Yea, I believe it was like three trucks at the camp anyway, but it could be around 5 or so. Either way, I never really plan to use them anyway due to the hazardeous conditions of the roads in Fallout. And even then, we don't have anywhere we need to be fast in Fallout. Only thing I may ever use those trucks for, is transporting Artillery somewhere if we ever get any during the RP as we can't carry that by hand.

The hell? We have steel from the Pitt and blueprints (by now), but you won't let us make them. You guys give me crap and say I can't produce power armor, but you can make Vertibird's Willy nilly? It's OP

No, it was possible in the old RP canon, we just didn't have suppliers to our steel industry, besides, it'd take time for us to build them. And you can't say you'd have the blueprints by now because there is no canon blueprints in the east and the Enclave weren't able to produce vertibirds in the east. And it isn't willy nilly either, it'd take months to roll one out, and a lot of money, and we'd still need to decide on a fuel source. As for power armor, Raven Rock was the only production facility in the east that I am aware of, and well, you blew it up. But to recreate a facility built pre-war is something no faction will be able to do for a long while. Besides, the FRoM has no air support, even with a production program underway, by the time we have one ready to fly our conflict will likely be decided.

Wrong again bud, there are plenty of examples of fusion core reactors in Fallout 4. Vertibirds likely could run on one of those reactors seeing as they power buildings and power armor, so it would be very difficult and take a lot of time, but we could build one eventually. But before I get into describing it, I'd like to ask you this; do you know a thing or two about mechanical engineering? (and I ask this sincerely, not as a gotcha question)

The Brotherhood is just now getting towards the end of the program to produce Power Armor, and it's all Enclave APAM II. I'd say if you're making Vertibirds it takes 10-12 months for each one.

At least for the first batch of two, I agree wholeheartedly, and I suppose it is fair to say that the BoS will be able to begin limited scale production in the next 3-4 months in the IC. However, it would take a while for the armor to be issued out and then for some to be ordered to be sent west. I'd like to assume there are some threats to the BoS in the east in the same way we see such issues in the west with multiple threatening factions.

Please provide a source for there to be functional vehicles used by the NCR in the RP or Official Fallout Canon other than captured vertibirds. Otherwise any vehicles that are not Vertibirds are null.

While I can't say I can see why you would have the blueprints by now, nor can I see why you would have steel from the Pitt, the reason why we and I won' allow power armour to be produced is because the facilities are no longer operable for that.

There aren't facilities for Vertibirds but you people are making them

Interesting. Okay, you can have a set of supply trucks. With this knowledge I suppose we'd have a few captured ones from during the revolution. The BoS conversely wouldn't need one atm due to their air support so they may have one if that. This makes things more interesting. I'll say that the NCR in California has ~4 Trucks and 1-2 militarized vehicles, perhaps with machine-gun turrets.

I don't have a working knowledge of the construction of helicopters and planes, but I can see that there would be a significant difference between repair and construction.
