The Veragon Ministry of Defence would like to put forth a proposal to all international defence contractors for a small set of AWACS aircraft (four and two trainers with an option for four more) along with two tanker aircraft, preferably C-130 variants.

Also, we are considering the possibility of investing in a limited strategic lift capability, something in the region of a C-17. If you have a good proposal, we may consider it.

OPEN TECH

Thanks, but we aren't able to produce these and need to buy them off of someone. If you're selling them, we'll take the two at $37,000,000 times two for a total of $72,000,000

Introducing the C-14 Burro, desigend to replace our aging fleet of C-130s, it shares almost all the features of the verable hercules, but is improved in several areas. latest Counter-Measures have been installed.
There is a tanker variant available for the same price.

We actually used to run a storefront selling all US military RL tech but we closed 2 years ago, lucky for you we can still fill this custom order for you. Order confirmed.

Our apologies Tyrador, but we have received a better deal from Phoenix Militia. Phoenix, we will take four KC-14s with an additional request for 20 more to be delivered over the next two years with payment wired upon each shipment. We would also like six E-1s and a pair of EC-14s to fulfill our present operational requirements. $298,000,000 will be wired with the payment of the rest of the KC-14s to be wired as they are delivered.

We have four EMB-145 AEW&C aircraft that are being replaced by our new AWACS aircraft, a modified version of the Airbus A321. We are willing to sell our EMBs for $20 million each. We are also getting rid of our KC-135s, if you're interested we have thirty of them awaiting to be replaced and are willing to sell them for $15 million each.
