SH-4
Introduction: The SH-4 is our newest maritime patrol helicopter, designed as a replacement for helicopters like the SH-60. It is designed to operate for up to 320 minutes and can carry up to 2000kg of munitions.
Layout: The H-4 series is laid out conventionally, with a four-blade main rotor and three-blade tail rotor. The SH-4, designed for shipborne operation, does feature a hinged, folding tail, saving space on the decks of warships. Composites are used extensively in the rotor blades, lightening the weight. Weapons are stowed on either of the two 1000kg weapons stations, which are mounted on opposite sides of the helicopter.
Propulsion: The H-4 series is powered by two TE-TS-1150 turboshaft (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?showtopic=5603&view=findpost&p=3479105)s, each generating 1150 kilowatts. The TS-1150 series is based on the LHTEC T800.
Search systems: The SH-4 has a 12-unit sonobuoy launcher on the left side of the aft fuselage, an XR/HMD-2 towed heliborne magnetic anomaly detector on the right side of the aft fuselage, a VE/HSR-160 (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?showtopic=5603&view=findpost&p=3479106) heliborne surface search radar, a CS/HDS-111 heliborne dipping sonar mounted on a 500-meter cable that deploys from the tail while the SH-4 hovers at 18m above sea level, and a VE/HMS-110 (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?showtopic=5603&view=findpost&p=3479104) heliborne minehunting system deployed from the bottom of the helicopter.

C-62 Steeler
Introduction: The C-62 series is intended as a replacement for a variety of airplanes, including the E-2C carrier-capable AEW&C platform, the C-2 carrier on-board delivery plane, the AC-27J light gunship, and the An-72 'Coaler' light tactical STOL transport.
Airframe: The C-62 series features supercritical wings, like any other plane designed to operate from short fields. These wings have a flattened upper surface, curved aft, and high leading edge radius, giving them very high lift. Further, the C-62 itself features overwing engines, making use of the Coanda effect to generate even higher lift and allow the Steeler to take off from airfields as short as 285 meters. Overwing engines are also found on the C-62N and C-62NA STOBAR-capable aircraft. Control surfaces on the C-62 series are made from composites.
Propulsion: The C-62 series uses paired TE-T-44 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14337672&postcount=19) axial-flow, twin-shaft high-bypass turbofans, each generating 9000kgf of static thrust. The Steeler carries sufficient fuel to travel 350km unrefueled carrying a full payload, or 2000km if operating from a short field. The C-62P features ski & wheel landing gear.
Systems: The C-62 uses the VE/DIC-6 directional IR countermeasure and AN/ALE-24 chaff launcher to spoof IR-guided or radar-guided missiles. It also uses the AN/APQ-116 terrain-following radar for navigation, and carries an AN/APN-234 weather radar.
Versatile platform: The C-62 series includes, in addition to the Steeler itself, the C-62N Pirate COD plane, the C-62NA Reckless carrier-capable AEW&C, the AC-62 Ghastly light gunship, the C-62P Icebox arctic-capable transport, the SC-62 Privateer maritime patrol plane, the WC-62 Windtalker weather plane, and the C-62C Miller civil air freighter.

CM-39 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=578707)
Introduction: Inspired by the Advanced Cruise Missile, this weapon is intended to serve as a low-observable long-range subsonic anti-ship missile. Our 5-4-3 design goal was to deliver a 500kg warhead 4000km to within 3m of the target.
Airframe: We have incorporated a number of features into the airframe to reduce its RCS. These range from general features - radar-absorbent paints, a low-power controlled-emission guidance system, and a beavertail nozzle shield to reduce engine emissions - to frontal (sharp nose cone, forward-swept wings), shoulder (chines), and low-frequency (radome-structured fins and wings) RCS reduction. The missile itself is 9 meters long, allowing for more fuel and a heavier warhead to be carried.
Guidance: The CM-39 uses terrain-contour matching and an inertial navigation system. It is fitted with a GPS - though we expect most nations to attempt to destroy GPS systems on the outbreak of war, we also expect that there will be sufficient GPS systems for it to get at least commercial-level accuracy, and that GPS satellites will be cheap enough to launch to ensure the 3m CEP in our design goals. A DSMAC (digital scene matching area correlation) system is also incorporated into the guidance system in the land-attack variant, allowing the missile to correct its course based on previously-taken images. The CM-39's attack profile is low-altitude, low-observable, low-speed, and long-ranged; it remains subsonic throughout its flight, once released from the bomber that carried it. Terminal guidance is provided via IR sensors, which require less power and are harder to spoof than radar guidance.
Engine: We commissioned our subsidiary, Tsien Engines, to design a new turbofan to give the performance we wanted out of the CM-39; they came through with the TE-T-424 turbofan, which generates 4.24kN (432.4kgf; 953.2lbf) of thrust, sufficient to power the CM-39 at speeds of Mach 0.8. Our ship-based and sub-based variants include a small solid-rocket booster to launch the missile.
Warhead: We fitted a 500kg warhead into the CM-39. The land-attack variant can be fitted with a MEPHISTO warhead, which combines a precharge and initial penetrating charge (total of 160kg) to penetrate a bunker or clear soil with a main warhead (338kg) triggered by a variable delay fuse.
Specifications -
Length: 9m

T-36 Tulip
(http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=579419)Introduction: The T-36 is a primary jet trainer, intended to give students their first 'taste' of jet operations. It can be used for basic air combat training, fitted with a simple radar and three hardpoints for practice missiles, practice bombs, rocket pods or machine guns. It can travel at supersonic speeds with its afterburner, permitting exposure to such high speeds before students move on to larger jets.
Airframe: The T-36 has wings swept at 30°. The entire airframe is reinforced in the T-36N naval jet trainer, which also features canards and chines to improve lift and reduce take-off distance.
Controls: The T-36 has two sets of controls, one for the student and one for the instructor. The two sets can either move together (for demonstration purposes), or be separated, using a switch in the instructor's throttle. When instructors want their students to pilot, they can either split the two control sets to give students' sets control, or can simply have students use the controls in order to observe their motions. When instructors need to correct students' motions, instructors can again either split the control sets to give their own sets full control, or simply move the controls accordingly. A simple intercom system allows for communications between student and instructor. Controls are simplified versions of modern digital controls.
Propulsion: The T-36 uses two Eichi Jets EJ-TF-46 turbofans, each generating 16kN (3596lbf) of thrust. The EJ-TF-46 has a compressor with 5 high-pressure stages and 3 low-pressure stages, while the turbine itself has 1 HP and 1 LP stage.
Combat training: The T-36 includes the compact Fiat R21G/M1 ranging radar and three hardpoints for basic air combat training. One 200kg hardpoint is mounted on each wing, while a 300kg hardpoint is mounted on the belly. The AT-36 light attack variant carries a heavy machine gun with 1800 rounds of ammunition, in addition to a normal warload of 500kg on the three hardpoints.

F-21 Anteater (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=578754)
Introduction: Our aim was to build a modern multirole fighter. Our design goals were to carry significant external stores at relatively long range in a modestly-stealthy airframe.
Airframe: We went with a trapezoidal wing, providing the best features of delta wings, forward-swept wings, and standard swept wings. At each wingtip is a hardpoint for our AAM-97 Viper; on the wing itself are eight external pylons. Below the nose is a weapons bay carrying a 25mm GAU-12/U cannon with 600 shells. We incorporated planform-aligned wing and tail edges, a sloped fuselage and canopy, canted vertical surfaces, and a serpentine inlet duct for the engines, along with a signature-assessment system (SAS) designed to inform pilots and maintenance workers when wear-and-tear has degraded the stealthiness of the F-21.
Engine: We went with two TE-T-219 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14337672&postcount=19) turbofans, an improved version of the engine that which powers the F-22. These generate 15950 kgf (156.4kN; 35163.7lbf) thrust each, providing sufficient thrust to achieve similar performance to the F-22.
Electronics: We fitted the Vo Electronics VE/AAR-71 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14340888&postcount=29) AESA radar, which is a solid-state design resistant to jamming and reception by radar warning receivers due to a high scanning rate. For jamming, we have fitted the AN/ALQ-135(V) active radar jammer and VE/DIC-6 directional IR countermeasure system (which sends energy in the direction of detected IR sensors). The AN/ALQ-99E integrated jamming pod can be fitted, and is standard on EF-21 EW support planes. Finally, our FA-21 fighter-bombers carry the AN/APQ-146 terrain-following radar.

F-7N Seagull (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=578970)
Introduction: We had wanted to build a carrier-capable version of the F-21, but weight estimates kept creeping up as design requirements mounted, and the F-21N had to be dropped. However, we kept some people working on a lightweight fighter, and they've come through with a new design: the F-7N Seagull. It's moderately stealthy thanks to its internal weapons bays, and it can operate from flight decks as short as 350m.
Airframe: To allow the F-7N to fly off even rather small carriers, we knew the airframe itself would be important. We went with a supercritical swept-wing design, which gives both better performance at transonic speeds and higher lift. We included chines (triangular pieces running from wing root to near the cockpit along the fuselage; effectively small delta wings) to both increase lift at high angles of incidence and reduce shoulder RCS. We added canards to shorten the take-off distance and improve maneuverability. We also only included internal weapons bays, so as to reduce drag; incidentally, this helped reduce the RCS. The engine is a single PW-1120 turbofan generating 60.1kN thrust dry, 91.6kN wet.
Avionics: In addition to its digital fly-by-wire flight control computer, the Seagull features the VE/AAR-71S AESA radar, a scaled-down version of the VE/AAR-71 found on the F-21 and the VE/DIC-11 nose-mounted small directional IR countermeasure system (which uses a single diode-based pump to direct pulses of IR energy in order to jam IR-guided munitions).
Armament: In addition to a nose-mounted Mauser BK-27 Linkless 27mm aircraft cannon (with 450 shells), the F-7N features two internal weapons bays, each with three 200kg pylons, and two 125kg wingtip hardpoints for short-range AAMs. It thus carries a warload of 2250kg.

F-128 Broadsword
This is a high-altitude high-speed interceptor built around a delta-wing frame and the J-58 engine, adding in a modern avionics set (including the AN/APG-77I radar, a variant on the F-22's set optimized for high altitudes). To fuel the thirsty J-58 engines, fuel tanks are included under and behind the nose. Internal weapons bays allow up to 4000 pounds of munitions, such as 9 Meteors or 11 AMRAAMs. The J-58 provides superior performance, especially in speed and altitude; further, the F-128 has a range dramatically superior to that of an F-22 without drop tanks. Finally, the F-128 incorporates chines and other features meant to reduce its RCS taken from the SR-71 design.

AH-62 Sutai:
The AH-56 Cheyenne was a fast, well-armed helicopter, a design that slipped out of the US Army's hands. We've brought back the design – with some improvements. Whereas the Cheyenne had one engine, the Sutai incorporates two TE-TS-762 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14337672&postcount=19) turboshaft engines (an improved version of the AH-64's engines, giving better performance for less weight), meaning that a single engine failure will not lead to a crash. Whereas the Cheyenne featured separate belly and nose turrets, the Sutai has a single nose turret for simplicity, along with 6 hard points. And whereas the Cheyenne featured the best analog avionics of the 1960s, the Sutai includes features of modern helicopter design, including a Fenestron tail for improved safety and reduced noise, the AN/APG-78 Longbow radar seen on the AH-64D, and stealth technology pioneered in the RAH-66.

C-15 Ulysses
Introduction: For this project, we wanted to design a medium transport that could both operate off short fields and deliver meaningful loads significant distances.
Airframe: For good short-field performance, what is necessary is lift, at low speeds. To achieve this, we incorporated two key features. First, we used externally-blown flaps, which arrange the C-15's engines to blow across the flaps at the rear of the wing, redirecting airflow and jet exhaust downward to produce lift. Second, we used supercritical wings, which create significant lift due to their enlarged leading edges. Collectively, these features allow the Ulysses to take off from fields as short as 570 meters!
Engines: We used four TE-T-52 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14337672&postcount=19) turbofans, an improved version of the TE-T-44 turbofan. The TE-T-52 is an axial-flow, twin-shaft high-bypass turbofan; it uses 5 core booster stages, rather than 4, behind the fan, and 10 high-pressure compression stages, to boost the core power, and thus the thrust. Thus, we can get 13000kgf static thrust on takeoff, which allows for the tremendous lift needed for short-field operations.
Systems: The C-15 carries the VE/DIC-6L large directional IR countermeasure, along with the AN/APQ-116 terrain-following radar (for navigation), the AN/ALE-24 chaff launcher (to spoof radar-guided munitions), the AN/ALQ-117 active jammer (to directly spoof radars), and AN/ALE-20 flare launcher (to further throw off IR-guided weapons). The C-15A AEW &C variant also carries the Erieye AESA radar, while the C-15BM battlefield management variant carries the AN/APY-7 side-looking phased array radar in addition to the C-15's systems. The SC-15 maritime patrol craft adds the AN/APY-10 airborne surface search radar, the AN/AQS-13F dipping sonar, and the Xiao Radars XR/MAD-1 towed magnetic anomaly detector, along with a 30-tube sonobuoy launcher on either side of the fuselage, four 1000kg external pylons and a 13500kg internal bomb bay. The AC-15 close air support variant adds the AN/APQ-180 synthetic aperture radar and AN/AAQ-26 forward-looking IR sensor for finding targets; it carries a 120mm breechloader mortar and four Bushmaster III 35mm/50-caliber cannon. The WC-15 weather plane variant has a launcher for the dropsonde windfinding system, two Colin Systems CS/AWR-3 airborne weather radars (C-band radars, mounted in nose and lower fuselage), the AN/APQ-116 radar, and a Stepped-Frequency Microwave Radiometer. The C-15C civilian cargo transport has the AN/APQ-116, AN/ALE-20, and CS/AWR-3. Finally, the PC-15 psychological warfare aircraft variant adds broadcast systems for TV, VHF and UHF, and the AN/APR-9 radar warning receiver.

R-14
Introduction: A request was made for a battle rifle chambered for the 8x57mm Mauser that used 20-round boxes. It was quickly realized that this could not be an automatic rifle, due to excessive recoil, so we decided to focus on accuracy above all else.
Action: We chose to use a short-stroke piston gas operated rotating bolt system, with the piston directly pushing the bolt group. This system reduces the total mass of recoiling parts, thereby increasing the accuracy. An electrical primer is used to reduce the time between the trigger pull and ignition of the cartridge.
Sights: We took the 3-12x50 Police Marksman II telescopic scope (with red-dot reticule) from the PSG-1A1 and placed it on the R-14, allowing users of the R-14 to aim their shots with a high degree of accuracy at ranges as far as 600m.
Trigger group: We put in an adjustable two-stage trigger, allowing full control over the firing process. All three stages of pulling the trigger - the takeup (the first stage of the trigger), the break (pulling the trigger to just before the shot is fired) and the overtravel (the distance the trigger moves after firing) - can be adjusted, as well as the location of the trigger itself. Further, to ensure a relaxed but firm grip on the trigger itself, the grip is stippled - that is, a random pattern of dents is punched into the surface, providing more friction (and thus reducing gun motion) than an ordinary smooth surface.
Stock and barrel: Shims (which adjust the angle of the stock) are included, allowing shooters to fit the stock to their shooting style. The barrel, a free-floating barrel that has as little contact with the stock as possible, is made from stainless steel that was subjected to cryogenic treatment (which converts soft austentite into very hard martensite), to ensure that its accuracy remains intact for long periods of time. Further, we use an octagonal die to cast the barrel, rather than the more common hammer-forging method, to reduce stress in the barrel. Finally, to deal with any harmonics in the barrel, we incorporated an adjustable damper, which shooters should use to find the 'sweet spot.'
Other considerations: We fitted two Picatinny rails, allowing users to fit extra magazines, underbarrel grenade launchers, or other equipment to their R-14. We recommend using versions of the 8x57mm bullet that incorporate modern propellants, increasing muzzle velocity. Higher velocity reduces the bullet dwell time - that is, the time in which the bullet is still in the rifle and would still be affected by slight motions by the shooter. We further recommend that shooters use propanolol, a beta-blocker, which reduces tremors.

R-25 Smok
Introduction: The R-25 is a modern bullpup rifle chambered for the 6.8x43mm SPC round.
Construction: The R-25 series uses polygonal rifling, in which an octagonal die is used as an anvil for the hammer that will forge the barrel, all at once, rather than requiring multiple steps to machine the barrel. It saves time, and thus money, but requires skilled metallurgy. Before we ship, we zero two sight-settings in order to correct for any unusual warping in the barrel itself during production.
Feed: The R-25 takes 20-round or 30-round magazines, or 52-round helical magazines. The R-25S sharpshooter rifle and R-25H hunting rifle use the 20-round magazine, and the latter is limited to semiautomatic fire only; only the R-25L light machine gun uses 52-round helical magazines mounted on top of the weapon itself to provide support for infantry squads. The action of the R-25 series is a gas-operated rotating bolt action, as with most modern rifles.
Action: The R-25 uses a short-stroke piston rotating bolt action. The piston, which moves separately from the bolt, operating through a connecting rod, imparts energy through a short, violent, arrested push; kinetic energy drives the bolt through the rest of the operating cycle. This action allows for more control over the rifle. The firing mechanism is open-bolt.
Extras: The R-25C and R-25D have one Picatinny rail for an underbarrel grenade launcher or a spare magazine, while the R-25 and R-25T have two. In addition to normal iron sights, the R-25 and R-25C are fitted with a 3x-magnification telescopic sight; the R-25S and R-25H have a laser range finder on the sight as well, while the R-25D and R-25L only have iron sights. The R-25L also has a sturdy foregrip, a heavier barrel, and a bipod mount.

SR-25 suppressor
While no suppressor can fully eliminate the sound of a rifle, especially not one firing supersonic cartridges, the SR-25 can reduce noise levels, making the R-25 easier to use. The SR-25 is constructed from steel, and consists of a 5mm expansion chamber, followed by nine conical baffles spaced 2mm apart. It uses a Fast-Attach eccentric lock ring system to connect the SR-25 to the flash suppressor, allowing for rapid attachment. Firing R-25s fitted with the SR-25 produced 135 decibels, a decrease of 25dB from the norm; interestingly, muzzle velocity increased 5m/s. The SR-25 can be fitted to any 6.8x43mm rifle.

ATGM-11 Kestrel (http://i567.photobucket.com/albums/ss117/jgull/ATGM11.jpg?t=1235884612)
Introduction: We felt a new light AT missile was needed to deal with more heavily armored IFVs, light tanks and bunkers. As such, we developed the ATGM-11 Kestrel.
Missile: The Kestrel has a tandem-charge EFP warhead, designed to first deal with any explosive reactive armor, then punch a hole in the target. It is a soft-launch missile, allowing for it to be fired from even enclosed spaces without severe impact from the exhaust. A two-man team can carry 2-4 missiles.
Engagement modes: The Kestrel can engage its target in either of two modes. First, in the Top-Attack (TA) mode, the missile flies at least 1m above the line-of-sight, and uses magnetic and laser proximity sensors to determine when it is above the target's roof. Second, in the Direct Attack (DA) mode, the missile is unguided and simply follows line of sight to the target.
Guidance: Initially, the ATGM-11 uses predicted line-of-sight (PLOS) guidance, in which the operator tracks the target for three seconds prior to launch, allowing the missile to predict a flight path to the target. Once fired, the missile uses inertial guidance to ensure it is traveling on that flight path. Terminal guidance is provided by magnetic and laser proximity sensors.

ATGM-85
Introduction: The widespread use of active protection systems has made some ATGMs, like the TOW-2B, obsolete, as they are too slow to avoid being picked up on radar and either jammed or destroyed by the APS. We have thus designed a new ATGM, using advanced guidance to avoid being jammed and using speed (along with countermeasures) to avoid being destroyed by a hard-kill APS.
Missile: The missile consists of a kinetic energy penetrator surrounded by small decoy rockets, with a larger solid-fuel rocket at the rear. The front of the KEP consists of 15kg of depleted uranium, which provides a 'warhead' of sorts and acts as a passive countermeasure to hard-kill APS.
Guidance: The ATGM-85 uses semi-active laser homing, following a path to laser-illuminated targets. This system cannot be easily jammed, strongly reducing the effectiveness of soft-kill APS.
Countermeasures: The ATGM-85 is, at its core, a KEP, with small countermeasure rockets built around it. These rockets separate from the sabot 0.5s after launch, initially acting simply as decoys, then dispensing chaff and flares 1.25s after the ATGM-85 is launched to fog up APS radars and infrared systems. The main countermeasure, however, is the speed of the ATGM-85. The combined thrust of three powerful solid-fuel rockets allows it to travel at a speed of 2100m/s, dramatically reducing the time available for the APS to react.
Target destruction: Rather than incorporating any warhead, the ATGM-85 relies on its tremendous kinetic energy to destroy its targets.

GL-10
Introduction: The GL-10 is a new automatic grenade launcher, designed to fire 25x60mm grenades. It is lightweight, and can be modified into the MG-15 15x124mm heavy machine gun in two minutes.
Grenades: The GL-10 can fire a variety of 25mm grenades, from conventional HE or smoke grenades to more exotic rounds like PPHE (programmable pre-fragmented HE) or thermobaric grenades. These can be fired at a cyclic rate of up to 300rpm, with an effective range of 2km.
Action: The GL-10 uses a gas operated short-stroke piston action, in which the piston moves separately from the bolt group, pushing the bolt via a connecting rod. The motion of the piston is arrested early, reducing the total mass of recoiling parts.
Fire control: The GL-10 features the LVS (lightweight visual sight), combining laser rangefinding, night vision equipment, and a ballistic fire control computer. It is mounted on a tripod for man-portable use, or can be fitted in standard vehicle mounts.

Mk.111 37x257mm chain gun
Introduction: The Mk.111 is a single-barrel 'chain gun', in which an electric motor is used to load and fire the cannon. It uses 37x257mm shells.
Air burst technology: The Mk.111 is designed to make use of air-burst technology. Operators can use the Mk.148 fire control system to set shells' fuses to explode at a precise range, determined by a laser rangefinder, milliseconds before firing.
Rapid fire: The Mk.111 can fire off up to 300 shells in one minute, then needs an 8-minute cooling-off period before firing again to avoid undue damage to the barrel. The 300 shells can be fired off in a continuous stream, in 100-shell bursts separated by 10-second intervals, or in 50-shell bursts separated by 5-second intervals.
Shells: The Mk.111 can fire HEDP (high-explosive dual purpose, used for infantry and lightly-armored targets), HEI (high-explosive incendiary, used for infantry and other 'soft' targets), API (armor-piercing incendiary, fitted with depleted uranium and used for armored targets), TP (target practice), and APFSDS (armor-piercing fin-stabilized discarding sabot, which uses a DU sabot with diameter of 20mm to penetrate armored targets by kinetic energy) shells.

MG-6
Introduction: Given the disappointingly low rate of fire of the MG-15, and the desire for a new general-purpose machine gun for both vehicles and infantry, we decided to design a new GPMG, the MG-6. Originally, we looked into new cartridges, but eventually went with the 6.8x43mm SPC, an intermediate round already used in our popular R-25 series. In conjunction with this project, we also developed the B-77 (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?showtopic=5759&view=findpost&p=3494566) 6.8x43mm HEIAP round, designed to defeat body armor.
Action: The MG-6 uses a short-stroke piston gas-operated rotating bolt. The piston, which moves separately from the bolt, operating through a connecting rod, imparts energy through a short, violent, arrested push; kinetic energy drives the bolt through the rest of the operating cycle. This action allows for more control over the gun. The firing mechanism is open-bolt.
Barrel: The MG-6 uses a quick-change chrome-lined barrel, 630mm long, with a slotted flash suppressor and four right-hand grooves with a 152mm (1:6 inch) twist rate. The long barrel gives it a higher muzzle energy, propelling SPC rounds at 845m/s. Bullets are fed in through the left-hand side using open-link ammunition belts.
Variants: The MG-6 is our standard vehicle-mounted GPMG. The MG-6I is our infantry variant, featuring a folding bipod with aluminum legs, a stock, and a pistol grip with a conventional (rather than electrically-powered) trigger and iron sights. The MG-6N/MG-6IN is rechambered for the 7.62x51mm NATO round, while the MG-6R/MG-6IR is rechambered for the 7.62x54mm WP round.

T42 Oliver (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/09/AMX40-2.jpg)
This is a fairly conventional second-tier MBT, based on the hull of the AMX 40. The Norinco fire control system found on the MBT 2000 replaces the outdated COTAC fire-control system, while the armor scheme is replaced with one using the latest in modern armor design to give the tank an RHAe of 600mm without unduly increasingly weight. Modern navigation systems, along with an LTS-1 laser threat warner and the Leclerc's modernized automatic transmission, have been fitted as well. To accommodate these systems, and a new Perkins 1200hp engine, the hull was lengthened somewhat. Still, the Oliver is a relatively light tank, as main battle tanks go. Unloaded, it could even be carried aboard the C-15 Ulysses!
Length: tank = 35'1.3” (10.7m), hull = 21'3.9” (6.5m)
Width: 13'0.3” (3.36m)
Height: 10'2” (3.1m)
Combat weight: 49.39 tons (44.9 tonnes)
Crew: 4
Armor: 600mm RHAe
Armament: Rheinmetall L55 120mm smoothbore, 20mm F2 cannon (coaxial), 7.62mm MG (AA).
Ammo: 40x120mm, 578x20mm, 2250x7.62mm
Engine: Perkins 1200hp diesel
Power/weight: 26.0hp/tonne
Transmission: ESM-500 automatic transmission
Operational range: 500km
Speed: 73km/h
Variants: T42U (Up-armored; includes appliqué armor, at cost of speed; also includes improved armor on the underside of the tank to reduce the threat of mines or IEDs), T42R (recovery vehicle; fitted with bulldozer blade & crane with integral winch in place of 120mm cannon and shells), T42B (Bridge: carries a folding mobile bridge for bridging rivers with in place of the turret), T42T (Training; turret replaced with an observation cab and a dummy gun).
Price: T-42 $39 million, T-42U $49 million, T-42R $30 million, T-42B $30 million, T-42T $24 million.

T-4 Lynx
The Lynx is our first tank to mount a electro-thermal-chemical gun. It is armed with the Mk. 14 105mm ETC gun, which is based on the venerable M68 rifled 105mm gun. Its armor protection scheme consists of a sloped, composite matrix of laminated ceramic-nickel-steel alloy, providing RHAe of 1000mm; it is also fitted with explosive reactive armor to defend against ATGMs. Powered by the GD883 V12 water-cooled diesel, the Lynx has respectable performance, and features helical spring suspension. Do be aware that, like the T-42, it is not a top-line MBT; it is distinctly second-tier. On the other hand, it is relatively light-weight, making it more easily deployed than its heavier competitors.
Weight: 52 tonnes (57.3 tons)

T-11 Sao Paulo
Introduction: The T-11 is meant to be our counter to modern tanks, which are far superior to 3rd-generation tanks like the M1 Abrams.
Armament: The primary weapon of the Sao Paulo is the Mk.24 122mm/56-caliber ETC smoothbore, powered by four 30kW fuel cells in the bustle of the turret. As secondary armament, we provide a coaxial 14.5x114mm KPV heavy machine gun and another KPV in a remote weapons station on the roof. Further, 6 VIRSS smoke grenades are fitted, in two triple launchers.
Protection: The T11H armor package provides dramatically improved protection compared to our older tanks. It features composite armor, consisting of layers of steel and depleted uranium forming a sandwich around titanium boride ceramic plates, reinforced with synthetic diamond for added toughness, Kevlar spall lining, explosive reactive armor, and 2 Trophy APS mounts. The T-11's armor has, at its most-protected point, an RHAe of 2110mm. The Trophy Active Protection System tracks incoming projectiles and intercepts them with a grenade.
Systems: The T-11 features an autoloader, an overpressure NBC system, a ballistic computer, laser and thermal rangefinders and a boiling vessel/teakettle, along with the Trophy APS. The autoloader allows firing rates of up to 9 rounds/minute; seven 3-round 'columns' are kept in the turret, while seven more are stored below. Finally, the CREW-2 electronic warfare system, meant to jam remotely-controlled bombs, is installed.
Propulsion: The T-11 uses Guarita's DO66-2S99 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=527629) engine, generating 2000hp and powering the electrically-enhanced ignition of the tank's main gun. A 30kW fuel cell is mounted beside the driver's compartment for auxiliary power, along with a small bank of lithium+ polymer batteries.
A versatile hull: The T-11 hull is used for the IFT-11 series of infantry fighting vehicles, the ICT-11 infantry combat vehicle, the GT-11 series of artillery vehicles, and the ADT-11 air defense vehicle. Other proposals include the T-11H heavy tank, the T-11B bridgelayer, and the T-11T training tank.

LTV-67 light tank
Introduction: A request was made for a new light tank, with a production cost requirement of not more than $2 million per tank and with superior performance to the Type 61. Thus, the LTV-67, based on the chassis of our upcoming ADV-67 Lieutenant Saidi SPAAG and our upcoming IFV-67 infantry fighting vehicle, among others - a modified Stingray hull.
Armament: We have elected to design a new 90mm/53-caliber ETC gun, based on the rifled 90mm cannon of the Type 61. This weapon, the Mk.30, is expected to cost $750000, but should generate muzzle energy of 16mJ, permitting muzzle velocities of 1400m/s. The LTV-67 will store 35 shells, 21 in the turret itself and 14 in the hull. In addition, we fitted our MG-15 15x124mm machine gun in coaxial (500 rounds) and turret roof (250 rounds) mounts.
Systems: First, we fitted a modern thermal tank sight, giving the LTV-67 night vision capability. We developed a basic fire control computer, the CS/TFC-30 tank fire control system, to help guide the gunner in aiming and firing the Mk.30 cannon. Next, we mounted two twin launchers for VIRSS (Vision and InfraRed Screening Smoke) grenades. We also fitted an AN/VSS-5 driver's sight, a JT-FSS-11 halon fire suppression system, a PF/BV-1 boiling vessel, and an overpressure NBC system. Finally, we fitted the Arena-E hard-kill Active Protection System, which uses radar to track incoming munitions traveling at velocities of 70-700m/s and then uses a computer to determine when to fire off any of its 26 projectiles to intercept the munitions. Its reaction time is 0.05 seconds, and it can protect the tank on a 300-degree arc.
Armor: The LTV-67 uses Chobham-style composite armor, featuring a layer of boron carbide ceramics sandwiched between two layers of steel. At its thickest point, this armor is equivalent to 231mm of RHA. In addition, we fitted non-explosive reactive armor, which involves two parallel metal plates, with a layer of incompressible formaldehyde between them, to the tank. If a shaped charge attempts to penetrate the plates, then the formaldehyde will cause the plates to press up into the explosive jet, ruining the warhead.
Engine: We selected the EJ-FD-10 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14336702&postcount=14) flat-10 multifuel diesel engine. It can run on diesel, gasoline, ethanol or a variety of other fuels, and, as a flat engine, is more compact than more traditional diesel engines. This allowed us more room for features like an enlarged fuel tank or increased ammo storage. Additionally, a new automatic transmission is fitted, featuring four forward gears and one reverse gear.

AC-12 Cyprus
Supercarriers like the Robert F. Kennedy are expensive to operate, given their crew requirements and the cost of simply maintaining such massive vessels. On the other hand, to build a carrier that carries just 10 or 20 Harriers or F-35Bs can seem a bit absurd, considering the expenses involved in carrier operations. Thus, Michael Shipyards presents our first 'medium carrier' for the global defense market, carrying 46 airplanes and 4 helicopters. We chose a 915-foot hull, giving more than sufficient room for these aircraft; to improve the capabilities of the Cyprus, we've fitted it with 12 launchers for the P-700 Granit anti-ship missile (a large missile capable of destroying enemy carriers), along with five 8-cell Mk.6 VL systems for the SAM-97S, five SeaRAM point defense systems, and four Kashtan gun-missile point defense systems. Further, we have armored the flight deck with 2.5" of RHA steel to improve damage control.

BC-1 Naseby
The first battlecruiser design we have released to the global defense market is also the first such design in generations. We took an 874'-long hull, armed it with two Mk.11 18"/45 caliber twin turrets as its main battery, armored it with 6" (sides) to 11" of RHA steel (turret), inserted modern electronics (including the SAL-49 shipborne air search lidar) and weapons (including the SAM-97S SeaViper), and powered it with two A4W pressurized water nuclear reactors, providing sufficient power for the Naseby to travel at 35 knots. The Naseby features an external belt of 7" of RHA steel sloped at 20 degrees to provide increased protection; it extends from 6" below the waterline to the deck itself. Its bow is flared to improve its seakeeping capabilities, preventing water from washing over the bow (and possibly flooding turrets).

B-13 Bohemia
Many believe that the era of the big-gun battleship has long since passed, that aircraft, subs and missiles have taken its place. For those who disagree, we present the B-13 Bohemia, a 920.5' battleship. Armed with six Mk.11 18"/45 caliber twin turrets, it possesses a tremendous main battery. While it does need escorts for air defense, it is armed with some anti-air missile systems itself - each turret has one SeaRAM mounting on top; additionally there are 4 additional centerline SeaRAM mountings, two 5"/54 caliber DP guns, and four Mk.6 8-cell vertical launchers for the SAM-97S short-range SAM. The Bohemia features 6" (deck) to 22" (turrets) of RHA steel, and has an external belt of 16.1" RHA steel - sloped at 20 degrees for increased protection - that extends from 3' below the waterline up to the deck itself. For gunnery spotting, we include 7 RQ-2 Pioneer UAVs (one per turret, and an extra). To power this behemoth, we provide two A4W PWRs, which allow a maximum speed of 33.5 knots.
Displacement: 70972 tons (64384.7 tonnes)

OOC: Not only does the front turret tend to be unusable due to flooding, but the armor (except the deck armor) is generally useless against modern threats. Plus, like any other battleship, it's outranged by modern anti-ship missiles. Poor seakeeping abilities.
AS-709 Omega
Based on the revolutionary Alfa-class submarine, the Omega is a fast, deep-diving nuclear-powered submarine. It has two variable-diameter hulls, reducing its sonar signature and water resistance while increasing its maneuverability; the hulls are made from titanium alloys suitable for deep diving. The inner hull is composed of 6 watertight compartments; the center compartment is manned, while the other five are only accessible for maintenance. The center compartment also contains an escape capsule in the event of an accident.
The Omega is armed with one 1000mm torpedo tube for our Mk.8 Sea Serpent anti-carrier torpedo, along with four 660mm torpedo tubes for Type 65 650mm torpedoes (which have a larger warhead than 533mm torpedoes), RPK-7 Vorobei 650mm sub-launched cruise missiles, RPK-2 Viyuga 650mm anti-submarine stand-off missiles (which deliver torpedoes to enemy subs from far beyond the range of the enemy subs' torpedoes), Mk.48 ADCAP 533mm torpedoes, VA-111 Shkval 533mm supercavitating torpedoes (which travel, unguided, at incredibly fast speeds, making them practically underwater rockets) or UGM-109 Tomahawk sub-launched cruise missiles.
The Omega's control system, which automates a number of tasks traditionally handled by crewmembers allows for a far smaller crew size than competing submarines. It integrates the AN/BSY-2 from the Seawolf into the control system developed for the Alfa-class. Along with the rest of the sub, it is powered by an S6W nuclear reactor, with secondary propulsion from a Paxman 1900kW diesel engine, that drives two pump-jet propulsors (rather than the more traditional screws, which are easily detected on sonar). The Omega is also fitted with 2 photonics masts, based on those developed for the Virginia, instead of traditional periscopes, to increase its stealthiness.

PH-17 Typhoon
The PH-17 is a hydrofoil ocean patrol boat, designed for both high-speed chases of drug-runners and long-range pursuits of illegal trawlers. That may seem contradictory; however, the PH-17 has far more fuel storage than a typical hydrofoil, and a hydrofoil design that allows higher speeds than a typical OPV. The Typhoon can also serve as a light naval combatant, replacing some of its fuel with 6 Otomat Mk.2 Block IV antiship missiles or MILAS ASW missiles. In its standard role, however, it is armed with a 76mm DP gun (forward), a pair of AK-230 twin 30mm cannon (aft), and 2 NSVT or M2HB 12.7mm HMGs (centerline).

PT-1 Watson
With some assistance from Jason Munitions, we designed a patrol boat that could use the Mk.8. We realized it would need to be fast, so that it could get into range, and small, so that it would be hard to detect. We went with a cut-down version of the LC-8. The PT-1 carries two 1000mm torpedo tubes for the Mk.8D, along with an M2HB or NSVT heavy machine gun and an FIM-92 or Igla-1S short-range SAM. It has storage space for two spare torpedoes (mounted beside the launch tubes) and eight missiles for the SAM launcher. Powered by a pair of 16V 2000 N90 diesels, it can reach speeds of up to 52 knots when its hydrofoil is deployed. It is small enough to be disguised easily, and can be swiftly deployed from hiding places to take on large ships - especially with such a long engagement range. It was built using stealth principles, reducing its already-low RCS even further.

LC-8 Abbott
The Abbott is a unique concept for a landing craft. Inspired by Gotthard Sachsenberg and Hanns von Schertel's revolutionary VS8 design, it uses a hydrofoil to bring troops to shore. Powered by the Ruston 12RK 270 diesel, it can carry a 20-tonne cargo at speeds of up to 40 knots. It uses surface-piercing foils, like those of our Typhoon-class hydrofoil oceanic patrol vessel, to achieve such speeds. The cargo is offloaded from the rear of the LC-8.

DDH-30 Requin
The Requin is a large helicopter destroyer, designed principally for the anti-submarine role. It is a modern take on the 'cruiser-carrier' concept, using cheap, flexible helicopters instead of large, high-maintenance airplanes or cost-ineffective, inflexible VSTOL planes. Powered by 5 LM-2500-30 gas turbines, it carries 10 helicopters, including the SH-25 SeaVirgil - the large ASW helicopter we developed in collaboration with Boris Rotorcraft. The DDH-30 carries a 32-cell Mk.41 VLS mounting forward, capable of carrying the RUM-139 VL-ASROC, the Standard series of SAMs and ABMs, and the BGM-109 Tomahawk cruise missile, depending on mission. It also carries the RPK-2 actively-guided anti-sub rocket launcher, providing close-in anti-sub defense, among other weapon systems. The Requin carries two Rigid Inflatable Boats (RIBs) for divers, rescue operations, and similar roles, giving it further flexibility. It uses the provided AN/SPY-1F 'Frigate Aegis' to serve as an additional air defense asset, providing guidance for Standard series SAMs and ABMs.

PS-5 Rambler (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=579810)
Introduction: The Rambler is a revolutionary submarine for us, using three technologies for the first time in our designs - Air Independent Propulsion, which uses hydrogen fuel cells to provide almost totally silent propulsion, the Mk.42U VLS designed for the CM-8 Speargun small cruise missile, and the UAM-97 undersea anti-air missile, a modified AAM design that can be fired from ordinary torpedo tubes and used to attack small targets, from ASuW choppers to barges to coastal bunkers. This sub is designed for local defense, as a silent, nearly-undetectable weapons platform; it can also support naval offensives as a scout for enemy ships and subs, using its mast-launched UAVs in support of this mission. The MS-5 variant, which carries up to 24 additional cruise missiles in place of some decoys and torpedo tubes, can fire its weapons off more quickly than the PS-5, making it well-suited for coastal defense.
Hull: The Rambler is a twin-hull design, carrying its fuel and oxidizers between the hulls. Its stern planes are arranged in an 'X', allowing operation in depths as small as 25m. On the sail, we fit two photonics masts, antennas for the XR/UNR-8 submarine navigation I-band radar, FL1800U radar warning receiver and undersea communications systems, the TB-29 passive thin-line towed-array sail-mounted sonar (currently used on the SSN-774 Virginia-class sub), and the snorkel. Stealth is built into the design, from the use of photonics masts in place of periscopes to prismatic hull cross-sections and smoothly-faired transitions from hull to sail, along with extensive use of demagnetized and nonmagnetic materials in constructing the ship and its interior.
Sensors: The Rambler has two photonics masts, each fitted with a GPS, a laser rangefinder, a FLIR and modern high-resolution cameras, connected by fiber optic cables to the control center inside the pressure hull, and an aviation mast, capable of launching up to four EMT Aladin light recon drones (or similar drones). It uses the MS/USS-40U sonar suite, based on DBQS40 sonar suite found on the Type 212; the MS/USS-40U comprises hull- and sail-mounted passive sonars (the FAS-3 flank array and TB-29 thin-line towed array) and a mine detection sonar (the MOA 3070). The ISUS-90 in the control center integrates data from the various sensor systems to provide a coherent picture of the outside world.
Countermeasures: Countermeasures come in three types. First, inherent resistance to enemy sensors, provided by the stealthy, nonmagnetic design of the ship itself. Second, passive detection of enemy sensors, provided by the FL1800U radar warning receiver and MT-70 sonar intercept receiver. Third, active decoying of enemy sensors, provided by the Tau decoy launchers. In the PS-5, four launchers, each with 10 decoys, are fitted; in the MS-5, two launchers, each with 8 decoys, are fitted.
Propulsion: The Rambler's propulsion consists of two separate mechanisms. First, for low-speed operations, the sub features 6 large 150kW polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) hydrogen fuel cells, which convert hydrogen and oxygen into electrical power and water. To prevent a short-circuit or gas cross-over, a thin, 50 micrometer membrane is used; we chose to use a membrane derived from polybenzimidazole, which does not need liquid humidification (unlike Nafion, the typical membrane for PEM fuel cells) and can thus operate at higher, more efficient temperatures, up to 220 degrees C. Second, for high-speed operations, the Rambler uses a more conventional diesel-electric motor generating 1700kW and driving a seven-bladed skewback propellor specially designed to reduce cavitation while preserving thrust efficiency.
Weaponry: The PS-5 has eight 660mm torpedo tubes in two compartments, one behind the other. Each compartment can carry up to 8 conventional torpedoes, 9 supercavitating torpedoes, 10 anti-sub standoff missiles or sub-launched cruise missiles, or 12 naval mines or UAM-97 sub-launched missiles (3 missiles per tube). The MS-5 replaces the two torpedo rooms with a single room about two-thirds the size of both rooms combined, with six 660mm torpedo tubes carrying up to 12 conventional torpedoes, 13 supercavitating torpedoes, 15 anti-sub standoff missiles or sub-launched cruise missiles, or 18 naval mines or UAM-97 sub-launched wire-guided missiles. It also contains a 16-cell Mk.42U undersea vertical launch system (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14402600&postcount=96); each cell can contain a CM-8 cruise missile or up to 3 UAM-97 wire-guided missiles. An additional 24 naval mines can be deployed from external mounts.

HS-12
Introduction: The HS-12 is a light surface combatant, a sloop or corvette. It is designed with stealth principles in mind, in order to throw off active radar seekers on sea-skimmer missiles and to reduce the likelihood of being detected by hostile patrol planes. It is capable of operating two SH-4 maritime patrol helicopters, giving the HS-12 extensive anti-submarine warfare capability. The recommended fit is 16 CM-8 cruise missiles and 24 SAM-97S short-range SAMs, along with 6 Mk.90 ASuW torpedoes and 6 CS/TD-7 torpedo decoys.
Stealthy hull: The HS-12's hull is distinctive. Built from carbon fiber-reinforced plastic to reduce its magnetic signature, the HS-12 is designed without right angles and perfectly vertical surfaces where possible. The ship uses a tumblehome hull, in which the beam at the uppermost deck is notably smaller than the maximum beam, which significantly reduces the ship's RCS.
Weapons: The HS-12 is armed as follows: in the 'A' position, a retractable mount for the NG-31 (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?showtopic=5635&view=findpost&p=3482395) 90mm/55-caliber naval gun; in the 'B' position, one 16-cell Mk.42S VLS mount rated at 20 tonnes, and three 8-cell Mk.6 VLS mounts, each rated at 2 tonnes; at the centerline, two triple 350mm torpedo tube mounts, forming the Mk.50 SVTT system, which can fire CS/TD-7 torpedo decoys or Mk.90 lightweight anti-submarine torpedoes; and two MG-15 15x124mm machine guns. Additionally, the SH-4 can carry up to 2000kg of munitions.
Sensors and countermeasures: The HS-12 is fitted with a VE/HAS-117 hull-mounted active sonar, an XR/SNR-397 I-band shipborne navigation radar, and a CS/SSR-471 (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?showtopic=5586&view=findpost&p=3480137) D-band phased-array surface search radar, along with a MS/SAL-49 naval air search lidar. In addition, it is fitted with fire control systems for the CM-8, the SAM-97S, the NG-31, and the Mk.50 systems. As for countermeasures, it is fitted with radar and radio intercept systems developed by Colin Systems, along with the CS/TD-7 torpedo decoy and chaff and flare launchers.
Combat management system: The HS-12 is equipped with a node for the BR/NCN-3 naval combat network, which integrates data from other ships fitted with the NCN-3. The NCN-3 also helps the crew manage and control the ship's operations, integrating the various fire control systems.
Propulsion: The HS-12 uses CODAG (Combined diesel and gas) propulsion, in which two diesel engines and a gas turbine are used to power two controllable-pitch propeller shafts. This allows high-speed travel (using the turbine and diesels), along with lower-speed, longer-range, more fuel-efficient cruising (using just the diesels). An LM2500+ gas turbine, generating 30.5MW, and two TB92 marine diesels, each generating 8.14MW, are used.

This won't make 2 km/s at the current mass ratio. The Uragan was supposed to be 13 tonnes and that was just a pretty basic manned ASAT job. As a bomber with two CAV type thingies, call it closer to ~25 tonnes and you should be in the right area.

Policies
I: Consequences of Attacks on C. of DC facilities
Please note that the C. of DC now owns and operates three shipyards in Cukarica, located in Paxi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paxi) (Paxos), Kérkira (Corfu) and Préveza (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preveza_Prefecture). Any accidental attacks on these facilities will result in immediate cancellation of current orders and seizure of undelivered orders for auction; any intentional attacks (that is, attacks directly targeting the shipyards, with intent to damage or destroy them, or the arms being built there) launched without warning will also result in a ban on sales to you or your alliance for the duration of the conflict, and in potential lifetime bans from other storefronts (depending on how willing they are to tolerate a country that attacked a fellow storefront). If our losses are compensated, we may be willing to end this ban, and would attempt to discourage retaliatory action against you. We're forgiving, but others may not be.
This policy will stand for any shipyards or factories we own.
II: Domestic Production Rights
If you wish to acquire the right to produce any of our weapons in your own facilities, we have a range of options available.
First, if we are attempting to win a contract advertised to the general arms industry community, we will simply forgo the standard small reduction in cost we build into our bids.
Second, if you permit us to acquire factories or shipyards in your country, we will maintain the current employment contracts for the duration of time it will take to fulfill your order (or one year, if building the requested munitions would require less than one year's time), attempt to build as much as possible at facilities we've acquired in your country, and, if we find it necessary to sell the facilities in your country, offer them to your government first.
Third, if you wish to produce a set number of units in your own country, we will make that available, with a slight surcharge if you came to us.
Fourth, if you wish to acquire the design to any of our weapons, we will consider reasonable offers, provided that they do not in any way inhibit our right to continue selling the weapons to whoever we choose.
III: Limitations on Sales of Nuclear Weapons
In order to ensure that nuclear weapons are sold as part of a sound strategic deterrent, rather than for uses that would embarrass the reputation of the Confederacy, we will not sell nuclear weapons to any groups currently involved in warfare, and will demand that any prospective purchaser of nuclear weapons explain their intent behind the purchase - what their deterrence strategy is and how the nuclear weapons we would be selling would fit into that deterrence strategy.
Don't think anyones suggested it so the draftroom (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?act=idx) is a good place to get your ideas/designs looked over to avoid further mess ups like above.

CM-8 Speargun (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=579809)
Introduction: The Speargun is a variant on the famous Kh-35 'Harpoonski,' designed for launch from a torpedo tube or underwater VLS. It encapsulates a slightly enlarged Kh-35 with a modified guidance system in a small container designed for submerged launch. The missile has a slightly larger warhead and slightly longer range than the Kh-35, and uses the Kh-59MK's 36MT turbofan.
CM-8 guidance: The Speargun uses active radar homing, inertial guidance and GPS guidance to get to the target, flying as a sea-skimming missile; when it nears the target, it switches to terminal guidance, using home-to-jam and the radar homing head to guide it to the target.

AAM-100 Tiercel
Introduction: The AAM-100 Tiercel is a long-range air-to-air missile, capable of engaging targets up to 250km out. It is designed around the VE/AAR-71 AESA radar used on the F-21 Anteater.
Missile frame: The missile itself resembles a cross between the AIM-120D and AIM-54, with 4 wings and 4 fins. The wings and fins are clipped before launch, permitting the AAM-100 to be fired from an F-22's internal weapons bay; they fold out to their full extent after launch. This feature is included on all missiles of the AAM-100 series. The SAM-100 is straked, improving its maneuverability.
Guidance: Initially, the AAM-100 uses semi-active radar homing, receiving targeting data from the VE/AAR-71 prior to launch. During flight, it uses inertial guidance, corrected by information from the launch platform and from other sources that can data link with the missile. Finally, as the Tiercel approaches its target, it uses an active radar and an IR seeker head to provide terminal guidance. At sufficiently short ranges, the Tiercel is a fire-and-forget missile, using active radar and IR guidance exclusively. In addition to the use of two different systems for terminal guidance, both mounted on the missile itself, the AAM-100 features a home-on-jam mode. Any target that attempts to use radar jamming to block the AAM-100's radar will thus find it counterproductive, as the missile itself will simply track towards the source of the jamming. The seeker head of the AAM-100 is the XR/MAS-105 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14359642&postcount=41).
Propulsion: The AAM-100 is powered by a solid-fuel rocket engine, propelling it to a max speed of Mach 6 at its max altitude of 27km. The AAM-100, if fired at long range (165-250km), will climb to cruise at 27km, gaining kinetic energy, then, as it nears the terminal phase, dive on the target; at shorter ranges, it will use its on-board computer to calculate an intercept course and follow it to the target. To allow for quick course corrections, the AAM-100 uses skid-to-turn.
Variations: The AAM-100 platform can be used for a variety of different missiles. These include the SAM-100 surface-to-air missile, the ARM-100 anti-radar missile, the AGM-100 air-to-ground missile, the ultra-long-range AAM-100LR, and the AGM-100C cluster munitions dispenser (which deposits 100 small shaped-charge BLU-97/B submunitions).
Guidance: SARH, INS; AGM-100 incorporates GPS; AGM-100C removes SARH.
Terminal guidance: IR, active radar, home-on-jam; AGM-100C - none.

NG-31
Introduction: A medium-caliber naval gun was desired for our new ship designs. After initially attempting to repurpose a tank gun for the task, we ended up choosing a simpler 90mm/55-caliber design, the NG-31.
Gun: Fitted with the JM/GFD-310 gun fire director, which features an XR/GLR-362 9GHz X-band gun-laying radar and a JT/GFC-40 gun fire control computer, the NG-31 can take in data from sensor systems throughout ships it is installed on. It uses an autoloader and modular magazines containing 20 shells (or 10 ERGM shells) to achieve a rate of fire of 50rpm. The barrel is water-cooled; distilled water is preferred to avoid damaging the barrel.
Ammunition: Ammunition is stowed in modular magazines capable of carrying 20 shells (or 10 ERGM shells). Three modular automatic feed magazines are used, one for propellants and two for shells, allowing operators to fire either of two different types of shells immediately. The following shell types are available: HE (high explosive, with a variable fuse), Mk.67 ERGM (extended range guided munition, using GPS & inertial guidance), Mk.68 DART (driven ammunition reduced time of flight, which is a sub-caliber guided projectile fitted with canards and used in the antimissile role), and illumination.
Mk.67 ERGM: The Mk.67 is a 12-caliber rocket assisted projectile. It uses EX-99 propellant, and is guided by GPS and an inertial guidance system. It is fitted with a solid-propellant rocket that burns for 7 seconds.
Barrel length: 4.95m
Weight: barrel - 1110kg, gun - 2990kg, feed - 1900kg, total (loaded) - 9000kg; HE shell - 12.45kg, Mk.67 ERGM shell - 25kg, Mk.68 DART shell - 9kg, illumination - 12kg
Muzzle velocity: HE - 850m/s, ERGM - 600m/s, DART - 1000m/s, illumination - 866m/s
Range: HE, illumination - 4km at 85 degrees elevation (for AA), 8.1km effective, 18.5km max (45-degree elevation); ERGM - 37km; DART - 5km
Shell types: HE, ERGM, DART, illumination
Price: $1250000 (NG-31), $975 (HE), $20000 (ERGM), $15000 (DART), $950 (illumination)

EJ-FD-10 Flat-10 diesel
Introduction: Initially, we had proposed a flat-10 diesel engine for the T-11 tank series, but it was rejected in favor of a Guarita engine. We refined the concept for the next major design, the AICV-34 series, but that, too, was cancelled. So we simplified the concept, and now present the EJ-FD-10 flat-10 diesel engine to the world.
Cylinders: The FD-10 features 10 cylinders in two banks of five. They are arranged as a 180-degree V, so every opposing pair of cylinders shares a crank pin.
Other features: The FD-10 is a multifuel engine. It uses twin turbochargers to boost performance.

SC-15 Neptune
Introduction: Based on the C-15 airframe, the SC-15 is designed to support naval operations by finding and sinking enemy submarines well before they get into range of friendly assets, and by scouting for enemy ships. Its capacious fuel tanks permit it to loiter over the coast for up to 13 hours at a time without in-flight refueling, and sufficient food is stocked for three eight-hour shifts in the sky.
C-15 Excellence: Like the C-15, the SC-15 retains significant, though lessened, short-field capability - it can loiter unrefueled for 10 hours over the oceans after taking off from an airfield just 1.2km long! It also retains the four TE-T-52 uprated turbofans, generating a total thrust of 510kN (114640 lbf; 52000kgf), that power the C-15's excellent short-field performance. Finally, like the C-15, the SC-15 uses the VE/DIC-6L large directional IR countermeasure, the AN/APQ-116 terrain-following radar (for navigation), the AN/ALE-24 chaff launcher (to spoof radar-guided munitions), the AN/ALQ-117 active jammer (to directly spoof radars), and AN/ALE-20 flare launcher (to further throw off IR-guided weapons).
Different on the Inside: The cargo bay of the C-15 has been radically changed. Significant sections of it have been taken over for fuel tanks. What remains is a bomb bay toward the rear, and a 'mission bay' complete with modern computers programmed to help make sense of the data brought in by the SC-15's integrated radar and sonar systems. Here, 8 workstations are present, along with two full-size fridges for food storage. Further, six cots are installed, allowing for three 8-hour shifts - two on duty, one off.
Eyes on the Sea: The SC-15 carries the AN/APY-10, a multifunction radar system that allows it to track up to 256 targets at a time. In surface search mode, the AN/APY-10 scans up to 370km out; in periscope detect mode, the system can find small targets (like sub periscopes) at ranges of up to 60km, even in high sea states. In synthetic aperture radar mode, the system can track and image stationary targets up to 370km out; in inverse synthetic aperture radar mode, the AN/APY-10 can track and image moving targets up to 370km out. To detect submarine targets, the SC-15 carries the AN/AQS-13F dipping sonar, the XR/MAD-1 towed magnetic anomaly detector, and a 30-tube sonobuoy launcher on either side of the fuselage.
Loaded to Bear: The SC-15 has a 13500kg bomb bay, with nine 1500kg pylons for torpedoes, missiles, depth charges and bombs. It also has four wing-mounted 1000kg external pylons, two on each wing.

C-15A Minerva
Introduction: Based on the C-15 airframe, the C-15A is designed to support air combat operations by identifying enemy aircraft and missiles well before they get into range of friendly assets, then directing attacks on enemy airpower. Its capacious fuel tanks permit it to loiter over a front for up to 13 hours at a time without in-flight refueling, and sufficient food is stocked for three eight-hour shifts in the sky.
C-15 Excellence: Like the C-15, the C-15A retains significant, though lessened, short-field capability - it can loiter unrefueled for 10 hours over a target after taking off from an airfield just 1km long!

What remains is a 'mission bay' complete with modern computers programmed to help make sense of the data brought in by the C-15A's integrated radar, IFF, ELINT and COMINT systems. Here, 12 workstations are present, along with three full-size fridges for food storage and four stations for air combat controllers. Further, ten cots are installed, allowing for three 8-hour shifts - two on duty, one off.
Eyes in the Sky: The C-15A carries the Erieye AESA radar mounted above the fuselage, an active phased array radar with an instrument range of 450km and a high-clutter detection range of 350km. In other words, in clear skies, the Erieye can detect targets up to 450km away; at low altitudes, under heavy jamming, or in other situations with lots of radar clutter, the radar can detect targets up to 350km away. The Erieye has high-altitude coverage, able to detect targets at altitudes of up to 22km, and can be used for naval or air search purposes. As an AESA radar, it features a high track rate, rapid frequency jumping (which reduces the impact of enemy jammers and radar warning receivers), and fairly low maintenance. In addition to the radar, the Minerva features integrated IFF, electronic intelligence, and communications intelligence systems, allowing a comprehensive view of the aerial battlefield.

Unfortunately, The Confederacy of Defense Corporations is, by the terms of the agreements that formed it, required to maintain a controlling interest in its own affairs. Therefore, it is forbidden for individual members of the Confederacy to sell sufficient stock for such an acquisition to be made.
Furthermore, we resent the attack on our independence. The Confederacy is not a single, unified state; it is a healthy consortium of rival corporations, and we take pride in our decentralized system. We are no government, and loathe the thought of being such. Our existence as independent companies is our prima facia goal; we are nothing if we are bought out.
My 'country' isn't a country; it's these companies. This allows me to limit myself to designing, offering, and selling products; if I need to cut back (due to a lack of time), I can just passively sell products. Thus, to sell the company would be losing my independence.

TE-T-219 Turbofan
Introduction: This is a variant on the F119 turbofan that powered the F-22. It features minor improvements in weight, due to advances in metallurgy. Like the F119, it uses a twin-spool, counter-rotating compressor, annular combustors, and an axial-flow counter-rotating turbine.
Thrust-vectoring: Also like the F119, the TE-T-219 is a thrust-vectoring turbofan, with movable nozzles capable of directing thrust at a pitch of +20.25 degrees, enhancing its maneuverability.
Weight: 20.5 tonnes
Thrust: 15950kgf (156.4 kN)
Thrust-weight: 7.6:1
Nozzle: 2D thrust-vectoring nozzle
Price: $4 million
TE-T-44
Tsien Engine's TE-T-44, based on the GE TF-34-10 turbofan, is an axial-flow, twin-shaft high-bypass turbofan; it uses four core booster stages (rather than three in the TF-34-10) behind the fan, and nine high-pressure compression stages, to boost the core power, and thus the thrust. Thus, we can get 9000kgf static thrust on takeoff, which allows for the tremendous lift needed for short-field operations.

SS-13 Confederation
Introduction: The SS-13 is a large, fast supply ship, using nuclear power to extend its endurance. It is designed for underway replenishment, and is capable of replenishing up to four ships at once.
Hull: We went with a fairly conventional, if enlarged, hull form for a fast combat supply ship. Hangar space is present for three CH-46E or similar-sized helicopters for vertical replenishment.
Storage: The SS-13 can carry marine diesel fuel, aviation fuel, bottled gas, ordnance, water, and chilled/frozen stowage in sizable quantities.
Propulsion: For maximum endurance, the SS-13 is propelled by two A4W nuclear reactors; it therefore only needs refueling every 23 years, when the reactor core needs to be replaced.
Protection: The SS-13 carries the UDAV-1 anti-sub system, 2 SRBOC chaff launchers, and an AN/SLQ-32(V)3 ECM set, as well as two Mk.42S VLS mounts (each pre-loaded with 144 SAM-97S SAMs) and two Kashtan CIWS mounts. To protect against speedboats, four KPV heavy machine guns are fitted.
Length: 300m
Beam: 42m (extreme beam)
Draft: 16m
Displacement: 80000 tonnes
Propulsion: 2 A4W reactors driving two turbines and two shafts; 194MW total
Speed: 50km/h
Stowage: 9.3 million gallons of marine diesel fuel, 12.4 million gallons of aviation fuel, 2450 tonnes of ordnance, 450 tonnes of chilled/frozen stowage, 100000 gallons of water, 1000 units of bottled gas.
Aviation: 3 CH-46E
Systems: UDAV-1 anti-sub system, SAL-49 air search lidar, AN/SPS-67 G-band air/surface search radar, AN/SPS-64(V)9 navigation radar, AN/SLQ-32(V)3, two SRBOC chaff launchers, AN/SQS-56 sonar (for UDAV-1)

CD-22 Maize
Introduction: This is a light, cheap, modern biplane used for agricultural roles. It is on the small side, but can carry a useful load of up to 800kg.
Lift: The CD-22 uses the PT6A-60AG turboprop, which generates 783kW (1050hp), to provide the power needed for takeoff. It has a longer upper wing than its lower wing, and leading edge slats that extend if the airspeed drops below 70km/h, giving it good short-field performance and effectively no stall speed.
Load: The CD-22 can be fitted with a chemical tank for application of pesticides and insecticides, serving as a crop-duster; alternatively, as the CD-22T, it can carry a hopper filled with fertilizers (like superphosphates) for topdressing. A water tank can be fitted, allowing the CD-22W variant to serve as a light water bomber, helping fight fires. Finally, the WCD-22 weather plane carries a Stepped-Frequency Microwave Radiometer and a launcher for dropsondes, allowing it to survey weather conditions.

You will need to produce 5" shells, 30mm rounds, SH-60 (or equivalently-sized) helicopters, RIM-116 RAM missiles for the SeaRAM point defense systems, and missiles capable of being stored in the Mk.41 VLS yourself, along with whatever bombs, torpedoes, depth charges or antiship missiles you intend for your SH-25s to operate. Please note that the designs for all of these are readily available.
[OOC] Real-life equipment is considered buildable by all. Thus, we often don't include it, since you can build it yourself. We do include any of our own equipment (in this case, the SH-25 & the SAM-97S short-range SAMs).

AC-15 Telemachus
Introduction: Based on the C-15 airframe, the AC-15 is designed to support combat operations in environments in which one has air superiority. Its capacious fuel tanks permit it to loiter over a target zone for up to 8 hours, while its weapons pack a devastating punch.
An Airframe for Attack: The C-15 is designed for point-to-point transport of cargo. Its fuel tanks are moderately sizable, permitting sufficient fuel for a 6-hour flight at cruising speed. However, air support may be necessary for longer than six hours at a time, so we added new fuel tanks in the cargo bay to increase the AC-15's endurance. The C-15 is unarmored; armor would waste fuel, add weight, and rarely be of use. The AC-15, however, features armor at key points, since it is liable to be in combat for hours. The weapons bay on the left side of the plane, and the underside of the cockpit, is armored with 20mm plates of ceramic-titanium composite armor, lined with a multilayer Kevlar spall shield.
The Tools of War: Finally and most obviously, the AC-15 is armed, whereas the C-15 is not. The AC-15 has six hardpoints, three on each wing; the outermost hardpoint on each wing mounts either an AN/ASQ-228 targeting pod or an AN/ALQ-131 ECM pod, while the other four hardpoints can each carry up to 250kg in bombs, ATGMs, fuel pods, or short-range IR-guided AAMs. Further back from the wing, on the left side of the plane, we mount an AMOS (breech-loaded 120mm Advanced MOrtar System) and four Bushmaster III 35mm/50 caliber cannon. The AN/APQ-180 synthetic aperture radar and AN/AAQ-26 forward-looking IR sensor, in addition to the standard electronics of a C-15, are fitted as well, in order to find targets to attack.
C-15 Excellence: Like the C-15, the AC-15 retains significant, though lessened, short-field capability - it can loiter for 6 hours over a target after taking off from an airfield just 800m long! It also retains the four TE-T-52 uprated turbofans, generating a total thrust of 510kN (114640 lbf; 52000kgf), that power the C-15's excellent short-field performance.

ICT-11 Leopard
Introduction: Based on the chassis of our T-11 Sao Paulo, the ICT-11 infantry combat vehicle allows the deployment of 9-person squads into combat in a well-armored platform.
Protection: The Leopard uses the T11ICT package, with layers of DU and steel, and diamond-reinforced titanium boride ceramics, forming a sandwich of composite armor, with Kevlar spall lining on the inside and two Trophy APS mounts on the outside to defend the vehicle. The IFT-11's armor has, at its most-protected point, an RHAe of 1650mm. The Trophy Active Protection System tracks incoming projectiles with a millimeter-wave radar and intercepts them. Finally, the CREW-2 EW suite is used to protect against remotely-detonated bombs.
Propulsion: The ICT-11 is propelled by the 1119kW GD883 diesel, mounted behind the driver in the center of the vehicle, with auxiliary power provided by a 30kW fuel cell and Li+ polymer batteries, mounted on either side of the driver's compartment.
Armament: A CROWS weapons station is fitted to the top of the vehicle, and can be fired from inside the ICT-11. In addition, the rear of the tank is fitted with firing ports for rifles, permitting suppressive (if inaccurate) fire against enemy targets). Finally, a twin launcher for the Kornet ATGM is fitted atop the remote weapons station.

IFT-11 Patriota
Introduction: Based on the chassis of our upcoming T-11 Sao Paulo, the IFT-11 infantry fighting vehicle allows the deployment of up to 5 troops into combat in a well-armored, well-armed platform.
Propulsion: The IFT-11 uses the Guarita DO66-2S99 opposed-piston diesel engine, a compact yet powerful engine. While it does require the use of distilled water as well as diesel fuel, it is nonetheless more space-efficient than a conventional diesel of equivalent power, and much more fuel-efficient than a gas turbine engine.
Protection: The IFT-11 uses the T11IFV package, with layers of DU & steel forming a sandwich around diamond-reinforced titanium boride ceramics, Kevlar spall lining, and two Trophy APS mounts, to defend the vehicle. The IFT-11's armor has, at its most-protected point, an RHAe of 1650mm. The Trophy Active Protection System is a hard-kill system, tracking incoming projectiles and intercepting them with shotgun blasts. Also fitted are two twin VIRSS smoke grenade launchers, one on either side of the front of the turret. Finally, the CREW-2 electronic warfare system, meant to jam remotely-controlled bombs, is installed.
Armament: The IFT-11 has a two-person turret armed with a Bushmaster III 35mm/50-cal. cannon, a coaxial 14.5x114mm HMG, and two twin launchers for the Kornet ATGM, one on either side of the turret. The fire control system integrates a laser rangefinder and thermal night sights; the gunner has front and side periscopes, while the driver has two forward periscopes, one right periscope and one left periscope.
A versatile design: The IFT-11 design can be modified in a variety of ways. Prominent variants include the IFT-11C command vehicle, which replaces the turret with a remote weapons station armed with a KPV HMG, adds an advanced communications suite and replaces the troop compartment with a compartment for 4 staff; the IFT-11R recovery vehicle, fitted with a 35-tonne crane and 29.5-tonne winch, along with power tools and room for four engineers; the IFT-11L light tank variant, which replaces the turret with a three-man turret for the Mk.14 105mm/50-caliber ETC gun (with coaxial KPV HMG and roof-mounted remote weapons station for another KPV, along with two twin VIRSS smoke-grenade launchers); the IFT-11M mortar vehicle (which replaces the Bushmaster III, Kornets and HMG with an AMOS 120mm twin-barrel mortar); and the IFT-11E, which replaces one twin launcher for Kornet (and six Kornet missiles) with the AN/VLQ-7 optical sight jamming system.

GT-11 Gaucho
Introduction: Based on the chassis of the T-11 Sao Paulo, the GT-11 Gaucho is a self-propelled gun, carrying a 155mm/57-caliber howitzer.
Armament: The primary weapon of the Gaucho is the Mk.21 155mm/57-caliber howitzer, designed for long-range fire support using rocket-assisted or base-bleed projectiles. A variety of rounds, including the Mk.100 Kusanagi guided artillery shell, are available. As secondary armament, the Gaucho features a roof-mounted remote weapons station with a KPV 14.5x114mm heavy machine gun.
Protection: The T1HL armor package provides significant protection on the top, the front of the turret and hull, with lessened protection elsewhere. It features composite armor, consisting of layers of steel and depleted uranium forming a sandwich around titanium boride ceramic plates, reinforced with synthetic diamond for added toughness, and it includes Kevlar spall lining. The GT-11's armor has, at its most-protected point, an RHAe of 127mm.
Systems: The GT-11 features GPS navigation, an autoloader, an internal fire control computer, an overpressure NBC system and a boiling vessel/teakettle. The autoloader allows firing rates of up to 7 rounds/minute. The GT-11C command vehicle replaces the Mk.21 with an ARTHUR artillery-hunting radar, while the GT-11S supply vehicle replaces the Mk.21 with storage for up to 122 shells.

ADT-11 Malaya
Introduction: Based on the chassis of our upcoming T-11 Sao Paulo, the ADT-11 air defense vehicle combines the SAM-97 IR-guided SAM with four 30mm cannon. This combination of cannon and missiles gives the ADT-11 more options for destroying enemy air assets.
Target acquisition: The ADT-11 uses the XR/GAR-145 ground-based air search radar system, which uses small J-band tracking (turret top) and E-band acquisition (turret front) AESA radars to acquire (at ranges of up to 35km) and track targets at altitudes of 16km up to 20km away, as well as targets flying at altitudes as low as 15m up to 1km away. The XR/GAR-145 can track up to 25 targets at a time, and engage up to 3 at a time. Further, we integrated optronics systems (based on those of the MiG-35's IRST) and laser rangefinders to help guide the SAM-97 missiles, allowing detection, acquisition and tracking of airborne targets from up to 20km out.
Target destruction: The ADT-11 is armed with two 2A38M twin 30mm cannon mounts; mounted on either side of the cannons is a twin mount for the SAM-97. The mount for the cannon and missiles can rotate through 360 degrees. Eight additional SAM-97 missiles and 2000 shells (10 API-T, 10 HEI-T, 990 HEI, 990 API) for the cannons are stored.
Protection: The ADT-11 uses the T11L package, with composite armor (consisting of layers of steel and depleted uranium forming a sandwich around titanium boride ceramic plates, reinforced with synthetic diamond for added toughness), Kevlar spall lining, blocks of explosive reactive armor, and two Trophy APS mounts, to defend the vehicle. The ADT-11's armor has, at its most-protected point, an RHAe of 1250mm. The Trophy Active Protection System tracks incoming projectiles on millimeter-wave radar and intercepts them.
Propulsion: The ADT-11 is propelled by the 1119kW GD883 diesel, mounted behind the driver in the center of the vehicle, with auxiliary power provided by a 30kW fuel cell in the rear of the vehicle.

T-11B Bridgelayer
Introduction: Using the chassis of the T-11, the T-11B carries a bridge that permits crossing of 72-tonne vehicles over 28.3 meter barriers at speeds of up to 14km/h.
Protection: The T-11B is more lightly armored than the T-11, using the T11BL armor package. Nonetheless, its armor, consisting of layers of RHA steel and aluminum, does provide decent protection, with maximum armor coverage of 150mm RHAe.
Bridge: The 30-tonne bridge the T-11B carries folds out into three times the vehicle's length. It can withstand the impact of up to 5000 crossings by 72-tonne vehicles, and can be deployed and retrieved up to 2000 times, without needing major repairs, and can be deployed in five minutes.

XR/MAS-105 Missile Active-radar Seeker
Designed for the AAM-100, the XR/MAS-105, based on the Agat 9B-1388, provides both semi-active and active radar homing. In flight, the XR/MAS-105 serves as a passive receiver for semi-active radar homing; in the terminal phase, it uses an active radar to guide the missile to its target. It has home-on-jam capability, meaning that, if jammed, it will attempt to find the source of the jamming and guide the missile towards the jammer, if in range.
Mass: 52kg
Diameter: 355mm

Re: Procurement
Your $820.6 million contract is confirmed. The AC-12 will take some time, due to another, larger order; we should nonetheless have it completed in 15 months, manned with a skeleton crew culled from recently-retired navy personnel. We suggest that, due to the length of time it will take to build, you split the $820 million you will pay for the ship into five equal payments, one every 3 months, for your convenience. You will need to procure or build your own air group to operate from your Cyprus, except for the SH-25 & SH-62 we provide.
The SWAT team packages will be delivered to your country by air freight tomorrow, accompanied by a weapons technician from Smith Armory who will instruct your trainers in the use and care of the weapons we're shipping.

OOC:
OOC - I realized that my battleship and battlecruiser are priced too low for ships of their size and armament. Rather than increase the price, I will model this as decreased quality - particularly in the armor, which will perform less well than expected if hit (as it is cheaper, but of lower quality, than standard battleship armor). Further, I will model the B-13's low price as in part due to a rushed design process - thus, the front gun turret on the B-13 will tend to be too flooded to fire in anything worse than calm seas.
This is not acceptable,please calculate how much will be the full expense and ill pay
Defense Corporations
03-01-2009, 17:12
OOC - see TG. It would probably be another $14 billion ($1 billion more per ship on average; the battleships will be higher-priced than the battlecruisers) - armor quality is expensive, and battleships and battlecruisers themselves are particularly expensive. If we go that route, I'll edit it into the original costs.
MG-15 HMG
Introduction: Featuring significant commonality with the GL-10 automatic grenade launcher, the MG-15 is chambered for the 15x124mm 'heavy' round. It is designed to replace older heavy machine guns, particularly the KPV.
Operation: The MG-15 uses a gas operated short-stroke piston action, in which the piston moves separately from the bolt group, pushing the bolt via a connecting rod. The motion of the piston is arrested early, reducing the total mass of recoiling parts and thereby increasing accuracy.
Special features: The MG-15 features an IR night-sight, along with standard iron sights. It can be mounted on a tripod for ground use, or fitted in place of other heavy machine guns on vehicles. Its light weight allows it to be used by even 2-man teams.
Specifications
Mass: 21kg
Length: 1.8m
Width: 60cm
Height: gun alone - 20cm; with tripod - 60cm
Crew: 2
Rate of fire: cyclic - 350rpm; sustained (without barrel changes) - 60rpm
Action: gas-operated short-stroke piston
Caliber: 15x124mm
Ammo feed: weapon-mountable ammunition can (either side)

OOC - armor is now of normal quality, rather than low-quality. Seakeeping abilities of the B-13 remain inadequate; this was unfortunately necessary, given the original design requirement for a battleship with six turrets and the limitations of existing shipyards.

We recommend that you operate a single Sea King ASaC.7, two EH101 AEW helicopters, or two Kamov Ka-31 AEW helicopters in place of the two Merlins we normally suggest, as the F-7N works best, like any other fighter, with support from airborne early warning helicopters.

Re: B-125 Trilobite
To buy 75 B-125 Trilobites would cost just $11.25 billion. However, you would also need to buy a Delta-IV or other rocket of similar payload to launch each Trilobite, every time you launched it. The B-125 itself is reusable, but its launcher generally would not be.

Re: B-125
My design team expects the B-125 to be good for at least 10 launches, and probably several more. We are dismayed that the quality of the tile-structure combined heat-shield was sacrificed somewhat as a cost-saving measure; we planned to develop and use higher-quality metals, made from newer alloys, for the structural part of the heat-shield.
Custom paint jobs are perfectly acceptable for the planes, with no extra charge. Unfortunately, we do not yet sell launchers, so you'd have to arrange that yourself.

Please have your payments and commissioning crews ready in time. What do you plan to name your ships?
As for yearly orders, we generally do not wish to commit ourselves to limiting our production lines to select customers. We are willing to negotiate a domestic production license agreement of some sort, or for us to own production lines in your nation, with the proviso that we use them, when you request, to produce new equipment for you. Alternatively, simply return annually to us and choose what suits your needs best. We wouldn't want to tie you down to specific, potentially outdated equipment; it would reflect poorly on us.
Still another alternative is for us to become your 'preferred supplier' of munitions. We would have appropriate subsidiary companies within the Confederacy produce, on request, munitions (such as missiles, bullets, rockets, shells, bombs, torpedoes, etc.) for your military. We would serve as an alternate production line for you through such an agreement, though we would strongly recommend that you make local factories available to us if such an arrangement were implemented.
OOC - annual orders both mess up my sales figures and needlessly tie your budget down to my designs, when there may be (and probably are) better ones out there.
As for 'preferred supplier,' that means we'd build whatever design of bomb, missile, torpedo, shell, bullet, rocket, or other munition you request (as long as you, we, or RL has the design), for the appropriate cost. This doesn't tie you down to my specific equipment, but instead gives you more production capacity for munitions (assuming they can get to your country in time).

OOC (out of context; refers to when I am speaking as myself, not as the C. of DC) - I'm getting my design critiqued by the NS Draftroom, which is an off-site board that reviews designs, and don't want to sell it until I've gotten some consensus on what to do with the R-25 rifle that is at the core of the Basic SWAT Package.

OOC: the CH-25 itself is the troop carrier. I'll set this one 20 months after the first purchase order, since you'd need some time to familiarize your navy with the AS-709 before committing to it in such numbers as you have.
However, I'm confused by your CM-39 requests. How many of each type do you want?

Finally, to fire the SCM-39, CM-39 and CM-39L, and UCM-39, you will need to have modifications done to surface ships, aircraft, and subs, respectively. We recommend that we do the modification work; we will simply need information about the launch platforms you want modified. We recommend cruiser-sized ships for the SCM-39s, large bombers for the CM-39 and CM-39Ls, and SSGNs or SSBNs for the UCM-39s.

Re: Modification work
First, you would need to order an MC-16; however, we should be able to refit it, replacing the forward Mk.41 61-cell VLS mount with two 16-cell Mk.12 large VLS mounts and adding a Mk.131 FCS for the Mk.12. You would thus be able to fire 32 SCM-39s from your new Fort Shaw. The ship would take 20 months to build and modify, and would be delivered from Corfu Yard 4. You would need to pay $1.6 billion for it; we would not charge extra for the modifications. If you would
Second, the Omega has no VLS. It will be far easier to modify the Crius Gopher; how many would we be modifying? We would remove the 12-cell VLS, replacing it with an 8-cell variant capable of firing the larger UCM-39. Please note that reloads are not possible outside port; this is true of almost every VLS. Cost per sub would be $1 million; time for refit would be one month.
Third, you should be able to mount the CM-39 and CM-39L on your C-1 bombers' external hardpoints.

Mk.42U undersea VLS
Introduction: Inspired by the launch mechanism used in the SSGN-726, the Mk.42U is a compact underwater vertical missile launch system designed around the CM-8 Speargun. A Mk.42U mount contains sixteen cells in a 4x4 configuration; each cell can mount 1 CM-8 or 3 UAM-97. The Mk.42S variant is designed for surface ships, and has minimal differences - most notably, it can pack missiles for launch more efficiently. Each of its 16 cells can carry 1 CM-8 or RUM-139 standoff anti-sub missile or RIM-66 SM-2 medium-range SAM or RIM-162 Enhanced Sea Sparrow or SAM-100 long-range SAM, 4 9M330 short-range SAM or Aster 15 or Aster 30 or Umkhonto-IR or Umkhonto-R, or 9 SAM-97S or VL Mica.

First, some questions about your order - how many torpedoes, and what types, do you wish to use for your subs' 660mm torpedo tubes? Also, how many torpedoes do you consider 'sufficient' - enough for a single patrol, or a stockpile of some size?
Second, the order will cost $4.2 billion (the price of the submarines themselves). Consider the torpedoes we ship you as payment for your land grant. The subs and torpedoes will be available at Raffles Yards 5-7 in Singapore in eight months.
Third, we greatly appreciate your grant.
Finally, what will you name your subs?
OOC - A bit quicker, but only so much. The main factor in construction time is the time needed to build the ship itself, which is, if anything, generally being underestimated (particularly for my larger ships). Further, it will take time and a lot of money to develop uninhabited islands, as they're generally uninhabited for good reason; I'll probably end up just using Vuku Island as a testing ground.

The R-25 has finished its internal design review! Further, we now release the SR-25 suppressor to the open market.
R-25 Smok
Introduction: The R-25 is a modern bullpup rifle chambered for the 6.8x43mm SPC round.
Construction: The R-25 series uses polygonal rifling, in which an octagonal die is used as an anvil for the hammer that will forge the barrel, all at once, rather than requiring multiple steps to machine the barrel. It saves time, and thus money, but requires skilled metallurgy. Before we ship, we zero two sight-settings in order to correct for any unusual warping in the barrel itself during production.
Feed: The R-25 takes 20-round or 30-round magazines, or 52-round helical magazines. The R-25S sharpshooter rifle and R-25H hunting rifle use the 20-round magazine, and the latter is limited to semiautomatic fire only; only the R-25L light machine gun uses 52-round helical magazines mounted on top of the weapon itself to provide support for infantry squads. The action of the R-25 series is a gas-operated rotating bolt action, as with most modern rifles.
Action: The R-25 uses a short-stroke piston rotating bolt action. The piston, which moves separately from the bolt, operating through a connecting rod, imparts energy through a short, violent, arrested push; kinetic energy drives the bolt through the rest of the operating cycle. This action allows for more control over the rifle. The firing mechanism is open-bolt.
Extras: The R-25C and R-25D have one Picatinny rail for an underbarrel grenade launcher or a spare magazine, while the R-25 and R-25T have two. In addition to normal iron sights, the R-25 and R-25C are fitted with a 3x-magnification telescopic sight; the R-25S and R-25H have a laser range finder on the sight as well, while the R-25D and R-25L only have iron sights. The R-25L also has a sturdy foregrip, a heavier barrel, and a bipod mount.
Weight: R-25, R-25T – 3.9kg; R-25S, R-25H, R-25L – 4.9kg; R-25C – 3.72kg; R-25D – 3.8kg
Length: R-25, R-25T, R-25D, R-25L - 889mm; R-25S, R-25H – 1016mm; R-25C - 730mm
Barrel length: R-25, R-25D, R-25T: 515mm; R-25S, R-25L, R-25H: 623mm
Cartridge: 6.8x43mm SPC
Action: gas operated; rotating open-bolt
Rate of fire: 600 rpm
Muzzle velocity: 720 m/s
Optimum range: 400m
Maximum range: 700m
Feed system: 20-round magazine (R-25S, R-25H), 30-round magazine (R-25C, R-25D, R-25) or 52-round helical magazine (R-25L).
Sights: 3x-mag telescopic sights, normal iron sights
Variants: R25S (sharpshooter), R25C (carbine), R25T (training rifle), R25D (down-market), R25H (hunting rifle), R-25L (light machine gun)
Price: R25 $1000, R25S $1200, R25C $965, R25T $750, R25D $750, R24H $700, R-25L $1100
M-68 helical magazine
Designed for the R-25L, this is a 52-round helical magazine, and is our own, proprietary product. The R-25L only accepts this magazine, due to its having a flipped receiver.
Price: $13
SR-25 suppressor
While no suppressor can fully eliminate the sound of a rifle, especially not one firing supersonic cartridges, the SR-25 can reduce noise levels, making the R-25 easier to use. The SR-25 is constructed from steel, and consists of a 5mm expansion chamber, followed by nine conical baffles spaced 2mm apart. It uses a Fast-Attach eccentric lock ring system to connect the SR-25 to the flash suppressor, allowing for rapid attachment. Firing R-25s fitted with the SR-25 produced 135 decibels, a decrease of 25dB from the norm; interestingly, muzzle velocity increased 5m/s. The SR-25 can be fitted to any 6.8x43mm rifle.
Diameter, center hole: 28mm
Diameter, overall: 40mm
Length: 45mm
Mass: 0.5kg
Price: $62

Good day. We are interested in creating several naval squadrons in an effort to boost up our naval power (purely for defensive means). While our current budget does not allow for massive battleships and so on, we are contented with the following.
21 SQN - Missile Cruiser SQN (With escorts)
25 SQN - Coastal Defence SQN (We are looking at gunboats and patrol boats)
10 SQN - Logistics SQN (we're looking at supply ships, science vessels)
For now we're looking to create the 21 SQN (priority) and invite your company to propose tenders for all 3 SQNs, we would require details on each SQN make up (proposed).
For your action.

Upon study of your proposed packages. We have decided to accept all 3 packages. Kindly send us the details of the prices and a proposed price payment plan, we would prefer one that is spread out over the course of several fiscal years (we are in no rush to field all the ships).
A few pointers.
1. Coastal Defence SQN (Proposed 25 SQN), we will not be need patrol submarines as of this moment, we however do plan to raise up 23 SQN which will be a submarine SQN but that is at a later date.
2. LTC Lee Smith would like to know how long would Confederation Class Supply Ships take to be developed.

Re: Contracts
First, Squadron 21 will cost $15.864 billion, a savings of $64 million; we will include all air assets (using F/A-18G for the strike planes), along with trainers for the F-7N and F/A-18E, along with two loads of ammunition for all weapons, as we are, in essence, tendering an offer to you. We suggest 8 payments, $1.991 billion a year.
Second, Squadron 25b (no subs, but with DDH-30) will cost $3.84 billion (a savings of $35 million); we will include two loads of ammunition for all weapons, and will provide all shipboard aviation free of charge. Again, we suggest 8 payments, $480 million a year.
Third, Squadron 10, excluding the cost of refits (which would depend on the numbers and sizes of ships being refitted), is projected to cost $3.632 billion. As you are paying for our R&D, we cannot reduce the price, though we will include the 24 CH-46E helicopters that will be aboard our 8 SS-13 supply ships (whose design should be released in the next few months), two loads of ammo for the defensive systems on the SS-13s and two loads of dropsondes for the WC-130s. Once again, 8 payments, $454 million a year.
Everything will be delivered to E.R., either by air freight through Cathay Cargo or by delivery under own power, within 8 years. Fighters, trainers, patrol boats, and F/A-18Es will be delivered in one year; EH-101 AEWs, WC-130s, E-2Cs, SC-15s and hydrofoils will be delivered in two years; subs, SH-25 and CH-46E helicopters will be delivered in three years; SH-60 & SH-62 helicopters and destroyers will be delivered in four years; the carrier and EA-18Gs will be delivered in five years; 4 SS-13s will be delivered in six years; 2 SS-13s and 2 MC-16s will be delivered in seven years; and 2 MC-16s & 2 SS-13s will be delivered in eight years.
We hope this is acceptable.
OOC - I've got the SS-13 design on NS Draftroom (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?showtopic=5266); just waiting for discussion so flaws are corrected. Also, the MC-16s are MC-16 Flight 2 models, which will be priced at $2 billion (reflecting increased production costs, due to higher labor costs and higher quality materials) and will carry Michael Shipyards-designed VLS, rather than old RL Mk.41 VLS.
As for the timing, I figure year 1 - early patrols, familiarization with aircraft; year 2 - longer-ranged patrols, early experience with AEW planes, and weather planes (since your patrol radii are further out); year 3 - increased patrolling, familiarization with subs (and with ASuW, practicing with the AS-709s); year 4 - full-blown patrolling, including limited power projection via the destroyers; year 5 - carrier and ECM familiarization; year 6 - supplying ships involved in power projection overseas; and years 7-8 - increased power projection and increased supply to match needs.

We contracted with Mitsubishi Shipping to design the new SS-13, and we think they did a wonderful job!
Further, the MC-16 Flight 2 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14343053&postcount=30) has been released. It's larger than we initially expected, but it's worth it just for the massive missile battery alone.

The UAM-97 is explicitly designed for launch from submerged vessels, not for launch from surface warships. It has far too short a range to be useful for a surface ship. Technically, it would be feasible to use the UAM-97 with the ND-10, but practically, it would be useless.

Re: Manufacturing complex
We believe that the outskirts of Oceanus would be a suitable location for our manufacturing complex. We will hire local construction firms to handle the construction.
On another note, Cathay Cargo, a subsidiary of Luis Aviation, would like to open cargo service to Chazakain, and will pay a total of $8 million for a hangar in one airport in each of the 16 major cities marked the map of Chazakain, along with an extra $500000 for an additional hangar in Oceanus.

T-11 Sao Paulo
Introduction: The T-11 is meant to be our counter to modern tanks, which are far superior to 3rd-generation tanks like the M1 Abrams.
Armament: The primary weapon of the Sao Paulo is the Mk.24 122mm/56-caliber ETC smoothbore, powered by four 30kW fuel cells in the bustle of the turret. As secondary armament, we provide a coaxial 14.5x114mm KPV heavy machine gun and another KPV in a remote weapons station on the roof. Further, 6 VIRSS smoke grenades are fitted, in two triple launchers.
Protection: The T11H armor package provides dramatically improved protection compared to our older tanks. It features composite armor, consisting of layers of steel and depleted uranium forming a sandwich around titanium boride ceramic plates, reinforced with synthetic diamond for added toughness, Kevlar spall lining, explosive reactive armor, and 2 Trophy APS mounts. The T-11's armor has, at its most-protected point, an RHAe of 2110mm. The Trophy Active Protection System tracks incoming projectiles and intercepts them with a grenade.
Systems: The T-11 features an autoloader, an overpressure NBC system, a ballistic computer, laser and thermal rangefinders and a boiling vessel/teakettle, along with the Trophy APS. The autoloader allows firing rates of up to 9 rounds/minute; seven 3-round 'columns' are kept in the turret, while seven more are stored below. Finally, the CREW-2 electronic warfare system, meant to jam remotely-controlled bombs, is installed.
Propulsion: The T-11 uses Guarita's DO66-2S99 engine, generating 2000hp and powering the electrically-enhanced ignition of the tank's main gun. A 30kW fuel cell is mounted beside the driver's compartment for auxiliary power, along with a small bank of lithium+ polymer batteries.
A versatile hull: The T-11 hull is used for the IFT-11 series of infantry fighting vehicles, the ICT-11 infantry combat vehicle, the GT-11 series of artillery vehicles, and the ADT-11 air defense vehicle. Other proposals include the T-11H heavy tank, the T-11B bridgelayer, and the T-11T training tank.

Re: R-25
How many R-25s do you expect to build over the course of the next 2-5 years? How about in the next 5-10 years? Would you be willing to let us acquire a factory in your nation to serve as a subcontractor for rifle production? Would you prefer to pay us a 25-75% royalty per rifle produced (in addition to an initial fee), or simply pay a large fee up-front? Your answers to these sorts of questions, in addition to your opening bid, would help us immensely in negotiating an unlimited domestic production license.
As for ammunition manufacturing, the R-25 uses standard 6.8x43mm Remington SPC bullets, which are not proprietary to us. If you are interested in buying a license to manufacture the M-68 helical magazine for the R-25L (and, presumably, a license to manufacture the R-25L light machine gun itself as well), you should answer the above questions for those products as well.

Good day. To answer the questions you have raised.
We expect to manufacture over 500,000 units of the the rifles over the next 2-5 years, however it is expected to rise to close to 800,000 units as we are going to vastly expand the ERAF. We have checked with the Ministry Of Trade and Industry and they are open to the idea of a rifle factory opening in Endenia Prime. We would of course prefer a large fee. We are looking to a sum of 300 million along with production rights to the M-68 Helical Magazines.
We look forward to your reply.

Re: Proposal
We offer the following proposal: unlimited domestic production rights for the complete R-25 series, the M-68 magazine, and the SR-25 for $750 million US and permission to open a rifle factory in Endenia Prime that would operate akin to our half of the Union Rifle Plant in Anghele. We would pay $50 million to open the Prime Arsenal rifle factory in Endenia Prime.
I hope this is acceptable to you.

"Again? What's with Chazakain and nukes?" Ming asked, annoyed.
"Mama, it's Cha-za-ka, not Cha-za-cane" her daughter, Yu, said.
"Oh." She typed, and her daughter craned her head to look.
"What's 'deterrence'?"
"Well, say there's a bad guy who wants to hurt you. You could fight him, but he'd probably hurt you, even if you win. So, what you do is you show him you've got pepper spray, and he'll realize that it's not worth it for him to fight you." Ming sighed.
"But why should there be bad guys, anyway? Shouldn't we do something about it, try to get rid of all the bad guys?"
"Yeah, but what makes a guy a bad guy?" David asked, walking over. "Hi, I'm David."
"Hi, David!" Yu squeaked. "Mama says you're a good boss."
"Well, good for her to tell you to say that."
"She didn't tell me to say that!" Yu fumed. "I wanted to say that to you myself." Ming laughed.

Re: Order
As for your deterrence strategy - do make sure you announce your acquisition of nuclear-armed cruise missiles, and that you announce that you will use them under specific circumstances. We cannot confirm the order until we know under what circumstances you would use nuclear weapons, and how you would use them, so that we may clarify that your use of nuclear weapons would not embarrass us. In other words, we would accept something to the effect of: If nuclear weapons are used on troops or ships deployed abroad, we will respond with the use of nuclear weapons on enemy troops or ships; if nuclear weapons are used on troops or ships in Chazaka, we will attack enemy ports with nuclear weapons; if nuclear weapons are used on our cities, we will attack enemy leadership targets with nuclear weapons; if nuclear weapons are used on our capital, we will destroy the launching nation's major cities. We wouldn't accept: if our waters are violated, we will attempt to destroy the invaders, and the ports that launched the ships, with nuclear weapons; if our military suffers a major setback due to the use of conventional arms, we will attempt to destroy the enemy nation entirely with nuclear weapons. You are at peace, yes?

Re: Contract
Contract confirmed. Expect delivery in one year.
IFV-67
Introduction: Based on the LTV-67, the IFV-67 is designed to comfortably carry six troops into combat and provide them with useful fire support. It is the first vehicle to use the new Mk.111 37x167mm chain gun. Like the LTV-67, the IFV-67 is based around the hull of the Stingray light tank; unlike the LTV-67, it has a door at the rear to allow its passengers to exit.
Engine: We selected the EJ-FD-10 flat-10 multifuel diesel engine. It can run on diesel, gasoline, ethanol or a variety of other fuels, and, as a flat engine, is more compact than more traditional diesel engines. This allowed us more room for features like an enlarged fuel tank or increased ammo storage. Additionally, an automatic transmission is fitted, featuring four forward gears and one reverse gear. A smoke shroud can be emitted from the exhaust.
Armament: We have elected to design a new 37x257mm automatic cannon, the Mk.111 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14463456&postcount=165), which uses a 6kW electric motor to power its action. A coaxial MG-15 HMG is fitted, while infantry can use any of the six firing ports in their compartment to lay down suppressive fire. The ammunition load of the IFV-67 is 600 37mm cannon shells and 1000 15x124mm machine gun rounds.
Protection: We fitted the Arena-E hard-kill Active Protection System, which uses radar to track incoming munitions traveling at velocities of 70-700m/s and then uses a computer to determine when to fire off any of its 26 projectiles mounted around the turret to intercept the munitions. Its reaction time is 0.05 seconds, and it can protect the IFV on a 300-degree arc. To defend against proximity-fused munitions, the AN/VLQ-11 system, which jams radio frequencies, is fitted; this also gives the IFV-67 limited electronic warfare capability. To spoof IR-guided missiles and hide the IFV-67 from infantry, it is fitted with two SA/SGL-55 twin 55mm VIRSS grenade launchers. Finally, if all else fails, the IFV-67 relies on its main armor. Unlike the LTV-67, the IFV-67 uses spaced armor, with an outer layer of steel and steel layers separated by sloped interior cavities. Further, as it does not use Chobham, the IFV-67 derives advantage from sloped armor.
Other systems: We also fitted our standard vehicle systems suite - overpressure NBC protection system, PF/BV-1 boiling vessel, JT/FSS-11 Halon fire suppression system, GPS navigation, and AN/VSS-5 driver's sight. To give the IFV-67 night-vision capability, we fitted a thermal sight; to guide the cannon, we fitted a turret-mounted laser designator and the Mk.148 FCS. Finally, we included a laser threat warner.
Options: The IFV-67-B budget model reduces the armor fit to a maximum of 75mm RHAe, and removes the Arena-E APS. The IFV-67+ enhanced model, not yet released, will feature a new APS, slat armor, an increased armor fit (105mm RHAe max), and a battlespace management system node, among other new systems. The IFV-67C command vehicle will also be released soon, while the IFV-67C+ will feature the advanced combat network and other improved electronics of the IFV-67+.

Mk.111 37x257mm chain gun
Introduction: The Mk.111 is a single-barrel 'chain gun', in which an electric motor is used to load and fire the cannon. It uses 37x257mm shells.
Air burst technology: The Mk.111 is designed to make use of air-burst technology. Operators can use the Mk.148 fire control system to set shells' fuses to explode at a precise range, determined by a laser rangefinder, milliseconds before firing.
Rapid fire: The Mk.111 can fire off up to 300 shells in one minute, then needs an 8-minute cooling-off period before firing again to avoid undue damage to the barrel. The 300 shells can be fired off in a continuous stream, in 100-shell bursts separated by 10-second intervals, or in 50-shell bursts separated by 5-second intervals.

Re: Purchase
We hereby confirm your order. The ADV-2313s will be delivered in one hundred 15000-truck batches, one being delivered every month to the port of Manila, where they can be picked up for delivery by sea or air freight. The ADT-11s will be delivered in seventy-five 20000-vehicle batches, one being delivered every fifty days to the port of Burtford, where they can be picked up for delivery by sea or air freight.
We recommend you use Cathay Cargo (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=580152), the preferred shipper of CoDC exports.
The cost of your order, for the record, is $48.7425 trillion ($48742500000000). We will split this into 25 payments, one due every six months, so that your budget can accommodate this purchase. Given the size of the contract, we will ship one load of ammunition for all vehicles, at no extra cost.

Re: Buyout
As noted previously, we cannot offer a controlling interest in our member companies to anyone outside the Confederacy. In light of this, we will not go public, and therefore cannot offer you stock. However, if you come to us with an appropriate investment proposal, and funding for it, we will take it into consideration and would be willing to share profits on the investment.
OOC: Yes, I know you set up your own air freight service. Consider that line part of a form letter; I'll be incorporating it into future responses.
Meanwhile, your defense budget is ~$4.5 trillion (http://nstracker.jfsoftware.com/index.php?nation=anghele). Since only one-third can generally be given over to procurement, we took the initiative of giving you a contract that works. You'll be paying from both the defense and law & order budgets, but you still should be able to accommodate a $49 trillion purchase, if it's split over twelve and a half years.
Also, design continues apace on the AICV-34 series of amphibious assault vehicles, which will feature the GL-10 25x60mm AGL, the MG-15 15x124mm HMG, and the ATGM-85 hypervelocity laser-guided anti-tank missile. The AICV-34 series will include the AICV-34 itself, an APC capable of carrying a 31-man platoon; the AADV-34 air defense vehicle, carrying two triple launchers for the SAM-100 long-range SAM; the AAOV-34 anti-ordnance vehicle, carrying a 15kW laser and a 12-man bomb squad; the AEV-34 engineering vehicle, armed with a 165mm low-velocity gun and equipped with a crane and a Mk.154 mine clearance line charge, carrying 6 engineers; the AMV-34 mortar vehicle, carrying a 2B9 82mm gun-mortar; and the ACV-34 command vehicle, carrying 9 workstations for 12 staff and significant communications gear.

You don´t need to buy anything,your company,Cathway Cargo would fuse with M.A.C Air Cargo and your planes would operate with mine and mine with yours.Both companies would be under control of the two of us.If you feel unconfortable at anytime you just pull the plug on the project,since I can´t do anything (no shares of your company have been sold to me).SO this way your company could really expand (you would run the business,I only have interest in M.A.C Air Cargo to transport my weapons,either than that you can run the company if you want.)

Re: Counteroffer
We have the following counteroffer -
1) You set up a company, MAC-East, which will serve as a subcontractor for both of us. MAC-East will own and operate two small arms plants, two plants for the fabrication of armor, one engine fabrication plant, and one small shipyard capable of assembling up to 4500 tonnes of ships at a time on six slipways, which will be set up in a complex on Ticao Island. It will also own and operate radar, missile, rocket engine, turbofan, tank tread, tire, and vehicle assembly plants in Anghele.
1a) MAC-East will be half-owned by Smith Armory and half-owned by M.A.C. Heavy Industries. Smith Armory will handle the day-to-day operations, providing labor management for the firm.
1b) MAC-East will begin with $900 billion in starting assets, with $800 billion contributed by M.A.C. Heavy Industries and $100 billion contributed by Smith Armory.
2) Cathay Cargo will agree to code-sharing with M.A.C. Air Cargo. Both firms will be permitted to fly each others' routes.
2a) To cover the costs of building infrastructure on Ticao Island, and of purchasing sufficient land on Ticao Island, Luis Aviation, the owner of Cathay Cargo, will be granted a minority interest (25%) in M.A.C. Air Cargo.
2b) MAC-East will be granted a 30% discount on air freight charges on both Cathay Cargo and M.A.C. Air Cargo.
2c) Members of the Confederacy will be granted a 10% discount on air freight charges on M.A.C. Air Cargo; M.A.C. Heavy Industries will be granted a 10% discount on air freight charges on Cathay Cargo.
3) Smith Armory will operate a tank manufacturing complex in Neogania
3a) M.A.C. will purchase the land for the complex (a 5 square km contiguous plot), and will pay for construction costs.
3b) The complex will operate under the labor standards of the Confederacy.
3c) Smith Armory will pay appropriately diminished taxes.
4) M.A.C. Heavy Industries will invest a total of $2 trillion in all these efforts, and will receive the following benefits - increased reach for M.A.C. Air Cargo, increased employment in Neogania and elsewhere in Anghele, and a well-managed subcontracting firm to increase space on factory floors.
5) The Confederacy will invest a total of $500 billion ($100 billion for MAC-East as seed cash, $400 billion in investments in Anghele for MAC-East), and will receive the following benefits - increased reach for Cathay Cargo, increased employment in the Philippines, and a well-managed subcontracting firm to increase space on factory floors.
OOC: Subcontracting for parts is probably far more common on II than most arms manufacturers say. Especially given the range of RL equipment still used, even in NS designs.
As for purchasing from you - only for subcontracting duties (or possibly to fulfill limited aspects of larger contracts (e.g. bullets), which is just another form of subcontracting).
As for fusing Cathay Cargo and MAC - I didn't feel like doing a full-bore merger yet, instead just code-sharing (allowing your planes to use my routes, runway slots and hangars, and vice versa).

We accept the terms of the contract,but please change the name from "MAC-East" to M.A.C Heavy Industries| Smith Armoury Eastern Defense Subsidiary .
The contracts for the land purchases are being written and we shall start building the factories in 5 days.
If you intend to do a full merger of M.A.C Air Cargo with Cathay please think of a name to give to the new company.
Other changes;
1.
a) The Neogania tank manufacturing complex will comprise 10 km instead of 5 km (we shall pay the difference aswell).
b) The tank manufacturing complex built for and run by you will build under contract our M.A.C M1-T958 M.B.T (we shall pay you for this,please specify the sum)
c) Either another shipyard is built in your nation or in Ticao Island with a bigger capacity,or an additional one shall be built to handle ships up to 95.000 tonnes (all financed by us).
2.
a) We shall create a mutual fund for both our companies where the two shall deposit some moeny from time to time,so that in case of need,it´s used as backup funds.If agreed M.A.C shall make an initial deposit of 270 billion USD.
b) If possible,M.A.C would like to have 10% of Cathay Cargo (a symbolic presence in the company)shares aswell.
c) Since a ammunition manufacturing plant may be necessary and the M.A.C existing one won´t be able to cope with production for our two companies,we will also build a 5 square km plant to build all kinds of ammunition,explosives,bombs and missiles (from small arms,mortars,tanks,artillery to planes,anti,nuclear icbm´s,all kinds of missiles and bombs)

Re: Negotiations
Name change is acceptable. We did not think a full merger of M.A.C. Air Cargo & Cathay Cargo was on the table; we are willing to do so, provided that Luis Aviation appoints 18 members out of the 20-member board of directors for the merged company, which we would rename Universal Air Freight.
1a) Accepted, after a fashion. See above.
1b) We are willing to serve as a subcontractor for the M.A.C. M1-T958, at a cost of $3.75 million/unit, but will be building the complex for construction of T-11 tanks (which are more massive than the M1-T958, anyway), with room to grow. The largest tanks we expect to build will be heavy tanks in the 80-tonne range; it is for that size tank this complex is ultimately intended.
1c) We will grant you permission to open up a 95000-tonne, four-slipway shipyard at the port of Christchurch. We are planning to expand our operations in New Zealand, and this would be a step in that direction.
2) Accepted; we recommend setting up a joint account with the Freidlicher Banking Group (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=580052). We would contribute matching funds from Boris Rotorcraft towards this proposal, and create a $540 billion US numbered account. We would be willing to have Boris Rotorcraft himself visit Freidlichen to open the account; he has already had a reserve account of his own set up, using funds gained from sale of a domestic production license for his company's CM-39 cruise missile.

Re: continuing negotiations
Earlier concerns -
2a) Well, since we both have accounts, we're both familiar with the procedure, and with the exceptional quality of service at FBG. I recommend a third, joint account, meant for both M.A.C Heavy Industries| Smith Armoury Eastern Defense Subsidiary (MACHI|SAEDS) and Universal Air Freight (UAF). As for investment goals, I recommend we have FBG make sound investments that will aim to beat inflation rates and ensure that we maintain a tidy reserve account. I further recommend we have FBG consider investing in the arms manufacturing industry, so long as it does not introduce undue risk, in order to help grow our industry.
2b) We are willing to shift to a 10-10-1 UAF board, with the last member being a neutral consumer advocate. Is that acceptable? You would be placed in charge of maintaining compliance with the law, and would be guaranteed access to all your files. The consumer advocate would make us look rather good in the eyes of the public - after all, it shows that we care so much about our customers that we put one on the Board!
2c) The other complex, would this be in Anghele? We could put it under MACHI|SAEDS control, making it jointly owned.
One last, minor point -
3) Could we change 'Subsidiary' to 'Supplier' in the name of MACHI|SAEDS? Minor point, but it looks nicer.
I believe this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

If you are talking about the ammunition factory,if meant to be built in Anghele it would be kept under M.A.C Defense control,but if you really need to it can be co-owned,but only after some revisions to the original agreement.Your company pays 35% of the factory.

All three branches of the military is underarmed with 90% of the military having no weapons. So we've come here to make a major purchase for the Army.
We would like to purchase 400,000 T-11 Sao Paulo for $4,400,000,000,000 USD. Our current defense budget is $4,774,919,433,030.00 (http://nseconomy.thirdgeek.com/nseconomy.php?nation=Belkaland), so we should have no problem making this purchase.

Re: Purchase
Your order is confirmed; unfortunately, we have had to cut costs of late, due to overambitious capital, research and advertising investments, so you will need to purchase the appropriate missiles, shells and helicopters yourself. The 'retroactive' order will be completed in three years; the first batch of the new order will be completed in four years (one year after the 'retroactive' order) and the second batch will be completed one year later.
Please note that we do not currently build or sell light ships such as corvettes and frigates. If you like, you could provide us with designs that have worked well for you, and we could attempt to design something on similar lines, provided that first off, you understood that R&D costs would mean a higher price than one might expect, and that second, you agree to help fund our R&D.
Finally, while you certainly understand your own needs better than we, we do recommend that you consider replacing the battleships, battlecruisers, and large cruisers with MC-16 Flight II large cruisers, which, while of heavier displacement than the basic MC-16s, carry far more ship-to-ship missiles than the Flight I models. The MC-16 Flight II can carry our SCM-39 ship-launched cruise missiles, which outrange and outpenetrate battleship shells.
OOC: what I mean is that you'd let me know what frigates/corvettes you currently use, then I'd improve them to my standards.

Re: Purchase
Please note that ammunition for the T-11 is sold separately; please also note that, to achieve the best performance from the T-11, you should purchase 122mm/56-caliber shells with our proprietary low-vulnerability propellants, designed specifically to achieve high muzzle velocities when fired from the T-11's main gun.
We therefore recommend that you purchase, say, 100 million APFSDS and 68 million HE shells, for an additional $436 billion, which would provide you with sufficient shells for each tank to fire off all its ammo 100 times. That gives you enough for both training and intensive warfare.
In total, that would bring your order to $4.836 trillion. Given that you'll need to spend money on the other branches of the military, and that it will take 440 days before all the tanks and shells are delivered, we recommend you split that into two separate payments, one for $2.418 trillion this year and one for $2.418 trillion next year.

Official Communiqué from the Republic of Ancient Terra
Joint Communiqué
Ministry of Defense - Ministry of Foreign Affairs
From: The Desk of Lord Admiral Yamato Ishida, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff - Representative of the Terran Ministry of Defense
Intended Recipient: Mitsubishi Shipping (Division of Foreign Military Sales), Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) or its Confederacy of Defense Corporations analog
Subject: Intent to Place an Order
Body of Message Follows:
To Mitsubishi Shipping, a member of the Confederation of Defense Corporations,
On behalf of the Republic of Ancient Terra, and our proud Ministry of Defense in particular, I greet you and hope that I find you all in good health. We wish to place an order for four (4) SS-13 Confederation-class Underway Replenishment Vessels for service in the proud Terran Navy.
We apologize for the somewhat sudden nature of this order, but two of Terra's largest shipyards squabble incessantly over military contracts like a pair of worthless pups fighting over a scrap of meat. They have a proud history and do not take readily to the idea of joint research and development, and as a result our own indigenous plans for the Housaku-class of Fast Combat Support Ships are considerably behind schedule, even as many of our Supply-class vessels are due for retirement.
As a means of bridging this gap in our Navy's capabilities, the National Diet of Terra has approved the purchase of four (4) SS-13s, with an option for up to twelve (12) more if the Housaku-class continues to fall further behind schedule. We require the delivery of all four initial vessels within three years of purchase date. We are additionally willing to finance the acquisition of rate-limiting components for an additional 12 SS-13s to ensure that supplies are available immediately should we choose to exercise our purchasing option for additional ships.
Finally, we wish to inquire as to the availability of an ordinance package to outfit our VLS systems with SAM-97S SAMs. Terran Naval Strategists propose the following as an adequate package per vessel:
Ancient Terran SS-13 Confederation-class Outfitting and Reload Package (Associated Systems)
48,000 rounds 30 mm HE-Frag (Kashtan)
48,000 rounds 30 mm Frag-T (Kashtan)
256 SA-N-11 (9M311M) Surface-to-Air Missiles (Kashtan)
18 SA-N-11 (9M311M) Captive Air Training Missiles (Kashtan)
18 SA-N-11 (9M311M) Dummy Air Training Missiles (Kashtan)
240 111SG depth-charge rockets with HE warhead (Udav-1)
180 111SZ mine-laying rockets (Udav-1)
120 111SO decoy rockets (Udav-1)
632 SAM-97S Surface-to-Air Missiles (Mk.42S VLS)
27 SAM-97S Captive Air Training Missiles (Mk.42S VLS)
27 SAM-97S Dummy Air Training Missiles (Mk.42S VLS)
19,200 rounds of 14.5x114mm ammunition (9504 API, 9504 HEI, 96 APIT, 96 HEIT)
Please feel free to modify the above at will, as we have limited experience with Russian-derived weapons systems and even less with other foreign designs.
We are absolutely willing to sign agreements in order to protect your technologies from reverse-engineering, although the design of the Housaku-class has been set in stone for many months now, so any worries towards this front are essentially non-issues.
The price of 4 SS-13s comes to $1,600,000,000, which is approximately K$815,040,000 Terran Kinsens at the current exchange rate of K$1 = NS$1.9631. Obviously, this does not include the price of the proposed weapons package (of which we would need 4) nor acquisition costs for low rate-of-production components such as the A4W reactors that would power the 12 optioned SS-13s. Please come back to us with a price for such additions.
We hope that you can accommodate our order; our crews begin training two months from now and we eagerly look forward to the addition of these fine vessels to the fleet.
Sincerely,
-Lord Admiral Yamato Ishida-
Witnesses:
-Vice Admiral Miyako "Yolei" Inoue, Chief of Naval Operations, Terran Navy-
-Rear Admiral Leinani "Lani" Kaimuola, Commander, Terran Military Sealift Command, Terran Navy-

Re: Purchase
Your order is confirmed at $1.6 billion. The ships will be delivered from our main shipyards in Yokohama in two years; please have your commissioning crews present by then.
For the ammunition packages, we request $325 million US per package; the majority of the cost is for the SAM-97S missiles themselves. The package you've laid out seems adequate.
Acquisition costs for the A4W reactors are minimal, as they are in use among a number of our ships. We can easily absorb the cost of the reactors ourselves, and will not charge you for them. Further, in the event you do not end up taking the option, we are prepared to acquire the twelve ships for our own purposes, so we will not need the financing you've suggested. Mitsubishi is, after all, a shipping firm, and our sea freight needs are fairly extensive, given the dispersed nature of our operations around the globe.
The formal contract that you will be given in one week's time will, as is standard for our contracts, incorporate legal protections against reverse-engineering.

OOC: I'm planning on reworking the entire storefront, once I come out with some new products. It'll be organized by 'market' ('value' (e.g. the LTV-67 light tank), mid-market (e.g. the ICT-11L), and 'luxury' (not yet released)), and products will get just a brief description and a link to the main product. ICly, it would be justified by a power shift from Mondo Advertising and his supporters to David Law and his supporters, which is in progress.

"Have you ever looked at the catalog? I mean, seriously looked at it?" David asked pointedly. "It's horrid. It's organized from our perspective, not from that of our customers."
"Oh?" the Sultan asked.
"Well, let's say you, as Sultan of Brunei, wanted to re-equip your army. If you looked at other catalogs, it would be easy - you'd just go to the 'Land warfare' section or whatever. Here, though, there's four different places to look, depending on if you want a transport helicopter, an attack helicopter, a rifle or SPG, or a tank or truck!" David explained.
"So, I should back you because you'll fix the catalog?"
"The catalog is a sign of the overarching problem. It's Mondo's catalog, after all - his team designed its layout."
"They're the marketing experts -"
"And they haven't proven very successful, now have they?"

OOC: And just how would you know to look? We generally don't release sales records. However, if you set up an intelligence network (not too difficult to do, with some bribery), you could identify which shipments are going where. That's not something that would go into place overnight, naturally.
Hierphil

OOC: Oh, no particular reason. We have an intelligence agency who has identified that Xult has been working with you. SCAR is known to be hiding within Xult. We suspect ~I.N.~ to be the leader of SCAR and estranged brother of the Supreme Chancellor of Xult. So we did our own math ;D

OOC: Ah, fair enough. You could also talk to the Korintaris - I just revealed to them every order Xult has made, in hopes of gaining their trust that we are a legitimate company that won't sell offensive weaponry. You'll notice that the worst Xult's bought so far is some 20 tanks and a bunch of artillery pieces. He hasn't bought cruise missiles, or even fighter planes, let alone bombers or nukes or anything of that sort.
Not that we wouldn't accept money. Naturally, we'd cover it over by giving you unlimited domestic production rights to a certain small piece of technology, for an appropriate fee.
Firmly against bribery? Even for espionage?
Hierphil
03-03-2009, 06:01

And I wouldn't tell you that we're currently deploying spies within Xult to search for Ivn Nikitin. But I would (and have) told you these things because you are a storefront who may or may not have spying/espionage equiptment.
By the way, we apologize. We've been having some mail issues lately, so if a blank check signed by our Prime Minister "accidentally" lands on your CEO's desk, please forgive us.

Or, that's how it would appear to the outside world; in reality, you'd be getting the blueprints and the information on the order that ~I.N.~ placed. It's a surprisingly innocuous order - 2 attack helicopters, 5 grenade launchers (with 100 tear gas grenades only), 10 patrol boats, and 10 light tanks, with ammunition for the boats and tanks and carbines for the tanks' crews.

Re: Surveillance
We offer the following options for reconnaissance:
First, there's the RD-5 unmanned high-altitude surveillance drone. The RD-5 can operate for up to 8 hours, traveling up to 925km. It designed with stealthy features, making it that much more difficult to detect. It can carry an optical sensor, a thermal camera or a compact ground-penetrating radar, and will securely send data back to controllers.
Next, there's the RF-128, a cheaper twist on the SR-71 approach. It's derived from a fighter design, and allows for high-altitude high-speed manned aerial reconnaissance. However, it is over eight times the cost of the RD-7.
Then, there's the PC-15, which is suited for signals intercepts. It is not a reconnaissance plane per se, but has systems for broadcast and reception of television signals and both UHF and VLF radio signals. It costs nearly twice as much as the RF-128.
Finally, there's the RB-125 manned spaceplane. For this vehicle, you will need to purchase rockets capable of lifting a 30-tonne payload into LEO; once it reaches orbit, however, it can carry up to 1800kg of surveillance equipment, and can shift orbit using its thrusters. It is about 1.5 times as expensive as the PC-15.
For more information, see the catalogs of Boris Rotorcraft (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14335941&postcount=2) (for the RD-7 and RB-125) and Luis Aviation (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14335950&postcount=3) (for the RB-125 and PC-15).

This so called "Society of Citizens who Accept all Races" (SCAR) is the SCAR that we all have been talking about sir/madam (OoC: I do not if that is a man or woman). This is a front as its actual name is "Socialist Countries for the Advancement of Rebels" (SCAR). Think about it for a moment, why would a private, supposedly peaceable, organization request nuclear weapons, hmmm? Please ponder this as you do business with this organization and state. They have been a threat to peace in the past, and there is strong evidence that they cannot be trusted now.
Consider this as well:
Ivan Nikitin (signs ~I.N.~), brother to current leader Oscar Nikitin, founded the SCAR organization and was the leader before the democratic government came to power in Xult
After Ernesto Cheark of Soviet Systems, I believe, signed a peace treaty on the behalf of Ivan, without his prior approval, Xult plunged into civil war with Ivan going into hiding for the duration of the war and for a long while after.
After the civil war ended a democratic government came to power, this was later overthrown by Ivan's brother, Oscar, who has refused to denounce his brother to the world community and insists they still have a close relationship.
The leader of the democratic regime was executed publicly by Oscar's forces and now they plan a massive military build up. For what? The purposes are not clear, but it is a sign of an aggressive posture towards the global community.
I do hope that you find this most informative towards Xult's intentions in acquiring nuclear weaponry.

Please clarify.
The simple coincidense of the first letter of our names is not legal grounds to refuse us weaponry. Accusing our peaceful organization of being a terrorist organization is undoubtedly appalling and certainly insulting. Our PEACEFUL organization is certainly not a threat to peace and can be trusted now. I ask you to ask your "reliable" customer where there proof is that the Society of Citizens Who Accept All Races has EVER threatened the international peace.
Our sources relay to us that Ivan Nikitin was the former leader of Xult. Indeed he founded SCAR though we see no proof that he is in anyway related to our organization besides two letters (hardly reliable evidence!)
Indeed, Xult was plunged into a civil war after the downfall of Ivan Nikitin. His brother, Oscar, did regain power and teamed up with our organization as a display of good intentions to the world. Obviously, working with a Society promoting social acceptance is indeed beneficial to a new leader.
According to the current Supreme Chancellor, the purpose of the public execution of the democratic leader was to officially end the war. The military build up, which Xult has notified us as being minor (thus largely exaggerated by your customer) is meant to prevent further rebellions and unrest among citizens and to provide protect from the outer world who current despises Xult based on its history.
Again, I would like to reitterate that our company is separate from the government of Xult. Xult would not be maintaining nuclear warheads. Our separate, reliable, trustworthy society for acceptance and peace would be owning the warheads to receive dignity and recognition from the developed world.

Re: Nuclear SCAR?
To be honest, I think the world would trust nuclear warheads in the hands of a government far more than said warheads in the hands of a private organization. What measures would you undertake to ensure the safety and security of your nuclear weapons? How can we be assured that you will handle them responsibly?
Furthermore, what is the purpose of SCAR? What sort of group is it, and what are its goals? How do nuclear weapons fit into those goals?
Finally, as a member of a large, internationally-respected organization, I can assure you that the possession of nuclear warheads is not necessary for recognition. If anything, I personally think our offering nuclear weaponry for sale has been a mistake, given the societal perceptions surrounding such weapons. Consider that this possible sale has sparked anger among multiple customers and potential customers, I am recommending to the Board that we reject it on grounds of undue damage to our reputation.
I am revoking my order for nuclear weaponry from this company. Your processes have been to much of a hassle and I have already successfully purchased 10 nuclear weapons from a rival company.
