Break down your arms and upkeep more. For al I know that's all arms, no upkeep.

Also, hate to do this, but we don;t allow fighter jets, so those Warthogs? No dice, hombre. Gotta get creative. I have Sturm turning a Bell jetRanger into a weapons platform that will rival the Kiowa.

As for pilots and ground crew, numbers are good. But think of everything. For example, should you find a civilian jet you can mount weapons on and bastardize into a CAS role, how will you do an engine refit? Manually? Gonna need a forklift. Going to do it in a rainstorm? Gonna need a hangar.

Etc.

Also, your CEO work fro free? Got to have salaries. See Sturm and Chevaliers for good examples.

You could always turn a transport plan into a Mad-Max kind of AC-130 parallel.

Other than that, you have an excellent understanding of what we're looking for, just got to refine your things.

The only thing I was going to explain was that I was planning on having my ground crew work double roles. That is, the CEO and Officers worked as ground crewmen.

Alright, so lets scratch the Warthogs and put in something just as deadly but perhaps a little more acceptable.

Starting Equipment

• Bell AH-1 "Supercobras" - 2x - $10,700,000 each = $21,400,000
• Hangar - Washington Dulles International Airport - $450/year = $900
• Arms - 2x - $300,000 each = $600,000
• Upkeep - 2x - $300,000 each = $600,000

One 20MM turreted cannon with 750 rounds
Four external wing stations that can fire 2.75"/5.0" rockets and precision guided missiles
TOW/Hellfire (point target/anti-armor)
Sidewinder (anti-air)
Sidearm (anti-radar).

Starting Personnel

• 2x Pilots - $150,000/year salary = $300,000 per year
• 10x Ground Crew - $150,000/year salary = $1,500,000 per year

Total Expenses For Year 1 - Barring Unfortunate Accidents - 23,200,900

Alright, as for your explanation that works, I like that the CEO gets their hands dirty.

I'd suggest buying a hangar, most companies have, rather than renting one (means if you ever go deep into the red it could be repossessed by SHield Financial trust).

As for the helos, pricing is decent, I'd suggest one thing though. Upgrade a civilian model aircraft. If you really want you can use the SuperCobra, and by all means do, just remember that if you put the same sensor and electronics suite onto a civilian model, and all the weapons, you'll come out cheaper. And you'll have a faster helicopter, or better fuel economy depending on the civilian helo.

Other than that, just need a maintenance vehicle still. Also, say your Cobras need to get some where, how will they do so? Hop from airbase to airbase? Sturm has a transport plane with the dimensions to fit an armed Bell JetRanger, so all they have to do is roll it out on the tarmac and they're ready to go in minutes. Versus you, where you may get to a foreign country and not be able to support the helos.

Thoughts on this?
