Very well. Until further notice, all tariffs on luxury automobiles and alcohols exported from Aunesia to Ghost Tigers Rise will be lifted. I expect you shall do the same for coal and natural gas exported from Ghost Tigers Rise.

Greetings from the Vault-Tec Corporation. External Relations Manager Linda Baker online. I was instructed to organize the embassy, and will try to fill out the form to my best.


The nation is usually referred to as the Vault, or Vault 10. Government is unheard of. Our representative Melissa Nicholson will contact the companies as needed.
We'll open the embassy with Melissa, two secretaries, five IT technicians, and two maintenance workers. Considering your crime situation, six Standard Security Corporation guards will be stationed, carrying the duty two at a time, hired in your nation if possible. If you have no objections, they will be first equipped with H&K G11, and soon rearmed with R1 rifles (http://z13.invisionfree.com/The_NS_Draftroom/index.php?showtopic=3400&view=findpost&p=1156532). If you object spec ops-grade equipment, they will use G11 or just Colt AR15 rifles.
As customary among our citizens, they would prefer to retain personal pistols.

Our nation doesn't use cars, due to the terrain, and two Gecko Command version helicopters will be used. They are normally armed, but only with self-defense systems, unlike attack versions, and the armament may be removed if needed. We would like, if allowed, to have additionally two purely civilian helicopters, but restricting the ground vehicles complement to two cars, locally purchased.

Neither Vault 10, not Vault-Tec corporation are at wars. We are a member of the GSMDP, but not full binding alliances. The Aerospace Logistics Corporation Profiteering Department is currently exploiting third world countries' natural and human resources, but conflicts with other exploiters are limited to local fights using local mercenaries hired through offshore companies.
Note: Vault-Tec is not affiliated with Aerospace Logistics Corporation.


The Symmetriad has proposed to develop trade with your country. The Symmetriad requires large amounts of natural or enriched Uranium for our power and weapon industry, and can offer assistance in Systems Engineering and Nuclear Industry.
Out of less major exports, but ones explicitly required, many of our companies can offer our exclusive, unique beverages, including but not limited to the famous Roentgen Rum and Gamma Gulp Beer. Both are today mostly sold in non-radioactive versions, presenting no more harm than plain counterparts and retaining only the products of radiation treatment which give special flavors.

Looking ahead to establishing long-term relations,
Vault-Tec.

Personnel amount and equipment are acceptable. Ground vehicles are acceptable. I, personally, would like recommend either the domestically-made Town Car, a luxury sedan, or Crown Victoria, a less expensive sedan, with very high specs.
However, the limit on helicopters is two, completely unarmed. We are sorry for this inconvenience, but it's a rule.

The embassy is being prepared, and Ms. Nicholson and your personnel will be welcome as soon as this is fixed.

Signed,
James Taggart
Commissar of Foreign Affairs

We are prepared to ship you large quantities of Uranium, at competitive prices. However, alcohol is not a strong incentive for this powerful resource, and our Systems Engineering and Nuclear Industries are already well-developed. Perhaps you have something else to offer?

Signed,
Commissar of Trade and Commerce
George Bailin

[ V10 ERD ]

We accept the requirements - our embassy is not a military base. The personnel will decide on vehicles they need on spot.

The economy of Vault 10 doesn't involve large-scale export of natural resources, but Aerospace Logistics has an offer for you.

Respectfully,
Linda Baker,
on behalf of Vault-Tec External Relations Department.


AEROSPACE LOGISTICS CORPORATION
Vault 10 and British Londinium registered
No Liability Company

We all share a common goal, so, let's get right to the point.
Aerospace Logistics can offer you what every country needs in the modern world: defense. Vault 10 is a number of countries which have survived a large nuclear war, and priority one after profit is protection. Aerospace Logistics Corporation manufactures an array of space launch vehicles, military and dual-purpose satellites, air defense systems, transport and combat aircraft. Security is what can never be excessive.

Defense is not all. Every developed country needs efficient, powerful and reliable air transport system. Due to the extremely large scale of manufacture, as all of the Vault 10 is predominantly serviced by air transport, our prices are among the lowest, but quality is kept high. Among our transport aircraft, there are models using liquefied natural gas, which appears to be common in your country, and use of LNG already cuts cost for us. We are sure you will find a lot of profit opportunities in working with Aerospace Logistics - our lines compete with land and sea transport, not just other aircraft operators.

Furthermore, if your defense requirements go further than a single nation can provide, we are one of the founder companies of the international Global Strategic Missile Defence Project (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=499319&page=2). If our business relations go further, your nation may receive cover either of our assets, or through mutual defense agreements.


Looking forward to doing business with you,
Neil R.,
Aerospace Logistics Corporation, Expansion Department.
