun, plus dual Light Warp Guns for close-in combat. Power is provided by a combined solar/antimatter unit which uses collected spaceborne matter to fuel the antimatter engine, reducing the need for resupply.

"Firefox" Mass-Production Kit-

An attempt to make the Firefox Cloaking Device an easily producible part for use on many kinds of ships.

Project Philadelphia-

A project to create practical transporters for carrying people and goods, ship-to-ship and ship-to-surface.

Project WOPR-

An effort to create a practical quantum computing device, to be installed on Navy ships.

Project EVA-

Seeks to test the idea of a drone capital ship, with "Gracie" (ND's Premier Command and Control AI) running a single Mao Zedong III without human intervention, or with only a little human intervention.

Project Typhoon II-

Seeks to replace Miehmish suits self-destructed in Qinghai Incident. Particularly, seeks to both integrate similar self-destruct systems into all ND systems and make the Kurosawa competitive.

TENATIVE:

Project Long March-

With the possession of an Eclipse Star Destroyer, plans have been made to examine it and begin production of a modified half-scale version known as Long March. Long March may yield a new SD, or simply inspire tweaks to the existing Drama Casserole design.

Towerless Conversions-

Recently, in preparation for the Huntarian Civil War, an Poinlessly Large Star Destroyer package was acquired from the Corporate Sector Storefront. In a special deal made with the owners, the ships in the package were modified with the installation of New Dornalian-made weaponry and electronics.

In particular, the ships produced a powerful hybrid of Imperial design and ND tech, and the two Super Star Destroyers modified were particularly powerful, so much so they were dubbed "as powerful as Chuck Norris."

Still, the ships had their towers on them. So, a project based in the New Territories and Mars will remove the towers and move the bridges inside the ship.

Chuck Norris Star Destroyer

The results of the modification of two already modified Super Star Destroyers acquired from the Border Guards storefront produced some pretty significant ships that had signficantly higher firepower than their predecessors, and a tad more speed.

The effort persuaded New Dornalia to begin experimenting with turning this modified Star Destroyer into a full class. The results gathered from Project Long March provided the basis for the understanding of Star Destroyer design, which the KL team used in the building of the project. Due to political and economic considerations with the existing Drama Casserole class of Uberships, a limited batch of two more Chuck Norris ships will be made to join their comrades in arms, the CN-1 Chuck Norris and the CN-2 Christopher Walken-CN-3: Jamie Hyneman, and CN-4: Adam Savage. Though it carries less fighters than the Drama Casserole, it exchanges the fighters for an unbelievable amount of firepower....

Duplex Drive Demolisher Gun (D3G)-

This is an innovation on the Demolisher Gun, which is meant to provide a more powerful gun similar to the Super Warp Cannons used previously, or even (in principle) to the Yamato Cannon or the Huntarian Axial Laser. In particular, it offers twice-three times the firepower of the Super Warp Cannon, and it is projected to offer greater control over the intensity of the beam, enabling it on higher settings to presumably cut through lesser ships or stations, shielded or not....

It will begin research at Oak Ridge, TN, as well as Tokyo, and Hammer and Tongs, Luxembourgia, with final assembly presumably at either Karl Liebknecht or MacAllister Military Reservation, where they will be fitted onto the Chuck Norris and Drama Casserole ships.

Mirrors suffer from heat transfer they have a tendency to blow up just as fast as any other armor. In fact, they'd be LESS protective, since they'd be much lighter than the heavy armor usually mounted on DNs and my other bigass ships.

I said 'deploy' shields, so it'd be a varient on my physical-energy hybrid shields that can asborb laser fire and spin to destroy missiles and torpedos. The varient I was suggesting would use nano-bots in the field (or something of the sort) to produce a mirrored concave lenses in which to focus the laser fire BACK on the enemy instead of just asborbing it.

The idea isn't fleshed out well...but I was just thinking.

OOC: I dunno....I prefer my regular shield systems, frankly. I've the singularity reactors, the infrastructure, and the cost to keep them up. Besides, present battles near New Leningrad are proving my shields ain't half-bad.

Akane Anti-Air Platform (Triple A for short)

OOC: Or, as Ranma (from the manga anyway) calls it, "The Anti-Air platform that's a macho chick built like a stick that can't even kick."

Lol I thought I covered reflective shields already. My vector shielding is capable of redirecting beams so long as the shield generators are rated for the level of energy being fired.

For example, my smallest ships won't deflect an Eclipse axial laser, but should I need to, my Behemo Grand class can bend the beam. But, only a few choice vessels are equipped with that. Namely my Defense Frigate, my ADV Battlecarrier, and that's about it for now.

Mirrors will still melt. Contrary to what everyone seems to like to think, mirrors are not the end all answer to laser beams.

And about the nanobot idea, that sounds scarily similar to my long standing PPAD shielding.

OOC: Credit goes to Japanese-toy-anime.com and Google Image Search for the pic, Akira for the bike, and a few friends for the idea.

IC:

Based on a Civilian design made by the Harley-Davidson Company (yes, they still exist in ND), the Konarmiya is a design that is deceptively bulky at 6.5 feet long, 1 foot wide, and with a solid frame of Leninite Steel Alloy and 3 inches of Shield Steel Generation 2 weaved plate capable of generating a shield to protect the rider, plus run-flat tires made of synthetic rubber and layers of a proprietary weaved material called Iron Cloth, made of bundles of woven Leninite steel and woven threads of a classified polymer compound that is many times stronger than RL Kevlar or Spectra Shield that ensure greater durability than regular tires.

However, under the surface, the bike itself is a fast machine. Utilizing an advanced hydrogen fusion engine of classified size, the bike is able to go at speeds comparable to those of most "swoops" or speeder bikes and it is able to use many different types of conventional fuels and organic waste as fuel to extend range. Also, it carries supplies for several weeks, and it has a built-in systems management/navigation computer with voice, handlebar, and Force-based controls to ensure that the operator can know where he/she is going, and to efficently manage the bike's systems without having to take his/her eyes off the road for too long....

Acolyte Nembutsu Force Armor

Developed from experiments for a light armor to be worn by Acolytes in battle (one of which resutled in the armor currently used by an Acolyte contestant in the Klingtonian Kusanagi Tournament), the Nembutsu is the result of suggestions made by Acolytes who fought in the Hajarran Campaign and by those who tested copies of the Kusanagi Tourny-type armor and made suggestions as to improvements.

The Nembutsu armor uses a modified version of the the newly developed Iron Cloth material (with a greater ratio of the polymer than to the Leninite fibers) along with a modified Shield Steel Generation 2 armor vest and skirt (similar in design to samurai armor) along with elbow and shinguards to provide a type of lightweight armor that is resistant to bullets and melee attacks, blunt or edged, and to a lesser extent, energy attacks (thanks to the vest and guards), and allows for quick movement. There are provisions for a gas mask and some NBC gear (consisting of a light powered jumpsuit under the suit), but nothing to the extent of the regular military suit. Power is provided by a 14v light hydrogen fusion battery in the back, or a special Force based rechargable battery that so far, can only be used by the most powerful Acolytes. A special feature of the suit is that it is embedded with the same crystals as the litham (along with gloves), which allows for more efficent use of Force powers.

People's Scythe Singularity Torpedo

"People's Hammer was a very good system. Indeed, a rockin' system. But sometimes, that's just not good enough."

-Unknown Naval Student, People's Naval Academy, Annapolis, Earth SSR

Recent battlefield experience with the People's Hammer antimatter torpedo was good, and indeed had served the People's Navy and the People's Acolytes well as it took on enemies far and wide.

However, recent intelligence and computer tests at the People's Naval Academy simulating a possible battle with an enemy with gravity-based shielding suggest that the People's Hammer may not be enough. Also, observations by the Terran Socialist Republican Navy during the Angelic Wars noted the presence of weapons that distorted gravity and time and space.

So, analysis of present singularity technologies has resulted in the proposal of a new kind of torpedo that is more powerful than People's Hammer, and meant to take on ships using gravitationally-based shielding and supercapital ships specificially. To minimize the collateral damage a singularity would create on freindly forces, a small-medium singularity will be unleashed on impact with a ship, focusing on that ship only and eventually destabilizing after three minutes.

A successful test on a large asteroid equivalent to the size of a Drama Casserole ship in the New Monterrey system revealed that the People's Scythe was able to form an unstable singularity lasting three minutes that was about several kilometers wide, and utterly either sucked in most of the asteroid, or simply crushed whatever wouldn't fit in. The resulting collapse was equally as spectacular, as a massive flash of light occurred, though no damage to systems was detected....

"Hammerspace" Self-Defense Kit-

Utilizing a combination of the Force (People's Acolytes version) and a pattern buffer similar to that on a transporter, this is a modified heavy Army Engineers-grade sledgehammer modified for balance and maximum force that is concealed in a small unit in a covert space on the person that can be deployed at anytime for quick use against an enemy assailant. Developed by a civilian company, it is being investigated for use by the People's Acolytes and the Internal Security Bureau, especially by female agents.

Found at Nirai Kanai, this is shielding that manipulates time-space distortion fields as a way to defend a vessel against attack, and as a possible propulsion device. While much, much better than existing shields (which are pretty strong already), they are going to be infintely more expensive to produce and require a lot of power...

Project Goo-

Two Words-Practical Nanotechnology. To be used medically, and to supplement existing replicator production in industrial applications, and to possibly create self healing ships (OOCly: that heal very slowly as a play balance). Also found on Nirai Kanai.

Project Fast Mover-

Bosun Jumping technology, as found on ND's major capital vessels, has been a blessing, but also horrifically expensive and prone to "burnouts" and the occasional risk of catastrophic failure. Technology on Nirai Kanai, which seems to coordinate Bosun Jumping as a kind of master navigational computer, has been found and is being studied in Oak Ridge, TN to possibly create more efficent and practical Bosun Jumping for all.

So far, the biggest hurdles have been localizing the Mulian computer codes into New Dornalian standards-a significant feat that was almost a project unto itself.

"Anti-Fascist Defense Line" (MacIntyre Line)

Not so much a wall, as two new 3 lightyears each deep lines of mines, Storm Eagle-type defense sattelites and FTLi-equipped Narn-type defense stations upgunned with the latest ND Equipment to supplement existing FTLi-equipped platforms on the borders.

The mines (known as Squeeze Boxes) are magnetic, and also have built in tractor beams should enemy ship plate be non-ferrous. They are linked to a central command and have built-in IFF Systems to recognize friendly units. All are equipped with conventional explosives, similar to those on the El Cid class of torpedoes.

Funding for the plan has been approved in the Politburo, though the bill itself is facing stiff pressure in the Secretariat, where the more fiscally conservative Democratic Coalition is a major competitor.

In the Secretariat, where the more fiscally conservative Democratic Coalition is a major competitor, the plan has been approved, though with a 4-lightyear deep single line instead of the double three-lightyear lines originally planned. This was negotiated also in exchange for improvements to existing facilities. Meanwhile, a large budget was allocated, but no rush delivery was allowed.

Meanwhile, development of the Squeeze Box mines has been going on, with design almost finished and construction of prototypes to be rigorously tested underway.

IC:

Owing to the inflexibility of the present 100-ships to a fleet system, as demonstrated in the Nova Louisianan War, a reorganization of the Fleet has begun.

While the Navy has reorganized things, adoption of Cruiser (light and heavy) versions of the Mao Zedong (to be called Zhou Enlai and Lin Biao, respectively) and a Battlecruiser version of the Mao (called the Deng Xiaoping), inspired by experience in Aritash, has been initiated.

New Naval Organization chart

DesDiv = Destroyer Division
DesRon = Destroyer Squadron
DesFlot = Destroyer Flotilla
CruDiv = Cruiser Division
CruRon = Cruiser Squadron (could be light or heavy cruisers in most navies)

BatDiv = Battle Division (may be BB, DN, or SD)
BatRon = Battle Squadron (may be BB, DN, or SD)
CARDiv = Carrier Division
CARRon = Carrier Squadron
CruFlot = Cruiser Flotilla


Current People's Navy setup after reforms will be:

DesDiv = 3 to 4 Zaitsev II ISDs or equivalent
DesRon = 3 to 4 DesDivs (9 to 16 Zaitsevs or equivalent)
DesFlot = 2 to 3 DesRons (up to 32 Zaitsevs or equivalent, usually with an attached Zhou Enlai flagship, or equivalent)
CruFlot = 2-3 CruRons
CruDiv = 3 Lin Biao Heavy Cruisers or 4 Zhou Enlai Light Cruisers
CruRon = 4 CruDivs (12 Lin Biao or 16 Zhou Enlai)
BatCruDiv = 4 Deng Xiaoping Battlecruisers
BatCruRon = 2 BatCruDiv
BatDiv = 2 Mao Zedong Battleships, DN, or SD (or combination thereof)
BatRon = 4 BatDiv
CLACDiv = 2 Prochkhorovka II Fleet Carriers, or 4 Trotsky Escort Carriers/Relay MS Carriers
CLACRon = 4 CLACDiv

These are to convert the vessels purchased once again from the Corporate Sector storefront into ND Service. These include removing the towers from the ISDs, and replacing them with less vulnerable bridges, and upgrading them with ND-made shields, abblative armor and hyperdrive (OOC: this assumes Border Guards already upgraded my stuff with everything else I have when he confirmed purchase-if not, this will upgrade everything), and other recent additions to the ND Arsenal. And, this also adds them to the Abe Lincoln Brigades too.

Cluster Turrets

Demolisher Guns, as deployed on New Dornalian warships, have been used singly. Though powerful, lessons at Aritash and previous engagements have shown this arrangement is wasteful, and does not bring enough firepower to bear.

Thus, a new modification to the standard Demolisher Gun turret on all ND Ships will convert each turret into a triple gun battery, with improvements to turning radius, elevation, and targeting. We recognize this will take up power, but the addition of Minbari-type reactors as supplied by the Minbari Federation will hopefully make up for this. Cluster turrets are also considered for torpedo launchers.

Mariensko II

Credit goes to Coolhand at Scifi-meshes.com, who was the creator of this image. A friend of mine suggested it'd be good for me, so I decided to put it to use.

IC:

The previous project to build the Marinesko II resulted in an ugly mess that was underpar and overbudget. Thus, an unlikely company, Triumph Engineering, descended from the British Motorcycle company decided to compete with an in-house design to try and supply the government with a usable fighter.

When MacAllister MR was reportedly working on something similar, the two collaborated to make the Marinesko II prototype that is now entering service. Key to the fighter's performance is the use of integrated weapons systems that deploy only when needed, like the RL F-22, to provide a lower profile for detection and better aerodynamics. Dedicated vectoring was added to provide better stability too, among the most recent mods suggested.

Daltrey II, Kurosawa III (OOC: Images courtesy of Trooper PX and Virtual Toy Chest)-

The new components of the Mobile Infantry-Project Heinlein Concept. Utilizing New Dornalian knowledge of Artificial Muscle, Portable Singuarities and Sheilding, it will be an improvement over existing mecha such as the Kurosawa II or the Daltrey Mobile Suit (which will be phased out gradually).

http://www.trooperpx.com/SSTgame/imgSTTA5/CGsuit.jpg

The Kurosawa will continue to be a support unit, however, it will be made more nimble, and something of a Land Gunship, though it will have jump jets for short hops, as will the Daltrey II.

Role: Heavy Weapons Support
Height: 6.5m
Mass: 1 Metric Ton
Powerplant: 1x MacAllister-type Proprietary Fusion Battery (maximum operating time in combat of 2 years, noncombat is 5 years)
Shielding: TS-1 Temporal Defense Shield, AAS-1 Abblative Armor Suite
Armaments: 1x Gauss Gun (75mm Shielagh) (on left arm) (Modified Sunfury-type Plasma Gun with enhanced cooling and efficency of power) with underslung rocket launcher, 1x Gauss Gun (75mm Shielagh) on right arm with underslung automatic grenade launcher, 2x 75mm Shielagh II Gauss Guns. All weapons are Anaconda-style, meaning portable replicators are integrated into them to ensure near-infinite reloads, so long as power exists to the weapon.
Speed: Running Speed Estimated at 80Km/h, flying speed estimated 120 Km/h
Jump Jets: 10x JJ-5 Jump Jets (3 per leg, 2 on back, 2 on sides for directional control)

http://www.virtualtoychest.com/exosquad/exo_ser1_1_crop.jpg

The Daltrey II will be the main assault suit, leading the charge in any offensive operation as part of Project Heinlein. It can be modified with cloaking devices for commando work and it also boasts a y-rack with capacity for either Fuel Air Rockets, Atomic Rockets, WP/Pink (OOC: FT Napalm) Rockets, or Plasma Shard Canisters, which are wide-area-of effect energy weapons.

Role: Assault
Height: 3m
Mass: 700kg
Powerplant: 1x MacAllister-type Proprietary Fusion Battery (maximum operating time in combat of 2 years, noncombat is 5 years)
Shielding: TS-1 Temporal Defense Shield, AAS-1 Abblative Armor Suite
Armaments: 1x Piroko Plasma Gun (on left arm) (Modified Sunfury-type Plasma Gun with enhanced cooling and efficency of power) (can be switched out for a flamer), 1x Gauss Gun (65mm Minigun type) on right arm with underslung automatic grenade launcher, 2x Rocket Launchers, filled by Anaconda-equipped MacAllister Proprietary Y-Rack feeding system. All weapons are Anaconda-style, meaning portable replicators are integrated into them to ensure near-infinite reloads, so long as power exists to the weapon.
Speed: Running Speed Estimated at 100Km/h, flying speed estimated 180Km/h
Jump Jets: 10x JJ-5 Jump Jets (1 per foot, 2 per leg, 2 on back, 2 on sides for directional control, foldout wings for stability in flight)

Anti-laser Point Defense-

Using existing New Dornalian nanotech (found in self-healing applications for vessels), this is a concept with two competing systems- a canister that unleashes nanites and finely ground chaff when detonated, triggered by an energy sensor, or a simplr spray. The idea itself is meant to beat lasers (OOC: and only most types of lasers, its effectiveness can be nullified or canceled outright by other energy weapons) by using a number of fine particles to distrupt the continuity of a laser, either dampening its effectiveness or simply dissipating it entirely.

Research has begun into either of the two options. So far, the Canister idea seems to yield the most nanites, but the spray is easier to control, though its "comfort zone" (distance away from the vessel we want the shots to be intercepted) is much shorter. Perhaps there is a way to merge the two?

Earth Dragon and Steel Dragon Submunition Rounds

Made to fit in standard Anaconda launchers, Steel Dragon is essentially a modified conventional torpedo. Using a timed or remote fuse, it detonates, dispersing a number of smaller rockets which contain nanites programmed to eat armor in an uncontrolled "gray goo" reaction. If it impacts upon a target, however, the nanites are still programmed to recognize the impact and begin the appropriate attacks. The Earth Dragon, meanwhile, is similar, but turns the Anaconda launcher, in effect, into a giant shotgun firing both a number of small explosive charges or superacclerated 00 buckshot.

The EM Rifles will enter service with the People's Navy as the Dusanyu Rail Cannon series. The Dusanyus will be installed on future waves of Deng Xiaoping Battlecruisers, with onboard replicators to ensure rapid reload.

Also, all future flights of Deng Xiaopings will be equipped with the most recent upgrade suites, to ensure that all that is needed for their use is a skeleton crew....

Also, a force of 1,000 Deng Xiaopings with the above upgrades will be built, and one new Chuck Norris ISD (the Chuck Norris Infinity) will be built.
