Corporate history
SDS was created by a series of mergers, acquisitions and divestitures within the Etoile Arcture arms manufacturing industry. The corporation is a joint stock company owned equally (20 per cent stake) by each of its five wholly-owned subsidaries, which include Marine & Heavy Tool Works, Sequoia Weaponworks, Sequoia Aerospace Systems, Sequoia Automotive Systems and Sequoia Electrodynamics. SDS also owns equity stakes in Hybalt Defence Industries of the Commonwealth of Granzi and in Aerodyne Inc, a leading aerospace manufacturer with whom SDS also has a strategic partnership. In December 2007 the Allis-Chalmers Corporation of the Republic of Coorsota agreed to form a joint venture with SDS, known as Sequoia-Allis Defence Services, to develop and market the M8 Lariat main battle tank to foreign governments.

Announcement
LATEST: Storefront launched and accepting orders.
I am willing to trade you designs for the AL-52 Dragon, in exchange for enough weapons to equip a 100,000 men armoured brigade, with high standard equiptment. That means assault weapons, body armour, and tactical weapons, as well as APCs, MBT, LBT, Attack Heliccopters, and transport. I already have all the electronics, but estimate that this will cost ~$50 000 000. as the AL-52 dragon cost in excess of 3.5 billion dollars, I think this is a fair deal.
Aditionally, we would like to offer a merger between our naval production facilities, as we are the premier submarine and stealthed ship producer in our area of the world, with over 100 billion dollars in exports annually.
thank you,

Response to contract solicitation from the Department of Militia
I regret to inform to inform your government that at this time our company must reluctantly decline the offer made by the Department of Militia to trade military materiel in return for the designs for the AL-52 Dragon airborne laser platform. The poor human rights record of the Mercanary Camp of Avoya precludes our company from transfering arms and technology between our nations. Should the political situation in Avoya improve this decision will be reviewed with post-haste.
OOC: Sorry to have to rebuff you in this manner, but ICly EA has very strict rules concerning respect for human rights. If I've read the situation in your nation wrong I'll of course review the decision.

(SH-79B “Barracuda” shipborne combat helicopter in Block I configuration as it will be delivered to the Antigran Navy.)
NEW AUGUSTA, EA - Aerodyne Inc. today announced the production launch of the next-generation AH-79C Anaconda attack helicopter and SH-79B Barracuda shipborne combat helicopter.
The AH-79C Anaconda and SH-79B Barracuda are based on a common modular airframe and are powered by twin turboshaft engines. Both aircraft feature a elastomeric bearingless/hingeless main rotor (folding in the case of the SH-79B), tandem stepped crashworthy cockpit, digital crew stations and a Kevlar backed carbon-fibre reinforced plastic airframe. Advanced sensors and self-protection systems include third-generation FLIR, mast-mounted 360° low probability of intercept radar and multi-spectral RF and IR countermeasures suites.
Aerodyne Inc. has signed memorandums of understanding (MoU) with a number of governments including the Republic of Zinaire and Autocratic Federated Empire of Akimonad to supply an unspecified number of AH-79C Anaconda’s fitted with APG-78 Longbow fire control radars and armed with M230 Chain Guns; and with the United Kingdom of Antigr to supply SH-79B Barracuda’s with APS-151 mast-mounted radar, automatic deck locking systems, and a folding tail and main rotor. The SH-79B has ~80% of the spot factor of a SH-60 Seahawk, making it an ideal candidate for launching anti-ship, anti-air and airborne early warning missions from destroyer and frigate flight decks.

Subject: Acquisition of B-90A aircraft
Greetings.
We require a replacement platform for high-altitude theater bombing due to the upcoming retirement of our existing B-41C "Condor" theater bomber.
We are extremely satisfied customers Lariat tank series, which your company worked so hard on. As such, we put our trust in Sequoia Defense Systems again.
We would like to procure a total of five thousand (5,000) B-90A theater bombing platforms for a total cost of $2,200,000,000,000.00 USD. If Sequoia Defense Systems is not capable of producing the requested number, we can produce a substantial amount of aircraft in our own production facilities.
We would like to have at least 265 units active (total number required to fully replace the B-41C platform) by February 2009.
To ensure that Sequoia Defense Systems is well-funded to continue to develop and produce such fine systems, we will be wiring a $2,000,000,000,000.00 USD gratuity with the aforementioned cost of the units we wish to procure.
We sincerely thank the hard-working employees of Sequoia Defense Systems for their efforts, and we thank the administrators of SDS for their time spent in considering this order.

My company has analysed the substantial order made by your office and proposes under the following terms to supply part of the 5,000 unit order in a number of tranches spread across several years, and the remainder through licensed production in Asgarnieu. This agreement would cover the transfer of 265 finished aircraft in ready-to-fly condition for delivery no later than February 2009 for acceptance by the Asgarnian air force, and thereafer the transfer of 250 finished aircraft per year for the next ten years. Seqioua Defence Systems would also be prepared to grant a limited domestic production rights (LDPR) contract to a Asgarnian aerospace manufacturer to produce up to 2,500 airframes and powerplants over a 11 year period of performance beginning January 2009 and ending November 2020. Both the LDPR agreement and first 265 production aircraft will be funded through the US$2 trillion gratuity you have offered in lieu of the standard royalty rates. I hope that the Office of the 5-Star General find this agreement to their liking, and look forward to confirmation of the order and first deliveries of the B-90A Condor aircraft to Asgarnieu..

Greetings on behalf of the Kingdom of Hryvatia. Under the authority of Her Majesty the Queen, I have been authorized to modernize the Kingdom's military as I see fit, gradually phasing out the old Soviet weaponry of the Socialist Federal Republic. With the tremendous economic growth of the Kingdom since 1991, we are now at a stage where we may take our ground and air forces to meet the same level of technological superiority as our Navy.
After carefully reviewing the market and performance trials of various infantry fighting vehicles, we feel confident in our choice to select the M65CA7 Talon+ to replace the inferior SFR BVP M-80s and complement our Lariat 1A1L MBTs. Unfortunately, whist we would also like to fulfil our aerial requirements at this moment in time, we are currently awaiting the finalization of the 2009 Parliamentary Budget Report, which hopefully should facilitate future purchases with large cuts in education and healthcare. As such I can only offer a three-year contract to deliver the aforementioned armour, with equal payments arriving annually in accordance with production.

The SH-79B Barracuda shipborne combat helicopter is an attack helicopter platform designed to operate from the deck of a frigates destroyer or assault ship providing an airborne anti-ship and anti-air platform and prompt airborne early warning capability. It is wholly unsuited for the purpose of clay pigeon shooting due to its large downwash and heavy armanent. We would recommend a Robinson R22 Beta, which our industrial partner manufactures under license as a primary trainer for helicopter pilots, or R22 Mariner with floatation gear as a more suitable alternative.

Response to contract award from Aissurian Ministry of Defense
Our engineers have concluded that it would be possible - though not neccessarily preferable - to configure the AH-79C Anaconda helicopter to carry and fire some Warsaw Pact munitions. This would be enabled through software patches to the avionics, fire control radar and MIL-STD-1760C weapon bus, and some modifications being made to RS-422 interfaces on the stores pylons to transfer signals to the Russian ordnance. Only a limited set of weapons would be possible to be made compatible in this way. These are: Vympel R-73 X-25ML air-to-air missile, up to two on the wingtip launcher rails
Igla-V air-to-air missile, in 2- or 4-tube launcher units
Vikhr-M anti-armour missile, in clusters of 6 for a maximum of 12
S-80 rockets (80 mm), in 20-tube B8V20 launchers for a maxmum of 40 rockets
250 kg FAB-250 bombsSuch modifications will signficantly increase the cost of each aircraft due to the cost of R&D, testing and changes made in the production line.

OOC: Sorry to clutter this thread with this business, but seeing as how it's becoming pretty widely procured, I thought I should point out a problem with the PH-158/L65A1 that Lei and I noted. The 120km range is several times greater than any RL self-propelled howitzer. I'm not sure if you have a rationale for this or if it was a typo or just a number that you never got around to correcting.
Anyway, I'd appreciate it if you'd address this so my poor soldiers don't end up getting shelled from 120km away (or, if you can back that number up, so I can buy some).

However, as of this time Anemos Major is not willing to undergo a complete removal of RAH-66 Comanche helicopters from its armed forces, and so the only unit receiving the AH-79C as of now will be the 1st Helicopter Assault of the Marine Flight Wing.
We would like to order 200 AH-79Cs, which should come to a total of 7.2 billion NSD.

Anyway, I'd appreciate it if you'd address this so my poor soldiers don't end up getting shelled from 120km away (or, if you can back that number up, so I can buy some).
OOC: The 120 km is correct when using rocket-assisted extended range guided cargo shells. I omitted to add (but now corrected) that with unguided ballsitic shells the range is only 40 km. The gun has a long 65 calibre tube to allow it to achieve those kind of ranges and a large pepperpot muzzle break to deal with the recoil, though firing energy is in the same range as the 120 mm L/55 cannon on the M35A2 Cataphract. I hope that information reassures you as far as performance of the system. I'll address the latest contract awards in a little while.

I appreciate the information you provided but as neither Sequoia Defence Systems or our government knows anything about your nation or of Earth V, we therefore cannot in all conscience agree to sell this amount of defence equipment at this time to an unfamiliar nation without further reassurance.
Unlike nearly every other storefront, Sequoia Defence Systems does not have a "no questions asked" policy regarding its customers. Our purpose is to support fellow democracies and other sovereign nations in the areas of self defence and detterence.
SDS would be willing to reconsider this decision if Military Command can show it is a pluralistic democratic i.e. having multi-party politics as well as holding elections, and that the weapons it requires will be used soley for the purposes of legitimate self protection.

Sequoia Defence Systems feels that to sell weapons to the Republic of Pirates of pataya may damage its reputation as it would imply support by our company towards piracy. In that regard this decision is final.

To: War Department
Re: Contract award
I wish to thank the War Department for their patience and the information they have provided to our company. I am pleased to inform you that our government has approved export licenses to Military Command and were are accessing how best to supply such a substantial order. If the War Department still intends to continue with this order, we believe the best way to proceed will be to structure your order in a multi-year production agreement split into a number of tranches so as not to overwhelm our production capacity. Our estimates are that it will take up to 25 years to produce all the ordered aircraft and 5 years to produce all the ordered ground vehicles. If this is satisfactory our company is willing to commence deliveries from existing stocks as we increase production capacity. Furthermore, our company will reduce the contract value by 1 billion US Dollars in recognition to delays encountered with your order.
