Official Communiqué
The Foreign Ministry
The armed forces of the Commonwealth have recently undergone a massive restructuring program. In a bid to keep pace with the rapid advancement of military technology, Prime Minister Sean Parson had ordered the Defense Ministry to conduct an internal review of the machinery and equipment currently in use by the various branches. The major findings of the Inspector General are summarized below:
1. The vast majority of equipment is still in good working order.
2. Maintenance costs are extremely high, due in large part to the great amount of reserve equipment that continues to cost the government billions every fiscal year to keep functional.
3. Much equipment had been made unnecessary by the acquisition of more modern provisions, most of which could perform the same roles with greater efficiency.
4. Logistics are overextended and unduly complicated due to varied needs in ammunition and replacement parts.
One of the recommendations of the report is to reduce the number of excess equipment by selling those judged to still have resale value. Thus, the Commonwealth has made available a wide range of vehicles, aircraft, and naval vessels for purchase at large discounts by the international community. An inventory is attached to this transmission, with available specifications of each item listed below. The sale will continue until all of the equipment has been sold.

HT-1 Conqueror Heavy Tank
Armaments:
155mm ETC Cannon [50]
M60 Coaxial Machine Gun [2,000]
30mm Chain Gun [1,200]
2 Pentuple Mini-Missile Launchers [60]
4 External Mini-Missile Launchers [24]
22 Claymore Mines
Infared Laser Jammer
Crew: 3 (Driver, Gunner, and Commander)
Speed: 35 Mph Off-Road, 62 Mph On-Road
Range: 225 Miles
Power Source: 16 Rotary Cylinder Methanol Turbine
Height: 11.5 Feet
Width: 15.33 Feet
Length: 45.57 Feet
Weight: 102 tons fully loaded
Cost: 10 Million
Design NOTES: This tank is all about shock armies. The turretless design, smaller gun, and overall lighter armament would make this tank roughly 65 tons. However, this tanks has put on almost fourty extra tons, and it's all armour. The standard tank armour of the Imperium (which is 50% more effective than Dorchester) is laminated and then combined with DU and honeycombed super-ceramics. The turretless design helps against ATGM attacks because there is no weak point to exploit and the armour is continuous through out the body. Unfortunately, mobility is hampered, so it is advisable to use strong combined-arms doctrine is your plan to use this tank in any offensive role.
ST-1 Firefly Infantry Support Tank
Armaments:
120mm Soft Recoil ETC Cannon [30]
M60 Coaxial Machine Gun [2,000]
Automatic Grenade Launcher [200]
4 Mini-Missile Launchers [24]
16 Claymore Mines
Infared Laser Jammer
Crew: 3 (Driver, and Commander)
Speed: 60 Mph Off-Road, 65 Mph On-Road
Range: 500 Miles
Power Source: 12 Rotary Cylinder Methanol Turbine
Height: 9.5 Feet
Width: 10.5 Feet
Length: 32.2 Feet w/ barrel, 26 w/o barrel
Weight: 32 tons fully loaded
Cost: 7 Million
Design NOTES: This tank is standard equipment for the Imperial Marines, mainly because it is more suitable for amphibious landing. The coaxial M60 is not the American SAW but the Imperial SAW which is produced by Phoenix Defense Industries and is a first line of defense against infantry. The Automatic Grenade Launcher is meant to engage enemy mechanized infantry with devastating effectiveness. The Mini-Missile launchers serve the same purpose as the externally mounted ones on the HT-1. As a last ditch defense against infantry, five claymore mines are mounted on each side of the hull and three on the front and back.
MT-7 Jackson Main Battle Tank
Armaments:
150mm ETC Cannon [50]
2 10mm Chain Gun [6,000]
2 Side-Mounted Korento ATGM Launchers [8]
2 Turret-Mounted Mini-Missile Launchers [16]
Crew: 3 (Driver, Gunner, and Commander)
Speed: 75 Mph Off-Road, 93 Mph On-Road
Range: 350 Miles
Power Source: 16 Rotary Cylinder Methanol Turbine
Height: 12.5 Feet
Width: 13.5 Feet
Length: 38 Feet
Weight: 78 tons fully loaded
Cost: 8 Million
Design NOTES: While this tank is about thirty tons lighter than the Conqueror, it is arguably more effective at the anti-tank role. The 150mm ETC Cannon gives the Jackson incredible punch and the ATGM launchers on the side of the tank only add to the effectiveness of the tank against other tanks. The mini-missile launchers provide an effective multi-role weapon and the 10mm chainguns give the Jackson excellent anti-infantry capabilities. This is the standard tank of the Imperial Army.
IV-8 Maverick Infantry Fighting Vehicle
Armaments:
80mm ETC Cannon [40]
10mm Chain Gun [6,000]
Turret-Mounted Mini-Missile Launchers [16]
Crew: 3 (Driver, Gunner, and Commander) plus 10 Soldiers
Speed: 78 Mph Off-Road, 96 Mph On-Road
Range: 350 Miles
Power Source: 12 Rotary Cylinder Methanol Turbine
Height: 8.25 Feet
Width: 12.5 Feet
Length: 24.5 Feet
Weight: 28 tons fully loaded
Cost: 2 Million
Design NOTES: This IFV is thought of by many in the Imperial Army and Marines as a small tank that just happens to carry soldiers to the battlefield. It's an understandable thought when the armament isn't a 30mm Chain Gun like in most IFVs but an 80mm ETC Cannon. A 10mm Chain Gun and turret-mounted mini-missile launcher give the IFV its role-signature anti-infantry weapons.

HT-1 Conqueror Heavy Tank
Armaments:
155mm ETC Cannon [50]
M60 Coaxial Machine Gun [2,000]
30mm Chain Gun [1,200]
2 Pentuple Mini-Missile Launchers [60]
4 External Mini-Missile Launchers [24]
22 Claymore Mines
Infared Laser Jammer
Crew: 3 (Driver, Gunner, and Commander)
Speed: 35 Mph Off-Road, 62 Mph On-Road
Range: 225 Miles
Power Source: 16 Rotary Cylinder Methanol Turbine
Height: 11.5 Feet
Width: 15.33 Feet
Length: 45.57 Feet
Weight: 102 tons fully loaded
Cost: 10 Million
Design NOTES: This tank is all about shock armies. The turretless design, smaller gun, and overall lighter armament would make this tank roughly 65 tons. However, this tanks has put on almost fourty extra tons, and it's all armour. The standard tank armour of the Imperium (which is 50% more effective than Dorchester) is laminated and then combined with DU and honeycombed super-ceramics. The turretless design helps against ATGM attacks because there is no weak point to exploit and the armour is continuous through out the body. Unfortunately, mobility is hampered, so it is advisable to use strong combined-arms doctrine is your plan to use this tank in any offensive role.
ST-1 Firefly Infantry Support Tank
Armaments:
120mm Soft Recoil ETC Cannon [30]
M60 Coaxial Machine Gun [2,000]
Automatic Grenade Launcher [200]
4 Mini-Missile Launchers [24]
16 Claymore Mines
Infared Laser Jammer
Crew: 3 (Driver, and Commander)
Speed: 60 Mph Off-Road, 65 Mph On-Road
Range: 500 Miles
Power Source: 12 Rotary Cylinder Methanol Turbine
Height: 9.5 Feet
Width: 10.5 Feet
Length: 32.2 Feet w/ barrel, 26 w/o barrel
Weight: 32 tons fully loaded
Cost: 7 Million
Design NOTES: This tank is standard equipment for the Imperial Marines, mainly because it is more suitable for amphibious landing. The coaxial M60 is not the American SAW but the Imperial SAW which is produced by Phoenix Defense Industries and is a first line of defense against infantry. The Automatic Grenade Launcher is meant to engage enemy mechanized infantry with devastating effectiveness. The Mini-Missile launchers serve the same purpose as the externally mounted ones on the HT-1. As a last ditch defense against infantry, five claymore mines are mounted on each side of the hull and three on the front and back.
MT-7 Jackson Main Battle Tank
Armaments:
150mm ETC Cannon [50]
2 10mm Chain Gun [6,000]
2 Side-Mounted Korento ATGM Launchers [8]
2 Turret-Mounted Mini-Missile Launchers [16]
Crew: 3 (Driver, Gunner, and Commander)
Speed: 75 Mph Off-Road, 93 Mph On-Road
Range: 350 Miles
Power Source: 16 Rotary Cylinder Methanol Turbine
Height: 12.5 Feet
Width: 13.5 Feet
Length: 38 Feet
Weight: 78 tons fully loaded
Cost: 8 Million
Design NOTES: While this tank is about thirty tons lighter than the Conqueror, it is arguably more effective at the anti-tank role. The 150mm ETC Cannon gives the Jackson incredible punch and the ATGM launchers on the side of the tank only add to the effectiveness of the tank against other tanks. The mini-missile launchers provide an effective multi-role weapon and the 10mm chainguns give the Jackson excellent anti-infantry capabilities. This is the standard tank of the Imperial Army.
IV-8 Maverick Infantry Fighting Vehicle
Armaments:
80mm ETC Cannon [40]
10mm Chain Gun [6,000]
Turret-Mounted Mini-Missile Launchers [16]
Crew: 3 (Driver, Gunner, and Commander) plus 10 Soldiers
Speed: 78 Mph Off-Road, 96 Mph On-Road
Range: 350 Miles
Power Source: 12 Rotary Cylinder Methanol Turbine
Height: 8.25 Feet
Width: 12.5 Feet
Length: 24.5 Feet
Weight: 28 tons fully loaded
Cost: 2 Million
Design NOTES: This IFV is thought of by many in the Imperial Army and Marines as a small tank that just happens to carry soldiers to the battlefield. It's an understandable thought when the armament isn't a 30mm Chain Gun like in most IFVs but an 80mm ETC Cannon. A 10mm Chain Gun and turret-mounted mini-missile launcher give the IFV its role-signature anti-infantry weapons.
(OOC: I’m cleaning out my military and selling everything I don’t need. No I did not make the stats and numbers up, I actually did once buy all of this stuff from various storefronts.)
