OOC: Now completely finished. Please, only IC comments.

The WMD-2 "Godsend" Kinetic Strike satellite is currently the most advanced system in the Falkasian arsenal. It is capable of hitting any target around the world at any given time with the percision of a cruise missile and the reaction speed of a manned nuclear missile silo.

The satellite at any given time can be stocked with up to 12 "Godsend" Kinetic Strike munitions, each of which is independent from the other 11. When a target is located anywhere around the globe, a signal is sent to the satellite, which in turn re-aligns itself towards the intended objective. Once the order to fire has been given, the satellite discharges a single "Godsend" munition towards the target. From there, the munition uses Earth's gravity to super-acelerate it as it re-enters the atmosphere. During the re-entry process, an exterior coating on the shell absorbs the immense heat generated and falls away once the munition clears the upper atmosphere. By this time, the round should be fully exposed and dead on target. However, slight adjustments can be made by the satellite's guidence computer (AWOCS) to alter the course of the round should it be needed. After this point, all that remains is to wait for confirmation of target destruction from the satellite.

Notices:
1. Nations are limited to 5 WMD-2 Satellites per order.

2. Due to the complexity of the WMD-2 Satellite's construction, we will only be able to deliver 1 satellite per nation per month.

3. Special discounts of 20% will be given to the allies of Falkasia.

4. The WMD-2 Satellite is available to all nations who have the capacity to purchase it. You will never be turned away on the account of size, population, political allegiance, or political agenda.
