C) Specialized Fighters and Other Combat Aircraft
D) Aerial Support Vehicles
E) Military Transport Aircraft
I) Services
J) Packages

Coming Soon:
-UAVs and UCAVs
-Civilian Aircraft
-Aerial Infrastructure
-Packages

Rules:
1) Do your own math. Pretty basic, ne?
2) Minimal roleplaying of your order is required. Again, relatively simple.
3) Kindly keep any and all orders sane. A little common sense when coming up with the number of units being ordered goes a long way to saving headaches for all.
4) Given that WINDS is an arms merchant and a middleman, it takes time to get orders filled. Estimates for delivery of systems will be given in NS days/months/years, with there being sixty-days in an NS month and twenty-four months in an NS year, with one NS year equaling one RL day.

History:
-3/18/06: Added Interceptor and Strike Wing packages and No-139 Stingray

Other Notes:
-Moved to new thread, as I hit the 50,000 character cap. Hadn't seen that one coming...
-Feedback is always appreciated, both on formatting and on the aircraft themselves. So is criticism, for that matter, as it helps streamline things and fix errors.
-Before anyone asks, there will be no pictures. Ever. I'm an absolutely horrible linearter and there are entirely too many vehicles to even consider doing art for them. The very best I can do is provide visual representations of what I kinda-sorta visualize of RL aircraft when I sat down and started creating stat blocks, but even then, that's not all that terribly impressive.

Praise for the Na-24A:
"[The Na-24A] more than lives up to its reputation." -- Marcus Kang, Chief of Air Operations, People's Republic of the Shattered Shield

Initially intended as a replacement for the Nu-38, the Na-24 proved to be too costly a weapons system for the one-for-one replacement the Juumanistran Air Force had originally desired and has come to complement the larger fleet of Nu-38s in Juumanistran service. The Na-24 is at the zenith of Juumanistran fighter design philosophy; it is arguably the most maneuverable fighter in the skies today and brings with it an incredibly long range stand-off capability. In addition, the Na-24 possesses one of the most sophisticated countermeasures packages in the world, insuring that, in conjunction with the pains HDL and Tachibana Aerospace have taken to reduce RCS and optical observance, the craft is both hard to detect and hard to hit.

The Wasp is the second oldest aircraft currently in service with the Juumanistran Air Force, behind only the Ni-31 Snakehead. The airframe has reached the end of its service life and is being cycled out of the Juumanistran Air Force in favor of the Ni-35. This does not, however, diminish the efficacy of this little fighter, as it packs excellent maneuverability, decent payload, and sophisticated avionics and sensors with a very light price-tag, making it ideal for customers seeking massive numbers of relatively in-expensive fighters or nations without the capital to invest in dedicated interceptors like the Nu-38 or Na-24 or two-engine multirole fighters like the Ne-41.

Beginning its life as the first joint-development project in the history of WINDS, the firm was approached by the Mekugian Air Force to design and construct a heavy strike fighter that could double as a light fighter-bomber. The net result would be the No-139 Stingray, which would enter Mekugian service but would be passed on by the Juumanistran Air Force in favor of No-27 and No-34 upgrade programs. The Stingray offers potential customers a sophisticated and stealthy strike package capable of operating well at all altitudes and delivering a fairly large payload.

Juumanistra’s mainline long-range strategic bomber delivers everything that an air force could want out of a strategic bomber. It’s fast, with massive payload capacity, truly monstrous range, and one of the most sophisticated targeting suites ever to be deployed in a strategic bomber. Whilst it does lack the stealthiness of other systems on the market, it also doesn’t carry the multi-billion dollar price tag dedicated stealth systems do, either.

A radically reworked Nu-38, the D-series carries the designation “screwball” in the Juumanistran Air Force as it is hard to peg exactly what category it fits into. The craft is usually outfitted for the twin jobs of air defense suppression and localized electronic warfare, which often work hand-in-hand. It also is usually outfitted with limited strike capability in order to facilitate the former. The craft offers a flexible platform for nations seeking a nimble, low-altitude specialized fighter.

The No-34Z is one of the few dedicated missile fighters in the world, even though it does have an anti-air cannon onboard. The craft performs two major functions: firstly, it provides localized AWACS capability in-place of or in supplement of larger, dedicated two- and four-engine AWAC aircraft. Secondly, it provides a platform for the launching of ultra long-range(>225km) air-to-air missiles, such as the AAGM.25 Thatcher or Kriegzimmer MTAAM-3 Silencer.

Catering to a relatively barren sector of the market, WINDS has brought the Juumanistran Fu-47 to the market for the first time in hopes of capturing substantive market share in the aerial warning and control sector. Providing much greater detection range than the rival E-3, with much greater data processing capabilities and endurance, the Fu-47 is one of the best aircraft of its type in the world and certainly the best currently on the open market.

The mainstay tanker of the Juumanistran Air Force, the Ku-47 utilizes the same airframe as the Fu-47, though with an entirely different engine configuration. Much like the Fu-47, WINDS hopes to achieve niche status by retailing an indigenous design that is far superior to existing off-the-shelf systems such as the KC-10 and KC-767, with greater endurance and payload capacity than both of the aforementioned aircraft.

In compliance with the Total Force Mobility Initiative, the Juumanistran Air Force sought to develop a heavy transport capable of moving massive payloads across intercontinental distances and landing on potentially substandard or unprepared runways. The end result of the development was inaugurated into service as the Ke-119 Samson. Indicative of its fulfillment of these requirements, the Ke-119 presents potential customers the capability to field deploy two main battle tanks almost anywhere in the world, given only a two kilometer strip of clear land to work with. The system’s most recent combat bona fides come from the Juumanistran intervention in the Colnese civil war, where it spearheaded to creation of the Juumanistran eastern pincer.

Haveing adaquetely tested and evaluated the Na-4A Mako, we are quite pleased and excited to order fifty further craft to replace our remaining Su-27's in our airforces. Though purchaseing from an outside company is not something we usually do, the' 27s in our service are badly in disrepair and it is indeed time for a change. Furthermore we would like to order three hundred Ni-35 Tsunami with which to fulfil our Airforces request for a Rebirth of its arsenal.

We would prefer to have them delivered in equal shipments of 70 aircraft (10 Mako's & 60 Tsunami's) to allow gradual integration into our existing airforce, and will be paid in equal installments per shipment.

We have already wired the first installment of 5,340,000,000 or 5.34 Billion and Eagerly await confirmation of our order.

Added services and the first of what will be many packages. Feedback would be especially appreciated on the package, as far as easy of comprehension and formating goes. I'm going for thoroughness, in the vein of CSJ's old aircraft packages before his storefront disappeared(at least, it doesn't up any hits on Google).

Opinions and feedback are, of course, always welcome.

[OOC: any chance we can reactivate the order above? Ive been going over my airfrace and realize even my F-33's as a front line plane we dont have much beyond that in the naval role.]

To: Ministry of Defense, The Armed Democratic Republic of Mekugi
From: Office of Kairn Satsuma, President and CEO of WINDS
Subject: Your order

In light of the shared border between the Armed Democratic Republic and the Remarkably Sane Dominion, and a personal call from President Warner, I am pleased to announce that your order of ten Na-24As and sixty Ni-35s has been picked up by the Remarkably Sane Dominion. At the moment, WINDS has commenced the procurement process and the first aircraft should be ready for delivery within four-to-six weeks.

President Warner hopes that this will strengthen Juuma-Mekugian relations through common defense systems in light of the Armed Democratic Repubic's withdrawal from the IADF. WINDS hopes that, should you ever have a problem, that we are amongst the first people that you call.

The YN-139 represents the Juumanistran government's commitment to Project Stingray. New Horizon, a consortium of the minds that designed the No-34 and Ni-34, and Tachibana Aerospace, arguably Juumanistra's best military jet engine manufactuer, are proud to have produced a fast, agile craft that is capable of excelling in both air- and ground-attack roles. Several full-sized models have been constructed and are currently being put through their flight tests at the Juumanistran Air Force's Beckham Air Base in Ricedale, Kennsington. The Juumanistran government would like to invite the Armed Democratic Republic of Mekugi and Aerone Aerospace to send observers to witness the test flight regime, given Mekugi's interest and contribution to the Stingray project.

Greetings,

We are impressed by the very wide range of selection the WINDS emporium offers, and we now know why the Empire chose you over Kriegzimmer for their AWACS design. With this respect, we would like to introduce you to a concept child of ours, the anti-tank UCAV. The tank buster, a' la Ju-87, had always been a personal favourite of the air forces of the Republics and Kingdoms which dotted what is now the Empire during the Great Civil War, and with that historical background how can you expect that we completely erase the idea from our minds? Before the beginning of the Colonial Front during the still raging War of Golden Succession we released the testing prototypes to the GF-11 Archer, which got quasi-mass produced from there on after, and is widely reknown for its ability to be radar transparent. In other words, the fabrics are meant either to deflect the light wave at a different angle of incidence, or the wave passes completely through the fabric. With that said, the idea is to take that concept and made the UAV into a UCAV, and larger. This UCAV would be outfitted with an array of ground scanning sensor units, and made to fly rather low, and would simply drop extended range search and destroy armour munitions. These would hit the thin top armour of a tank, and knock it out. And voíla, we've recreated the tank buster.

Technically, it wouldn't have to get so close to its target where it would be rather naked in the face of any surface to air weaponry, including chainguns and the like. Tactically, it would provide the close air support we're lacking at this time at Mosnoi Bor. In the end, it would be an extension to any artillery support, and would be a rather interesting, and rather unique idea.

If you are interested then please respond as soon as possible. We can discuss all tactical, strategical, and technical details through a series of letters between respective engineers from both companies, while Kriegzimmer begins to introduce some drafts on the design itself [OOC: i.e. I'm going to try to draw it, and probably fail. But try nonetheless!]. If done properly and without enough discussion, both on the technical and tactical context of the design, Kriegzimmer is sure that such a UCAV would be quite worthy of its job.

Thank you for your time; it is much appreciated,

Subject: Project Valkyrie

The idea of close-air support UCAVs has long been with the Juumanistran Air Force and they have had a flying anti-armor UCAV in the air for some years. The Do-4 Razorback has been providing CAS and anti-armor fire for Juumanistran formations for a considerable amount of time, with both the Juumanistran Air Force and Army being quite satisfied with its performance. Indeed, the only reason WINDS has yet to begin retailing it internationally is that the Juumanistran government has been obstinate in its refusal to grant an export license for it.

That said, we're very interested in developing a UCAV with Kriegzimmer, especially if it promises to be stealthy. The Do-4 is, in an of itself, little more than a flying gunmount with weapons pylons attached; emphasis was placed on low replacement cost price and firepower capability, not per unit survivability. An expansion of anti-armor UCAV away from GU-derivative guns would be most welcome and the Juumanistran government has evanced interest in such a product if one were to be developed.

To that effect, we've started marshaling the teams from HDL and Ijuin AVC that worked on the Do-4 and have asked the Juumanistran government for access to the blueprints for the Do-4. While it may have little bearing on any final product, referencing an existing system may yet prove useful, especially in terms of the development of its flight and fire control systems.

To: Eric Albright, Senior VP of Product Development
From: Project Valkyrie

That is wonderful to hear. It is rather unfortunate that the concept of tank hunting did not stick with the Imperial Army when it was porn post-2005. Indeed, close air support relied on the variants of multi-role fighters, as the Laerihans preferred logistical simplicity over aircraft with specific roles - therefore, only two types of aircraft have ever been fielded, save bombers and other necessary specifics, and those are air superiority fighters and multi-role fighters. It has only been recently that a high supersonic/hypersonic interceptor was developed, as well as the only UAV currently within service of both the Laerihans and the Kriermada - quite a shame. Although the Empire has not endorsed this project, Kriegzimmer has the deep pockets to fund it without Fedala, and we're sure that Fedor will fall to the idea once it is fully presented to him. It will be especially lucrative to him to man these after the troubles at the River Nestor against older Soviet armour, and any troubles which he might experience against the newer designs fielded by SafeHaven. With that said, Project Valkyrie is anxious to begin work with the teams from HDL and Ijuin AVC, and if we could use the Do-4 as a reference, that would be more than perfect.

After vigorous combat testing we have determined that the NA-24A Mako aircraft more than lives up to its reputation. the Shattered Shield will gladly purchase the 12 units as agreed. the first installment of 414,000,000 has been wired to your account.

There is a printed letter within, as well, on WINDS stationary:

The Do-4 is, in many ways, emblematic of Juumanistran aerospace engineering before the last decade and a half or so. Originally designed in the wake of the German Kingdoms campiagn to provide additional support for Juumanistran amphibious units when going up against armored opponents, the project morphed into one in which the Army wanted a forward deployable tank-buster UCAV. What they got was this ugly little plane, which to this day is still field-deployed with Juumanistran divisions and launched from barren patches of earth in the field.

The initial conversations with the HDL and Ijuin AVC team have so far been positive: they're fairly confident that they can improve upon the Do-4, especially given revolutions in aeronautical thought in the interim between the inaugration of the Do-4 and the present. They have, however, expressed a fair amount of concern on developing the programming for the UCAV: Given that the Do-4 uses Juumanistra's state-of-the-art JIAWOA combat architecture for targeting data and friend-or-foe identification, there will probably be serious technical hurdles to overcome developing a system outside of it.

From: Operation Valkyrie

The Do-4 looks like a very capable anti-tank UCAV, but we were looking at something somewhat different. Here is what is a very poorly drawn rendition of the UCAV, dubbed Project Valkyrie - this is a rough draft, but illustrates what we're looking for:

http://modernwarstudies.net/Lineart/valkyrie.gif

It would be no more than eight meters in length, with a fourteen meter wingspan, and range and velocity would not be its prime advantage. Instead, it would be outfitted with an electrical motor, which spins a minor turbine, and would give it enough range to operate locally for a number of hours. We estimate around three hundred kilometers range, for a full six hundred to go and come back, and around fourteen hours of life until the battery has to be recharged. The advantage would come that it would be able to operate off rudimentary airfields, that can be built within hours of operational deployment, meaning the UCAV would be able to operate off almost anything. It is to say, it would be perfect for deployment right up near the frontlines, offering very fast, very stealthy, close air support against armour - or even infantry. The rounded body that stems from the dual fins to the rear would house an assortment of submunitions, which in our own use would be basic explosively formed projectiles, that can cut through the top armour of a tank no problem. It wouldn't be too fast, moving at around four hundred to five hundred kilometers per hour, but it would fly low, at no more than three hundred meters altitude - meaning out of radar altitude, except surface search - and made out of what the GF-11 Archer was designed from - radar transparent materials. With that said, it would be a silent killer, deployed far enough where speed isn't really a factor, and neither is range, with munitions to wreak havoc on armoured designs, and with the abilities to return home after a successful mission.

We could even outfit it with mini-missiles, which would give these EFP submunitions a range of over ten kilometers, allowing the UCAV to strike from a distance, meaning the threat of ground fire would be low, although we could armour the belly nonetheless, if thought truly needed. Saying that each missile is two meters long, and around ten centimeters wide, we would be able to fit at least four on the UCAV, and if stacked, eight or twelve. If each mini-missile has, say, five submunitions, that makes for a mininum of twenty explosively formed projectiles, which is a lot of firepower - especially considering the low risk advantage.

What does your team think?

From: Hitomi Ichimanji, Team Leader, Project Swallowtail

I must confess, those who've spent any substantive time in Juumanistran aeronautical circles live in a bit of an echo chamber. Given that WINDS is the only Juumanistran firm exporting domestically designed fighters, and the Juumanistran government has been known to exceptionally tight-fisted about granting export licenses and permits, we've lived in our own little world where we more or less design exclusively for the Juumanistran military. And, while the military loves its UAVs and UCAVs, they tend to stress functionality over finesse. So you'll get aircraft like the Do-4, capable of chewing its weight in ground fire, but sticking out like a sour thumb to anyone searching electromagnetically.

At any rate, the proposed airframe does offer several key advantages over one like the Do-4. Primarily, ease of maintenance: electric motors turning props are a hell of a simpler to maintain in the field than a jet engine. Also much lighter and cheaper, making the UCAV much easier to deploy en masse. The air frame seems quite good, though we're a bit concerned about widespread use of RAMs: Not to say that they're not a good idea, because it is a good idea, just the old Juumanistran institutional bias against them in a craft that is, functionally, built to be shot down is dying hard on our end.

The ex-Army vets on my team are less than taken by your claims that the Valkyrie could provide CAS. Armor killing, most certainly, but not CAS. They swear by Do-4 and No-27, though, and are in love with any aircraft carrying a big gun. It's well worth noting, though, that they started cackling at the idea of a virtually invisible flying gatling gun and are eager to start playing with the airframe to see if it might be possible to do that.

On the other munitions, there's a general consensus that swallowtail-mounted SDAMs would indeed be the wisest armament. By minimissiles, are you referring to systems like the American Hellfire? As, if so, then we certainly are talking about a very potent weapon systems.

[*Volleyball*]

To: Hitomi Ichimanji, Team Leader, Project Swallowtail
From: Project Valkyrie

We personally believe that this UCAV would provide both function and finesse. The principal fear of ours is the growing capabilities of our foe's surface to air capabilities, whether it may be in the form of a missile, or in the form of basic rifle fire, or even a new variation of flak. With that said, the Laerihans has never fielded a tank hunter after the Great Civil War, instead relying on beyond visual range capabilities, which no doubt has not only put a bulge in our foe's armour, but in our pockets as well. In other words, it's sure a viable option for a safer mode to provide close air support, from beyond visual range, but we're sure that there are much cheaper option. This prospective UCAV is one of those viable routes; or at least, we believe as much.

It's interesting that you bring up the topic of radar absorbent materials; something we use a lot. Although it had crossed our minds, it seems that it had withered away, superimposed by much more dire issues in the design. Nevertheless, it can be used, or it may not be used - in the end, that will have to be a decision between the both of us. On the GF-11 RAM was not used, however. Instead, we used something that we slammed together and called MOPETA, Modular Perforated Transparent Armour. Here is the attachment (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=10079775&postcount=895)
to the GF-11 Archer so that you may be able to review its engineering. In a nutshell, the airframe relied on radar transparent materials, such as some polymers and thermoplastics. Because of the rather low velocities, structural integrety against high subsonic flight stress was not of concern. In our instance, velocity becomes a slight issue, but nothing too important, as we are still in the low subsonic area, if we decide to go with the 400 to 500 kph idea. Nevertheless, there are certain steps we can take to make sure that the variant of MOPETA, if used, would be capable to handle flight at the stated speeds.

In terms of munitions, the proposed Hellfire is an excellent idea and defeats our own! We had envisioned two meters; the Hellfire is a dashing 1.6 meters long, which means, in the end, that more will be able to be carried within the bowls of the UCAV.

As for your army, we're sure that they would be more than impressed if there was a prototype to test in front of them. On the note of a gatling gun. The GAU-8 Avenger produces somewhere near nine thousand pounds of thrust; that is, half of the thrust output of both engines it uses. In other words, at that rate per fire, a similar system on this UCAV would allow it to literally fly backwards. The RPM that the Avenger deals allows the gun to put as many shots in the air as possible, knowing that the majority of the rounds will miss the target due to change in wind velocities and vector, and unexpected turbulence bumping the aircraft, et cetera. With that said, would a gatling gun be the best thing to mount on this? We're sure that the Hellfires can deal enough damage, and since this would be used locally, it would be able to return, and if close enough, go on a second, or even third trip.

The gatling gun nonwithstanding, this thing would be able to deploy missile variants carrying high explosive submunitions, or even a universal missile variant carrying dual purpose munitions, like the explosively formed projectile. In other words, this would be a threat to both infantry and armour. In close air support, that is dire. It would be able to sweep over reinforcing columns of men and armour and pepper them with submunitions, effectively cutting the brunt at the battle in the front - meaning, this would be absolutely perfect for close air support. Alas, perhaps it would take a visual example to persuade your generals - and even Imperial generals, alike. But there is much to talk about before that happens!

It's well worth mentioning that my team is intimately familiar with the application of RAMs, as we've all spent some time on manned flight projects at some point or another. I was merely stating what the Air Force's design policy was: RAMs see widespread use on manned projects, where preservation of tens of millions of inguts and tens of thousands of flight hours of experience is paramount. When it comes to unmanned projects, though, their use is discouraged as UCAVs are seen as fundamentally expendable and replaceble. One muckity-muck I had a conversation with on the subject said, and I quote, "bloody things just make things more complicated."

That said, the Juumanistran government is on-board, as the civilian leadership sees the benefits, even if the Air Force is skeptical. They're also on-board because it's not going to cost them a dime as, at the moment, WINDS is underwriting the development costs, not the Warner administration.

The issue of the gun is, really, a doctrinal one and no disrespect was meant. The Juumanistran Army uses the Do-4 in such a way that they'll pull a division's squadron into a rearward base, unpack them, gas'em up, and lock them into a low altitude orbit over the combat zone. Between the short distance between its launch point and the possibility of autonomous refueling, it can loiter for hours on its own tank and, functionally, forever with in-flight fueling. With that in mind, the Juumanistran military prefers weapons systems that are capable of supporting such long-loitering flights and big aerial guns tend to run out of ammunition slower than missiles in the Juumanistran experience. The issue of there being a gun is something that the Juumanistran Army and Air Force need to figure out for themselves and, consequently, doesn't need to be touched again during the development process. Should they decide that they require one, I'm confident that my team can facilitate them at some point in the future.

Though the Air Force has evanced a desire for a system closer to the GF-11 than the Do-4. To cut a rather long story short, the Air Force chafes at having to fly the Do-4 and would like a system to call its own. So, we are certainly on-board with fleshing out a MOPETA variant to handle the stated speeds.

We're glad that the Juumanistran government is on board with the project, regardless of the conditions set foward. We assume that the project's cost will be split fairly between Kriegzimmer and WINDS, and Kriegzimmer is ready to put foward as much as is needed to complete the design. It is unfortunate that the army and the air force still hold their doubts, but perhaps trials with the prototype, and later, combat testing, will persuade them different. On the contrary, Kriegzimmer has been sold and as has ordered adjudicate the design, in full cooperation with any WINDS project teams. There is a fundimental difference between the Juumanistran armed forces and their Macabee counterparts, at least within the context of UCAVs, and UAVs in general. Or so it seems, anyways. This is, to us the UAV is just as integral to an operation as a manned flight; in other words, the 'life' of our UAV is just as precious as the life of our Lu-45. Human within the aircraft nonwithstanding, we believe a loss is a loss, and telling that a UCAV is no where near cheap, the Laerihans, nor the Ejermacht, or the Kriermada, see it as expendable. On that note, we're not trying to argue the strategic value of the UCAV, just our viewpoint, so we apologize if we come off on the wrong foot, and seem to attempt to imply our 'point' on your very respectable corporation, and nation. That is not our goal. With that said, we're sure that any UCAV designed will be able to operate within the judgement of both armed forces without problems.

In the end, RAM doesn't need to see service on the project. The airframe of the design should be stealthy enough to produce an enviroment of radar transparent, and so therefore, RAM should be rather extraneous and superfluous. So, we will leave the ultimate decision to employ RAM to you, and in the end, if the Laerihans really requires the design to employ RAM, either Kriegzimmer can simply add it to their own export design, or the Laerihans can do it itself - God knows how many independent projects the Fuermak has gone and done on its own; they can very well provide their own coatings.

With the gun, we understand your point of view, and it is certainly a very good position. The conclusion to any argument between to employ, or not to employ, the gun would be that the two armed forces are just too different minded in certain aspects as to agree on the issue. So, much like the RAM, the two countries would simply employ different variations of the same design. A simple solution to what otherwise would be a hairpulling argument. In light of this, Project Valkyrie sees the purpose of our sessions as an attempt to hammer out the key, general, details of the project, and such small decisions such as the gun, or the purpose of the UCAV, should be left to our independent arms to complete for their respective militaries - since ultimately, they are the people we will have to please. And, finally, you are absolutely correct, the gun would most likely be expended slower than the missile, and that is where the rift in tactical doctrine between the two armies can be seen. Your armed forces prefers a design that can, by your own definition in your letter, loiter on the battlefield. Our Fuermak has fallen in love with the idea with a squadron of UCAVs coming in silently, expending their missiles in mere seconds, and then leaving just as suddenly as they had come. But, as said before, the different shouldn't be a problem in the overall design process.

On terms of dimensions, what ideas do you hold? We feel that the original expectation of eight meters length might be a bit too short. What is your team's position?

Upon consultation with my team, the consensus seems to be that eight meters is just a smidge on the short side, as well. The consensus on this end is upping it up by a half-a-meter or so.

To: Hitomi Ichimanji, Team Leader, Project Swallowtail
From: Project Valkyrie

We agree with you, and so eight and a half meters it shall be! Now, with that so far settled, we have our idea of the munitions, which we have named, for our purposes, Icycle. We'll give you a diagram of the munition:


http://modernwarstudies.net/Lineart/icyclefin.gif


So, the idea works as a shorter, less wide, version of the Hellfire, that packs equal or more firepower. The prototype is 147.32 cm long, and 11.43 cm wide, being slightly more compact than the American comparison. The rear compartment, or the solid fuel rocket engine would be forty centimeters long, with the electronics compartment, or the nose of the missile, being twenty-four cm long. The inner body holds the submunitions and holds ten in a single row, holding four rows spherically, meaning it holds a total of forty submunitions. Each submunition, using a self-forging warhead, can penetrate 177mm of armour; of course, aiming for the top of the tank. Now, use forty and you're guaranteed not just one kill per missile, but at least two. Meaning, while the missile may cost us one hundred thousand to produce, we destroy at the mininum around twelve million dollars worth of armour. Cost effective to me. We would be able to fit, say, three rows, one on top of the other, of four, or a total of twelve missiles, meaning each UCAV would have the power to stop at the very least twelve tanks, which is massive ability - especially since it's almost guaranteed to return home.

What does WINDS think?

To: Project Valkyrie
From: Hitomi Ichimanji, Team Leader, Project Swallowtail

I do believe that the technical is wow. You've certainly raised a few ears with the Icycle design. And opened up a few wallets. The Army's already making rumblings about phasing out its entire inventory in favor of Icycles. Needless to say, we're also quite impressed with the Icycle.

Which, I think, brings us to the real trick of U(C)AV development: Making the thing think. As far as the computing hardware goes, what sort of system is Kriegzimmer interested in? Seperate computers each dedicated to a specific task or something else? Should the unit be capable of autonomous action and, if so, to what degree?

In terms of the first point, the Juumanistran Army and Air Force have found server baskets tend to work better than individual CPUs dedicated to particular subsystems, in that they provide faster processing and greater redundancy when trouble arises. Juumanistra tends to use units that are capable of a wide range of autonomous actions, and the Warner administration has agreed to pony up the ][30 billion LANTURN advanced mission prioritizing and threat identifying architecture to the U(C)AV project, should Kriegzimmer be interested in it.

Alternately, should you be interested in developing a seperate system for the project, we're on-board for that, as well.

Large contract being offered. If you are intrested visit this link.

In terms of autonomy, the GF-11 only offers semi-autonomy. To be frank, the Fuermak has never been very keen on full-autonomy, despite it's willingness to look into un-conservative technologies. That said, the Archer is commanded from a central command behind the lines, using satellite and electromagnetic waves to give commands. There would probably be the need for some sort of combined arms, with sensor ridden UAVs picking out targets and the UCAVs firing; we could also include sensors for the UCAV, including a down and foward looking photonic camera, down-looking radar and infra-red sensors, et cetera. This way it would catch a moving tank, or tanks, transmit the information back to central command within an instant, and central command orders the strike; much like a piloted aircraft, but this time the pilot is sitting to his comfort hundreds of kilometers away. Up to now, we haven't improvised something better.

As for the computers, Kriegzimmer agrees and ops to leave that to WINDS since it seems to have the experience, and just plain knows what it's talking about. In that respect, we're very interested in the LATURN project.

Apart from that, we're glad WINDS liked the Icycle; it seems as if we have our primary munition!

The United Socialist States of Macaronia and Raviolia wish to place an order with your esteemed company, having been assured of the high-quality of your products which we would seek to add to our military power.

We wish to purchase four of your Ke-119 Samson military transport aircraft to plug the recently developing gap in our instant-deployment forces. To this end, we also wish to enter into contracts with you both to train six pilots and eight technicians in the use and maintenance of these planes; to insure them for a period of five years; and to enter into a parts and maintenance contract, also for a period of five years.

We have made the following calculations, which we believe to be correct. Should this be the case, and should you be in a position to provide the goods and services we require, the money will be wired to you within two weeks.


Unit Costs
$182,000,000 each - 1x Ke-119 Samson
$728,000,000 - 4x Ke-119 Samson

Parts and Maintenance
$43,680,000 - 6% for all four
$65,520,000 - 9% for all four
$109,200,000 - for both, per year
For five years:
$546,000,000

Training Package, Ultimate
$66,000,000 - for 6 pilots

Insurance
$36,400,000 - for unit replacement (per year)
For five years:
$182,000,000


Flight Technician - Veteran
for 8 trainees ($1,440,000 + $3,000,000)
$4,440,000

So..


$728,000,000 - total cost of aircraft
+
$546,000,000 - parts and maintenance (five year contract)
+
$66,000,000 - ultimate training package (for six pilots)
+
$182,000,000 - insurance (unit replacement cover for five years)
+
$4,440,000 - for Veteran Flight Technician (to train 8 trainee technicians)

= $1,526,440,000

OOC - I'm considering holding a "fly-off" with the planes I bought so long ago, along with a few designs from DMI and a few unique designs of my own - see my "Defence Ministry" page (specifically the composite wings) for details. Thoughts on which planes would win the "fly-off" would be appreciated...

Despite the fact Kriegzimmer makes aircraft with such wonderful ranges with tanker support, the Laerihans lacks a dedicated tanker aircraft. Because Kriegzimmer is currently preoccupied with a flurry of other projects, including what would be one of the fastest battlecruisers to sail the seven seas, there's no prospect of a tanker aircraft in the near or accepted future. Therefore, the next best option is going to the catalogue of an allied nation, and the most aircraft dedicated catalogue under such prerequisites would be the Juumanistran WINDS, and from this said catalogue our eyes have caught the Ku-47 Milkman. That said, we would be extremely interested in an express order of fifty Ku-47s - and by express we mean as quickly as possible. Military operations to be conducted in the future may not have the luxury of having adversaries that are already implanted within our borders; in other words, we fear long range operations, especially for the lighter fighters the Laerihans fields, and dedicated aircraft would be needed as soon as possible. Besides that, we are issuing an order for another one hundred Ku-47s, coming to a total of 150 aircraft for what would be exactly 54.150 billion United States Dollars. We are ready to the first fifty aircraft upfront, with the payment for the secondary batch of one hundred Ku-47 Milkmans to be transferred electronically from reserve to reserve by the time the order has begun manufacturing. Thank you for your time.

Subject Re: Ku-47 order

Upon receiving your order, and seeing its urgency, WINDS contacted the Juumanistran government in the hopes of expediting the procurement process by transferring existing systems to the Second Empire and then, subsequently, having WINDS contract out the building of replacement units. The President and Air Force agree that, given the long history of Juuman-Macabean defense ties, that such an arrangement would be acceptable. So, the government has authorized the immediate transfer of 150 early run Ku-47 Milkmen, with performance equal to or in excess of the catalog export model, to the Second Empire from the Ghost Force, Juumanistra's massive material reserve component. We are currently converting them from the I-series OS, which the Department of Defense refuses to export under any circumstance, to the export-friendly U-series OS, a process that should, given our current rate of conversion, take another two to three weeks. Upon completion, each finished unit will be turned over to the Second Empire; we hope that this time-table is sufficient for your upcoming offensive operations.

While WINDS appreicates Lockheed's interest, we must remind you that we are, above all else, an arms merchant. Not an arms manufacturer.

At the very best, we act as intermediaries between international customers and the Juumanistran defense community, bringing the two together, as we did on the No-139 Stingray. While we are interested in getting into the civil aviation export market, it shall be done only once we finish our current negotiations with Juumanistra's leading civil aviation manufacturers. We are, however, more than willing to put you into contact with the types of firms you'd like to talk to about joint R&D, should you still be interested.

We are looking for an aircraft that is capable of providing C3 (Command, Control, Clearance) to aircraft engaged in battle above enemy territory. To be quite frank, we're talking about an aerial Air Traffic Control Engagement Center. It must be equipped to sustain radar sight picture for up to four hundred aircraft both friend and foe, of course, maintained by several controllers at multiple radar scopes. The controllers must be able to communicate with all friendly aircraft, delivering clearances to enter specific zones, engage enemy targets, and designate altitude and protection clearances. Aside from radar, a small portion of the aircraft must be configured for visual sight of the below area. This aircraft must be able to attain an altitude of at least 65K-70K feet AGL and be capable of unending flight due to A2A refueling.

If you believe you may be of use in developing this aircraft, please let us know.

On the issues of an airborne traffic hub, Juumanistra simply uses a dedicated Fu-47 for the job, as the aircraft is designed as an AEW3C [Airborne Early Warning, Command, Control, and Communications] system. The Fu-47's performance envelope is well within what you want and minor changes in the default software suites can provide for the air traffic control role, as all the requisite infrastructure and personnel are there. However, while WINDS feels this stellar aircraft is perfect for what the Armed Forces of Sniper Country are interested in, we are still more than willing to contact the Nijino Aeroworks and a few other firms that specialize in large aircraft with sophisticated electronics suites should Sniper Country seek an aircraft designed from the ground up for this task.

While the FU-47 is quite nearly what we are searching for, we feel it does not adequately meet the needs we require. For one, we require that the aircraft we seek attain and maintain a minimum service ceiling of 60,000ft MSL. The reason for this is that the aircraft would be controlling aircraft in and over a warzone, and with aircraft engaged anywhere from 5,000 to 45,000 feet MSL, we wish to keep the aircraft as safe as possible. Also, of course, the belly of the plane itself must be fitted with aforementioned ATC suites and centers.
