Subject: Acquisition of Ship Building Rights

It has come to my attention that your company offers the ability to manufacture you ships after acquiring the rights to do so. The Imperial Ministry of War is very interested in adding some of your ships to the Federal Fleet. They have asked us at the Bashford Imperial Arms Company to attain the rights to build these ships of yours. This venture is also part of a plan to lower unemployment in some coastal areas. We hope that you accept and grant us the rights to produce your ships domestically. Thank you.

Sincerely Count Jonus Bashford

[Yohannes]

To the Honourable Jonus Bashford, representing Bashford Imperial Arms Company

Kia Ora, greetings to you, Count Bashford. The RBSG Group is certainly more than prepared to include the nation of Fallenrun within our multiregional network of commerce, industrial, logistics & merchantile activities.

I assure you that the establishment of this commercial framework will result in the further increase of already beneficial exchange of capital, goods, knowledge and skills between the economies of Fallenrun and Yohannes. Its supplementation with already existing legislation and the clear respect to the rule of law as well as existence of transparent commercial practice, in our two nations, will furthermore maximise the assured benefit of our commercial operation in your nation, and further ease the way for entrepreneurial businesses connected to the RBSG Group to invest in multiple infrastructural and engineering projects throughout Fallenrun.

Many jobs, and multiple skill-growing as well as knowledge-based employment positions required by our expanding operation in your nation will be created, resulting in the increase of productivity, generation of wealth and seamless transfer of knowledge and skills between Imperial and Yohannesian firms. As a note and further assurance, we would like to emphasise the fact that the fruits of our various commercial activities and investment in your nation will be subjected to any related industrial regulations or taxation policy of your represented government, in line with our multiregional policy of 'responsible investment' and 'home-nation respect'. I will see to it that as much employment opportunities in middle management, managerial and labour positions are reserved exclusively only for registered citizens and residents of your represented nation. Any related health and safety standard will meet their equivalents practiced in the Kingdom of Yohannes itself.

Included within the terms of agreement between RBSG firms is the number one requirement that Imperial suppliers must be secured and used first, before that of foreign, non-Imperial suppliers, logically improving further the generation of jobs and increasing the benefit of our operation to Imperial businesses and communities around where we operate in your nation. Our inspectors and officials will send you the further information you will need relating to our scheduled future meeting, and we guarantee that RBSG operation will commence within the next three to five years in Fallenrun.

Once again, the Board of Directors of RBSG will ensure that our group of multinational businesses will abide by any existing taxation policies already in place. Armed merchant fleets of Royal Beaufort - in cooperation with His Majesty's Commonwealth Navy - will ensure our effective cooperation together with the Imperial Navy of Fallenrun, and our group of businesses are fully prepared to allocate the compensation associated with any existing transport costs at current international rates.

Should there be any issues requiring further clarification not made possible through correspondence, please do not hesitate to contact me via my attached e-mail and phone, or my office.

Kia Ora fellow Rangatira. It is with a warm heart that I encounter a people from an extremely similar background. I would not be surprised that if we both decided to trace our whakapapa that we would find a family connection at some point in the distant path. It seems you have done exceedling well for yourselves considering your seperation from your brothers. I applaud you for your ability to remain holding on to your true roots whilst carving out a path for yourselves to progress with into the uncertain future in this conflicted world we live in. The only thing that could be considered certain it seems however is RBSG profits. If you ever feel the need to offer some funds to your whānau in Sondria, we would not be adverse to accepting a portion.

However, I come with more practical tidings. The Tauā Moana has never been adverse to remedying any deficiencies it might have. Ensuring that it can successfully participate in an armed conflict against other, similar, opponents and continue to perform better than this opposition should be considered a keypart in any military stragety when engaging in armed conflict. Even improving on areas which are considered capable as of current is never an opportunity to be disregarded without careful examination of why it might not be appropriate. As a result of this thinking, the Tauā Moana has seen some vessels that the RBSG has available that it would be willing to place an order for. In this case, the Tauā Moana wishes to acquire the following:

- Waarden Class [CGE]: 370
- Waarden Class [CGE]: Domestic Production Rights

Total Cost: $1,295,000,000,000+

To the Right Honourable Ariel Ya'alon, Prime Minister of Israela

Kia Ora Prime Minister Ya'alon, it is truly an honour for me to correspond directly with you myself. Her Majesty's Government has indicated for me to enquire about your willingness to cooperate further with us.

I would like to humbly enquire, therefore: would the government of Israela accept the additional presence of RBSG logistics centres and bases in its territories?

As a business with operation existing in multiple regions, our institution oversees hundreds of billions' worth of exchange and construction daily in hundreds of nations worldwide. Recently, our shipyards have entered into agreements with nations having close relationship with, and related to Israela. The establishment of our regional centres in your republic will, therefore, be the logical way to cut shipping-related and additional operating costs of transporting our goods to nations located geographically close to, or having close relationship with Israela.

Our - entirely civilian - crews and staff will furthermore provide the additional supply of consumers needed by the Israelan coastal areas around where we will operate. Commercial areas surrounding these centres would flourish, benefiting regional economies in your nation. Indirect hospitality and servicing jobs will be made available to hundreds of thousands of your population.

I eagerly await your decision, Mr Ya'alon.

Dear Sir/Madam or Whom It May Concern,

It is the policy of the Kingdom of Afalia to seek and expand free trade between our sovereign nation and others. It is to this end that the Ministry of Security, on behalf of the Foreign and Overseas Office and the Department of Trade and Business, is pleased to submit an application for the establishment of a Royal Beaufort Shipwrights shipyard in Afalia. These shipyards, if built, would be placed in the remote western coastlines of Afalia and will not only give Royal Beaufort Shipwrights masses of land in which to work but will also provide an excellent source of employment and economic investment for inhabitants of these remote communities.

Name of nation: Kingdom of Afalia
Name of agency/entity to manage, represent or supervise our facilities in your nation: Royal Afalian Navy-Specifically Royal Afalian Navy Police and, if necessary, the Competition Investigations Bureau.
Type of facilities [tick one or more]:
Logistics & shipping centre [] Shipyard [X] Others (please explain in 'comments' section below) []
Number of above facilities [of the type you have ticked/chosen]: Presently 2 but the option for additional shipyards to be opened remains open.
[Optional]Economic policy: Afalia is, in general terms, a partially regulated market economy. The minimum wage is high but corporation tax levels are low, at 20%. A robust welfare system provides universal healthcare and tertiary education free to most citizens. Ports and ships are an essential source of economic wealth with a premium placed on protecting Afalia's seaways and EEZ. Shipbuilding is a growing industry in Afalia since the creation of the Royal Afalian Navy in 2013.

As an aside, it is with great pleasure that I can openly admit that somehow Yohannes has managed to combine exceedingly rare fully original designs with an immeasurable devotion to detail and aesthetics with RBSG, a feat that usually could not happen without a dedicated intergovernmental effort involving at least one divine intervention. On all counts, job well done; your time in making this shall be compensated with your body weight in gold.

The Stridsvagn 107 was created to create a vehicle for the Riemaian national guard and other nations that was light enough to be dropped into areas via the Low Altitude Parachute Extraction System, and rugged enough to be able to stand up against many modern threats on the battlefield today, including helicopters and main battle tanks.

Note from the Manufacturer: The Stridsvagn 107 can take out a MBT, but it is highly advised that you do not attempt to do so except under dire circumstances.

Armor & Protection

The Stridsvagn 107 is mostly made up of Ti-4Al-2.5V-1.5Fe (92% Titanium, 4% Aluminum, 2.5% Vanadium, 1.5% Iron), which though is expensive, does have a noticeably better protection-volume and weight ratio in comparison to aluminum armor. The Steel chassis of the vehicle is seperated from the main titanium armor by a one inch thick layer of rubber, designed to minimize the damage of any projectile that penetrates the outer armor layer. In addition to the titanium and rubber, the Stridsvagn 107 also is equipped with sixteen lugs that can carry the weight of slat armor all the way around the vehicle if the user deems it necissary.

Armaments

The main armament of the Stridsvagn 107 is a 43 caliber 100mm rifled cannon, with a pepperpot muzzle brake fixed to the end. It is incapable of firing standard Russian 100mm shells, which are one piece shells. The cannon is also fully stabilized and is controlled using an integrated fire control system tied to the gunners terminal, which is connected to the camera located above the barrel of the main gun.

The standard coaxial armament of the Stridsvagn 107 is a 15.5x115mm BRG-15 heavy machine gun, which can be swapped out for any weapon that can fit within the same space, including compact Autocannons, General Purpose Machine Guns, and smaller caliber machine guns such as the PKM.

The Stridsvagn 107 is also equipped with a small Remote Control Turret that is used by the commander, which equipped with an all directional vision block, the radar housing for the APS, and a light machine gun, the standard which is a FN MAG chambered for the Riemaian 6.5x44mm intermediate cartridge.

On the left of the turret is the tanks quad pack of LAHAT Anti-Tank Guided Missiles, which can engage surface topics in top attack and direct attack, and helicopters in direct attack mode only. The system is reloaded by opening the rear of the box and pulling out the shells and replacing them with fresh ones, a task that can be performed in mere moments, though it is not recommended to do so in the front lines.

The Autoloader

The Riemakora AL-100-E5 Autoloader, designated as the "Aphid," is designed to fit into compact spaces, such as the turret aboard the Stridsvagn 107, and still maintain a 10rpm rate of fire. The Aphid autoloader consists of:
1) fourty slots with electricly powered rollers, 20 for shells and another 20 for propellant, equipped with weight sensors that determines the type of shell inside the slot from memory
2) two diagonally placed ramps where the shells and propellant are pushed onto and guided down to the loading arm
3) an electrically powered hanging arm that picks up and places shells into their appropriate slots during loading and when changing shells
4) a loading arm that resembles a retractable baton equipped with a tri forked extractor that pushes and pulls the shells along an extendable rail that leads to the breech of the cannon.
5) an aluminum frame that houses the entire system so it can all be taken out as one unit for ease in maintenance

Other notes: Due to size limitations, the Aphid is incapable of handling GLATGMs, though the main gun is capable of firing them if loaded by hand, such as the 9M117 Bastion.

Crew Compartment and Comfort

The crew compartment of the Stridsvagn 107 is fitted with a basic automatic fire supression system that uses compressed CO2 that can be triggered on demand via a button placed on the commanders terminal and near the drivers seat.

Seating aboard the Stridavan 107 is fixed to the floor of the vehicle, and has an aluminum frame, foam padding, and a corinthian leather (stretched vinyl) covering, and have waistbelts attached to them for crew safety. The drivers seat is located on the right side of the vehicle, with the drivers viewing port being located on that side. The gunner sits abreast of the driver, and has a remote control terminal that controls the main cannon and autoloader, the coaxial macinegun, and the BLATGMs. Finally, the commander sits behind the driver, and also has a remote control terminal that is linked to the RC turret ontop of the main turret, that controls his/her machinegun.

The Stridsvagn is also equipped with a STANAG 4447 compliant NBC system, which has a central air and heating system connected to it to provide internal climate control for crew comfort and safety.

There are two entrance and exit hatches aboard the Stridsvagn 107, one being the viewing port for the driver, and a 70cm hatch next to the remote controlled commanders turret, which is usually locked to prevent extremely rare and highly unlikely acts of theft and hijackings.

The Panzerschnellbrücke 2E (English: Rapid Bridge Tank 2E) is the primary rapid launched, tactical assault bridge tank of the Yohannesian Wehrmacht (Defence Forces). The Panzerschnellbrücke 2E was envisioned with the primary task to establish multiple crucial tactical bridgeheads which will influence the much larger, strategic initiative of its corresponding attached formation(s). In some cases, unfavourable tactical situation on the immediate field of operation will find one’s formation lacking upon the availability of a sizeable or qualitatively secured bridge. It is in such a situation that the Panzerschnellbrücke 2E will be most useful within. Its other usefulness is the fact that the bridge can rapidly be assembled and launched, at no more than five minutes, and can rapidly disengage at no more than nine minutes.

The Panzerschnellbrücke 2E utilises a modified chassis and is based of the state-of-the-art Pz.Kpf.W AY2-1E/G/L/M. The turret of the vehicle has been removed to accommodate for the attachment of the automatic special bridging carrier system in place of the turret. The arrangement of powerplant and transmission systems has been kept from that of the AY2-1E, alongside the arrangement of the Panthera Tigris armour.

The Panzerschnellbrücke 2E has a total crew number of two, which consists of that of the vehicle’s commander and associated gunner. The length of the folded carried bridge is approximately 17 metres, whilst fully expanded will be that of 26 metres. The carried bridge can accommodate one of any AY2 variants at any given time, whilst it can accommodate up to two AY1 variants simultaneously at any given time. The innovative, state-of-the-art Panthera Tigris bridging layer of the Panzerschnellbrücke 2E will fill its role as the primary tank-launched, rapid launched tactical assault bridge, of the Wehrmacht well into the future.

The Bergepanzer 2E (English: Armoured Recovery Vehicle 2E) is a heavy armoured recovery vehicular system developed by VMK, and is designated as the replacement of the Bergepanzer 1L series of armoured recovery vehicle within the Yohannesian Wehrmacht. The Bergepanzer 2E utilises a modified chassis and is based of the state-of-the-art Pz.Kpf.W AY2-1E Panthera Tigris.

The internal crew compartment structure of the original E variant was changed to accomodate and reflect the vehicle's role. Four crew members in total is designated towards the Bergepanzer 2E, that of the commander, driver and an addition of two specialised vehicular engineers. The vehicle's designated driver seat is switched to the front of the compartment, whilst that of the commander placed at the rear of the driver's seat. Four large doors, two on the surrounding left and right side of the compartment, has been integrated into the vehicle to accomodate for the crews' ease of entrance and departure.

The AY09 AFEDSS (AY09 Automatic Fire and Explosion Detection and Suppression System), a fully automatic combat operational detection, control, and suppression system, instantaneous and flexibly adjustable to that of a normal and combat mode setting, which can be altered as to the circumstances involved within the operational and tactical surrounding of the vehicle, has also been integrated. Furthermore as a benefit of the modifiable and integrated modular nature of the vehicle, the E variant's default AYTRACK associated sight systems and networking detection has been added towards the vehicle. As a result, the vehicle may operate 24 hours day and night effortlessly. Bergepanzer's right-structural crane has the capability to carry a total vehicular burden and weight of up to approximately 43,000 kg, as an addition to the hauler and lifting device to the front of the vehicle, with a carrying capacity of up to 40,000 kg.

The vehicle maintained the original E variant's armour layout, thus maintaining the excellent all-around protection trait and well-armoured characteristic of the Panthera Tigris. The E variant's integrated AYHK10 ADS was kept, although electronics and sensory unrelated to that of the vehicle's intended role was removed. The Forza FB-12TSD propulsion and 8GDCT automated double clutch transmission systems of the Panthera Tigris was also kept and moved towards the vehicle's rear, alongside the original E variant's VLT HPVS-MBT hydropneumatic active suspension system which was left unchanged. As a result, the vehicle maintain the excellent operational mobility and ground stability of the Panthera Tigris.

The Ignatz-Ewald 12.7mm AY14-HMG heavy machine gun is also utilised as a primary countermeasure reinforcement towards the vehicle. With a field of firing range of up to 2,800 metres and 570 rounds per minute rate of firing, the AY14-HMG was conceptualised as a vehicle mounted machine gun, although it can still be utilised by ground infantries, but are nonetheless deemed as ineffective in such a role, a negative side-effect of its heavy weight of approximately 50 kilograms.

The Panzerhaubitze 2E (English: Armoured Howitzer 2E) is a self propelled artillery system developed by VMK, and was designated as the new replacement of the Panzerhaubitze 1H (PzH 1H) series of mobile artillery within the Yohannesian Wehrmacht (Defence Forces). The Panzerhaubitze 2E utilises a modified chassis and is based of the state-of-the-art Pz.Kpf.W AY2-1E Panthera Tigris.

The Panzerhaubitze 2E incorporate an enlarged autofrettaged and fully-automatic ammunition handling and firing Halstenmetall AY3H 170/L50 cannon, modified from that of the AY-1E Panthera Tigris' AY7M 140/L50 gun to resemble its indirect power projectile role. It is also equipped with an extra ammunition information management sub-system alongside its modified AYTRACK fire control system, borrowed heavily from that of the Panthera Tigris. Simultaneously pre-programed together is the PzH 2E modified AY3H 170 mm compatible XA1Y-E2 automatic loading system of the original Panthera Tigris, with the ability to initiate MRSI (multiple round simultaneus impact) firing capability, which enable the PzH 2E to fire up to six rounds simultaneously within one targetted spot.

The AY3H is capable of throttling and exerting its rounds to over 40 km, with an extended projectile reach of over 50 km, a burst fire rate of nine rounds per minute and a sustained accurate firing rate of four rounds per minute. Developed with an indirect assault support role in mind, the AY3H is capable of handling multiple range of rounds essential in the ever growing scope of modern technological advancement, high explosive shells, infrared illumination rounds, multispectral smoke projectiles, being some example of rounds it utilised, and its thirty 170 x 1,000 mm rounds are stored within the modified XA1Y-E2 series of autoloading system, with its previous ability to fire its rounds if need be on the move terminated.

The PzH 2E's ammuntion resupply vehicle is based on the AY2 B variant chassis, with a thin 75 mm aluminium layered armour to provide protection against enemy infantry and light armoured vehicle small power projectile capability. Dubbed the AY2-T1, it is capable of delivering twenty rounds in five minutes' time, and is capable of delivering extra fuel to the PzH 2E mobile artillery system. It consists of three crews and is capable of holding up to 85 AY3H rounds.

The co-axial Halstenmetall 20mm AY1A TCR automatic cannon was removed, and replaced with a 12.7mm AY14-HMG which holds one thousand and two hundred rounds divided by two equal stock accomodation. The twelve laser detection countermeasure aerosol and smoke discharging-capabled grenades were also reduced to six, and the eight LA-420A1 Havik II BLATGM two-box launcher was removed.

The PzH 2E maintained the E variant's Adversus and Hauberk armour layout, thus maintaining the excellent all-around protection trait and well-armoured characteristic of the Panthera Tigris, consequently enabling the PzH 2E to become a mobile ground infantry assault support unit if need be. The E variant's integrated AYHK10 ADS was kept, although electronics and sensory unrelated to that of the PzH 2E's intended role was removed. The Forza FB-12TSD propulsion and 8GDCT automated double clutch transmission systems of the Panthera Tigris was also kept, alongside its VLT HPVS-MBT hydropneumatic active suspension system, which was moved to the front section of the mobile howitzer to accomodate for the change in its role, thus allowing the PzH 2E to maintain the excellent mobility of the Panthera Tigris.

All in all, the PzH 2E is seen as a step up over that of its predecessor Panzerhaubitze 1H (PzH 1H) series of mobile artillery system within the Yohannesian Wehrmacht (Defence Forces), and it was conceptualised and developed to fill a flexible role as the Wehrmacht's mean of a domestically manufactured Yohannesian primary assault gun if need be depending on the circumstance involved, ground formation offensive support unit, and an operational indirect mobile artillery system as its primary functional role.

The innovative, state-of-the-art Panthera Tigris self-propelled artillery and mobile gun howitzer variant of the Panzerhaubitze 2E will fill its role as the primary mobile artillery and gun system of the Wehrmacht well into the future.
