ArmsTech

Established in 2000, ArmsTech strives to design and market products made by its own staff or other enterprises. A private company originally (under a different name), it was given authorisation to work on military projects for the Aslanic Army. Hugely profitable because of it, staff were hired and premises upgraded into the now huge company of ArmsTech.

It began to sell overseas to other governments three years after its formation, and is expected to be floating itself on the world stockmarket soon. For now though, ArmsTech is pleased to announce the opening of its digital storefront.

OOC: Might I be the first to congratulate you on a well set out Storefront.

Might I suggest adding several different countries of origin aswell to your aresenal. Sadly I do not need to purchase anything at this time.

Also, Id like to say that designs for custom things should begin to be put up within the week.

My Universal Exports 'Black Market Storefront', lists the country of origin for most of my weapons. It is to help people with a "INSERT COUNTRY HERE" weapon's fetish.

Like Kahanistan has a Middle Eastern Storefront.

Example:

AK-74 (USSR): $0.000005 LNR

Also the MK19 40mm, call it an Automatic Grenade Launcher, it'll sell better that way.

OOC. Ignore if you want, but...

5) F-35 CTOL $28Million, STOVL for $35Million, CV for $38Million (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/f-35.htm)
That is almost free. How do you manage to get them so dirt cheap?

1) B-52 for $30Million (http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/usa/bomber/b-52.htm)
I assume it's old stock.

10) C-141 for $9Million (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/c-141.htm)
If you use FY1992 dollars, remember to add 4% per year. That's +73% for FY1992 prices.


2) KC-13 for $37Million (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/kc-130.htm)
Again, inflation... Newer ones are 66 mils (these will be 50 or so).



1) FIM-92A Stinger for $6Million (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/stinger.htm)
A bit too much. Modern export cost is somewhat short of 200 thousands, though in a full package it's up to 500.


Total Price: $17.7 Million
Package Price: $14 Million
Large discounts are unrealistic in weapon trade. This isn't 99-cent shop.

Pretty much all.

Well, he focuses on US equipment, and it's fine.

Well, not all rise at the same rate. A few of things which prices should be lowered, due to tech advance and return of scale:
M1A2 Abrams - more around 6 million. From APCs, about 25% down; however, M-60 would stay at 1.3, since it's technologically hard to make.
F-14, F-15 - about 20% lower. However, F-35 STOVL variant is more expensive due to that fan.
B-2 - most of the cost was in R&D, so today it would be still about 2.2; F-117 150; however, of course, selling B-2 or F-117 involves technology, so somewhat over.
Stinger - looks like that's includes replacement missiles.
