((Yes, this is from the Macross series... I basically just took the prototype Valkyries from Macross Zero and got rid of the whole transforming into robots thing. Also some hardcore fans will note that i changed some figures to make the craft more realistic))

We wish to pre-order the VF-0E, understanding that you don't wish to sell planes right now put a 6 million deposit for the first 3 VF-0E's. We will order more- but for now this secure's that we have the first varible geomtrey fighter, it will be for air superiorty, to defend our nation from attack.

OOC: How exactly would you sweep the wings back to 122 degrees? That would mean that they're pointing to the opposite side of the plane from where they're mounted.

OOC:Not Necessarily, if 0 Degrees is forward, 180 is back, and 90 is perfectly perpendicular to the axis of symmetry of the aircraft, then 122 is perfectly manageable

OCC: actually you your correct... thats a typo let me fix that. What happens with the VF-0A/B/T is the tail structure folds in upon its self and the wings swing back to a full 90°))

Dear John,

As a sign of good faith we will deliver 3 VF-0T Trainers and 3 Bevenian advisers Upon receiving you deposit. Upon Production of the VF-0E we will charge you 50 Million for each individual VF-0E.

we would like to secure a order of 100 VF-0E which i would like to know price of the export model and for Right now we like to deposit 15 million dollars as a downpayment

Upon Production of the VF-0E we will charge you 5.085 Trillion USD for the total 100 VF-0E. As a sign of good faith we will deliver 4 VF-0T Trainers and 4 Bevenian advisers Upon receiving you deposit.

OOC:Not Necessarily, if 0 Degrees is forward, 180 is back, and 90 is perfectly perpendicular to the axis of symmetry of the aircraft, then 122 is perfectly manageable

Usually though, 0 degrees is considered having the wing leading edge perfectly straight out and perpendicular with the fuselage. In other words, the wing leading edge has 0 degrees of sweep.

BMI is Proud to announce the VF-0E. The VF-0E is virtually identical to the VF-0A but by request of the Bevenian government, has been fitted with the less powerful EGF-125 Turbofan engines.

The Kansiovian Miltary would love to get these planes, however can u give us a proxy on how much it would cost us in Maintainance for 1 of these planes?
Is the plane easy to modify as well? Kansiov wants a high speed supersonic plane.

There is a 80% rate of Modularity between all variants. If You have a VF-0D which has suffered Heavy fuselage damage and a VF-0A that has has its Cockpit shot up, You can remove the VF-0D cockpit and affix it to the VF-0A to create a VF-0B. This allows for the aircraft to be easily maintained and provide you maintenance crews with one Aircraft type that may cover Multiple roles

Thank you for the 3 training aircraft and advisors, we wish for 5 billion, to order 1,000 VF-0E's for 5 billion dollars, and if we can acquire license build rights we offer 500 million dollars, if you don't want that's fine by us.
We have wired our 5 billion dollar payment.
