Dear Customer,

Welcome to the Eagleland National Arms Manufacturing Industry (ENAMI) storefront. I would like to introduce you to my company. ENAMI was founded in 1935, as the Eagleland's national arms manufacturing industry. We are the second largest arms manufacturing industries in the Unified Realm, after LG Defense Systems Inc., which you should know very well. Our company originally was Government-Owned, but economic difficulties in the late 80s led to the decision to privatise the company. Since then, profits for this company increased dramatically.

But before that, please allow me to introduce you to our corporation's history. ENAMI (known in Greek as ΕΑΒΠΟ) is a Limited Liability Company established in it's modern form in 1946. Before ENAMI, 4 arms manufacturing companies existed in the Eagleland; Hefaistos Armaments (which would produce small arms), Lakedaimonion Viomichania (which produced land vehicles), Posidonos Politeia Incorporated (which constructed warships) and Icarou Aeroporia (which produced the first aircraft made in the Unified Realm). The merger occurred at the end of the Seventh Civil War (1937-1947), in which time the 4 companies were urged by economic, national and diplomatic purposes to merge with each other and to create ENAMI. From this day forward, our company was formed.

Production of weapons at a mass scale continued throughout the turbulent for our nation 20th century. From the day of our merger to today, the Eagleland has been in 6, victorious for our country, wars, 4 of which were fought overseas. During this period, our country also suffered a devastating 2 year long dictatorship, which ruined our economy and led millions of Eaglelanders into poverty, while our company was nationalised. Our company, however, with it's influence in our country, as soon as the dictatorship collapsed, was privatized and once again flourished, resulting in higher wages and a rapid increase in our country's standard of living. Throughout our history, we have contributed to our nation's war and economic effort, as well as continuing the tradition of weapon-making processes that date back to our land's colonisation by our Ancestors.

And now, taking into account the nullification of Paragraphs 7, 8 and 9A of Law 7543 of 1921, which forbade weapons trading with other countries on Saturday, the eighteenth of February of Two Thaousand and Twelve, our company proudly announces the authorisation order for the export of weapon systems to foreign countries. This means that our company is no longer ready to help only the Eagleland. We will also support your nation in times of adversity, peace and even preparations for war.

In our storefront which we provide to you,you will understand thatwe sell a large variety of weaponry, from Assault Rifles to Bayonets, from Tanks to MRAVs, from Attack Helicopters to Large Transports, from Aircraft Carriers to Small Corvettes and from Portable AT missile launchers to state-of-the-art cruise missiles. We even produce old weaponry no longer in use, such as the Model 15 Bolt Action Rifle, an icon of ENAMI.

But we do not just sell weapons systems. If you state that you wish us to build a factory in your country and have a Domestic Production Rights license of anything we sell here, we can assemble ordered weapons systems in your own country, thus providing work for unemployed citizens. Any factories we build do not have standard costs; these are to be negotiated with both your Government and our company. In addition to that, we can provide experts on such weapon systems so as to instruct your military on the utilisation of your newly acquired weapons, at no extra charge, and, on demand.

Below you will find a list of our products. We hope our products can cover and/or supplement your nation's defense needs.

Thank you for choosing our company, the Eagleland National Arms Manufacturing Industry.

Signed,
Mixalis Papagos
CEO of ENAMI

Model 35 Assault Rifle
Image


Overview
The Model 35 Assault Rifle is the latest ENAMI design. Based on examples from other countries, such as the Libertarian Governance and Lyras, ENAMI has develloped an assault rifle which is simple to operate and utilise, without sacrificing effectiveness or driving the cost of production up. It fires the 6.3x40mm caseless round, utilising a High Ignition Temperature Propellant (HITP). This Caseless round is lighter and smaller than cased ammunition of the same calibre, therefore increasing the amount of rounds that can be carried for the same amount of weight or included in magasines. It features 4 picatinny rails for mounting optics and scopes; The Model 35 depicted is an example of the versitality of the weapon; Night Vision Sight, Lasers, Underbarrel Grenade Launchers. All these and more can be attached to the weapon, or detached from it, with ease. Using both electric and mechanical ignition systems, this weapon can be used in any and all situations, including after an actual EMP attack. The Weapon comes in 3 forms: Assault Rifle, Carbine and Designated Marskman Rifle, each with different barrel lengths.

Background
The Eagleland Armed Forces has a large number of soldiers, non-commisioned officers and commissioned officers filling it's ranks; the Land Forces Alone, number at 16 million Regulars, 2 million Reserves and 1 million Conscripts. All of them must be armed with weaponry. The R2 Advanced Weapon System is an excellent weapon, but the fact that it is exepensive makes it an economic strain to supply and field in massive numbers - an R2 suited to a soldier's needs costs around 72.000 NSD per rifle. Multiplied by 16 million, and for a defense budget of around 1,2 Trillion NSD, the amount of money is excessively expensive. ENAMI has taken up the task of develloping a new assault rifle, which utilises caseless ammunition, is simple to operate, to construct and therefore to feild in mass numbers without paying a large amount of money for their maintenance.

Action
The Model 35 uses a Short-Stroke Gas-Piston, Rotating Bolt form of operation to chamber the round. With a short-stroke system, the piston moves separately from the bolt group. It directly pushes the bolt group parts. The energy is imparted in a short, violent push and the motion of the gas piston is then arrested allowing the bolt carrier assembly to continue through the operating cycle through kinetic energy. The bolt, upon contact with the breech, rotates and locks into place, being held in place by lugs attached to the breech or barrel extension. Upon closing, the bolt passes through the slots cut in the front of the barrel extension, and then rotates; at this point it is locked in place. The bolt remains locked until the action is cycled, either manually by the operator, or mechanically by the gas created by discharging the rifle pushing on the bolt carrier, which then rotates the bolt and unlocks it from the breech so that a new round can be chambered.

The rounds are ignited via an electronic or a mechanical system of operation. The Electronic System of Operation works as follows: Upon pulling the trigger, an electronic signal is sent to a special mechanism which activates the firing pin. Once the pin is activated, it then in turn sends a small electrical current to cause detonation of the primer, providing the thermal impulse necessary to ignite the propellant which then deflagrates, producing pressure to the round's intergrated propellant. The round is then fired, the primer is pulled back and the process repeats the next time the trigger is pulled or if it's kept pulled. Since the design fires caseless rounds, there is no need for an ejection port (although there is one, just in case the weapon jams), therefore the next round is simply inserted into the chamber. The Electronic system of operation works on batteries, and a gauge is displayed on the buttstock, giving the operator a clear picture of the weapon's status and whether he needs to recharge or replace the battery. In the former event, a recharge hole is under the gauge. The Mechanical Operation is far simpler. Once the trigger is pulled, the firing pin mechanically expands the primer, which ignites the round by making contact with the charge, much like in cased assault rifles. The round is fired, the primer is moved back and the cycle repeats. Rate of fire in both modes is 850 rounds per minute. A lever can be used to switch between electronic and mechanical ignition systems.

To avoid cookoff of caseless rounds a denatured hexogen propellant with a special binder and coating for the ammunition has increased the spontaneous ignition temperature to 371 °C. A flutted barrel for added safety and efficiency has been incorporated in the Model 35. The flutted barrel will dissipate heat quickly, as the heat is being allowed to reach the outside temperature at a faster rate by removing materials. If, for any reason, the weapon jams, by pulling the charging handle, the round is simply ejected from the rifle via the ejection port.

A patented EM-5 Dry Lubricant system is used to coat all internal parts and the barrel. EM-5 is the official designation for the controlled atmospheric application of a proprietary formulated, modified tungsten disulfide. When the tungsten disulfide is applied in lamellar form through the precision process it forms a thin, uniform coating that forms a molecular bond with the substrate, and does not chip, flake or peel. It is inert, inorganic, non-toxic, non-corrosive and resistant to most petrochemical fuels, solvents and acids. However, it is compatible will all wet lubricants.

Ammunition
The Model 35 Assault Rifle uses caseless 6.3x40mm rounds, with an intergrated HITP propellant, which in essence is a formulation using 80% HMX with an elastomer binder in a hydrophobic polymerwhich. 6.3mm Ammunition for the Model 35 come in the following forms:

6.3x40mm FMJ
Full Metal Jacket. It is refered to as the "standard" round for the weapon. In the AR and DMR versions of the rifle it has a stopping power of 4502 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1032 m/s and a maximum effective range of 800 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can adequately achieve penetration of body armor.

6.3x40mm FMJ - Incendiary
Full Metal Jacket Incendiary. It is refered to as a modified version of the "standard" round for the weapon. In the AR and DMR versions of the rifle it has a stopping power of 4.502 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.032 m/s and a maximum effective range of 800 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal, encoated with White Phosphorus. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can achieve penetration of body armor with ease. It causes burn damage to the target, amplifying the force he receives from the bullet and makes recovery more difficult.

6.3x40mm TR
This is a rubber round, designed for training purposes. The rear side of the round is covered in metal, so that the propellant's ignition does not tear the rubber apart. However, as the metal still remains and that the rubber can be torn apart when subjected to immense air resistance means that it can be dangerous, since the target may receive the metal part at high velocities should the rubber be torn and that it's range is significantly reduced to 400 meters in the AR and DMR versions of the rifle. When training with this kind of ammunition, it is recommended that body armor, knee and ankle guards, eye protection and helmet must be worn at all times during such training.

6.3x40mm HP
Hollow-Point ammunition. In the AR and DMR versions it has a stopping power of 4.302 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 876 m/s and an effective range of 650 meters. This is an expanding bullet that has a pit or hollowed out shape in its tip, generally intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target in order to decrease penetration and disrupt more tissue as it travels through the target, causing immense damage.

6.3x40mm AP
Armor Piercing Ammunition. In the AR and DMR versions of the rifle it has a stopping power of 4.502 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.032 m/s and a maximum effective range of 800 meters. This round has a "soft" lead core, encased with Tungsten. This allows for excellent Penetration of Body Armor as well as targets behind light armored vehicles and cover. When used properly, it can be used to penetrate the armor of lightly armored vehicles.

Ergonomics
The Model 35 Assault Rifle includes 4 Picatinny Rail systems for mounting optics, as well as pop-up fore and rear sights in case of an Emergency. As mentioned above, there is a battery gauge display and a battery charge hole on the right side of the weapon. The ejection port is also to the right side of the weapon. It has an adjustable length buttstock. The pistol grip is made of polymer. The weapon includes a bullet counter, which, at any given time, counts the number of rounds in a magasine and there are threads so as a supressor can be mounted. This weapon is compatible with STANAG magasines. The fire rate selector is ambidextrous.

Model 25 Sidearm
Image


Overview
The Model 25 is a short recoil operated, locked breech caseless pistol, designed to fire caseless rounds. Specifically, it is designed to fire the 10x25mm 200 gr caseless round, utilising a High Ignition Temperature Propellant (HITP). It is light; unloaded weight is at 0.95 Kilograms and it is versatile; it includes lower rails for mounting flashlights and lasers, and it includes thereads to mount a supressor. Yet for all this, the 10x25mm standard round has a stopping power of 1.184 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 426.7 m/s and with an effective range of 100 meters. This makes the pistol more powerful than it's predecessor, which utilised the .45 ACP, which is in all means inferior to the cartridge used in the Model 25.

Background
The sidearm of the Eagleland Armed Forces was the legendary Model 24, which utilised the .45 ACP round. It's reliability and stopping power made it popular amongst soldiers, who were impressed by this pistol. However, as in the Unified Realm cased rounds gradually became phased out, the need to replace the Model 24 was evident, and so ENAMI began develloping the Model 25 sidearm in 2007. Devellopment was compete in 2009. As of 2011, the Model 25 is now the standard sidearm of the Eagleland Armed Forces, favored especially by Special Forces for its advantages over the Model 24, like the reduced weight of the pistol and of caseless cartridges, meaning that the individual could carry more ammunition for the same amount of weight. Using both electric and mechanical ignition systems, this weapon can be used in any and all situations, including after an actual EMP attack.

Action
The basic principle of the pistol is recoil operation. As the expanding combustion gases force the bullet down the barrel, they give reverse momentum to the slide and barrel which are locked together during this portion of the firing cycle. After the bullet has left the barrel, the slide and barrel continue rearward a short distance. At this point, a link pivots the barrel down, out of locking recesses in the slide, and brings the barrel to a stop. The slide stops and is then propelled forward by a spring to strip a fresh cartridge from the magazine and feed it into the firing chamber. At the forward end of its travel, the slide locks into the barrel and is ready to fire again.

The rounds are ignited via an electronic or a mechanical system of operation. The Electronic System of Operation works as follows: Upon pulling the trigger, an electronic signal is sent to a special mechanism which activates the firing pin. Once the pin is activated, it then in turn sends a small electrical current to cause detonation of the primer, providing the thermal impulse necessary to ignite the propellant which then deflagrates, producing pressure to the round's intergrated propellant. The round is then fired, the primer is pulled back and the process repeats the next time the trigger is pulled. Since the design fires caseless rounds, there is no need for an ejection port (however, it does have one, but it is only used when the weapon is jammed), therefore the next round is simply inserted into the chamber. The Electronic system of operation works on batteries, and a gauge is displayed on the slide, giving the operator a clear picture of the weapon's status and whether he needs to recharge or replace the battery. In the former event, a recharge hole is under the gauge. The Mechanical Operation is far simpler. Once the trigger is pulled, the firing pin mechanically expands the primer, which ignites the round by making contact with the charge, much like in cased pitols. The round is fired, the primer is moved back and the cycle repeats. A small button can be used to switch between electronic and mechanical ignition systems.

To avoid cookoff of caseless rounds a denatured hexogen propellant with a special binder and coating for the ammunition has increased the spontaneous ignition temperature to 371 °C. A flutted barrel for added safety and efficiency has been incorporated in the Model 25. The flutted barrel will dissipate heat quickly, as the heat is being allowed to reach the outside temperature at a faster rate by removing materials. If, for any reason, there is a jam, by pulling back the slide, the ejection system is activated and the round is simply ejected off the weapon.

A patented EM-5 Dry Lubricant system is used to coat all internal parts and the barrel. EM-5 is the official designation for the controlled atmospheric application of a proprietary formulated, modified tungsten disulfide. When the tungsten disulfide is applied in lamellar form through the precision process it forms a thin, uniform coating that forms a molecular bond with the substrate, and does not chip, flake or peel. It is inert,inorganic, non-toxic, non-corrosive and resistant to most petrochemical fuels, solvents and acids. However, it is compatible will all wet lubricants.

Ammunition
The 10x25mm 200gr caseless has an intergrated HITP propellant, which in essence is a formulation using 80% HMX with an elastomer binder in a hydrophobic polymerwhich. 10x25mm ammunition for the Model 25 comes in the following types:

10x25mm 200gr FMJ
Full Metal Jacket. It is refered to as the "standard" round for the pistol. It has a stopping power of 1.184 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 426.7 m/s and with an effective range of 100 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can adequately achieve penetration of body armor.

10x25mm 200gr HP
Hollow-Point ammunition. It has a stopping power of 867 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 387.9 m/s and an effective range of 45 meters. This is an expanding bullet that has a pit or hollowed out shape in its tip, generally intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target in order to decrease penetration and disrupt more tissue as it travels through the target, causing immense damage.

Ergonomics
The weapon is designed to be ergonomical, in such way that the user may not be disturbed by minor problems related to weapon construction. Locking is performed by engaging a rectangular breech with the ejection port. The slide stop can be mounted on either side by the user. The manual safety is ambidextrous and is located below the slide, above the grip. The hammer is partially concealed at the sides to prevent catching on clothes and equipment. The magazine release is located in the base of the trigger guard. The front sight is formed as a fixed part of the slide and is non-adjustable. The back sight is adjustable for windage (dovetail type). Both feature white contrast elements. There are threads to mount a supressor. There is also a rail system underneath the weapon, for mounting lasers and flashlights. As mentioned above, there is a battery gauge display and a battery charge hole on the right side of the weapon. There is also a bullet counter which, at any given time, displays the number of rounds in the magazine.

Model 56 Submachinegun
Image


Overview
The Model 56 is a submachinegun designed to fire 10x25mm 200 gr caseless round, utilising a High Ignition Temperature Propellant (HITP). Despite it's conservative rate of fire, the weapon has a stopping power of 1.184 Joules at an effective range of 200 meters (FMJ rounds). It has an unusual recoil and in-line design to reduce the amount of recoil the shooter receives. It includes a folding stock, 2 rail systems for mounting optics and threads for mounting supressors, thus increasing it's versitality. Like all ENAMI small arms, the weapon is designed to utilise both an Electronic and Mechanical Ignition System, therefore this weapon can be used in any and all situations, including after an actual EMP attack.

Background
The Model 56 Submachinegun was made as an alternative to the MP7 PDW of LGDS in the Unified Realm. Even though the MP7 PDW is very compact, the small round it fired could penetrate body armor, however, it did not have the necessary killing power required to take down an opponent. Devellopment began in 2008 and finished in 2010. Since then it has seen service with the Armed Forces, Law Enforcement and even Personal Security Services of the Eagleland. It is characterized for it's low recoil and high stopping power.

Action
The Model 56 SMG is an off-axis, delayed blowback operated, selective fire submachine gun. John Browning developed this simple method whereby the axis of bolt movement was not in line with that of the bore. The result was that a small rearward movement of the bolt in relation to the bore axis required a greater movement along the axis of bolt movement, essentially magnifying the resistance of the bolt without increasing its mass. It fires from closed bolt for enhanced first-shot accuracy. The weapon is designed to utilise the Kriss Super V action, which is an articulated mechanism allowing the block and bolt to recoil not just rearward like most other firearms, but back and then 'vectored' down off-axis along a rail system behind the weapon's magazine well. The Model 56's barrel is in line with the shooter's shoulder, but also in line with the shooter's hand. Combined, these factors reduce felt recoil and muzzle climb by eliminating the distance between the shooter's hand and the bore axis along with the action of the Super V Mechanism.

The rounds are ignited via an electronic or a mechanical system of operation. The Electronic System of Operation works as follows: Upon pulling the trigger, an electronic signal is sent to a special mechanism which activates the firing pin. Once the pin is activated, it then in turn sends a small electrical current to cause detonation of the primer, providing the thermal impulse necessary to ignite the propellant which then deflagrates, producing pressure to the round's intergrated propellant. The round is then fired, the primer is pulled back and the process repeats the next time the trigger is pulled. Since the design fires caseless rounds, there is no need for an ejection port (however, the weapon has two ejection ports, but they are only used when the weapon is jammed), therefore the next round is simply inserted into the chamber. The Electronic system of operation works on batteries, and a gauge is displayed on the right side of the gun, giving the operator a clear picture of the weapon's status and whether he needs to recharge or replace the battery. In the former event, a recharge hole is under the gauge. The Mechanical Operation is far simpler. Once the trigger is pulled, the firing pin mechanically expands the primer, which ignites the round by making contact with the charge, much like in cased SMGs. The round is fired, the primer is moved back and the cycle repeats. Rate of fire is 950 rounds per minute. A small button can be used to switch between electronic and mechanical ignition systems.

To avoid cookoff of caseless rounds a denatured hexogen propellant with a special binder and coating for the ammunition has increased the spontaneous ignition temperature to 371 °C. A flutted barrel for added safety and efficiency has been incorporated in the Model 56. The flutted barrel will dissipate heat quickly, as the heat is being allowed to reach the outside temperature at a faster rate by removing materials. If, for any reason, there is a jam, by pulling back the slide, the ejection system is activated and the round is simply ejected off the weapon.

A patented EM-5 Dry Lubricant system is used to coat all internal parts and the barrel. EM-5 is the official designation for the controlled atmospheric application of a proprietary formulated, modified tungsten disulfide. When the tungsten disulfide is applied in lamellar form through the precision process it forms a thin, uniform coating that forms a molecular bond with the substrate, and does not chip, flake or peel. It is inert,inorganic, non-toxic, non-corrosive and resistant to most petrochemical fuels, solvents and acids. However, it is compatible will all wet lubricants.

Ammunition
The Model 56 SMG is chambered in such way so as to utilise the 10x25mm caseless round. It has an intergrated HITP propellant, which in essence is a formulation using 80% HMX with an elastomer binder in a hydrophobic polymerwhich. 10x25mm ammunition for the Model 56 comes in the following types:

10x25mm 200gr FMJ
Full Metal Jacket. It is refered to as the "standard" round for the pistol. It has a stopping power of 1.184 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 426.7 m/s and with an effective range of 55 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can adequately achieve penetration of body armor.

10x25mm 200gr HP
Hollow-Point ammunition. It has a stopping power of 867 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 387.9 m/s and an effective range of 20 meters. This is an expanding bullet that has a pit or hollowed out shape in its tip, generally intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target in order to decrease penetration and disrupt more tissue as it travels through the target, causing immense damage.

Ergonomics
The Model 56 SMG includes 2 Picatinny Rail systems for mounting optics. As mentioned above, there is a battery gauge display and a battery charge hole on the right side of the weapon. Unlike most ENAMI small arms, the Model 56 has two ejection ports; one to the left and one to the right side of the weapon - a selector allows the user to select in which should a jammed round be ejected. It has a folding buttstock. The pistol grip is made of polymer. The weapon includes a bullet counter, which, at any given time, counts the number of rounds in a magasine and there are threads so as a supressor can be mounted. The fire rate selector is ambidextrous.

Model 45 Light Machinegun
Image


Overview
The Model 45 LMG is designed to fire the 6.3x40mm caseless round, utilising a High Ignition Temperature Propellant (HITP). This Caseless round is lighter and smaller than cased ammunition of the same calibre, therefore increasing the amount of rounds that can be carried for the same amount of weight or included in magasines. It is light; unloaded weight is 4.5 Kg or about 9 lbs. It features 2 picatinny rails for mounting optics and scopes; As depicted on the picture above, the rear and fore sights are removable, and the bipod can be folded and used as a hand grip, but it is also removable. Using both electric and mechanical ignition systems, this weapon can be used in any and all situations, including after an actual EMP attack.

Background
The need for a light machinegun is evident in armies all over the globe. A light machinegun can put down supressive fire on the enemy, at a fraction of the weight and size of Heavy Machineguns. However, only a handful of examples are modified to utilise caseless ammunition. The Eagleland Armed Forces' transition from cased to caseless ammunition in both Regular and Reserve types of service have left in many cases older cased ammunition LMGs in service. ENAMI began devellopment in 2008 originally to become an innovative design for the Armed Forces, however, that transition meant that when the Model 45 LMG was introduced in May 2010 the design went immidiately into mass production.

Action
The Model 45 is a belt-fed, long-stroke, gas-piston operated light machinegun, which uses a swinging chamber. The chamber swings around a longitudinal pivot; it swings from horizontally parallel with the pivot (the firing position), to vertically parallel (the feed position), and back again. The long-stroke gas-piston is used to operate this action. A round is fed into the chamber at the feed position using a rammer, and the new round also serves to push a spent or dud round out of the far end of the chamber. During firing, another mechanism seals the chamber, then it is unsealed, so the feeding process can be repeated. The advantages of this whole action include its simplicity and its isolation of the chamber from barrel heat.

The rounds are ignited via an electronic or a mechanical system of operation. The Electronic System of Operation works as follows: Upon pulling the trigger, an electronic signal is sent to a special mechanism which activates the firing pin. Once the pin is activated, it then in turn sends a small electrical current to cause detonation of the primer, providing the thermal impulse necessary to ignite the propellant which then deflagrates, producing pressure to the round's intergrated propellant. The round is then fired, the primer is pulled back and the process repeats the next time the trigger is pulled or if it's kept pulled. Since the design fires caseless rounds, there is no need for an ejection port (although it has one, just in the event of the weapon jamming), therefore the next round is simply inserted into the chamber. The Electronic system of operation works on batteries, and a gauge is displayed on the buttstock, giving the operator a clear picture of the weapon's status and whether he needs to recharge or replace the battery. In the former event, a recharge hole is under the gauge. The Mechanical Operation is far simpler. Once the trigger is pulled, the firing pin mechanically expands the primer, which ignites the round by making contact with the charge, much like in cased assault rifles. The round is fired, the primer is moved back and the cycle repeats. Rate of fire in both modes is 600 rounds per minute. A lever can be used to switch between electronic and mechanical ignition systems.

To avoid cookoff of caseless rounds a denatured hexogen propellant with a special binder and coating for the ammunition has increased the spontaneous ignition temperature to 371 °C. A flutted barrel for added safety and efficiency has been incorporated in the Model 25. The flutted barrel will dissipate heat quickly, as the heat is being allowed to reach the outside temperature at a faster rate by removing materials. If, for any reason, the weapon jams, by pulling the charging handle, the round is simply ejected off the LMG via the ejection port.

A patented EM-5 Dry Lubricant system is used to coat all internal parts and the barrel. EM-5 is the official designation for the controlled atmospheric application of a proprietary formulated, modified tungsten disulfide. When the tungsten disulfide is applied in lamellar form through the precision process it forms a thin, uniform coating that forms a molecular bond with the substrate, and does not chip, flake or peel. It is inert,inorganic, non-toxic, non-corrosive and resistant to most petrochemical fuels, solvents and acids. However, it is compatible will all wet lubricants.

Ammunition
The Model 45 LMG uses caseless 6.3x40mm rounds, with an intergrated HITP propellant, which in essence is a formulation using 80% HMX with an elastomer binder in a hydrophobic polymerwhich. 6.3mm Ammunition for the Model 45 come in the following forms:

6.3x40mm FMJ
Full Metal Jacket. It is refered to as the "standard" round for the weapon. It has a stopping power of 4502 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1032 m/s and a maximum effective range of 800 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can adequately achieve penetration of body armor.

6.3x40mm FMJ - Incendiary
Full Metal Jacket Incendiary. It is refered to as a modified version of the "standard" round for the weapon. It has a stopping power of 4.502 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.032 m/s and a maximum effective range of 800 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal, encoated with White Phosphorus. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can achieve penetration of body armor with ease. It causes burn damage to the target, amplifying the force he receives from the bullet and makes recovery more difficult.

6.3x40mm TR
This is a rubber round, designed for training purposes. The rear side of the round is covered in metal, so that the propellant's ignition does not tear the rubber apart. However, as the metal still remains and that the rubber can be torn apart when subjected to immense air resistance means that it can be dangerous, since the target may receive the metal part at high velocities should the rubber be torn and that it's range is significantly reduced to 400 meters. When training with this kind of ammunition, it is recommended that body armor, knee and ankle guards, eye protection and helmet must be worn at all times during such training.

6.3x40mm HP
Hollow-Point ammunition. It has a stopping power of 4.302 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 876 m/s and an effective range of 650 meters. This is an expanding bullet that has a pit or hollowed out shape in its tip, generally intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target in order to decrease penetration and disrupt more tissue as it travels through the target, causing immense damage.

6.3x40mm AP
Armor Piercing Ammunition. It has a stopping power of 4.502 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.032 m/s and a maximum effective range of 800 meters. This round has a "soft" lead core, encased with Tungsten. This allows for excellent Penetration of Body Armor as well as targets behind light armored vehicles and cover. When used properly, it can be used to penetrate the armor of lightly armored vehicles.

Ergonomics
The Model 45 is a non-bullpup light-machinegun and has many of the capabilities of other light machine guns, such as a quick-change barrel and a vented fore-grip. It includes a rounds counter and battery-charge counter and charge hole, as mentioned above. The picatinny rails can be used with most optics, and the rear and fore sights can be removed to make room for Specialised Sights. The Bipod can be folded and locked in it's folding position, so as to be used as a hand grip. However, it is also removable. As mentioned above, the ejection port is on the right side of the gun.

Model 44 General Purpose Machinegun
Image


Overview
The Model 44 GPMG is the Eagleland's version of the legendary MG-42 LMG used in WW2 and of it's modern "son", the MG-3. Simplicity is what characterizes the Model 44; it's construction includes less external parts, making it lighter to use. In addition, with less parts the weapon is more reliable. Even though it's reliable firing mechanism remains virtually the same, it has been slightly modified so as to fire caseless rounds, but it can also fire cased rounds as well. Specifically, it fires the 7.62x51mm caseless round, with immense stopping power and enhanced penetration capability. The weapon's heat is simply allowed to exit the barrel. Unlike it's German cousins, however, the weapon accepts only Drum Magazines of 120 rounds, meaning that the weapon can empty it in seconds. However, there is an advantage; it does not require a belt to feed the weapon, thereby eliminating the chance of the belt from "snapping off", as by eliminating the belt feed system, this weapon (in very extreme cases) can be used indoors without that problem (although it's not reccomended).

Background
The Eagleland Armed Forces have a large number of soldiers, non-commisioned officers and commissioned officers filling it's ranks; the Land Forces Alone, number at 16 million Regulars, 2 million Reserves and 1 million Conscripts. All of them must be armed with weaponry. The R2 Advanced Weapon System is an excellent weapon, but the fact that it is exepensive - an R2 suited to a soldier's needs costs around 72.000 NSD per rifle. Multiplied by 16 million, and for a defense budget of around 1,2 Trillion NSD, the amount of money is excessively expensive. ENAMI has taken up the task of develloping a new General Purpose Machinegun, which utilises caseless ammunition, is simple to operate, to construct and therefore to feild in mass numbers without paying a large amount of money for their maintenance.

Action
The Model 44 is roller-locked and recoil-operated (short recoil) with gas assist. It fires belt fed 7.62x51mm caseless ammunition from an open bolt. The roller-locked bolt assembly consists of a bolt head, two rollers, a striker sleeve, bolt body, and a large return spring, which is responsible for pushing the bolt assembly into battery (the locked position) and returning it there when it is unlocked and pushed backwards by the recoil of firing or by the charging handle. As the striker sleeve is movable back and forth within the bolt assembly, the return spring is also responsible for pushing the striker sleeve forward during locking. The bolt assembly locks with the barrel's breech via a prong type barrel extension behind the breech. As it is recoil-operated and fired from an open bolt, the weapon must be manually charged with the side-mounted charging handle.

The roller-locked recoil operation functions as follows: two cylindrical rollers, positioned in tracks on the bolt head, are pushed outwards into matching tracks in the barrel extension by the striker sleeve and lock the bolt in place against the breech. Upon firing, rearward force from the recoil of the ignition pushes the striker assembly back and allows the rollers to move inwards, back to their previous position, unlocking the bolt head and allowing the bolt assembly to recoil. The return spring then pushes the bolt assembly forwards again, pushing a new round out of the belt into the breech, and the sequence repeats as long as the trigger is depressed. The Model 44 is only capable of fully automatic fire; single shots are exceptionally difficult, even for experienced operators, due to the weapon's rate of fire. The weapon features a recoil booster at the muzzle to increase rearwards force due to recoil, therefore improving functional reliability and rate of fire. The Model 44 fires from an open bolt, meaning the bolt is held in a rearward position when the trigger is not depressed. Depressing the trigger releases the bolt assembly, of which the firing pin is a component.

The rounds are ignited via an electronic or a mechanical system of operation. The Electronic System of Operation works as follows: Upon pulling the trigger, an electronic signal is sent to a special mechanism which activates the firing pin. Once the pin is activated, it then in turn sends a small electrical current to cause detonation of the primer, providing the thermal impulse necessary to ignite the propellant which then deflagrates, producing pressure to the round's intergrated propellant. The round is then fired, the primer is pulled back and the process repeats the next time the trigger is pulled or if it's kept pulled. Since the design fires caseless rounds, there is no need for an ejection port (although it has one, just in the event of the weapon jamming), therefore the next round is simply inserted into the chamber. The Electronic system of operation works on batteries, and a gauge is displayed on the buttstock, giving the operator a clear picture of the weapon's status and whether he needs to recharge or replace the battery. In the former event, a recharge hole is under the gauge. The Mechanical Operation is far simpler. Once the trigger is pulled, the firing pin mechanically expands the primer, which ignites the round by making contact with the charge, much like in cased assault rifles. The round is fired, the primer is moved back and the cycle repeats. Rate of fire in both modes is 1.200 rounds per minute. A lever can be used to switch between electronic and mechanical ignition systems.

To avoid cookoff of caseless rounds a denatured hexogen propellant with a special binder and coating for the ammunition has increased the spontaneous ignition temperature to 371 °C. A flutted barrel for added safety and efficiency has been incorporated in the Model 44. The flutted barrel will dissipate heat quickly, as the heat is being allowed to reach the outside temperature at a faster rate by removing materials. If, for any reason, the weapon jams, by pulling the charging handle, the round is simply ejected off the LMG via the ejection port.

A patented EM-5 Dry Lubricant system is used to coat all internal parts and the barrel. EM-5 is the official designation for the controlled atmospheric application of a proprietary formulated, modified tungsten disulfide. When the tungsten disulfide is applied in lamellar form through the precision process it forms a thin, uniform coating that forms a molecular bond with the substrate, and does not chip, flake or peel. It is inert,inorganic, non-toxic, non-corrosive and resistant to most petrochemical fuels, solvents and acids. However, it is compatible will all wet lubricants.

Ammunition
The Model 44 can utilise both cased and caseless rounds. Precisely, it can use the 7.62x51mm NATO round, and it can also use the 7.62x51mm Caseless, using with an intergrated HITP propellant, which in essence is a formulation using 80% HMX with an elastomer binder in a hydrophobic polymerwhich. 7.62x51mm Caseless Ammunition for the Model 44 come in the following forms:

7.62x51mm FMJ
Full Metal Jacket. It is refered to as the "standard" round for the weapon. It has a stopping power of 8.908 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 1.000 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can adequately achieve penetration of body armor.

7.62x51mm FMJ - Incendiary
Full Metal Jacket Incendiary. It is refered to as a modified version of the "standard" round for the weapon. It has a stopping power of 8.908 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.800 m/s and a maximum effective range of 800 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal, encoated with White Phosphorus. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can achieve penetration of body armor with ease. It causes burn damage to the target, amplifying the force he receives from the bullet and makes recovery more difficult.

7.62x51mm TR
This is a rubber round, designed for training purposes. The rear side of the round is covered in metal, so that the propellant's ignition does not tear the rubber apart. However, as the metal still remains and that the rubber can be torn apart when subjected to immense air resistance means that it can be dangerous, since the target may receive the metal part at high velocities should the rubber be torn and that it's range is significantly reduced to 1.000 meters. When training with this kind of ammunition, it is recommended that body armor, knee and ankle guards, eye protection and helmet must be worn at all times during such training.

7.62x51mm HP
Hollow-Point ammunition. It has a stopping power of 8.203 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 876 m/s and an effective range of 876 meters. This is an expanding bullet that has a pit or hollowed out shape in its tip, generally intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target in order to decrease penetration and disrupt more tissue as it travels through the target, causing immense damage.

7.62x51mm AP
Armor Piercing Ammunition. It has a stopping power of 8.902 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 1.000 meters. This round has a "soft" lead core, encased with Tungsten. This allows for excellent Penetration of Body Armor as well as targets behind light armored vehicles and cover. When used properly, it can be used to penetrate the armor of lightly armored vehicles.

Ergonomics
Unlike other ENAMI Small Arms, the Model 44 does not feature rail systems for mounting optics, but the weapon itself is considered the "most reliable" of all ENAMU small arms; It is significantly lighter; weight with a large tripod is 9.5 Kg, while with a small bipod the weapon weighs 8.5 Kg. It has a hand grip below. As mentioned above, there is a battery gauge display and a battery charge hole on the right side of the weapon. There is also a bullet counter which, at any given time, displays the number of rounds in the magazine.

Model 87 Sniper Rifle
Image


Overview
The Model 87 is one of ENAMI's most iconic designs. It is a bolt action sniper rifle which, is shorter than other bolt Action Sniper Rifles, even though it has a magazine capacity of only 8 rounds. It is also considerably light; loaded weight is only 6.5 Kg, with an unloaded weight of just 4.7 Kg. It has a rail system for mounting up optics and scopes, with ease. It is designed to fire the 7.62x51mm caseless round, with immense stopping power and enhanced penetration capability. However, the weapon is also compatible with cased ammunition of 7.62x51mm NATO, however at a magazine capacity of just 5 rounds. Most of the external weapon parts are made from lightweight polymer. The weapon can be modified to use a sound supressor. Using both electric and mechanical ignition systems, this weapon can be used in any and all situations, including after an actual EMP attack.

Background
The Model 87 began as an ENAMI attempt to rival the main sniper rifle of LG Defense Systems, the M-15, with 2 sniper rifles; the Model 87 Sniper Rifle and Model 89 Anti-Materiel Rifle. The former was intended to be more accurate, the latter to have a semi-auomatic capability. Both would utilise caseless rounds. Devellopment for both rifles began in 2008 and was complete in 2010. In the Oured Gun Show of April 2011, the 2 rifles, already in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces, faced off the M-15 individually. Representing ENAMI was crack shot Mixalis Seferlis, a former Sniper in the Sacred Guard. Representing LGDS was crack shot David Michaels, a former Sniper in the Phoenix Strike. When the Model 87 faced the M-15 in a 300 meter shoot, although it took Seferlis longer to pull the bolt back and fourth than his Libertarian Counterpart (whose M-15 was a Semi-Auto), the Model 87 was more accurate by 0.1 MOA.

Action
The Model 87 is a bolt action sniper rifle, with an unusual design in that the magazine is placed in buttstock of the rifle, therefore the gun is designed in the bullpup configuration. This design allows the gun to be shorter. When the bolt is pulled back, and then foward, the round from the magazine is chambered into the rifle. When Cased rounds are fired, upon the pulling back of the bolt, the casing is ejected, and the next round is ready to be chambered into the rifle. Caseless rounds are fired in two ways; electronically or manually. A lever can be used to switch between electronic and mechanical ignition systems.

The Electronic System of Operation works as follows: Upon pulling the trigger, an electronic signal is sent to a special mechanism which activates the firing pin. Once the pin is activated, it then in turn sends a small electrical current to cause detonation of the primer, providing the thermal impulse necessary to ignite the propellant which then deflagrates, producing pressure to the round's intergrated propellant. The round is then fired, the primer is pulled back and the process repeats the next time the trigger is pulled or if it's kept pulled. The Electronic system of operation works on batteries, and a gauge is displayed on the buttstock, giving the operator a clear picture of the weapon's status and whether he needs to recharge or replace the battery. In the former event, a recharge hole is under the gauge. The Mechanical Operation is far simpler. Once the trigger is pulled, the firing pin mechanically expands the primer, which ignites the round by making contact with the charge, much like in cased assault rifles. The round is then fired.

To avoid cookoff of caseless rounds a denatured hexogen propellant with a special binder and coating for the ammunition has increased the spontaneous ignition temperature to 371 °C. If, for any reason, the weapon jams, by pulling back the bolt, the round is simply ejected off the sniper rifle. A patented EM-5 Dry Lubricant system is used to coat all internal parts and the barrel. EM-5 is the official designation for the controlled atmospheric application of a proprietary formulated, modified tungsten disulfide. When the tungsten disulfide is applied in lamellar form through the precision process it forms a thin, uniform coating that forms a molecular bond with the substrate, and does not chip, flake or peel. It is inert,inorganic, non-toxic, non-corrosive and resistant to most petrochemical fuels, solvents and acids. However, it is compatible will all wet lubricants.

Ammunition
The Model 87 can utilise both cased and caseless rounds. Precisely, it can use the 7.62x51mm NATO round, and it can also use the 7.62x51mm Caseless, using with an intergrated HITP propellant, which in essence is a formulation using 80% HMX with an elastomer binder in a hydrophobic polymerwhich. 7.62x51mm Caseless Ammunition for the Model 87 come in the following forms:

7.62x51mm FMJ
Full Metal Jacket. It is refered to as the "standard" round for the weapon. It has a stopping power of 8.908 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 1.800 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can adequately achieve penetration of body armor.

7.62x51mm FMJ - Incendiary
Full Metal Jacket Incendiary. It is refered to as a modified version of the "standard" round for the weapon. It has a stopping power of 8.908 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.800 m/s and a maximum effective range of 800 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal, encoated with White Phosphorus. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can achieve penetration of body armor with ease. It causes burn damage to the target, amplifying the force he receives from the bullet and makes recovery more difficult.

7.62x51mm TR
This is a rubber round, designed for training purposes. The rear side of the round is covered in metal, so that the propellant's ignition does not tear the rubber apart. However, as the metal still remains and that the rubber can be torn apart when subjected to immense air resistance means that it can be dangerous, since the target may receive the metal part at high velocities should the rubber be torn and that it's range is significantly reduced to 1.000 meters. When training with this kind of ammunition, it is recommended that body armor, knee and ankle guards, eye protection and helmet must be worn at all times during such training.

7.62x51mm HP
Hollow-Point ammunition. It has a stopping power of 8.203 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 876 m/s and an effective range of 1.356 meters. This is an expanding bullet that has a pit or hollowed out shape in its tip, generally intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target in order to decrease penetration and disrupt more tissue as it travels through the target, causing immense damage.

7.62x51mm AP
Armor Piercing Ammunition. It has a stopping power of 8.902 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 1.800 meters. This round has a "soft" lead core, encased with Tungsten. This allows for excellent Penetration of Body Armor as well as targets behind light armored vehicles and cover. When used properly, it can be used to penetrate the armor of lightly armored vehicles.

Ergonomics
The Rifle's futuristic design makes it comfortable to shoot, carry and weild. The handgrip is made of polymer. There is a rail system for attaching scopes. A bipod can be added, however the handgrip can be used as an improvised bipod under certain conditions. There are threads to mount a supressor. The Model 87 also includes a battery gauge and hole for recharging batteries, like all ENAMI small arms. It also includes a bullet counter which, at any given time, gives the number of rounds in the magazine.

Model 110 Grenade Launcher
Image


Overview
The Model 110 Grenade Launcher is a lightweight platform, designed to fire 40mm caseless grenade rounds. It is lightweight and designed to be two-man portable, as well as vehicle mounted. The Model 110 can kill or suppress enemies out to 2,000 meters, and destroy lightly armored vehicles, watercraft, and helicopters at 1,000 meters. It comes as standard with an electronic sight, which also times the fuse for caseless airburst grenades.

Background
The Model 110 Grenade Launcher was designed as an alternative for the LGDS' equivalent Grenade Launcher, the MP-320. Lacking electronic sights as a standard and being relatively heavy (~30 Kg), the Eagleland Armed Forces soon began to search for a new, lightweight Grenade Launcher. ENAMI inroduced such a grenade launcher in 2009 and since then, it has been in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces.

Action
The Model 110 uses a gas operated, rotating bolt system and it includes an attenuated recoil system for decreased peak recoil. It is a belt fed weapon that fires from an open bolt. The differential recoil system means that the barrel and bolt group are allowed to recoil within the receiver casing together,against the recoil springs. When weapon is cocked for first shot, the bolt is locked open and the entire barrel/bolt group is carried rearwards and locked there. Upon the pull of the trigger both the barrel group and the bolt inside it are released, and the bolt loads the round and locks it in the chamber while the barrel still moves forward; the firing pin is then released immediately, and the recoil from the discharge first has to arrest the forward movement of the barrel group. It is then thrown backward with less force than it would be in the traditional system with fixed barrel. The belt feed and bolt cycling are operated by conventional gas action.

The rounds are ignited via an electronic or a mechanical system of operation. The Electronic System of Operation works as follows: Upon pulling the trigger, an electronic signal is sent to a special mechanism which activates the firing pin. Once the pin is activated, it then in turn sends a small electrical current to cause detonation of the primer, providing the thermal impulse necessary to ignite the propellant which then deflagrates, producing pressure to the round's intergrated propellant. The round is then fired, the primer is pulled back and the process repeats the next time the trigger is pulled or if it's kept pulled. Since the design fires caseless rounds, there is no need for an ejection port (although there is one, just in case the weapon jams), therefore the next round is simply inserted into the chamber. The Mechanical Operation is far simpler. Once the trigger is pulled, the firing pin mechanically expands the primer, which ignites the round by making contact with the charge, much like in cased grenade launchers. The round is fired, the primer is moved back and the cycle repeats. A lever can be used to switch between electronic and mechanical ignition systems.

To avoid cookoff of caseless rounds a denatured hexogen propellant with a special binder and coating for the ammunition has increased the spontaneous ignition temperature to 371 °C. If, for any reason, the weapon jams, by pulling the charging handle, the round is simply ejected from the rifle via the ejection port. A patented EM-5 Dry Lubricant system is used to coat all internal parts and the barrel. EM-5 is the official designation for the controlled atmospheric application of a proprietary formulated, modified tungsten disulfide. When the tungsten disulfide is applied in lamellar form through the precision process it forms a thin, uniform coating that forms a molecular bond with the substrate, and does not chip, flake or peel. It is inert,inorganic, non-toxic, non-corrosive and resistant to most petrochemical fuels, solvents and acids. However, it is compatible will all wet lubricants.

Ammunition
The Model 110 Grenade Launcher is designed to fire 40x25mm caseless grenades, which using with an intergrated HITP propellant, which in essence is a formulation using 80% HMX with an elastomer binder in a hydrophobic polymerwhich. 40x25mm Caseless Ammunition for the Model 110 come in the following forms:

HEI
High-Explosive Impact. These rounds contain HE materials and explode on contact with the target. Upon impact, the grenade will kill anyone within the radius of 10 meters, and wound them within the radius of 20 meters. It can also punch through three inches of rolled homogeneous steel with a direct hit (0 Degree Obliquity), which means it can penetrate most infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers. Effective range: 1.800 meters.

ARBR
Airburst. These rounds are designed to explode with a timed fuse, and not on contact with the target. The fuses are adjustable via the electronic sight. Effective Range: 1.800 meters.

Ergonomics
The weapon is designed to be lighter than most grenade launchers; 22.7 Kilograms is the weight complete with tripod and eletronic sight. The latter is removable and a pop-up iron sight can or another sight (which are accodatable by the Picatinny rail system) can be placed. It includes a battery gauge counter and hole for recharging the battery of both the ignition system and of the electrical sight. It can be easily disassembled and it is also possible, by changing only 3 parts, to convert the Model 110 Grenade Launcher into the Model 105 HMG and vice versa.

Model 105 Heavy Machinegun
Image


Overview
The Model 105 is a Heavy Machinegun designed to fire 12x7x100mm caseless rounds. It is lightweight and designed to be two-man portable, as well as vehicle mounted. It can be easily dissasembled and it's relatively light; it weighs only 19 Kg with tripod.

Background
The Model 105 Heavy Machine Gun was designed as an alternative for the Eagleland Armed Forces' main HMG at that time, the M2HB. Lacking electronic sights as a standard and being relatively heavy, the Eagleland Armed Forces soon began to search for a new, lightweight HMG. ENAMI inroduced such a machinegun in 2009 and since then, it has been in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces.

Action
The Model 105 uses a gas operated, rotating bolt system and it includes an attenuated recoil system for decreased peak recoil. It is a belt fed weapon that fires from an open bolt. The differential recoil system means that the barrel and bolt group are allowed to recoil within the receiver casing together,against the recoil springs. When weapon is cocked for first shot, the bolt is locked open and the entire barrel/bolt group is carried rearwards and locked there. Upon the pull of the trigger both the barrel group and the bolt inside it are released, and the bolt loads the round and locks it in the chamber while the barrel still moves forward; the firing pin is then released immediately, and the recoil from the discharge first has to arrest the forward movement of the barrel group. It is then thrown backward with less force than it would be in the traditional system with fixed barrel. The belt feed and bolt cycling are operated by conventional gas action.

The rounds are ignited via an electronic or a mechanical system of operation. The Electronic System of Operation works as follows: Upon pulling the trigger, an electronic signal is sent to a special mechanism which activates the firing pin. Once the pin is activated, it then in turn sends a small electrical current to cause detonation of the primer, providing the thermal impulse necessary to ignite the propellant which then deflagrates, producing pressure to the round's intergrated propellant. The round is then fired, the primer is pulled back and the process repeats the next time the trigger is pulled or if it's kept pulled. Since the design fires caseless rounds, there is no need for an ejection port (although there is one, just in case the weapon jams), therefore the next round is simply inserted into the chamber. The Mechanical Operation is far simpler. Once the trigger is pulled, the firing pin mechanically expands the primer, which ignites the round by making contact with the charge, much like in cased machineguns. The round is fired, the primer is moved back and the cycle repeats. A lever can be used to switch between electronic and mechanical ignition systems.

To avoid cookoff of caseless rounds a denatured hexogen propellant with a special binder and coating for the ammunition has increased the spontaneous ignition temperature to 371 °C. If, for any reason, the weapon jams, by pulling the charging handle, the round is simply ejected from the rifle via the ejection port. A patented EM-5 Dry Lubricant system is used to coat all internal parts and the barrel. EM-5 is the official designation for the controlled atmospheric application of a proprietary formulated, modified tungsten disulfide. When the tungsten disulfide is applied in lamellar form through the precision process it forms a thin, uniform coating that forms a molecular bond with the substrate, and does not chip, flake or peel. It is inert,inorganic, non-toxic, non-corrosive and resistant to most petrochemical fuels, solvents and acids. However, it is compatible will all wet lubricants.

Ammunition
The Model 105 can utilise both cased and caseless rounds. Precisely, it can use the 12.7x100mm Caseless, using with an intergrated HITP propellant, which in essence is a formulation using 80% HMX with an elastomer binder in a hydrophobic polymerwhich. 12.7x100mm Caseless Ammunition for the Model 110 come in the following forms:

12.7x100mm FMJ
Full Metal Jacket. It is refered to as the "standard" round for the weapon. It has a stopping power of 27.296 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 2.000 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can adequately achieve penetration of body armor.

12.7x100mm FMJ - Incendiary
Full Metal Jacket Incendiary. It is refered to as a modified version of the "standard" round for the weapon. It has a stopping power of 27.296 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 2.000 meters. It is consisted of a "soft core" of lead, encased around a "hard" gilding metal, encoated with White Phosphorus. This allows for greater muzzle velocities (related to other bullet types) and can achieve penetration of body armor with ease. It causes burn damage to the target, amplifying the force he receives from the bullet and makes recovery more difficult.

12.7x100mm TR
This is a rubber round, designed for training purposes. The rear side of the round is covered in metal, so that the propellant's ignition does not tear the rubber apart. However, as the metal still remains and that the rubber can be torn apart when subjected to immense air resistance means that it can be dangerous, since the target may receive the metal part at high velocities should the rubber be torn and that it's range is significantly reduced to 1.000 meters. When training with this kind of ammunition, it is recommended that body armor, knee and ankle guards, eye protection and helmet must be worn at all times during such training.

12.7x100mm HP
Hollow-Point ammunition. It has a stopping power of 26.979 Joules, with a muzzle velocity of 876 m/s and an effective range of 1.556 meters. This is an expanding bullet that has a pit or hollowed out shape in its tip, generally intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target in order to decrease penetration and disrupt more tissue as it travels through the target, causing immense damage.

12.7x100mm AP
Armor Piercing Ammunition. It has a stopping power of 22.296 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 2.000 meters. This round has a "soft" lead core, encased with Tungsten. This allows for excellent Penetration of Body Armor as well as targets behind light armored vehicles and cover. When used properly, it can be used to penetrate the armor of lightly armored vehicles.

12.7x100mm AP-E
Armor Piercing - Explosive Ammunition. It has a stopping power of 22.296 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 2.000 meters. This round has a "soft" High Explosive core, encased with Tungsten. This allows for excellent Penetration of Body Armor as well as targets behind light armored vehicles and cover, as well as a guaranteed kill. When used properly, it can be used to penetrate the armor of lightly armored vehicles.

12.7x100mm AP-IE
Armor Piercing - Incendiary Explosive. It has a stopping power of 22.296 joules, with a muzzle velocity of 1.100 m/s and a maximum effective range of 2.000 meters. This round has a "soft" High Explosive core, encased with Tungsten, which in turn is covered with White Phosphorus. This allows for excellent Penetration of Body Armor as well as targets behind light armored vehicles and cover, as well as a guaranteed kill and a more serious wound channel. When used properly, it can be used to penetrate the armor of lightly armored vehicles.

Ergonomics
The weapon is designed to be lighter than most Heavy Machineguns; 19.3 Kilograms is the weight complete with tripod. It includes a pop-up iron sight can and sights (which are accodatable by the Picatinny rail system) can be placed. It includes a battery gauge counter and hole for recharging the battery of both the ignition system and of the electrical sight. It can be easily disassembled and it is also possible, by changing only 3 parts, to convert the Model 105 HMG into the Model 110 Grenade Launcher and vice versa.

Model 220 Mortar
Image


Overview
The Model 220 Mortar is a 120mm mortar, which is characterised by it's automated loading mechanism, which does not require the user to reload it manually, exept in the case of error, when the automatic loading mechanism can be removed with ease. The Model 220 comes is designed to be fired from vehicles, especially from APCs. Therefore, mortar carriers can use the Model 220.

Background
The Eagleland Armed Forces's main heavy mortar was the Model 210 150mm mortar. While effective, this mortar was heavy, cumbersome and difficulties were present in moving it, as well as reloading it with the relatively heavy 150mm mortar shells. In 2008 ENAMI introduced the Model 220 mortar, with less destructive power but it was lighter and a new automated loading system was introduced to reduce reload time.

Ammunition
The Model 220 mortar is designed to fire the following types of 120mm mortar ammunition;

HE
High Explosive. These rounds contain HE materials and explode on contact with the target. Upon impact, the grenade will kill anyone within the radius of 10 meters, and wound them within the radius of 20 meters.

SMK
Smoke. These rounds create smoke upon impact, and can keep releasing smoke for 20 seconds and the smoke itself persists for 45 minutes. The cloud of smoke produced by this grenade depends on the chemicals included and can be white, red, green, yellow, or violet). A colored band on the shell indicates the smoke color and if it does not exist, then the smoke is white.

WP
White Phosphorus. These rounds work exactly like SMK shells, however it releases white phosphorous.

Features
The Model 220 Mortar can be deployed in any armored vehicle which has been modified as a mortar carrier, although it is transportable by ordinary transpprt helicopters. After deployment the crew can control the weapon system from a remote station. In operation it is designed to be fully automatic: loading, computing firing solutions, aiming and firing automatically. From an unloaded condition, the weapon is capable of loading, completing a firing solution, aiming, and firing the first round within 14 seconds of receiving an order. The weapon is also capable of being operated manually in the event of failure of an automatic system.

Specifications
Weight: 22 Kg
Caliber: 120 mm
Rate of fire: 10 rounds per minute (maximum) - 4 rounds per minute (sustained)
Effective range: 8.200 m

Model 13 Flashbang
Image


Features
It is shaped similarly to the Model 12 and Model 11 grenades, but the body is of thin metal (which is holed) and in the interior is a paper-wrapped pyrotechnic device which produces the flash-bang effects. The blast produces a 175-decibel bang as well as a 1-million-candlepower flash of light, which produce disorientation. The fuze mechanism has a delay of 3 seconds and the flash can ignite combustibles within a 1-meter radius including the paper within the grenade.

Model 12 Smoke Grenade
Image


Features
The Model 12 Smoke Grenade, when the pin is pulled, is designed to pop smoke as soon as the mechanism of the grenade is vibrated after a 3-second period; that means that it can pop smoke 3 seconds at the user's hand or when it hits the ground. This grenade can keep releasing smoke for 20 seconds and the smoke itself persists for 45 minutes. The cloud of smoke produced by this grenade depends on the chemicals included and can be white, red, green, yellow, or violet). A colored band on the grenade indicates the smoke color and if it does not exist, then the smoke is white. The grenade produces very little heat, and can actually be held in a gloved hand during and after the smoke is expelled.

Model 10 Fragmentation Grenade
Image


Features
The Model 10 fragmentation can be thrown about 30 meters by the average soldier. It has a 5 second fuse that ignites a mixture of explosives and nanothermite packed inside a round body. Shrapnel is provided by the grenade casing and with the white hot fireball produces a casualty radius of 20 meters, with a fatality radius of 10 meters, although some fragments can disperse as far out as 230 meters. Its effectiveness is not just its blast radius, which measures approximately 13.7 m, since shrapnel fly much further. The weapon can also be used in a limited role to destroy equipment. The Model 10 is designed to be lightweight compared to other grenades of it's own category.

Type 25 Combat Knife
Image

Background
Development for the Type 25 Combat knife started in 2008, when elements of the Eagleland Armed Forces, particularly Special Forces and non-infantry forces were relying on the Type 50 Bayonet for CQB. It was heavy to use as a knife and complaints were made about the effectiveness of the Type 50 in non-bayonet uses. ENAMI has introduced the Type 25 Combat Knife in 2010, to solve these problems.

Features
Compared to the other Type 50 bayonet sold by ENAMI, the Type 25 is lighter and more suitable for hand to hand fighting without the knife being used as a bayonet. Like the other knives sold in ENAMI, the Type 25 lacks a fuller. A sharper point helps penetrate body armor, while serrations near the handle help improve its function as a utility knife.

The Type 25 assembly consists of three components: the 172 mm laser cut, ice hardened, corrosion free, Black Kalgard coated, forged 440A stainless steel Westernized tanto blade, the ergonomic ambidextrous polyamide handle and screw. The entire knife weighs approximately 320 grams. The sheath for the Type 25 is turnable, and includes an adapter to allow it to be mounted onto the MOLLE/PALS load bearing systems. It is capable of functioning without breakage in operating temperatures of - 40°C + 80°C. The blade also has a non-reflective phosphate finish. The grip is made of Dynaflex, a synthetic non-slip material, is ergonomically grooved.

The Model 356 polyester elastomer scabbard, designed by Maxaira Industries, offers a weight and noise reduction from previous scabbards by Maxaira Industries and is ILBE compatible. It has a fitted internal stainless steel spring and friction device at its throat to secure the bayonet. A ceramic-coated aluminium honing rod is located on the back of the scabbard. The scabbard is compatible with the MOLLE/PALS modular attachment system.

Type 50 Bayonet
Image

Background
ENAMI's old predecessors from the 1600s through the early 20th century have a history of producing and innovating bayonets for use in the Eagleland Armed Forces. ENAMI proudly carries on that proud tradition in the 21st Century and that, alongside the Armed Forces' needs for a new, more powerful bayonet, led to the introduction of the Type 50 Bayonet in 2007.

Features
Compared to the other Type 25 combat knife sold by ENAMI, the Type 50 is heavier, thicker and larger. Like the other knives sold in ENAMI, the Type 50 lacks a fuller. A sharper point helps penetrate body armor, while serrations near the handle help improve its function as a utility knife. In one demonstration, the prototype was able to pierce a punching bag covered with aircraft aluminium and a ballistic vest. The entire weapon is designed to be corrosion resistant, and weighs 0.57 kg with its sheath.

The Type 50 features a 20.32 cm long, 3.49 cm wide, 0.51 cm thick blade. The serrations measure 4.4 cm of the blade length on the true edge. The blade is made from high carbon steel rated at HRC 53-58 and is capable of functioning without breakage in operating temperatures of --32 to 57 °C. The blade also has a non-reflective phosphate finish. The grip is made of Dynaflex, a synthetic non-slip material, is ergonomically grooved, and is more oval than round. This design helps prevent repetitive-strain injuries and hand fatigue during training. The full tang connects the cross guard/muzzle ring (which is 0.42 cm) and pommel latch plate that clasps the barrel lug; both are phosphate coated like the blade.

The Model 356 polyester elastomer scabbard, designed by Maxaira Industries, offers a weight and noise reduction from previous scabbards by Maxaira Industries and is ILBE compatible. It has a fitted internal stainless steel spring and friction device at its throat to secure the bayonet. A ceramic-coated aluminium honing rod is located on the back of the scabbard. The scabbard is compatible with the MOLLE/PALS modular attachment system.

Type 75 Anti-Tank Missile Launcher
Image

Background
The Type 75 AT Missile Launcher was designed in 1995 with Special Operations in mind. Operations which require a fast strike on enemy forces which have, however, armor, require a powerful, lightweight missile system which is able to perform adequately against armored vehicles.

Features
The Type 75 operates on the principle of a recoilless weapon, where the forward inertia of the projectile is balanced by the mass of propellant gases ejecting from the rear of the barrel. But unlike previous Recoiless Rifle Designs by ENAMI, which use a heavier and more expensive steel tube with rifling, the disposable Type 75 design greatly reduces manufacturing costs by using a reinforced smoothbore fiberglass outer tube. Since recoilless weapons generate almost no recoil, a relatively large projectile can be fired which would otherwise be impossible in a man-portable weapon. A plastic blowout plug is placed at the center rear of the shell casing containing the projectile and propellant, which itself is enclosed in the launcher's outer tube. When the gases build up to the correct pressure level, the blowout plug disintegrates allowing the proper amount of gases to be vented to the rear, balancing the propellant gases pushing the projectile forward. The spring-loaded firing rod is located down the side of the outer tube, with the firing pin at the rear side of the tube. When released, the firing pin strikes a primer located in the side of the casing's rim. Additionally, as the shell casing absorbs the majority of the firing stresses, the launch tube can be designed to be very lightweight as it does not have to contend with the extreme pressures found in traditional cannons.

The main disadvantage of a recoilless rifle design is that it creates a large back blast area behind the weapon which can cause severe burns and overpressure injuries both to friendly personnel in the vicinity of the user and sometimes to the users themselves, especially in confined spaces. The back blast may also reveal the user's position to the enemy. The problem of back blast is solved by the Type 75's design. It uses a saltwater countermass in the rear of the launcher to absorb the back blast; the resulting spray captures and dramatically slows down the pressure wave, allowing it to be fired from enclosed areas, previously impossible with older ENAMI Recoiless Rifle designs.

To fire, the gunner first removes the safety pin located at the rear of the tube, which unblocks the firing rod. He then takes a firing position ensuring that no one is present in the back blast area. If firing from the prone position (lying on his stomach) he must also place his legs well to the side to avoid burning himself. Then the gunner moves back the front and rear sight covers, allowing the sights to pop up into their firing positions. The launcher's sights are iron sights which are similar in concept and use to those on assault rifles. He then removes the first of two safeties by moving the firing rod cocking lever (located on the left side) forward and then over the top to the right side. The gunner takes aim, while at the same time holding down the red safety lever located in front of the cocking lever, and then fires by pressing forward the red firing button with his right thumb. Both the red safety lever and firing button must be pressed down at the same time to fire the missile. The red firing button has resistance similar to the trigger pull of an assault rifle, so the gunner does not have to jab at the firing button which could throw his aim off. After firing, however, the launcher is discarded, as the outer tube is built only to take the stress of one firing. The Type 75 can mount an optical night sight on a removable fixture.

There are 6 Warhead Types for the Type 75 AT launcher.

HEDP
High Explosive Dual Purpose missile, designed for use against bunkers, buildings, enemy personnel in the open and light armor. The projectile can be set to detonate on impact or with a slight delayed detonation. The heavier nose cap allows the HEDP projectile to penetrate light walls or windows and then explode, or "skipped" off the ground for an air-burst. For use against light armor, there is a smaller cone HEAT warhead with 150 mm of penetration against RHA.

HP
High Penetration missile. It is in essence an HEDP warhead, only that it has an enhanced high penetration ability (up to 500 mm to 600 mm of RHA.)

AST
Anti Structure Tandem-warheads, designed for urban warfare where a projectile heavier than the HEDP is needed. Two warheads, first one a HEAT with a shallow cone resulting in less penetration but a wider hole, and a second follow through high-blast warhead. It has two settings: one for destroying bunkers and one for mouse holing a building wall for combat entry.

HEAT
High Explosive Anti-Tank warhead. This HEAT round can penetrate up to 420 mm of RHA with beyond-armour effect.

FEW
Frontal Engagement Warhead. This is a 130mm Frontal Engagement missile, which features a tandem-shaped charge, that employs a smaller initial charge, designed to initiate reactive armor, followed by a larger, more destructive charge, designed to penetrate and defeat the base armour.

Specifications
- Length: 101.6 cm
- Weight: 6.7 kg
- Bore diameter: 84 mm
- Maximum effective range: 300 metres
- Penetration: 400 mm of rolled homogeneous armour (RHA)

Type 77 Anti-Air Missile
Image


Background
The Type 77 Anti-Air Missile was designed in 1988, as a replacement to the aging "Cricket" MANPADS in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces at the time.

Features
The Type 77 is a passive surface-to-air missile, shoulder-fired by either one or two operators. The Type 77 can attack aircraft at a range of up to 4,800 meters and at altitudes between 180 and 3,800 meters. The missile can also be fired from ground vehicles. The missile is 1.52 m long and 70 mm in diameter with 10 cm fins. The missile itself weighs 10.1 kg, while the missile with launcher weighs approximately 15.2 kg. It is launched by a small ejection motor that pushes it a safe distance from the operator before engaging the main two-stage solid-fuel sustainer, which accelerates it to a maximum speed of Mach 2.2. The warhead is a 3 kg penetrating hit-to-kill warhead type with an impact fuze and a self-destruct timer.

To fire the missile, a BCU (Battery Coolant Unit) is inserted into the handguard. This shoots a stream of argon gas into the system, as well as a chemical energy charge that enables the acquisition indicators and missile to get power. The IFF system receives power from a rechargeable battery. Guidance to the target is initially through proportional navigation, then switches to another mode that directs the missile towards the target airframe instead of its exhaust plume.

After launch the missile is gathered by the laser beam and flies into it. From this stage onwards, the missile attempts to keep itself inside the beam, while the aiming station keeps the beam pointing at the target. The missile, controlled by a computer inside it, rides the beam to the target. Lock on is provided by an imaging infra-red seeker using a C - QWIP Focal Plane Array. The QWIP (Quantum Well Imaging Photodetector) allows a single chip to concurrently image targets in two infrared color bands while permitting the added benefit of allowing for tailored infrared color sensitivity. In flight the infra-red imaging system compares the target image to the information in its targeting database which gives the missile a high probability to identify and disregard countermeasures. The missile makes use of proportional navigation to over correct for the targets course changes in order to achieve a high probability of intercept. In fact, the missile, being fully re-programmable by use of either a USB connection or flash drive connected to the transport tube, can have mission/theater specific targeting and counter measure data loaded into its database.

The missile takes advantage of a 3 kg directed energy blast fragmentation warhead. This warhead is composed of multiple detonators encased in a contoured fragmentation casing. This arrangement is designed to optimize the initial available explosive energy and efficiently transfer that energy into high velocity fragments. An added benefit of the multiple detonators is that fragments can be focused more effectively. For example, when both ends are detonated the fragmentation pattern forms an isotropic annular disk and fragmentation occurs in a forward or aft conical disk when detonated on either end. During its terminal flight the missile will drop off the heat source and direct the missile towards the most vulnerable point of the target as directed by the onboard targeting database.

The system includes a ring laser gyro to eliminate the need to super elevate prior to firing. Both the DAU and the IFF antenna are powered by rechargeable batteries. With the focal plane array utilizing Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) it was determined that the system should be hardened against EMP attack. All currently produced Type 77 systems, laser guided or infra-red guided, use Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) circuitry while antenna and power supply wiring make use of surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack. The launch unit, DAU and missiles use fiber optic cabling where ever possible and are sealed with conductive gaskets.

Type 80 Advanced Anti-Tank Missile Launcher
Image


Background
The Type 80 Anti-Tank Missile Launcher was developed in 2000, as a replacement to previous ENAMI AT missile systems. As Modern Main Battle Tanks become tougher in terms of armour and protection, the necessity for a new and powerful AT Missile system became more evident.

Features
The Type 80 is a fire-and-forget missile with lock-on before launch and automatic self-guidance. The system takes a top-attack flight profile against armored vehicles (attacking the top armor which is generally thinner) but can also take a direct-attack mode for use against buildings or fortifications. This missile also has the ability to engage helicopters in the direct attack mode. It can reach a peak altitude of 150 meters in top-attack mode and 60 meters in direct-fire mode and is equipped with an imaging infrared seeker. The tandem warhead is fitted with two shaped charges: a precursor warhead to detonate any explosive reactive armor and a primary warhead to penetrate base armor. The missile is ejected from the launcher so that it reaches a safe distance from the operator before the main rocket motors ignite; a "soft launch arrangement". This makes it harder for technologically advanced adversaries to identify the launcher.

The missile’s tandem warhead is a HEAT type. This round utilizes an explosive shaped charge to create a stream of superplastically deformed metal formed from trumpet-shaped metallic liners. The result is a narrow high velocity particle stream that can penetrate armor. ERA boxes or tiles lie over a vehicle’s main armor and explode when struck by a warhead. This explosion does not harm the vehicle’s main armor, but causes steel panels to fly across the path of the HEAT round’s particle steam, so that the warhead expends much of its energy cutting through the panels instead of the main armor. The Javelin uses two shaped-charge warheads in tandem. The smaller diameter HEAT precursor charge sets off the ERA and clears it from the path of the much larger diameter HEAT warhead, which then penetrates the target’s primary armor. A two-layered molybdenum liner is used for the precursor and a copper liner for the main warhead.

To protect the main charge from the explosive blast, shock, and debris caused by the impact of the missile's nose and the detonation of the precursor charge, a blast shield is used between the main and precursor charge. A newer main charge liner produces a higher velocity jet. While making the warhead smaller, this change makes it more effective leaving more room for propellant for the main rocket motor, thus increasing the missile's range. Electronic arming and fusing, called Electronic Safe Arming and Fire (ESAF), is used. The ESAF system enables the firing and arming process to proceed, while imposing a series of safety checks on the missile. ESAF cues the launch motor after the trigger is pulled. When the missile reaches a key acceleration point, the ESAF initiates a second arming signal to fire the flight motor. After another check on missile conditions, ESAF initiates final arming to enable the warheads for detonation upon target impact. When the missile strikes the target, ESAF enables the tandem warhead function.

The gunner carries a reusable Command Launch Unit (in addition to the Launch Tube Assembly) more commonly referred to as a CLU (pronounced "clue"). The CLU is the targeting component of the two part system. The CLU has three views which are used to find, target, and fire the missile. The CLU may also be used separately from the missile as a portable thermal sight. It has 3 view options:
Day Field of View, Wide Field of View, Narrow Field of View and Seeker Field of View.

The first view is a 4× magnification day view. It is mainly used to scan areas for light during night operation because light is not visible in the thermal views. It is also used to scan during times following the sunrise and sunset when the thermal image is hard to focus due to the natural rapid heating and/or cooling of the Earth. The second view is the 4x magnification night view, and shows the gunner a thermal representation of the area viewed. This is also the primary view used due to its ability to detect infrared radiation and find both troops and vehicles otherwise too well hidden to detect. The screen shows a "green scale" view which can be adjusted in both contrast and brightness. The inside of the CLU is cooled by a small refrigeration unit attached to the sight. This greatly increases the sensitivity of the thermal imaging capability since the temperature inside the sight is much lower than that of the objects it detects. Due to the sensitivity this causes, the gunner is able to "focus" the CLU to show a very detailed image of the area being viewed by showing temperature differences of only a few degrees. The gunner operates this view with the use of two hand stations similar to the control stick found in modern cockpits. It is from this view that the gunner focuses the image and determines the area that gives the best heat signature on which to lock the missile.

The third field of view is a 9x thermal sight used to better identify the target vehicle. Once the CLU has been focused in WFOV, the gunner may switch to NFOV for target recognition before activating the next FOV. Once the best target area is chosen the gunner presses one of the two triggers and automatically is sent to the fourth view. The Seeker FOV is a 9x magnification thermal view. This process is similar to the automatic zoom feature on most modern cameras. This view is also available along with the previously mentioned views, all of which may be accessed with press of a button. It is not as popular however, because a high magnification view takes longer to scan a wide area. This view allows the gunner to further aim the missile and set the guidance system housed inside the actual missile. During this view is when information is passed from the CLU, through the connection electronics of the Launch Tube Assembly, and into the missile's guidance system. If the gunner feels uncomfortable with firing the missile, he can still cycle back to the other views without having to fire the missile. When the gunner is comfortable with the target picture he pulls the second trigger and establishes a "lock”. The missile launches after a short hesitation.

The system includes a ring laser gyro to eliminate the need to super elevate prior to firing. The CLU is powered by rechargeable batteries. With the focal plane array utilizing Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) it was determined that the system should be hardened against EMP attack. All currently produced Type 80 systems, laser guided or infra-red guided, use Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) circuitry while antenna and power supply wiring make use of surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack. The launch unit, and the missile utilise fiber optic cabling where ever possible and are sealed with conductive gaskets.

Hoplite Body Armor System
Image


Features
The Hoplite Body Armor System was introduced in 2005 for the Eagleland Armed Forces, given the need for a relatively inexpensive but effective body armor system in today's world. It is a modern piece of equipment suitable for all combat environments, and can protect it's user from small caliber armor piercing rounds used worldwide, as well as all but the most powerful rifle rounds. It has entered service with the Eagleland Land Forces in 2007, 2 years after it's introduction, due to lack of funding for the project. It has received positive reviews from frontline units and as of late 2011 the Hoplite Body Armor is the main body armor system of the Eagleland Armed Forces. In the Eagleland, a Body Armor System includes both a vest body armor and helmet. The Hoplite Body Armor System is, therefore, composed of 2 key parts: the Spartan II Combat Vest and the Attican Combat Helmet. The Hoplite Body Armor System is flexible and can be configured in many camouflage pattern, with or without IR-suppressive materials.

The design of the Spartan II Vest consists of two components; an subvest section, consisting of soft armor, and plate sleeves which attach to the vest to accommodate different shapes of armor plates used. The materials largely make up the vest provide class 3 protection from pistol rounds and shell fragments on the front, back and shoulders. The subvest is made of a DYNEEMA, which is considered as the world's strongest synthetic fiber, capable of stopping multiple 7.62x39mm rounds at varying ranges - it is also more resistant to Natural erosion than Kevlar. The plate sleeve is also constructed from DYNEEMA. In addition the vest uses pannels made of Twaron, a heat-resistant and strong synthetic fibre developed in the early 1970s by the Dutch company AKZO. Together, DYNEEMA and Twaron make the plate sleeve act as a "catch net" for projectiles; a shot at a 30-40 degree angle will not ricochet, but will instead remain in the sleeve. The vest is non-combustible and resistant to aggressive liquids due to the special treatment of the materials used.

In addition, the Spartan II Vest uses Tungsten Disulfide plates; a single large plate on the front, and a pair of smaller rectangular plates which protect the wearers spine and vital organs. Tungsten Disulfide plates are stronger than ceramic plates or steel plates commonly used in body armor, but are heavier for the same amount of thickness. Therefore, the plates are 5mm wide, which is thinner than ceramic plating or steel plating (in the latter case, the plates can be 10mm wide), but is more effective, as Tungsten Disulfide plates can provide NIJ 101.04 Level IV protection on the front and back over a total 50 square decameter area. In essence, it can stop 30.06 rounds and multiple pistol rounds.

The Attican Combat Helmet is similar in shape to the classic United States-designed Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH), with additional protection to the rear. The helmet includes 2 layers, both beneath the cloth layer - an external section, made of a thin layer of DYNEEMA and an internal section made of a thin plate of Tungsten Disulfide, being only 1mm in width. In addition, it uses a four-point pad and retention system for optimum comfort and protection. The additional cushioning provided by the padding further improves impact protection, especially in regards to blunt force trauma. Cloth covers of any number of patterns may be applied, including fabrics of an IR-suppressant nature. The Helmet has an ability to mount Night Vision Optics and can be configured to be able to support Future Soldier System Components.

Type 876 Night Vision Googles
Image


Features
Τhe Type 876 Night Vision Sight is a monocular passive night vision device which fuses image-intensifying and thermal-imaging technologies, enabling vision in conditions with very little light. The two methods can be used simultaneously or individually. In essence, it combines image intensifier (I2 or II) and infra-red (IR, also called thermal imaging) technologies. It can be helmet-mounted or hand held. It is powered by four AA type batteries allowing continuous combined use of II and IR for 7.5 hours. The device can be used for a further 7.5 hours in II mode.

Image


Classified as a third-generation passive night vision device, the Type 876 Night Vision Sight can provide vision through thermal imaging even in situations where there isn't enough ambient light for the image intensifiers, thus eliminating the need for infra-red illumination (active night vision). It can also see through battlefield obscurants such as smoke and fog. The combined technologies allow better target identification and recognition, thereby improving the soldier's mobility and situational awareness. The center of gravity of the device is close to the face of the wearer, making the helmet-mounted use more comfortable, as well as increasing stability. Aiming lasers can also be integrated with it.

EL-35 "Aetos" Main Battle Tank
Image


Overview
In 2010, the EL-35 Aetos was comissioned in the Eagleland Armed Forces, replacing the EL-34 Geraki from frontline service. Dubbed for foreign export as "EL-35 Eagle MBT", the EL-35 Aetos would become a tank that will give the Eagleland Land Forces a new, unique tank. A combination of the Type 7 140mm, 50 calibre,smoothbore heavy cannon, firing rounds with High Pressure Eletrothermal-chemical generators, also equipped with the Type Type 5 Autoloader mechanism, Hydropneumatic Suspension, Type 55 FINDERS Multi-sensor Target Acquisition System, and many other electronics, create a weapon platform that will may eventually replace most tanks in service with the Eagleland military, and will ensure Eagleland Armored Domination in its homeland for years to come. Many of these features, if not all of them, are common on all ENAMI armored vehicles.

Background
The UR Tank Industry is a two-horse race between Libertarian LGDS and Eagleland's vaunted ENAMI. The Pride of ENAMI was the EL-34 Geraki, dubbed for foreign export as EL-34 "Raven". From 1981 to 2010, the EL-34 was the mainstray of Eagleland Tank Formations, which proved to be a rival of LGDS's models until the Devellopment of the Katana MBT in 2000. At this time, it has become clear that a new tank was needed to replace the EL-34, as it's 125mm Cannon, older generation Chobham armor, and old electronics gradually rendered it useless on the Modern battlefeild.

Therefore, to sole those problems, in 2004 ENAMI was contracted by the Eagleland Ministry of Defense to design a tank that could solve these probelms. The project was dubbed EL-35 "Aetos', or Eagle. Devellopment was finished in 2006. As of 2011, the EL-35 is the mainstray of Eagleland Armored Divisions.

Armour and Protection
The GALIX system is installed, which coordinates smoke grenades, anti-personell grenades (for urban combat) and Infra-Red screening rounds, that produce strong heat sources for Anti-Tank missiles and interfere with thermal and infra-red scanners. For protection aganist ATGMs,the Eagle MBT features the SADS (Spheric Active Defense System). It includes an F/G band fire-control radar with four flat-panel antennas mounted on the vehicle, with a 360-degree field of view. When a weapon is fired at the vehicle, the internal computer uses the signal from the incoming weapon and calculates an approach vector. Once the incoming weapon has been identified and its course has been predicted, then the computers calculate the optimal time and angle to fire the neutralizers to intercept the threat at a distance of between 5 to 30 meters from the protected vehicle.

These neutralizers are stored in two rotating launchers installed on the sides of the vehicle. The launchers are normally stowed behind armored plating and only deploy when a threat is detected. The launchers fire the neutralizing agents, which explode in clusters, exactly in front of the threat, delfelcting it, therefore ensuring that it will not cause any serious damage to the vehicle. The system is designed to have a very small kill zone, so as not to endanger troops adjacent to the protected vehicle. Additionally, the system can track and defend against multiple threats from all directions.

The Eagle MBT utilizes a combination of RHA, steel encased depleted uranium/titanium alloy and newer generation Chobham/Dorchester armor, giving it the ability to endure hits from multiple 120mm projectiles at a range of more than 2.000 meters, as well as enduring multiple Anti-Tank missile and Rocket Prepelled Grenade rounds. This is accomplished with the composition of the armor which causes both shaped charges and kinetic-energy penetrators to be even less effective. The tank also features a V-shaped hull, to protect it from explosions from mines and other irregular explosives, such as IEDs. The armor's composition is unique, as Chobham/Dorchester armor is capable of defending the tank aganist multiple RPG rounds and anti-tank missiles.

The tank features Ekrixi Explosive Reactive Armor plates installed on the side of the armor and on the turret, and acts as a fourth layer of armor. ERA armor, such as Ekrixi, use an explosive charge to eliminate (or in most cases, weaken) the threat to the tank. An element of explosive reactive armour consists of a sheet or slab of high explosive sandwiched between two plates, typically metal, called the reactive or dynamic elements. On attack by a penetrating weapon, the explosive detonates, forcibly driving the metal plates apart to damage the penetrator. Against a shaped charge, the projected plates disrupt the metallic jet penetrator, effectively providing a greater path-length of material to be penetrated. Against a long rod penetrator, the projected plates serve to deflect and break up the rod.

The disruption is attributed to two mechanisms. First, the moving plates change the effective velocity and angle of impact of the shaped charge jet, reducing the angle of incidence and increasing the effective jet velocity versus the plate element. Second, since the plates are angled compared to the usual impact direction of shaped charge warheads, as the plates move outwards the impact point on the plate moves over time, requiring the jet to cut through fresh plate material. This second effect significantly increases the effective plate thickness during the impact. The explosion generated by that reaction is enough to weaken or sometimes destroy the threat posed to the vehicle, but nearby infantry is also in danger, as the explosion produces sharpnel, therefore dismounted infantry units are instructed to keep their distance from EL-35's equipped with Ekrixi ERA.

In case a fire breaks out inside the vehicle, the Eagle MBT's Saviour fire extinguishing system is designed to be activated in no more than 2 miliseconds of the fire outbreak, and can extinguish it winthin 300 miliseconds. When operating in NBC environments,the "Protector" system can be activated. This seals all possible points of entry of radiation, or biological and chemical substances, including the cannon itself. If the unit has to fight in those environments, all they have to do is deactivate the "Protector" system, but utilisation of NBC gear is reccomended to avoid infection.

Propulsion,Suspension and Transmission
The tank is propelled by the Souvlaki Industries Type 78 32 Litre Engine which produces 1.500 Kw at 2.600 rpm. This engine is designed to provide both a range of 500 Kilometers and be fast enough to outmaneuver enemy vehicles. However, powerful engines produce a lot of heat, something which enables easy identification by technologically advanced adversaries. To sole this problem, a specialised heat supression system is installed.

A rundown on how the heat supression system works: the air inside the engine is hot, while the one around the tank is usually cooler. Without the heat supression system, the exhaust brings out the hot air, therefore creating heat signatures which help technologically advanced adversaries identify the tank's location simply by this signature. However, the heat supression system mixes both the hot air inside the engine with the cooler one coming out of the tank. Therefore, the air coming out of the tank is significantly cooler than in normal circumstances, thus decreasing the chance that the tank will be detetced by its heat signature.

The EL-35 is also equipped with Hydropneumatic suspsension and the Souvlaki Industries Type 82 transmission, with 4 foward and 2 reverse gears. The Type 97 Auxiliary Power Unit is also installed in the rear right section of the hull, to provide electrical power when stationary, without the high fuel consumption and large infrared signature caused by running the main engine.

Armament
The Eagle MBT is equipped with a new cannon, designated as Type 7 Cannon - 140mm L50 smoothbore cannon. Rounds fired from the Type 7 cannon are propelled from Electrothermal-Chemical (ETC) ignition systems. The ETC ignition is provided by a flashboard large area emitter (FLARE), which works by vaporizing and ionizing short gaps between metal diamonds (such as copper) over long strings. A return conductor drives the created plasma towards a vacuum, which is ideally towards the propellant of the round. The solid propellant is catalyzed by a mix of the plasma and heat radiation, convection and conduction.

Apart from the Type 7 cannon,the Eagle MBT utilises the Type 56 15.5mm coaxial heavy machinegun, mounted on the left of the cannon. Additionally, the Eagle MBT can mount the Type 29 30mm Autocannon on the rear of the right hatch. The gun can be opeated from inside the tank, without having to manually operate it from the outside (which is very dangerous) with the Type 2 Remotely Operated Weapon Utilisation System (ROWUS). The weapon is still mounted outside the vehicle, but it is operated by the commander from inside the tank.

But for remotely operated weapons, the how to remain accurate when the vehicle is on the move has proven to be a problem for designers. To solve it, 3 seperate stabilisers use gyroscopes for stabilisation, while electro-optic scopes are used to relay the data back to the system at the speed of light. This instantanious feedback means that ROWUS can stay locked on its target, no matter what the vehicle does or how much recoil there is from the weapon. Highly sophisticated digital software even analyses the image,to give the operator an early warning of danger. In addition, on the left hatch there is an additional Model 105 Heavy Machinegun, which can be used in case the ROWUS operated weapon malfunctions. This can be replaced by other 12.7mm or even 14mm Heavy Machineguns by the export client, whether during the production phase or in the feild.

Ammunition and Autolodaing Mechanism
The electronically powered Type 450 turret on the personnel variant accommodates the commander on the right and gunner on the left, a fire control system and the main and coaxial weapons. Primary Armament includes the Type 07 140mm L50 cannon, which can fire the following types of ammunition:

APFSDS-Armor Piercing Fin Stabilised Discarding Sabot
APFSDS rounds, like bullets, use kinetic energy to penetrate the intended target. It is in fact,a narrow metal dart, covered by a discarding sabot. The sabot, the primer and the round do not take up much space, therefore the amount of the propellant inside the round is increased. When the round is fired, the covering sabot is discarded from the round,and the round accelerates, gaining Kinetic Energy. All that energy is then concentrated into a single spot on the enemy armor, achieving penetration at an effective range of 6 Kilometers.

DU-APFSDS-Depleted Uranium Armor Piercing Fin Stabilised Discarding Sabot
DU-APFSDS rounds are variants of APFSDS rounds, designed for better penetration of armor.The penetrator is covered with Depleted Uranium,and when the round is fired,and the sabot discarded, the DU helps by reducing the resistance of the impact, achieving better penetration. Effective range is at 6 Kilometers.

HEAT-High Explosive Anti Tank
HEAT rounds use an explosive charge to penetrate armor. When the projectile hits the target, the hot,molten copper is compressed into a narrow jet that penetrates the armor of light armored vehicles, and can eliminate unarmored vehicles with ease. Effective Range is at 1.000 meters.

APAM-Anti Personnel/Anti Materiel
APAM is a round designed to engage infantry squads equipped with anti-tank weapons. In addition to dismounted infantrymen, the APAM round can engage light armored vehicles, targets protected by 50.8 cm of reinforced concrete, bunkers of sand and timber construction,as well as hovering helicopters. Following an overhead attack trajectory, the round dispenses six submunitions which shower lethal fragments over an area of 50 meters long per 20 meters wide to engage exposed infatry and helicopters. To attack bunkers, vehicles and fortifications, the APAM is fired as an unitary round. Effective range is at 3 Kilometers.

RTR-Rubber Training Round
The RTR round is used in training. Though it is propelled like a normal round, and does obtain some kinetic energy, the round bounces off target when impact with hard surfaces. Effective Range is at 1.5 Kilometers.

To load a round into the barrel of the cannon, a turret-bustle mounted type autoloader, designated as theType 5 autoloader is used. Rounds are stored on a conveyer-belt type chain inside a bustle behind fighting compartment of the turret. The commander or gunner selects the type of round, the belt turns and aligns the correct round to the loading window. The gun returns to its loading angle (vertically), the round is released and is pushed/pulled into the breach by a loading rod/hook. The breach then locks and the gun is ready to fire. The autoloader usually has the ability to memorise the sequence of type of rounds inside the bustle and allows rapid fire of rounds of the same type.

Each of the 39 rounds stored in the tank has a barcode printed on them.There is a scanner in the loader that scans each shell,giving information about its type, and hence ammunitions can be loaded in random order and the autoloader will be able to remember which round is which, meaning that ammunition anomalies can be detected.

Certain advantages of this autoloading mechanism are:
-The simplicity of the design makes it less prone to a possible failure.
-The ammunition storage area is separated from the crew compartment by armoured bulkheads and if pressure venting blow-out top plates are also fitted then dangers to crews in case of ammunition cook-off by penetration can be minimised.
-The ammunition is always behind the thick turret front, and since during combat even when the enemy engages from the side, the turret can turn facing the enemy much faster than the whole tank.
-This design also allows for the rapid replacement of the autoloader and reloading of the ready ammunition by making the compartment at the rear of the turret a modular component that can be easily replaced with appropriate support equipment, similar to how the US M270 MLRS system is reloaded.

This autoloader reduces reload time to 3 seconds and the ammunition is seperated from the crew by an armored blowout bulkhead, increasing the survivability of the crew.Horizontal ammunition arrangement in the turret bustle permits using longer and therefore, more powerful rounds.

Crew and Electronics
The 3-man crew (driver,tank gunner,commander) is seated inside the hull of the tank. A specialised cantine is designed to provide enough water and snacks for 72 hours of combat operations. Each crewman has 6 LCD screens providing data over the integrated combat network. Plus, exterior high-resolution cameras with light-intensification sensors, infrared cameras,an infrared laser rangefinder, and an integrated Electronic Support Measures (ESM) array, are all included with the tank and give a 360 degree picture of the surrounding area.

The Defender Countermeasures system is designed to disrupt laser target designation and rangefinders of an incoming ATGM. The Defender includes a laser warning package that warns the tank crew when it is being lased and an optical-electric jammer, for diverting any guided ATGM away from its original target. Additionally,there is a grenade discharging system which produces an aerosol smoke screen for covering the vehicle in tense situations, along with a computerized control system to coordinate the vehicle's SADS active defense system (described in the Armour and Protection section), for intercepting any Anti Tank weapons The Defender Countermeasures system fails to intercept, like RPG rounds.

The Type 55 FINDERS Multi-Sensor Target Aquisition system allows the tank crew to easily identify and track down up to 7 targets of their choice, using equipped sensors and existing intelligence. The Type 70 Based Fire Control System is equipped with the Type 87 Fire Control Radar, capable of tracking down enemy forces that fired ballistic rounds, by tracing back the trajectories to their source, and producing the enemies' coordinates. Protection against electromagnetic interference and EMP attack is provided by the use of fiber optic cabling and circuitry composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack and the crew area is coated with a conductive coating. A grounding chain is connected to the rear of the vehicle.

Variants
The EL-35 has 2 variants; the Main Battle Tank Version and the EL-35 AVLB Version; the latter has a launchable bridge in the place of the turret, which can be used to move ground forces more quickly. It can launch a 25 meter bridge in under 75 seconds.

EL-10 "Tigris" Light Tank
Image


Overview
The EL-10 Tigris Light Tank is designed to bring tank-level firepower on a platform faster than Main Battle Tanks. It is also small and light enough to be carried by LGDS and ENAMI transport aircraft. Armed with a Type 04 120mm L44 cannon, igniting rounds via an ETC system and with many more electronics, the EL-10 Tiger is a Light tank with a force to be reckoned with.

Background
As UR tank market lacked Light Tanks, and as airborne forces nowadays require a light tank to assist them in combat operations, ENAMI began develloping a Light Tank in 2007. Development was complete in May 2009 and since then it has been a mainstray in Eagleland Airborne Forces.

Armour and Protection

The EL-10 is a well protected armored vehicle that utilizes spaced aluminum/titanium alloy armor that is able to withstand 30mm APFSDS projectiles to the front and side of the vehicle. The roof of the vehicle is able to withstand withstand artillery or mortar bomblets. There are six 8 shot smoke launchers installed on the back of the turret. The GALIX system is installed, which coordinates smoke grenades, anti-personell grenades (for urban combat) and Infra-Red screening rounds.

The whole vehicle is protected against heavy blast mines (up to 10kg) and projectile charges from below while retaining 450mm ground clearance. Almost all equipment within the cabin, including the seats, has no direct contact to the floor. All cabin roof hatches are of the side-slide type which make them easier to open manually, even when they are obstructed by debris. The exhaust is mixed with fresh air and vented at the rear left side. Together with a special IR-suppressing paint, this aims at reducing the thermal signature of the vehicle.

The EL-10 features Ekrixi Explosive Reactive Armor plates installed on the side of the armor and on the turret, and acts as a fourth layer of armor. ERA armor, such as Ekrixi, use an explosive charge to eliminate (or in most cases, weaken) the threat to the tank. An element of explosive reactive armour consists of a sheet or slab of high explosive sandwiched between two plates, typically metal, called the reactive or dynamic elements. The explosion generated by it's reaction is enough to weaken or sometimes destroy the threat posed to the vehicle, but nearby infantry is also in danger, as the explosion produces sharpnel, therefore dismounted infantry units are instructed to keep their distance from EL-10's equipped with Ekrixi ERA. In case a fire breaks out inside the vehicle, the EL-10's Saviour fire extinguishing system is designed to be activated in no more than 2 miliseconds of the fire outbreak, and can extinguish it winthin 300 miliseconds.

Propulsion, Transmission and Suspension
The engine is the Souvlaki Industries 12-cylinder diesel, which produces 670 horsepower. The transversal mount of the engine enables the wheel drive, cardan shaft for the waterjet drives and electric bilge pump to be located underneath. Transmission is hydromechanical with a hydrostatic gearbox (4 foward, 2 reverse gears) for the steering gear and power take-off for the water jets. The EL-10 includes a Hydropneumatic Suspension system.The Type 97 Auxiliary Power Unit is also installed in the rear right section of the hull, to provide electrical power when stationary, without the high fuel consumption and large infrared signature caused by running the main engine.

Armament
The electronically powered Type 450 turret on the personnel variant accommodates the commander on the right and gunner on the left, a fire control system and the main and coaxial weapons. The Primary Armament is the Type 04 120mm L44 cannon, designed to fire APFSDFS, APFSDFS-DU, HEAT, RTR and APAM rounds. On top of the Turret, there is a ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon (see EL-35 for more on ROWUS). The Type 450 also includes a second coaxial gun, being the Model 56 LMG firing 6.3mm caseless rounds.
The EL-10 includes the Black Eagle Autoloader System, in which:

- The autoloader module is mounted outside the fighting compartment, and is at all times isolated from it. This both protects the interior in case of the ammunition fire, and increases autoloader reliability.
- In the event of the ammunition fire blowout panels allow to control it and prevent it from damaging the interior of the tank.
- The loading cycle consists of a single ramming movement without the need for any complex trajectory.
- The autoloader has a simple and rugged design and allows to store substantial amount of ammunition due to efficient placement. Adapting the autoloader for different artillery systems is straightforward.
- The autoloader realizes the "rifle clip" concept - the entire depleted autoloader module is meant to be replaced by a new one by means of the dedicated transloader vehicle, facilitating extremely fast replenishment of ammunition and allowing to quickly address the autoloader malfunction. There is also provision for replenishing it one round at a time by the crew should the need arise.

Crew and Electronics
The vehicle has fire-on-the-move capability and the hit probability is 90% at a range of 1,200m. The turret is equipped with a compact modular sight developed by ENAMI which includes a thermal imaging sight, laser rangefinder and Orasi dual-axis head assembly (DAHA). The DAHA is gyroscopically stabilised to 50mrad in azimuth and in elevation and provides the stabilised line of sight for the weapon fire control system on vehicle.

The fire control system is automatic with manual override for both gunner and commander. It includes a Type 110 ballistic computer, Type 76 electro-mechanical armament stabiliser and Type 82 laser rangefinder. The gunner has a Type 22A main sight, a combined image-intensified day / night sight and Type 22B standby day sight. The commander has a Type 23 day sight and Type 21 combined day and image-intensified night sight. It also provides protection against nuclear, biological, and chemical threats. The Defender Countermeasures system, a grenade discharging system, the SADS active defense system and The Defender Countermeasures and the Type 55 FINDERS Multi-Sensor Target Aquisition System are also present.

Protection against electromagnetic interference and EMP attack is provided by the use of fiber optic cabling and circuitry composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack and the crew area is coated with a conductive coating. A grounding chain is connected to the rear of the vehicle.

EL-24 "Drakos" Infantry Fighting Vehicle
Image


Overview
The EL-24 "Drakos" Infantry Fighting Vehicle is designed to be able to transport infantry into the battlefeild, while having sufficient Armor to defend itself and enough firepower to fire back at opponents; 2 30mm autocannons; 1 100 mm cannon and 1 Model 45 6.3mm coaxial cannon. It is equipped with state-of-the-art electronics and is capable of crossing bodies of water. In essence it is an Infantry Fighting Vehicle that, under certain conditions, can engage armored vehicles such as tanks.

Background
The EL-24 "Drakos" IFV project came up as the need for an IFV became evident in 2009, when the Eagleland was close to participating with Cerberii on their intervention to protect a Jewish state from being eradicated by Greater Ithera; in that war, mobile IFVs provided Itherans with the excessive amount of speed and firepower needed to execute a modernised form of "Blitzkrieg", rapidly defeating Cerberiin and Pensylvanian defenders, alongside the now inexistent Jewish state's defense forces, without suffering at least one casualty. This encouraged ENAMI to devellop an IFV capable of providing infantry forces with enough speed to move quickly yet with enough firepower for offensive and defensive purposes. As of 2011, the EL-24 is the main IFV of the Eagleland Land Forces.

Armor and Protection
The EL-24 is a well protected armored vehicle that utilizes spaced aluminum/titanium alloy armor that is able to withstand 30mm APFSDS projectiles to the front and side of the vehicle. The roof of the vehicle is able to withstand withstand artillery or mortar bomblets. There are six 8 shot smoke launchers installed on the back of the turret. The GALIX system is installed, which coordinates smoke grenades, anti-personell grenades (for urban combat) and Infra-Red screening rounds, that produce strong heat sources for Anti-Tank missiles and interfere with thermal and infra-red scanners. The whole vehicle is protected against heavy blast mines (up to 10kg) and projectile charges from below while retaining 450mm ground clearance. The exhaust is mixed with fresh air and vented at the rear left side. Together with a special IR-suppressing paint, this aims at reducing the thermal signature of the vehicle.

The EL-24 features Ekrixi Explosive Reactive Armor plates installed on the side of the armor and on the turret, and acts as a fourth layer of armor. ERA armor, such as Ekrixi, use an explosive charge to eliminate (or in most cases, weaken) the threat to the tank. An element of explosive reactive armour consists of a sheet or slab of high explosive sandwiched between two plates, typically metal, called the reactive or dynamic elements. On attack by a penetrating weapon, the explosive detonates, forcibly driving the metal plates apart to damage the penetrator. Against a shaped charge, the projected plates disrupt the metallic jet penetrator, effectively providing a greater path-length of material to be penetrated. Against a long rod penetrator, the projected plates serve to deflect and break up the rod.

The disruption is attributed to two mechanisms. First, the moving plates change the effective velocity and angle of impact of the shaped charge jet, reducing the angle of incidence and increasing the effective jet velocity versus the plate element. Second, since the plates are angled compared to the usual impact direction of shaped charge warheads, as the plates move outwards the impact point on the plate moves over time, requiring the jet to cut through fresh plate material. This second effect significantly increases the effective plate thickness during the impact. The explosion generated by that reaction is enough to weaken or sometimes destroy the threat posed to the vehicle, but nearby infantry is also in danger, as the explosion produces sharpnel, therefore dismounted infantry units are instructed to keep their distance from EL-24's equipped with Ekrixi ERA.

Propulsion,Suspension and Transmission
The engine is the Souvlaki Industries 12-cylinder diesel, which produces 820kw. The transversal mount of the engine enables the wheel drive, cardan shaft for the waterjet drives and electric bilge pump to be located underneath. Transmission is hydromechanical with a hydrostatic gearbox (4 foward, 2 reverse gears) for the steering gear and power take-off for the water jets. The EL-24 includes a Hydropneumatic Suspension system.The Type 97 Auxiliary Power Unit is also installed in the rear right section of the hull, to provide electrical power when stationary, without the high fuel consumption and large infrared signature caused by running the main engine.

Armament
The electronically powered Type 450 turret on the personnel variant accommodates the commander on the right and gunner on the left, a fire control system and the main and coaxial weapons. The Primary Armament is the Type 05 100mm gun, firing HEAT shells at a range of 4 Kilometers, with a muzzle velocity of 250 m/s. It might not penetrate heavy tanks, but it is a threat to other APCs and IFVs, with light vehicles' survival when confronting such shells being out of the question. Secondary armaments include 2 30mm Autocannons; one is part of the Type 450 turret and is a coaxial gun; the other is ROWUS-operated, on top of the turret (see EL-35 for more details on ROWUS). The Type 450 also includes a second coaxial gun, being the Model 56 LMG firing 6.3mm caseless rounds.

Crew and Electronics
The vehicle is operated by a crew of three: vehicle commander, gunner and driver. The personnel variant carries 7 fully equipped soldiers, each with individual combat equipment. The vehicle has internal stowage for each soldier's ammunition and march-load equipment, i.e. the load for the prosecution of combat operations for extended periods with access to daily resupply. The vehicle is also capable of carrying other crews and equipment, and has a cargo capacity of 8,150lb in lieu of infantrymen. Soldiers can fire their weapons from side mounted firing ports.

The vehicle has fire-on-the-move capability and the hit probability is 90% at a range of 1,200m. The turret is equipped with a compact modular sight developed by ENAMI which includes a thermal imaging sight, laser rangefinder and Orasi dual-axis head assembly (DAHA). The DAHA is gyroscopically stabilised to 50mrad in azimuth and in elevation and provides the stabilised line of sight for the weapon fire control system on vehicle.

Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack and the crew area is coated with a conductive coating. A grounding chain is connected to the rear of the vehicle.

The fire control system is automatic with manual override for both gunner and commander.

The gunner has a Type 22A main sight, a combined image-intensified day / night sight and Type 22B standby day sight. The driver is also equipped with three forward periscopes plus one periscope to the left. The commander has a Type 23 day sight and Type 21 combined day and image-intensified night sight. The Defender Countermeasures system, a grenade discharging system, the SADS active defense system and The Defender Countermeasures and the Type 55 FINDERS Multi-Sensor Target Aquisition System are also present.

EL-80 "Gypas" Self Prepelled Anti Aircraft Gun
Image


Overview
The EL-80 "Gypas (Vulture)"is a gun/missile system for low-level air defence. The system was designed by ENAMI and is manufactured in ENAMI's production facilites in Ikaria, Eagleland. It can engage targets while stationary and on the move, using missiles for long-range targets and guns for close-in defence. It is designed for defence against both fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters and can also fire on ground targets.

Background
The EL-80 SPAAG came up as a need for the Eagleland Land Forces for a new SPAAG system that could engage any aircraft at close ranges with it's 2 cannons and long range aircraft with it's missiles. The EL-08 entered service in 2009.

Armour and Protection
The EL-80 is a well protected armored vehicle that utilizes spaced aluminum/titanium alloy armor that is able to withstand 30mm APFSDS projectiles to the front and side of the vehicle. The roof of the vehicle is able to withstand withstand artillery or mortar bomblets. There are six 8 shot smoke launchers installed on the back of the turret. The GALIX system is installed, which coordinates smoke grenades, anti-personell grenades (for urban combat) and Infra-Red screening rounds, that produce strong heat sources for Anti-Tank missiles and interfere with thermal and infra-red scanners.

The whole vehicle is protected against heavy blast mines (up to 10kg) and projectile charges from below while retaining 450mm ground clearance. Almost all equipment within the cabin, including the seats, has no direct contact to the floor. All cabin roof hatches are of the side-slide type which make them easier to open manually, even when they are obstructed by debris. The exhaust is mixed with fresh air and vented at the rear left side. Together with a special IR-suppressing paint, this aims at reducing the thermal signature of the vehicle. The EL-80 features Ekrixi Explosive Reactive Armor plates installed on the side of the armor and on the turret, and acts as a fourth layer of armor. ERA armor, such as Ekrixi, use an explosive charge to eliminate (or in most cases, weaken) the threat to the vehicle.

Propulsion,Suspension and Transmission
The engine is the Souvlaki Industries 12-cylinder twin turbocharged diesel, which produces 671 kw. Transmission is hydromechanical with a hydrostatic gearbox (4 foward, 2 reverse gears) for the steering gear and power take-off for the water jets. The EL-80 includes a Hydropneumatic Suspension system.The Type 97 Auxiliary Power Unit is also installed in the rear right section of the hull, to provide electrical power when stationary, without the high fuel consumption and large infrared signature caused by running the main engine.

Armament
The electronically powered Type 450 turret on the personnel variant accommodates the commander on the right and gunner on the left, a fire control system and the main and coaxial weapons. The Primary Armament are the Type76 40mm cannons. The cannons are fired alternatively with a combined rate of fire of between 3,900 and 5,000 rounds per minute (1,950 to 2,500 rpm for each gun), and have a muzzle velocity of 1050 m/s. Bursts of between 83 and 250 rounds are fired as determined by the target type, with an engagement range between 0.2 and 4.0 km and to an altitude of 4 km. HE-T and HE-I shells are used and fitted with a time and impact fuze which includes an arming delay and self destruct mechanism. The cannons can be elevated and depressed to +87 to -10 degrees and as such can be used to engage ground as well as aerial targets. The vehicle also vehicle carries eight surface-to-air missiles of any kind. Range is from 15 to 6,000m for ground targets and 15 to 10,000m for air targets.

Crew and Electronics
The vehicle is operated by a crew of three: vehicle commander, gunner and driver. The vehicle has fire-on-the-move capability and the hit probability is 90% at a range of 1,200m. The turret is equipped with a compact modular sight developed by ENAMI which includes a thermal imaging sight, laser rangefinder and Orasi dual-axis head assembly (DAHA).

EL-04 "Vatrachos" Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle
Image


Background
Traditionally, the militaries of the Unified Realm relied on LCACs and Landing Craft to Land Marine forces during beach assaults. The Eagleland Armed Forces, however, always were a step ahead, utilising AAVs before the main LCAC assault, so as to soften up the front line. The idea is that a softened up frontline will be much easier to crush.

But the previous AAVs of Eagleland origin, particularly the EL-03, which were based of the AAVP7-A1, were slow, were not as protected and were not powerful enough to "soften up the frontline". By entering the 21st century, with speed being more important than ever, LCACs now became faster than most AAVs. This was realised by Eagleland high command, and so ENAMI was tasked with making an Amphibious Assault Vehicle that is much faster on the water, on land, has more firepower and protection, whilst retaining the crew capacity AAVs offer.

Overview
The EL-04 Βάτραχος (Frog) is an Amphibious Assault vehicle designed on the above mentioned requirements. It is an amphibious armored tracked vehicle with an aluminum hull. The engine is a customised Souvlaki Industries Type 456 with two modes of operation; a high power mode for planing over the sea, and a low power mode for land travel. It has a crew of three and can transport 17 soldiers and their equipment.

The hull has a hydraulically actuated bow flap to aid planing with a maximum waterborne speed of 46 kilometres per hour (25 knots). Shrouded Souvlaki Industries Model 767 waterjet propulsors are integrated into each side of the hull. It is also outfitted with hydraulically actuated chines to cover the tracks while in seafaring mode. The rear loading ramp is not able to open while the vehicle is afloat, however. Access to the troop compartment is via a hydraulically operated rear ramp. A troop door is also fitted into the ramp and two sliding hatches are installed in the roof over the troop compartment.

Armour and Protection
The GALIX system is installed, which coordinates smoke grenades, anti-personell grenades (for urban combat) and Infra-Red screening rounds, that produce strong heat sources for Anti-Tank missiles and interfere with thermal and infra-red scanners. For protection aganist ATGMs, the EL-04 features the SADS (Spheric Active Defense System). It includes an F/G band fire-control radar with four flat-panel antennas mounted on the vehicle, with a 360-degree field of view. When a weapon is fired at the vehicle, the internal computer uses the signal from the incoming weapon and calculates an approach vector. Once the incoming weapon has been identified and its course has been predicted, then the computers calculate the optimal time and angle to fire the neutralizers to intercept the threat at a distance of between 5 to 30 meters from the protected vehicle.

These neutralizers are stored in two rotating launchers installed on the sides of the vehicle. The launchers are normally stowed behind armored plating and only deploy when a threat is detected. The launchers fire the neutralizing agents, which explode in clusters,exactly in front of the threat, delfelcting it in less than 2 miliseconds, and ensuring that it will not cause any serious damage to the vehicle.

The system is designed to have a very small kill zone, so as not to endanger troops adjacent to the protected vehicle. Additionally, the system can track and defend against multiple threats from all directions. The hull and turret are constructed from aluminium alloy armour. Protection also includes steel external straps fitted on the turret, side armour displacement panels and a double-bottom at the front of the vehicle.

Propulsion, Supsension and Transmission
The EL-04 is powered by a 2,800hp dual-use (for land and water) Souvlaki Industries diesel engine. The 12-cylinder diesel engine is mounted in the centre of the vehicle. On metalled roads the maximum speed is over 72 Km/h. The actively damped hydropneumatic suspension units, supplied by Souvlaki Industries, and the vehicle's lightweight band track reduce the noise and vibration and give a more comfortable and fuel-efficient ride for the crew.

The continuous moulded lightweight band track was developed by Strength Rubber Inc. and provides traction and strength comparable to the heavier, standard block-type track. The vehicle has seven pairs of road wheels and hydro-pneumatic suspension units fitted with automatic ride height control. In order to sustain movement in the transition between water and land drive, for example in movement in water over high corals reefs which would otherwise cause dangerous hang-ups for amphibious assault vehicles, the vehicle is equipped with a power transfer module supplied by Souvlaki Industries' Transmission Division.

The power transfer module automatically shares engine power between waterjets and the vehicle tracks according to how it senses the need. The powertrain and the driveline absorb the transition shock as the vehicle rapidly shifts from one operating mode to another while the vehicle traverses obstacles such as coral mounds in the water. When the vehicle is afloat, the engine couples via the power transfer module to Souvlaki Industries counter-rotating 582 milimeter water jets mounted on both sides of the vehicle. In endurance tests and in high water speed tests the vehicles have regularly demonstrated high water speeds of more than 25 knots in significant wave heights (SWH) of more than 90 centimeters. In the water, the prow plate opens forwards, the flaps over the water jets open and the hydropneumatic suspension retracts. Five bilge pumps, two electric and three hydraulically driven, are installed to maintain buoyancy.

Armament
The electronically powered Type 450 turret on the personnel variant accommodates the commander on the right and gunner on the left, a fire control system and the main and coaxial weapons. The Type 450 turret incorporates a 57mm Type 43 Cobra automatic gun which has a firing rate of 165 rounds a minute, and 230 rounds of ammunition. A Model 56 6.3mm caseless light machine gun with 600 rounds of ready-to-use ammunition is mounted coaxially with the main gun. Smoke grenade launchers are installed on the hull.

Ammunition
The Type 43 57mm Cobra Cannon can fire the following ammunition types:

HEDP
High Explosive Dual Purpose round. It has 2 settings: Impact or Airburst. Impact mode sets the round to explode on contact, ideal for the destruction of light vehicles. Airburst mode activates a sensor in the bullet, and based on the sensor settings, it can explode from 1 to 10 meters away from the target. The sensor is activated once the round exits the barrel. Since it explodes in the air it is effective against infantry, whether exposed or inside a building, in which case they can be neutralised without causing collateral damage. Effective Range is at 2 Kilometers.

APDS
Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot. Like bullets, such rounds use kinetic energy to penetrate the intended target. It is in fact,a narrow metal dart, covered by a discarding sabot. The sabot, the primer and the round do not take up much space, therefore the amount of the propellant inside the round is increased. When the round is fired, the covering sabot is discarded from the round,and the round accelerates, gaining Kinetic Energy. All that energy is then concentrated into a single spot on the enemy armor, achieving penetration at an effective range of 4 Kilometers.

APDS-DU
Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot - Depleted Uranium. APDS-DU rounds are variants of APDS rounds, designed for better penetration of armor.The penetrator is covered with Depleted Uranium,and when the round is fired,and the sabot discarded, the DU helps by reducing the resistance of the impact, achieving better penetration. Effective range is at 4 Kilometers.

RTR
Rubber Training Round. The RTR round is used in training. Though it is propelled like a normal round, and does obtain some kinetic energy, the round bounces off target when impact with hard surfaces. Effective Range is at 1 Kilometer.

Crew and Electronics
The vehicle is operated by a crew of three: vehicle commander, gunner and driver. The personnel variant carries 17 fully equipped soldiers, each with individual combat equipment. The vehicle has internal stowage for each soldier's ammunition and march-load equipment, i.e. the load for the prosecution of combat operations for extended periods with access to daily resupply. The vehicle is also capable of carrying other crews and equipment, and has a cargo capacity of 8,150lb in lieu of infantrymen.

The vehicle has fire-on-the-move capability and the hit probability is 90% at a range of 1,200m. The turret is equipped with a compact modular sight developed by ENAMI which includes a thermal imaging sight, laser rangefinder and Orasi dual-axis head assembly (DAHA). The DAHA is gyroscopically stabilised to 50mrad in azimuth and in elevation and provides the stabilised line of sight for the weapon fire control system on vehicle. Protection against electromagnetic interference and EMP attack is provided by the use of fiber optic cabling and circuitry composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack and the crew area is coated with a conductive coating. A grounding chain is connected to the rear of the vehicle.

The fire control system is automatic with manual override for both gunner and commander. It includes a Type 110 ballistic computer, Type 76 electro-mechanical armament stabiliser and Type 82 laser rangefinder. The gunner has a Type 22A main sight, a combined image-intensified day / night sight and Type 22B standby day sight. The driver is also equipped with three forward periscopes plus one periscope to the left. The commander has a Type 23 day sight and Type 21 combined day and image-intensified night sight. It also provides protection against nuclear, biological, and chemical threats. The Defender Countermeasures system, a grenade discharging system, the SADS active defense system and The Defender Countermeasures and the Type 55 FINDERS Multi-Sensor Target Aquisition System are also present.

Variants
The EL-04 comes in 2 variants; the EL-04 EFV-CMB and EL-04 EFV-COM. The former is the combat version, the latter is the comand version, which can only equip 7 fully equipped troops, instead of 17, in the combat version, as a lot of room is spent on more electronics for enhanced Command and Communications capabilities.

EL-95 "Tethorakismenos Metaforeas" Armored Personnel Carrier
Image


Overview
The EL-95 is an armored personnel carrier, considered as the most versatile ground vehicle offered by ENAMI. It has 5 versions; Infantry Carrier, Command Vehicle, Mortar Carrier, Armored Ambulance and Mobile Gun System. The EL-95 is known as "Τεθωρακισμένος Μεταφορέας", meaning "Armored Transporter", for it's role as an APC. It is mobile, lightweight and fast.

Background
The Eagleland's land mass is over 67% Alpine. Therefore, snows are frequent in most places, even in the summer months. For such environments, the Eagleland Armed Forces require an APC which is fast, adaptable and durable in such conditions, as according to the Armed Forces' 2nd doctrine, "Speed is water for victory". The EL-95 "Tethorakismenos Metaforeas" was intorduced in 2009 and since then, it has been the main APC for the Eagleland Land Forces.

Armor and Protection
The EL-95 is a well protected armored vehicle that utilizes spaced aluminum/titanium alloy armor that is able to withstand 30mm APFSDS projectiles to the front and side of the vehicle. The roof of the vehicle is able to withstand withstand artillery or mortar bomblets. There are six 8 shot smoke launchers installed on the turret. The GALIX system is installed, which coordinates smoke grenades, anti-personell grenades (for urban combat) and Infra-Red screening rounds, that produce strong heat sources for Anti-Tank missiles and interfere with thermal and infra-red scanners. The whole vehicle is protected against heavy blast mines (up to 10kg) and projectile charges from below while retaining 450mm ground clearance. The exhaust is mixed with fresh air and vented at the rear left side. Together with a special IR-suppressing paint, this aims at reducing the thermal signature of the vehicle.

The EL-95 features Ekrixi Explosive Reactive Armor plates installed on the side of the armor and on the turret, and acts as a fourth layer of armor. ERA armor, such as Ekrixi, use an explosive charge to eliminate (or in most cases, weaken) the threat to the tank. An element of explosive reactive armour consists of a sheet or slab of high explosive sandwiched between two plates, typically metal, called the reactive or dynamic elements. On attack by a penetrating weapon, the explosive detonates, forcibly driving the metal plates apart to damage the penetrator. Against a shaped charge, the projected plates disrupt the metallic jet penetrator, effectively providing a greater path-length of material to be penetrated. Against a long rod penetrator, the projected plates serve to deflect and break up the rod.

Propulsion, Transmission and Suspension
The engine is the Souvlaki Industries 12-cylinder diesel, which produces 350 hp. The transversal mount of the engine enables the wheel drive, cardan shaft for the waterjet drives and electric bilge pump to be located underneath. Transmission is hydromechanical with a hydrostatic gearbox (6 foward, 1 reverse gears) for the steering gear. The EL-95 includes a Hydropneumatic Suspension system.The Type 97 Auxiliary Power Unit is also installed in the rear right section of the hull, to provide electrical power when stationary, without the high fuel consumption and large infrared signature caused by running the main engine.

The EL-95 can alter the pressure in all eight tires to suit terrain conditions: highway, cross-country, mud/sand/snow, and emergency. The system warns the driver if the vehicle exceeds the recommended speed for its tire pressure, then automatically inflates the tires to the next higher pressure setting. The system can also warn the driver of a flat tire, although the EL-95 is equipped with run-flat tire inserts that also serve as bead-locks, allowing the vehicle to move several miles before the tire completely deteriorates.

Armament
Principal Armament varies from version to version. In the Infantry Transport, Armored Ambulance and Command Vehicle Versions, the main armament is a ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon; in the Mobile Gun version, principal armament includes a Type 02 L50 105mm cannon, which fires APFSDFS, APFSDFS-DU, HEAT and APAM rounds, loaded via the "Black Eagle" Autoloading Mechanism. In the mortar carrier version, principal armament includes a Model 220 120mm mortar. Coaxial Armament includes a 6.3mm Type 56 LMG.

Crew and Electronics
The vehicle is operated by a crew of three: vehicle commander, gunner and driver. The personnel variant carries 9 fully equipped soldiers, each with individual combat equipment. The vehicle has internal stowage for each soldier's ammunition and march-load equipment, i.e. the load for the prosecution of combat operations for extended periods with access to daily resupply. The vehicle is also capable of carrying other crews and equipment, and has a cargo capacity of 8,150lb in lieu of infantrymen. Soldiers can fire their weapons from side mounted firing ports.

The vehicle has fire-on-the-move capability and the hit probability is 90% at a range of 1,200m. The turret is equipped with a compact modular sight developed by ENAMI which includes a thermal imaging sight, laser rangefinder and Orasi dual-axis head assembly (DAHA). The DAHA is gyroscopically stabilised to 50mrad in azimuth and in elevation and provides the stabilised line of sight for the weapon fire control system on vehicle.

Protection against electromagnetic interference and EMP attack is provided by the use of fiber optic cabling and circuitry composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack, the crew area is coated with a conductive coating, and all doors and wiring/tubing pathways through protective shielding is sealed with conductive gaskets as is the vehicle itself. A grounding chain is connected to the rear of the vehicle.

The fire control system is automatic with manual override for both gunner and commander. It includes a Type 110 ballistic computer, Type 76 electro-mechanical armament stabiliser and Type 82 laser rangefinder. The gunner has a Type 22A main sight, a combined image-intensified day / night sight and Type 22B standby day sight. The driver is also equipped with three forward periscopes plus one periscope to the left. The commander has a Type 23 day sight and Type 21 combined day and image-intensified night sight. The Defender Countermeasures system, a grenade discharging system, the SADS active defense system and The Defender Countermeasures and the Type 55 FINDERS Multi-Sensor Target Aquisition System are also present.

Variants
The EL-95 comes in 5 variants: Infantry Carrier, Command Vehicle, Mortar Carrier, Armored Ambulance and Mobile Gun System. The Infantry Carrier version is the "standard" version, which carries 3 crewmen with 9 passengers and includes a ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon. The Command Vehicle has more communications equipment and the same ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon, but it has only 4 passengers. The Mortar Carrier has 3 crew, 2 passengers and 1 Model 220 mortar. The Armored Mabulance has 3 crew, 3 passengers, capacity for 3 wounded and a ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon. The Mobile Gun System includes only 3 crew and only 2 passengers, however it's Type 02 L50 105mm cannon is the principal armament, with a ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon for the commander.

EL-56 "Panthiras" Reconnaissance Vehicle
Image


Overview
The EL-56 "Panthiras" Reconnaissance Vehicle is designed to be a fast, technologically advanced platform designed for reconnaissance missions on any terrain. However, it includes a ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon, the latter of which can be replaced by a 40mm grenade launcher, 4 missile launchers or a 12.7mm HMG.

Background
Reconnaissance is a necessity in warfare. The Eagleland Armed Forces understand it well, and ENAMI has designed the EL-56 Panther Recon Vehicle exactly for that purpose. However, the EAF's has also requested that the EL-56 have adequate firepower to protect itself, as well as the speed to get away from any situation.

Features
The EL-56 has four wheels with selectable two or four wheel drive. It has a Souvlaki Industries Grigoros diesel engine producing 179 kW, giving it a top speed of 115 km/h. Tire pressure can be regulated by the driver from inside the vehicle to suit terrain conditions. The vehicle also has disk brakes on all 4 wheels, and 4-wheel double-wishbone suspension. The brake disks are not mounted at the wheels as on conventional automobiles, but inboard mounted disk brakes, which are attached to the outside of each differential. The vehicle is operated by a crew of 3: Driver, Weapon/Camera Operator and Electronics/Communications Operator.

The primary mission equipment is an observation package mounted on an extendable mast. Sensors include a thermal imager, daylight camera and a laser rangefinder. Combined with the vehicle's GPS and inertial navigation system the operator can accurately mark targets or points of interest and pass that data to the digital battlefield network. The sensor head of the observation package can also be removed and mounted on a tripod for concealed operation, as can the control unit from the vehicle should the crew want to use the entire system dismounted. It can also be equipped with Mini UAVs, as the control station inside the vehicle, controlled by the third passenger, can be linked directly to the UAVs camera feed.

A Type 27 Fire Detector Unit unit attaches on a mast to the rear of a vehicle and uses an array of seven small microphone sensors. The sensors detect and measure both the muzzle blast and the supersonic shock wave from a speeding bullet as it zips through the air above the speed of sound. Each microphone picks up the sound waves at slightly different times. It then uses sophisticated algorithms to compute what direction a bullet is coming from, and how high above the ground and how far away the shooter is, all in less than one second. Users receive simultaneous visual and auditory information on the point of fire on a dash mounted display and integrated speakers. For example, if someone is firing from the rear, the system tells the user "Shot, 6 o'clock", an LED lights up at the 6 o'clock position, and the computer tells the user the shooter's range, elevation, and azimuth.

Protection against electromagnetic interference and EMP attack is provided by the use of fiber optic cabling and circuitry composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack, the crew area is coated with a conductive coating, and all doors and wiring/tubing pathways through protective shielding is sealed with conductive gaskets as is the vehicle itself. A grounding chain is connected to the rear of the vehicle.

The EL-67 "Athinaios" is the High Mobility Multi Purpose Vehicle offered by ENAMI. It is designed as a light transport for troops, and the vehicle itself is adaptable to any situation. Like all ENAMI light vehicles, it includes a ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon, the latter of which can be replaced by a 40mm grenade launcher, 4 missile launchers or a 12.7mm HMG, as well as state-of-the art electronics.

Background
The Orthodox Federation of the Eagleland is a country with a variety of climatic zones; from Mediterranean Climatic Zones to Tundras and Subarctic zones. The need for a High Mobility Multipurpose Vehicle is evident. ENAMI has introduced the EL-67 in 2007 and since then it has been the main HMMV of the Armed Forces.

Features
The EL-67 Athenian is operated by a crew of four – the driver and 3 passengers. The EL-56 has four wheels with selectable two or four wheel drive. It has a Souvlaki Industries 6,5 litre, 4-stroke diesel engine producing 139 kW, giving it a top speed of 110 km/h. Tire pressure can be regulated by the driver from inside the vehicle to suit terrain conditions. The vehicle also has disk brakes on all 4 wheels, and 4-wheel double-wishbone suspension. The brake disks are not mounted at the wheels as on conventional automobiles, but inboard mounted disk brakes, which are attached to the outside of each differential. The crew is protected with ballistic armour comprising aluminium plates internally lined with composite armour. It includes a V-shape hull, for enhanced protection against Anti-Personnel Mines. The armour increases the width of the vehicle by 100mm compared to the width of the basic HMMWV vehicle and provides protection against 7.62mm and 5.56mm BALL projectiles fired from a range as close as 30m or against 7.62mm steel core projectiles from 100m.

A Type 27 Fire Detector Unit unit attaches on a mast to the rear of a vehicle and uses an array of seven small microphone sensors. The sensors detect and measure both the muzzle blast and the supersonic shock wave from a speeding bullet as it zips through the air above the speed of sound. Each microphone picks up the sound waves at slightly different times. It then uses sophisticated algorithms to compute what direction a bullet is coming from, and how high above the ground and how far away the shooter is, all in less than one second.

Image


Overview
The EL-101 Spartiatis MRAP Vehicle is designed to offer enhanced troop transportation capabilities, whilst offering at the same time enhanced protection against explosive weaponry which would knock out other vehicles, as well as the same features one would find in ENAMI's Light Vehicles.

Background
The EL-101 Spartan MRAP came up as a need for the Eagleland Armed Forces for a vehicle that can protect it's crew from ambushes. ENAMI was up to the task in developing the EL-101 for that need in 2008. It was introduced in mid 2009, and since then it has been a favorite vehicle in the Eagleland Armed Forces as well as the main Multi-wheeled, Multi-purpose vehicle of the Marine Forces.

Features

EL-600 "Imitheos" Self-Prepelled Anti-Aircraft Missile System Vehicle
Image


Overview
The EL-600 "Imitheos" Self-Prepelled Anti-Aircraft Missile System Vehicle is a Surface to Air and Anti-Ballistic Missile System that comprises the Quad Tube Type 2204 Vertical Missile Launcher, the self propelled Type 95B5 all altitude detection Active Electronically Scanned Array Radar, the Type 76A22 3D Ladar and the 97M5 Launching station. An EL-600 Battery consist of 4 launchers with a total of 16 missiles, and 1 each Type 95B5, Type 76A22 Ladar and 97M5 station. The entire Battery can cover hundreds of kilometers and can be networked with each other, as well as other EL-600 Vehicles. The system can also receive and utilize data from from aircraft, ships, other ground units and satellites.

Background
The Eagleland, as a very large country, requires an adequate amount of defense, from land, maritime and, for the most part, aerial threats, being anything from aircraft to Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles. The EL-600 Missile system, developed in 2009 and introduced in 2011 has been devellopped exactly for this purpose, while at the same time it's predecessor, the EL-598 "Ypermetron" was outdated by UR military standards and urgently required a replacement.

Features and Armament
The EL-600 is a six-wheel vehicle, and is commandeered by a crew of 5 (driver, passenger and 3 weapon system and adar operators).The engine is the Souvlaki Industries Type 76K10 10-cylinder diesel, which produces 500 hp. The transversal mount of the engine enables the wheel drive, cardan shaft for the waterjet drives and electric bilge pump to be located underneath. Transmission is hydromechanical with a hydrostatic gearbox (6 foward, 1 reverse gears) for the steering gear.

The EL-600 Missile (designated as 98P34) contains an AESA radar seeker and dozens of tiny rocket motors mounted in the forward body for steering of the missile. This allows the missile to drop its uplink to the system and acquire its target itself in the terminal phase of its intercept, which improves the reaction time of the missile against a fast-moving ballistic missile target. The EL-600's missile is accurate enough to select, target, and home in on the warhead portion of an inbound ballistic missile. The active AESA radar also gives the warhead a "hit-to-kill" capability. In Anti-ECM mode the 98P34 works similar to an anti-radiation missile in that it flies a highly lofted trajectory and then locates, homes in on, and destroys the most significant emitter in an area designated by the operator.

The Type 95B5 all altitude detection radar is capable of detecting ballistic missile class targets up to 1000 km away travelling at up to 10000 km/h and cruise missile class targets up to 300 km away. It also employs an electronic beam steering and performs a scan once every three seconds. The Type 76A22 Ladar can detect a missile-sized target flying at an altitude of 60 meters at least 40 km away, at an altitude of 100 meters at least 60 km away, and at high altitude up to 175 km away. In addition the Type 67AS86 target acquisition Ladar can be used which has a maximum detection range of 300 km. The system can differentiate between manned and unmanned aircraft and ballistic re-entry vehicles carrying ordinance.

As a fail safe and somewhat of a passive mode can be attained with the systems Type 12A3 radar warning receiver which is a passive receiver system capable of detecting radar signals in the environment. Composed of antennas spread among the batteries vehicles the Type 12A3 has a range of greater then 250 nautical miles. This allows EL-600 batteries to fire their weaponry while their own radars are in passive mode thus avoiding anti-radiation missile fire. At attitude the 98P34 missile will use its own AESA radar to direct itself to the target.

The Type 95B5 are and its Type 76A22 Ladar are extremely resistant to jamming. The Type 95B5 is low-observable, active-aperture, electronically-scanned array that can track 600 targets in any weather. The Type 95B5 changes frequencies more than 2,000 times per second to reduce the chance of being intercepted. The radar can also focus its emissions to overload enemy sensors and burn out the unprotected electronics of missile systems, giving the EL-600 an electronic-attack capability. The Type 95B5 transmits data at the rate of 600 Megabytes per second while receiving data at 1 gigabyte per second.

Protection against electromagnetic interference and EMP attack is provided by the use of fiber optic cabling and circuitry composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack, the crew area is coated with a conductive coating, and all doors and wiring/tubing pathways through protective shielding is sealed with conductive gaskets as is the vehicle itself. A grounding chain is connected to the rear of the vehicle.

A Type 27 Fire Detector Unit unit attaches on a mast to the rear of a vehicle and uses an array of seven small microphone sensors. The sensors detect and measure both the muzzle blast and the supersonic shock wave from a speeding bullet as it zips through the air above the speed of sound. Each microphone picks up the sound waves at slightly different times. It then uses sophisticated algorithms to compute what direction a bullet is coming from, and how high above the ground and how far away the shooter is, all in less than one second. Users receive simultaneous visual and auditory information on the point of fire on a dash mounted display and integrated speakers. For example, if someone is firing from the rear, the system tells the user "Shot, 6 o'clock", an LED lights up at the 6 o'clock position, and the computer tells the user the shooter's range, elevation, and azimuth.

EL-45 "Pericles" Self-Prepelled Artillery Vehicle
Image


Overview
The Pericles Self-Prepelled Artillery Vehicle, unlike previous artillery platforms in the Eagleland Armed Forces, it is designed to prepare the charge and the round via an automated process before firing. That, plus other features such as advanced electronics and a smaller crew requirement, make the Pericles Self-Prepelled Artillery Vehicle an excellent Artillery Platform.

Background
The Eagleland Armed Forces' SPAV before the introduction of the EL-45 was the M109 SPH. Although an excellent platform, it still required manual loading, making it difficult to load in intense combat conditions. ENAMI's introduction of the EL-45 SPAV in 2009 proved to be a perfect solution for the Eagleland Armed Forces' needs.

Armor and Protection
The EL-45 has a maximum of 24 mm Aluminum Alloy and ceramic armor. Although light, the EL-45 includes Ekrixi Explosive Reactive Armor plates installed on the side of the armor and on the turret, and acts as a fourth layer of armor. ERA armor, such as Ekrixi, use an explosive charge to eliminate (or in most cases, weaken) the threat to the tank. An element of explosive reactive armour consists of a sheet or slab of high explosive sandwiched between two plates, typically metal, called the reactive or dynamic elements. On attack by a penetrating weapon, the explosive detonates, forcibly driving the metal plates apart to damage the penetrator. Against a shaped charge, the projected plates disrupt the metallic jet penetrator, effectively providing a greater path-length of material to be penetrated. Against a long rod penetrator, the projected plates serve to deflect and break up the rod.

The disruption is attributed to two mechanisms. First, the moving plates change the effective velocity and angle of impact of the shaped charge jet, reducing the angle of incidence and increasing the effective jet velocity versus the plate element. Second, since the plates are angled compared to the usual impact direction of shaped charge warheads, as the plates move outwards the impact point on the plate moves over time, requiring the jet to cut through fresh plate material. This second effect significantly increases the effective plate thickness during the impact. The explosion generated by that reaction is enough to weaken or sometimes destroy the threat posed to the vehicle, but nearby infantry is also in danger, as the explosion produces sharpnel, therefore dismounted infantry units are instructed to keep their distance from EL-45's equipped with Ekrixi ERA.

Propulsion, Suspension and Transmission
The engine is the Souvlaki Industries 12-cylinder diesel, which produces 820kw. The transversal mount of the engine enables the wheel drive, cardan shaft for the waterjet drives and electric bilge pump to be located underneath. Transmission is hydromechanical with a hydrostatic gearbox (4 foward, 2 reverse gears) for the steering gear and power take-off for the water jets. The EL-45 includes a Hydropneumatic Suspension system.The Type 97 Auxiliary Power Unit is also installed in the rear right section of the hull, to provide electrical power when stationary, without the high fuel consumption and large infrared signature caused by running the main engine.

Armament and Ammunition
The EL-45 includes a 160mm howitzer, which has fully automated ammunition handling and firing that allows firing of the 48 on-board rounds at rates of up to 12 rounds per minute to ranges in excess of 40km and with long-range ERA ammunition a range of 80km. The EL-45 features a stabilized gun and can fire accurately on the move. The EL-45 has the capability to fire multiple rounds to achieve simultaneous impact on target (MRSI). One vehicle can fire up to 12 rounds to strike a single target at the same time. The digital fire control system calculates separate firing solutions for each of the 12 projectiles. Ammunition types include High Explosive, White Phosphorus, Smoke and Cluster Shells, which disperse sub-munitions in mid air. The EL-45 also includes a ROWUS-operated 30mm autocannon and a 6.3mm caseless coaxial gun.

Crew and Electronics
Additional advancements include autonomous navigation and gun laying system (AGLS) and all main turret functions are controlled by a Turret Control Computer (TCC). Every gun is fitted with a radar Muzzle Velocity Measuring Device. The Type 065 Ballistic Triagulation System can instantly return fire based on the flight path of an incoming round. It is fitted with an auxiliary power unit to eliminate the need to run the main engine to keep the batteries charged while stationary; electrical servos drive the automated elevation, traverse, magazine and loader as well as power for electronics and communications.

The high level of automation means that the howitzer and re-supply vehicle each require only three soldiers to operate it. The gunners can control the entire loading and firing process from the safety of the computerised cockpit under armour and nuclear biological and chemical warfare protection. The Defender Countermeasures system, a grenade discharging system, the SADS active defense system and The Defender Countermeasures and the Type 55 FINDERS Multi-Sensor Target Aquisition System are also present.

Protection against electromagnetic interference and EMP attack is provided by the use of fiber optic cabling and circuitry composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack and the crew area is coated with a conductive coating. A grounding chain is connected to the rear of the vehicle.

Variants
The EL-45 has 2 variants; the EL-45 SPAV and EL-45 RV, which is used for re-supplying EL-45 SPAVs. The resupply vehicle itself can be fully loaded with fuel and 110 rounds of ammunition in less than 60 minutes.

ET-700 Howitzer
Image


Overview
The ET-700 is smaller and 42% lighter, at under 4,100 kg, than the ET-695 it replaces. Most of the weight reduction is due to the use of titanium. The gun crew required is an Operational Minimum of five, compared to a previous size of nine. The ET-700 uses a digital fire-control system similar to that found on self propelled howitzers such as the EL-45 Pericles to provide navigation, pointing and self-location, allowing it to be put into action more quickly than earlier towed and air-transported howitzers.

Background
From 1939 to 2010, the main howitzer of the Eagleland Armed Forces was the 105mm ET-695 Howitzer. Cheap to manufacture, but relatively heavy to move around the battlefield, the ET-695 was considered "the slowest punch" of Eagleland Artillery, when compared to the relatively faster self-prepelled artillery vehicles. From the end of the 16-year Third War of the Realms (1951-1967) onwards, regardless of the Eagleland and it's allies' victory over their opponents, the Eagleland began to rely more on self-prepelled artillery vehicles rather than howtizers. Nevertheless, the ET-695 was still in service in many Eagleland units and on October of 2007, the Ministry of National Defense put forward to ENAMI the contract of providing a newer, lighter platform of artillery that would replace the ET-695. In 2010, the ET-700 was introduced and as of February of 2012, the ET-695 was replaced by it's newer counterpart, after a long service.

Features
The ET-700 in conjunction with the traditional "glass and iron sights/mounts" also uses a digital fire control system called the Digital Gun Management System (DGMS). The ET-700 is also often combined with the new Type 6090-K GPS-guided munition, which allows accurate fire at a range of up to 40 kilometres. This almost doubles the area covered by a single battery to about 5,000 km2. Testing placed 13 of 14 Type 6090-K rounds, fired from up to 24 kilometres, within 10 meters of their target, suggesting a circular error probable of about 5 meters.

Alexander The Great Class Aircraft Carrier
Image


Background
The Alexander The Great Class Aircraft Carrier is one of the latest ENAMI Naval Designs. This Aircraft Carrier is a large-deck, nuclear-powered ship, designed in 2007, with the first ship laucnhed in November 2010. It came up as the need for Aircraft Carriers in the Eagleland War Navy became even more apparent. With a large Exclusive Economic Zone to protect, the Eagleland War Navy requires a large carrier force for both Martime Defense and Force Projection.

Overview of the ship's design
This ship features newly designed and integrated combat systems that eliminates rotating antennas and it also incorporates new integrated combat systems, and advanced nuclear propulsion plant and a new electrical power and distribution system. The Alexander The Great Class Carriers feature additional new technologies including an Electromagnetic Aircraft Launching System (EMALS), an Electromagnetic Aircraft Recovery System (EARS), improved crew habitability, survivability improvements, performance improvements, and new functional arrangements and distributed systems. They also feature a substantially smaller redesigned command "island" (the carrier superstructure) than many aircraft carriers, as well multifunction arrays that replace the forest of antennas that many ships sprout, making the carrier inherently harder to detect and attack. An advanced weapons-information management systems automates the process of weapons movement from magazines to aircraft. The electromagnetic aircraft launching and arresting systems require less wind across the deck for aircraft launch recovery, and significantly accelerates the process of "turning around" combat aircraft and generating high sortie rates.

Ship Construction
All Alexander The Great Class Carriers are manufactured in the modular construction method. This means that whole sections are welded together with plumbing and electrical equipment already fitted, improving efficiency. Using gantry cranes, which can lift 910 tons, the modules are then lifted into the dry dock and welded. In the case of the bow section, these can weigh over 680 tons.

Powerplant
All ships of the class are powered by two Souvlaki Industries Hefaistus Type 655 reactor, which is the nuclear fission reactor of the ship. They are used in pairs. It is a pressurized water reactor (PWR), using enriched uranium-235 fuel to produce 300 MW of power. It's propulsion system is a Combined Nuclear And Steam propulsion system, or CONAS. Complementary to the nuclear component there are two conventional boilers, installed as a backup in case of reactor failure. The reactors are kept in separate compartments. The reactors power four propeller shafts, and can produce a maximum speed of over 30 knots. The reactors produce heat through nuclear fission which heats water. This is then passed through four turbines which are shared by the two reactors. The turbines in turn power the four bronze propellers, each with a diameter of 7.6 meters and a weight of 30 tons. Behind these are the two rudders, which are 8.8 meters high and 6.7 meters long, and each weigh 50 tons.

Armament:
The Alexander the Great Class, despite it's being an aircraft carrier, has enough armament to defend itself and in some cases make attacks on it's own. Apart from it's 40 VLS tubes, the 2 12-tube RAM missile defense systems and 1 30mm CIWS, the Alexander Class includes 4 Type 535 Combined CIWS. The Type 535 includes 2 20mm Cannons and 4 SAM tubes, and operates like most CIWS systems.

Crew Amenities and Facilities
Because the number of crew is reduced compared to other ships of it's class, the ship can have more facilities, and all quarters can be more comfortable. Crewmen still sleep in double decked beds, but these beds have been designed in such way to offer comfort. There is also a gym, a kitchen, a dining room, a living room with entairtainment facilities, a library and a computer room with free internet acess. All these are designed to offer the crew a comfortable stay in the ship. In addition, the ship can house 500 Marines as a Maximum.

Export
Although the carrier is for open sale, its Domestic production rights are extremely limited to the aquisition of states allied to the Eagleland. The cost of a single carrier is 10.000.000.000 NSD, and for the states that are allied to the Eagleland, DPRs are available for 1 trillion NSD.

Konstantinos Palaiologos Class Cruiser
Image

Background
The Konstantinos Palaiologos Class, a 2010 ENAMI design, is the most powerful Surface Warfare Warship offered by ENAMI. Designed after a lack of modern cruisers was evident in the Eagleland War Navy, the Konstantinos Palaiologos was designed with missile warfare in mind, as more and more warships nowadays feild ships with a large number of VLS tubes.

Overview of the ship's design
The Konstantinos Palaiologos Class Cruiser is a state-of-the art Warship, designed for Anti-Surface Warfare, while maintaining some Anti-Submarine Warfare and Anti-Air Capabilities. It's advanced electronics systems and it's wave-piercing tumblehome hull give the ship a reduced radar signature, akin to a fishing boat. The 155mm Gun mounted on the warship, coupled with it's 210 VLS tubes, 2 Side Model 5508 Anti-Submarine Rockets and other weapon systems provide a powerful platform. It's advnaced Sonar 2087, considered by some as the best sonar system on the market, enables advanced Anti-Submarine Warfare Capabilities.

Signature Reduction Measures
The Ship's hull design itself, being a wave-piercing tumblehome hull design, reduces the radar cross-section, as it returns much less energy than a more hard-angled hull form. An additional benefit of this hull design is that it cuts through waves rather than riding over them. The ship's radar signature is more akin to a fishing boat and sound levels are compared to the Los Angeles-class submarine. The composite material deckhouse also has a low radar return. Water sleeting along the sides, along with passive cool air induction in the mack reduces thermal emissions.

Powerplant
The Konstantinos Palaiologos Class is a Nuclear-Powered Cruiser, propelled by a Hefaistus Type 655 reactor, which is the nuclear fission reactor of the ship. They are used in pairs. It is a pressurized water reactor (PWR), using enriched uranium-235 fuel to produce 300 MW of power. It's propulsion system is a Combined Nuclear And Steam propulsion system, or CONAS. Complementary to the nuclear component there are two conventional boilers, installed as a backup in case of reactor failure. Both components are capable of driving two geared steam turbines, generating 89 MW at two propeller shafts.

Electronics
Electronics wise, the Konstantinos Palaiologos Class includes a total ship computing environment infrastructure, serving as the ship's primary LAN and as the hardware-independent platform for all of the ship's software ensembles, automated fire-fighting systems and an automated piping rupture isolation system. It also includes the AN/SPY-5 Multi-Function Radar (MFR) and the Volume Search Radar (VSR), which can track/attack 6000 targets and are capable of detecting ballistic missile class targets up to 1200 km away travelling at up to 10.000 km/h and cruise missile class targets up to 600 km away. It also employs electronic beam steering and performs a scan once every one point five seconds. The Tomb Stone Ladar can detect a missile-sized target flying at an altitude of 60 meters at least 40 km away, at an altitude of 100 meters at least 60 km away, and at high altitude up to 175 km away. The Cruisers of this Class also features the Sonar 2087, which is a Low Frequency Active Sonar (LFAS) and consists of both active and passive sonar arrays.

Armament
The Kontantinos Palaiologos Class Cruiser features an impressive array of weaponry, which, apart from it's Type 155 155mm Cannon, firing at 100 rounds per minute and with a capacity of 500 rounds and a range of 25 thaousand Kilometers, includes 210 VLS tubes. There are 4 Side Model 5508 Anti-Submarine Rocket Launchers, as well as 3 12-tube RAM launchers and 1 20mm Cannon on top of the Helicopter Deck.

Crew Amenities and Facilities
Because the number of crew is reduced compared to other ships of it's class, the ship can have more facilities, and all quarters can be more comfortable. Crewmen still sleep in double decked beds, but these beds have been designed in such way to offer comfort. There is also a gym, a kitchen, a dining room, a living room with entairtainment facilities, a library and a computer room with free internet acess. All these are designed to offer the crew a comfortable stay in the ship.

Lysander Class Destroyer
Image


Background
The Eagleland War Navy is known for it's Anti-Submarine Warfare Capabilities. The Eagleland Navy does Recognise the need for Surface Warfare Destroyers, however the main destroyer provided by LG Defense Systems, the Archer Class, lacked sufficient Anti-Submarine Warfare Capabilities. ENAMI's version of the Archer class destroyer, the Lysander Class, has been introduced in 2010 with the same capabilities as the Archer Class plus enhanced Anti-Submarine Warfare Capability.

Overview of the ship's design
The Lysander Class destroyer is a state-of-the art Warship, designed for Anti-Surface Warfare, Anti-Submarine Warfare and also has some Anti-Air Capabilities.

The turret itself is designed to be stealthy, allowing for the entire length of the barrel to be enclosed within the turret housing when not firing. The Lysander Class also features 2 Side Model 5508 Anti-Submarine Rocket Launchers, as well as a complement of 80 VLS tubes and 12 30mm CIWS Platforms.

Crew Amenities and Facilities
Because the number of crew is reduced compared to other ships of it's class, the ship can have more facilities, and all quarters can be more comfortable. Crewmen still sleep in double decked beds, but these beds have been designed in such way to offer comfort. There is also a gym, a kitchen, a dining room, a living room with entairtainment facilities, a library and a computer room with free internet acess. All these are designed to offer the crew a comfortable stay in the ship.

Agamemnon Class Air Defense Destroyer
Image

Background
The Eagleland War Navy recognises the need for Anti-Air Warfare Destroyers, which are capable of engaging enemy aircraft headed towards the ship. For this purpose, the Agamemnon Class has been introduced in 2010.

Overview of the ship's design
The Agamemnon Class destroyer is a state-of-the art Warship, designed for Anti-Surface Warfare, Anti-Submarine Warfare and also has excellent Anti-Air Capabilities. It's advanced electronics systems and give the ship a reduced radar signature. The 155mm cannon mounted on the warship, coupled with it's 110 VLS tubes, 2 Side Model 5508 Anti-Submarine Rockets and other weapon systems provide a powerful platform. It's advnaced Sonar 2076, considered by some as the best sonar system on the market, enables advanced Anti-Submarine Warfare Capabilities.

Powerplant
The ship is propelled by 2 Souvlaki Industries Type 700 gas turbines producing a total of 78 MW, giving the ship a top speed of 40 knots. The ship also includes 2 Type 755 emergency diesel generators to be used as backup power in case the 2 main turbines malfunction.

Electronics
Electronics wise, the Agamemnon Class includes a total ship computing environment infrastructure, serving as the ship's primary LAN and as the hardware-independent platform for all of the ship's software ensembles, automated fire-fighting systems and an automated piping rupture isolation system. It also includes the AN/SPY-5 Multi-Function Radar (MFR) and the Volume Search Radar (VSR), which can track/attack 6000 targets and are capable of detecting ballistic missile class targets up to 1200 km away travelling at up to 10.000 km/h and cruise missile class targets up to 600 km away. It also employs electronic beam steering and performs a scan once every one point five seconds. The Tomb Stone Ladar can detect a missile-sized target flying at an altitude of 60 meters at least 40 km away, at an altitude of 100 meters at least 60 km away, and at high altitude up to 175 km away. The Agamemnon Class also features the Sonar 2087, which is a Low Frequency Active Sonar (LFAS) and consists of both active and passive sonar arrays. For enhanced AA warfare, the Agamemnon Class includes the SAMPSON radar, which is a multi-function AESA radar which can detect all types of targets out to a distance of 400 km, and is capable of tracking hundreds of targets at any one time.

Armament
The Agamemnon Class Destroyer features an impressive array of weaponry, which includes as a primary weapon it's Type 155 155mm Cannon. It has a rate of fire at 100 rounds per minute and with a capacity of 500 rounds and a range of 25 thaousand Kilometers.

Kolokotronis Class Multipurpose Frigate
Image


Background
The Orthodox Federation of the Eagleland and the Free Republic of the Libertarian Governance are the main suppliers of weapons for all Unified Realm Nations. The Libertarian Governance's LG Defense Systems, however, is the primary supplyier of ships for most UR Navies. However, with a lack of multirole frigates, except a Littoral Combat Ship designed primarily for speed, and with the presence of stealth frigates worldwide, the Eagleland's ENAMI has been contracted by the Eagleland Ministry of Defense, to produce a multirole frigate designed to match Russian and French multirole frigates, and be the first nation in the Unified Realm to provide such frigates. In 2009 ENAMI began constructing the first ship of the Kolokotronis Class, named after Greek Revolutionary Georgios Kolokotronis. In May 2010, the ES Kolokotronis was completed, which is claimed by ENAMI to be the first Multirole Frigate launched in the Unified Realm region.

Overview of the ship's design
The Kolokotronis Class is claimed to be among the most technologically advanced warships of its kind in the world, designed to face all threats from air, sea or land. To meet the current and emerging needs of the worlds navies, ENAMI has designed the frigate around the concept of "innovation, versatility, modularity and evolvability". Despite of the utilisation of sophisticated electronics and advanced weapon systems, the Kolokotronis Class Frigate is operated by a crew of 108, significantly less than previous frigates of the Eagleland armed forces.

The frigate's layout has been designed to provide sufficient size for operational effectiveness, maintainability and sustained upgrades. The layout incorporates increased headroom between decks, deeper and longer engine compartments, and larger equipment pathways for access and maintenance. For quayside maintenance, the frigate is fitted with an aftside door for loading and unloading equipment, load handling equipment and a wide lower deck passage way. The consoles on the integrated bridge are for all main platform functions including navigation, steering and communications. The bridge also allows operators to manage and control all the platform systems, to monitor safety and security, and to co-ordinate other operations.

Ship Construction
The superstructure is made of light alloy and glass-reinforced plastic, which allow a reduction in top weight. This provides adequate but sub-optimal resistance to fire. Vital zones are armoured in Kevlar, and important systems are redundant. The crew is protected against biological, chemical and nuclear environments. The hull has a pronounced angle at the stem, with a short forecastle that integrates directly into the superstructure. The ship's sides have a negative inclination of 10 degrees. The single anchor is located exactly on the stem, into which it is completely recessed. The deck where the seamanship equipment and capstans are installed is internal in order to hide it from radar.

The superstructure is built in one piece and directly integrates into the hull, with only a change in inclination. A platform is located between the main gun and the bridge. The superstructure runs continuously down to the helicopter hangar. The ships feature two masts. The main mast has a pyramidal structure which integrates funnels and supports the antenna of the Salamina military communications satellite system, while the second supports the main radar.

Signature Reduction Measures
The shape of the hull and the superstructures is devised for the optimal reduction of the radar signature. This is achieved with inclined flanks, as few vertical lines as possible, and very clean lines and superstructures: stairs and mooring equipment are internal, and prominent structures are covered by clear surfaces. The radar cross section is equivalent to that of a large fishing boat, which could lead an enemy to underestimate the capabilities of the ship. In case of a direct attack, the small radar signature helps evade enemy missiles and fire control systems. The Kolokotronis Class Frigates are also equipped with jammers that can generate false radar images. Thanks to the adoption of low-power diesel motors and a special heat dissipation system, these ships have a low thermal signature. The usual funnel is replaced with a small sets of pipes, aft of the mast, which cool the exit gas before it is released.

The magnetic signature is reduced by the presence of a demagnetisation belt. The acoustic signature is minimized by mounting the engines on elastic supports, as to transmit as little vibrations to the hull as possible, and by rubber coating on the propellers. The ship is also equipped with the Seferlis active acoustic camouflage system, which generate small bubbles from underneath the hull to confuse sonars.

Powerplant
Image


The ship is prepelled by the Soulvaki Industries Type 2500 Gas Turbine Engine which produces 32 Megawatts of Energy. The Type 2500 utilises a Combined Diesel and Gas propulsion system (CODAG). It consists of diesel engines for cruising and gas turbines that can be switched on for high-speed transits. In most cases the difference of power output from diesel engines alone to diesel and turbine power combined is too large for controllable pitch propellers to limit the rotations so that the diesels can continue to operate without changing the gear ratios of their transmissions. Because of that, special multi-speed gearboxes are installed. Such a propulsion system has a smaller footprint than a diesel-only power plant with the same maximal power output, since smaller engines can be used and the gas turbine and gearbox don't need that much additional space. Still it retains the high fuel efficiency of diesel engines when cruising, allowing greater range and lower fuel costs than with gas turbines alone.

Electronics
The Kolokotronis Class Frigate's primary radar system is the Herakles Radar, devellopped by THALES. HERAKLES is Thales' latest radar designed to be the sole radar on board high-value vessels. Operating in S band and optimized for littoral operations, it provides an effective naval air defence and land operations support capability with optimum acquisition and life cycle costs. The radar simultaneously performs all the functions involved in the establishment of a 3D air and surface picture, missile detection, and in-weapon deployment, which is associated with all types of active or semi-active surface-to-air missiles the ship utilises, features exceptional reliability and extremely high operational availability, key to its role as the ships' primary radar.

The Ship's secondary radars are as follows:
-DRBN34 navigation radar
-DRBN34 landing radar
-MNG 1 radio interceptor
-ARBR 21 radar interceptor
-Radars supporting the Salamina Combat system
-Air/Surface DRBV 15C sentry radar
-Type 87 Fire Control System

Sonar systems include THALES Underwater Systems Type 2050 Bow Sonar and Type 2087 towed sonar. Sonar 2087 is a Low Frequency Active Sonar (LFAS) and consists of both active and passive sonar arrays. Similar capabilities are present with the Type 2050.

Armament
The Kolokotronis Class Frigate's primary weapon is the Type 100 100mm Naval Gun, with a rate of fire of 78 rounds per minute, and a total capacity of 95 rounds. The cannon has a muzzle velocity of 870 m/s, a weight of 22 metric tons and an elevation of 29 degrees per second. The cannon's maximum range is 17.000 Meters. Secondary Armaments include dual 20mm modèle F2 guns mounted on the sides of the ship in which the crew can move. There are 550 rounds of ammunition for each cannon. The ship can also fire MU-90 torpedoes from 8 torpedo tubes from the front of the ship's hull. The ship has a capacity for over 32 torpedoes.

Image

Pictured: Side SYLVER VLS tubes capable of firing AA Missiles.

Missile Armaments include 27 VLS tubes to the front hull and 48 SYLVER VLS tubes (24 on both sides) of the ship. The 27 VLS tubes are large enough to fire Cruise Missiles from these tubes. The side ones, however, are designed to fire Air-to-Air Missiles. There are also 4 side launchers, which can fire Cruise Missiles as well. The ship is also equipped with non-lethal weapons, such as 2 water cannons, laser dazzling weaponry and searchlights, for non-provocative deterrence and defence. Side Model 5508 Anti-Submarine Rockets are also included for Anti-Submarine Warfare.

Crew Amenities and Facilities
Because the number of crew is reduced compared to other ships of it's class, the ship can have more facilities, and all quarters can be more comfortable. Crewmen still sleep in double decked beds, but these beds have been designed in such way to offer comfort. There is also a gym, a kitchen, a dining room, a living room with entairtainment facilities, a library and a computer room with free internet acess. All these are designed to offer the crew a comfortable stay in the ship.

Export
Although the frigate is for open sale, its Domestic production rights are extremely limited to the aquisition of states allied to the Eagleland. The cost of a single frigate is 2.750.000.000 NSD, and for the states that are allied to the Eagleland, DPRs are available for 300 billion NSD.

Themistocles Class Corevette
Image


Background
The Eagleland has the largest Exclusive Economic Zone in the Unified Realm region, which indeed marks the need for a large Naval Force to patrol it and protect it. The Eagleland's Constitution is also a necessity multiplier. Illegal Immigration, Illegal Drug Trafficking and Piracy is not Tolerated. Problematically, Eagleland Coast Guard is sometimes insufficiently large for protecting the country from these threats. For this purpose, plus foreign export, ENAMI has introduced the Themistocles Class Corvette in 2009.

Overview of the ship's design
The Themistocles class is a small, state-of-the art vessel, designed as a "mini" version of the Kolokotronis Class Frigates the Eagleland War Navy Operates. Despite it's light weaponry, this warship features state-of-the art electronics, found at the Kolokotronis Class Frigates. The ship's layout has been designed to provide sufficient size for operational effectiveness, maintainability and sustained upgrades. The layout incorporates increased headroom between decks, deeper and longer engine compartments, and larger equipment pathways for access and maintenance. For quayside maintenance, the frigate is fitted with an aftside door for loading and unloading equipment, load handling equipment and a wide lower deck passage way.

Armament
The Themistocles Class Corvette's primary weapon system is the BAE Mark 110 57mm cannon, which fires at approximately 220 rounds per minute and has a maximum range of 17,000 meters. It also includes an on-mount muzzle velocity radar, a Computer-controlled burst pattern and it is Remotely-operated with gyro-stabilized local control back-up. Secondary Weapons include dual 20mm modèle F2 guns mounted on the sides of the ship in which the crew can move. There are 550 rounds of ammunition for each cannon. The ship can also fire MU-90 torpedoes from 8 torpedo tubes from the front of the ship's hull. The ship has a capacity for over 32 torpedoes. Missile Armaments include 20 VLS tubes to the front hull. These tubes are large enough to fire Tigershark Cruise Missiles. There are also 2 rear launchers, each of which can fire up to 4 Cruise Missiles. The ship is also equipped with non-lethal weapons, such as 2 water cannons, laser dazzling weaponry and searchlights, for non-provocative deterrence and defence. Side Model 5508 Anti-Submarine Rockets are also included for Anti-Submarine Warfare.

Konon Class Amphibious Assault Ship
Image


Background
The Eagleland Recognises the need for both a large Navy and Marine Corps. A close observation of the Eagleland's Geography gives an answer; the Eagleland has more than 200 islands, and to regain one in the event of a war, both a large Marine Corps and a Navy with Amphibious Landing Capabilities are required. ENAMI has, for this purpose, introduced the Konon Class Amphibious Assault ship in 2007.

Overview of the ship's design
The Konon class is a class of three amphibious assault ships, also known as a helicopter carrier, of the Eagleland Navy. Such ships are capable of transporting and deploying 16 helicopters, four landing barges, up to 70 vehicles including up to 20 tanks, and 450 soldiers, as well as maintaining a 69-bed hospital and comfortable personal quarters space. This, while including an amount of weaponry adequate for the ship's defense.

Powerplant
The Konon Class is the only Warship offered by ENAMI to use azimuth thrusters. The thrusters are powered by electricity from five Souvlaki Industries V32 diesel alternators, and can be oriented in any angle. An azimuth thruster is a configuration of ship propellers placed in pods that can be rotated in any horizontal direction, making a rudder unnecessary. These give ships better maneuverability than a fixed propeller and rudder system. This propulsion technology gives the ships significant maneuvering capabilities, as well as freeing up space normally reserved for machinery and propeller shafts.

Electronics
The ship's radars include: AN/SPS-48E three-dimensional air search radar operating at C/D band, AN/APQ-9B surface surveillance and tracking radar operating at I band, AN/SPS-64(V)9 navigation radar operating at I band and two AN/SPS-73 surface search radars operating at I-band.

Crew Amenities and Facilities
Because of the use of the azimuth thrusters, the ship can have more facilities, and all quarters can be more comfortable. Crewmen still sleep in double decked beds, but these beds have been designed in such way to offer comfort. There is also a gym, a kitchen, a dining room, a living room with entairtainment facilities, a library and a computer room with free internet acess. All these are designed to offer the crew a comfortable stay in the ship.

Export
The ship is for open sale, with individual unit prices up to 1,550,000,000 NSD and Domestic Production Rights up to 155,000,000 NSD.

Background
The Eagleland Recognises the need for both a large Navy and Marine Corps. A close observation of the Eagleland's Geography gives an answer; the Eagleland has more than 200 islands, and to regain one in the event of a war, both a large Marine Corps and a Navy with Amphibious Landing Capabilities are required. ENAMI has, for this purpose, introduced the Agisilaos Class Amphibious Transport Dock warship in 2007.

Overview of the ship's design
The ship is constructed from steel and designed to minimise radar cross section. Enhanced survivability features include improved fragmentation and nuclear blast protection and shock-hardened structure. Automation and integration of systems has enabled a significant reduction in crew, projected to be 361. The ship provides three vehicle decks of 25,402ft² and two cargo holds with 25,548ft³ for bulk cargo and ammunition magazines in addition to 1,234m³ for cargo fuel. Accommodation is provided for two LCAC (landing craft air cushioned), 700 troops and 14 new AAVs.

Powerplant
The ship is powered by four Souvlaki Industries 2.5 STC diesel engines developing 10,400hp each. A new high-power "low-drag" propeller hub design provides improved propeller efficiency. The ship's electrical power is provided by five 2,500kW Souvlaki Industies ship service diesel generators (SSDG), with self-cleaning strainers and filters and electric pumps. Seven 200t York air-conditioning units are fitted for cooling of systems and habitation. The ship auxiliary systems are all electric, including electric heating, electric water heaters and a 72,000gpd reverse osmosis water-generating plant.

Electronics
The ship's radars include: AN/SPS-48E three-dimensional air search radar operating at C/D band, AN/APQ-9B surface surveillance and tracking radar operating at I band, AN/SPS-64(V)9 navigation radar operating at I band and two AN/SPS-73 surface search radars operating at I-band.

Armament
There are 2 12-tube Rolling Airframe Missile Defense Systems on the ship. The ship is also equipped with two Mk46 mod 1 30mm guns for close-in surface self-defence. The Mk46 is a dual-axis stabilised chain gun with a firing rate of up to 250 rounds a minute. The fire director includes a thermal imager, low-light TV camera and laser rangefinder, with a closed-loop tracking system. The gun can be operated locally at the gun turret or remotely in the combat information centre. Additional armament includes two Mk26 Mod 18 50-calibre machine guns.

Artemis Class Submarine
Image


Background
Submarines are still a threat in Modern Naval Warfare. As Technology for Warships advances, so does for Submarines. ENAMI recognises the need for quality submarines, and has introduced the Artemis and Aries Class Submarines in 2009. The Artemis Class is smaller and is diesel-powered and is much stealthier than it's Nuclear powered "brother", the Aries Class.

Signature Reduction Measures
A hull shape, which has been further optimised for hydrodynamic and stealth characteristics, and a low-noise propeller combine to decrease the submarine's acoustic signature. The fact that the submarine is diesel powered is an advantage over Nulcear-powered ones, in that the former produce a smaller heat signature than the latter. The sub's body is made of non-magnetic steel, to counter the threat of magnetic naval mines.

Powerplant
The propulsion system combines a conventional system consisting of a diesel generator with a lead acid battery, and an air-independent propulsion (AIP) system, used for silent slow cruising, with a fuel cell equipped with oxygen and hydrogen storage. The system consists of nine PEM (polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cells, providing between 30kW and 50kW each. For higher speeds, connection is made to the high-performance lead acid battery. An Souvlaki Industries 16V-396 diesel engine powers the generator for charging the battery installed on the lower of the two decks at the forward section of the submarine. The diesel generator plant is mounted on a swinging deck platform with double elastic mounts for noise and vibration isolation. The propeller motor is directly coupled to the seven-bladed screwback propeller.

Armament
There are six torpedo tubes in two groups of three. It is equipped with a water ram expulsion system for torpedo launch. The primary weapon system includes the Type 234 Torpedo, which is wire-guided so as to ensure guidance, avoiding posible decoys at a maximum range of 65 Kilometers. It is also capable of operating without wire guidance and uses either or both active and passive homing (passive homing range is reduced to 40 km). The submarine can also fire cruise missiles from these tubes, as well as deploy Special Operations Underwater Craft.

Electronics
The submarine's Primary Sonar System is the Soar 2076, which comprises an integrated suite of active and passive sonar systems including bow, fin, flank and towed arrays. It has 13,000 hydrophones, and the processing power of the system is said to be equivalent to 60,000 home PCs.Known components include :

- Type 2077 Parian obstacle avoidance sonar
- Type 2081 environmental monitor
- Type 2094 oceanographic sonar
- Type 2079 active-passive bow sonar
- Type 2078 fire control bow element
- Type 2065 towed array
- Flank array

Other electronics include: The active high-frequency mine detection sonar is the Mixalolikos Electronics MOA 3070. The search periscope is the Type 114 with optical rangefinder, thermal imager and global positioning system. The Type 115 attack periscope is equipped with laser rangefinder. The integrated sensor underwater system ISUS 90, from Mixalolikos Electronics, integrates all sensors, command and control functions on board the submarine. The sensor suite of the U214 submarine consists of the sonar systems, an attack periscope and an optronic mast. The submarine's electronic support measures system and global positioning system sensors are also installed on the optronic mast. The Artemis Class is equipped with a highly integrated command and weapons control system which interfaces with sensors, weapons and navigation system. The system is based on a high-performance databus and a distributed computer system, the basic command and weapons control system (basic CWCS) supplied by Mixalolikos Electronics under the trade name MSI-90U.

Background
Submarines are still a threat in Modern Naval Warfare. As Technology for Warships advances, so does for Submarines. ENAMI recognises the need for quality submarines, and has introduced the Artemis and Aries Class Submarines in 2009. The Aries Class is larger but is tougher than it's Diesel powered "brother", the Artemis Class.

Powerplant
The nuclear power will be provided by the Souvlaki Industries Poseidonas pressurised water reactor. The long-life core fitted on the the Poseidonas reactor means that refuelling will not be necessary in the service life of the submarine. The other main items of machinery are two Souvlaki Industries turbines, and a single shaft with a pump jet propulsor, consisting of moving rotor blades within a fixed duct. There are two diesel alternators, one emergency drive motor and one auxiliary retractable propeller.

Armament
There are eight torpedo tubes in two groups of four. It is equipped with a water ram expulsion system for torpedo launch.

ΑΕΡΟΠΛΑΝΑ

EA-5 "Icarus" Air Superiority Fighter
Image


Overview
The EA-5 Icarus is a single-seat, twin-engine, low observability multirole fighter, which can perform close air support, tactical bombing, and air defense missions. The aircraft blends supercruise speed, super-agility, low observability and sensor fusion into a single air dominance platform. It is capable of Mach 1.88 with a maximum service ceiling of 21,400 meters and a 9g capability. The EA-5 is highly maneuverable, at both supersonic and subsonic speeds. It is extremely departure-resistant, enabling it to remain controllable at extreme pilot inputs. It's thrust vectoring nozzles allow the aircraft to turn tightly, and perform extremely high alpha (angle of attack) maneuvers such as the Herbst maneuver, Pugachev's Cobra, and the Kulbit, though the Herbst is more useful in combat. The EA-5 is also capable of maintaining a constant angle of attack of over 60°, yet still having some control of roll.

Design
The EA-5's main characteristic is it's wing design, being a forward-swept wing. A substantial part of the lift generated by the forward-swept wing occurs at the inner portion of the wingspan. The lift is not restricted by wingtip stall. The ailerons - the wing's control surfaces - remain effective at the highest angles of attack, and controllability of the aircraft is retained even in the event of airflow separating from the remainder of the wings' surface. The wing panels are constructed of nearly 90% composites reinforced with carbon nanotube doped carbon fiber reinforced plastic. The forward-swept midwing has a low aspect ratio, which contributes to speed and maneuverability. The leading-edge root extensions blend smoothly to the wing panels, which are fitted with deflectable slats on the leading edge; flaps and ailerons on the trailing edge.

The downside of such a wing design is that it produces strong rotational forces that try to twist the wings off, especially at high speeds. This twisting necessitates the use of a large amount of composites in order to increase the strength and durability of the wing. The thrust vectoring of ±20° at in pitch and 5° yaw will greatly support the agility gained by the forward-swept-wings. The EA-5 has extremely high agility at subsonic speeds, enabling the aircraft to alter its angle of attack and its flight path very quickly while retaining maneuverability in supersonic flight. Maximum turn rates, and the upper and lower limits on airspeed for weapon launch, are important criteria in terms of combat superiority. The EA-5 has very high levels of maneuverability with maintained stability and controllability at extreme angles of attack. Maximum turn rates are important in close combat and also at medium and long range, when the mission may involve engaging consecutive targets in different sectors of the airspace.

The forward-swept wing provides a number of advantages:
- Higher lift-to-drag ratio
- Higher capacity in dogfight maneuvers
- Higher range at subsonic speed
- Improved stall resistance and anti-spin characteristics
- Improved stability at high angles of attack
- A lower minimum flight speed
- A shorter take-off and landing distance

The EA-5 has a low radar signature due to a combination of factors, including special shaping techniques that include double curvature surfaces, the use of radar absorbent material, and attention to detail such as hinges and pilot helmets that could provide a radar return. In addition, it has been designed to disguise its infrared emissions to make it harder to detect by infrared homing ("heat seeking") surface-to-air or air-to-air missiles. For example, new ceramic-matrix RAM is utilized on the engine exhaust nozzles to reduce radar and IR signatures. Additionally, a complicated series of paints and coatings are used to meet both RCS and infra-red suppression requirements. A new type of paint, or topcoat, increases the aircraft’s stealthiness by reducing its vulnerability to infrared threats. The topcoat protects the aircraft against a broad range of wavelengths and uses metal oxides for optimal radar cross section compatibility.

The EA-5 cockpit is a glass cockpit design without any traditional analog flight instruments. The leading features of the EA-5 cockpit include simple and rapid start-up, highly developed HMI, light helmet, large anthropometric accommodation and highly integrated warning system. Other main features include the large single-piece canopy, side stick and improved life support systems.

Avionics
Avionics include the AN/APG-7 AESA "lookdown, shoot down" radar, designed by Mixaloliakos Electronics is augmented by the Electro-Optical Targeting System (EOTS) mounted under the nose of the aircraft. The AN/APG-7 provides positive target identification, autonomous tracking of all targets in range, coordinate generation, and precise weapons guidance from extended standoff ranges as great as 200 miles. It is designed for air superiority and strike operations and features a low-observable, active-aperture, electronically-scanned array that can track multiple targets in any weather. The AN/APG-7 changes frequencies more than 2,000 times per second to reduce the chance of being intercepted. The radar can also use complicated search patterns that reduce the chance of detection. The radar can also focus its emissions to overload enemy sensors, giving the aircraft an electronic-attack capability. The AN/APG-7 transmits data at the rate of 600 Megabit per second while receiving data at 1 gigabit per second. This is the Valkyrie's primary connection to the combat network system.

Three Mixaloliakos Electronics Common Integrated Processing Units (CIPU)s are the “brains” of the EA-5's avionics. Each CIPU can process 13.1 billion instructions per second and has 1 gigabyte of memory. Each CIPU, which is the size of an oversized bread box, supports all signal and data processing for all sensors and mission avionics. Additionally, information can be gathered from the radar and other onboard and offboard systems, filtered by the CIPU, and offered in easy-to-digest ways on several cockpit displays, enabling the pilot to remain on top of complicated situations. The avionics include the AN/ALR-9 radar warning receiver which is a passive receiver system capable of detecting the radar signals in the environment. The AN/ALR-9 is composed of more than 30 antennas smoothly blended into the wings and fuselage that provide all around coverage plus azimuth and elevation information. The AN/ALR-9 has been demonstrated detecting radars at ranges as long as 400 nautical miles and enables the EA-5 to limit its own radar emission to preserve its stealth. As a target approaches, the receiver can cue the AN/APG-7 radar to track the target with a narrow beam, which can be as focused down to 1° by 1° in azimuth and elevation.

The Electronic Optical Targeting System (EOTS) includes a laser designator and tracker (60,000' attitude) for guiding laser-guided bombs, cryogenically cooled FLIR receiver and CCD television cameras mounted under the nose of the aircraft. Eight additional passive infrared sensors are distributed over the aircraft as part of Mixaloliakos Electronics' AN/AAQ-7 distributed aperture system (DAS), which acts as a missile warning system, reports missile launch locations, detects and tracks approaching aircraft spherically around the EA-5, and replaces traditional night vision goggles for night operations and navigation. All DAS functions are performed simultaneously, in every direction, at all times. Sensor fusion combines data from all onboard and offboard sensors into a common view to prevent the pilot from being overwhelmed. Three multi-function heads down displays are the center pieces of the glass cockpit. The Symmetriad AHG-1 helmet features the latest avionics systems, including a full projected helmet-mounted display, active noise cancellation, and a filtered microphone to improve the work of voice control systems mounted display system replaces the conventional heads up display.

The DVI system by Mixaloliakos Electronics is a speaker-dependent system that provides the pilot command and control of non-critical cockpit functions, to reduce pilot workload, improve aircraft safety, and expand mission capabilities. Confirmation of voice commands is either visual or aural. Emergency escape is by a Symmetriad Laertes IV Advanced Ejection Seat. Pilots wear Symmetriad AMS-4 g-suits with built-in air management and health monitoring systems. The EA-5 uses combined radio frequency and infrared (SAIRST) situational awareness to track all nearby aircraft continually with the pilot's helmet-mounted display system (HMDS) to display and select targets. This gives the EA-5 the ability to use High Off-Boresight (HOBS) weapons to eliminate threats. The EA-5 uses fibre optic cabling and circuitry is composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) for protection against electromagnetic interference or EMP attack where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack, the cockpit is coated with a conductive coating, and all doors and wiring/tubing pathways through protective shielding is sealed with conductive gaskets. Countermeasures include the Mixaloliakos Electronics Type 977 Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radars which can act as an ECM device to track, locate and eventually jam enemy radar. The electronic attack capability is developed enough so that an EA-5 can burn out unshielded electronics. 60 flares and 60 chaff are carried in two side mounted dispensers.

Armament
Armaments include an internal 20 mm Type 2000 six-barreled, air-cooled, electrically fired Gatling-style cannon, which fires 20 mm rounds at 6,600 rounds per minute in starboard wing root with 500 rounds of ammunition, and an internal bomb bay for up to 8 missiles. At the expense of being more detectable by radar, many more missiles, bombs and fuel tanks can be attached on four wing pylons and two near wingtip positions.

Engine
The EA-5 Icarus is powered by two Souvlaki Industries Type 505 25 thrust vectoring afterburning engines. Each Type 505 engine produces 105.78 kN of dry thrust and 155 kN of thrust with afterburner. The 3D thrust vectoring gives the EA-5 higher maneuverability with each nozzle capable of ±20° in the pitch and 5° yaw axis.

EA-20 "Prometheus" Transport Aircraft
Image


Overview
The EA-20 Prometheus is a four-engine Turboprop Military Transport Aircraft, which can perform troop, medical evacuation, and cargo transportation. The EA-20 Prometheus also includes the EA-20M (M for "Machi", Greek for "Battle") variant, which is armed with a variety of weapons and equipped with specialized avionics for close air support, air interdiction, air missions, bombing raids, and force protection. Close air support roles include supporting ground troops, escorting convoys, and flying urban operations, as well as the EA-20A (A for "Anefodiasmos", Greek for "Refueling").

Design
The EA-20 will increase the airlift capacity and range compared with the aircraft it was originally set to replace for the Eagleland Airforce. The cargo box is 17.71 m long excluding ramp, 4.00 m wide, and 3.85 m high. The height is 4.00 m aft of the wing and the ramp is 5.40 m long. The EA-20 will operate in many configurations including cargo transport, troop transport, Medical evacuation and electronic surveillance. The aircraft is intended for use on short, soft landing strips and for long-range, cargo transport flights. The cockpit features a fly-by-wire flight control system with sidestick controllers and flight envelope protection. The EA-20 also has a full glass cockpit, meaning that all information accessed through large colour screens. The EA-20's wings are primarily carbon fibre reinforced plastic.

Avionics
The aircraft's independent navigation system comprises an inertial reference system (IRS) integrated with a global positioning system (GPS). The weather and navigation radar is the AN/APN-241E, which incorporates windshear measurement and ground mapping capability. The radio navigation suite includes a pair of instrument landing systems, Radio ranging (VOR), radio distance measuring equipment (DME), air traffic control (ATC) transponders, automatic direction finders (ADF) and a tactical air navigation unit (TACAN).

The EA-20M version of the aircraft incorporates side-firing weapons integrated with sophisticated sensors, navigation, and fire control systems to provide precision firepower or area-saturation fire with its varied armament. The EA-20M can spend long periods flying over their target area at night and in adverse weather. The sensor suite consists of a television sensor, infrared sensor, and radar. These sensors allow the gunship to visually or electronically identify friendly ground forces and targets in most weather conditions. It is equipped with the AN/APQ-180, a synthetic aperture radar for long-range target detection and identification. The gunship's navigational devices include inertial navigation systems and a Global Positioning System. The EA-20M uses fibre optic cabling and circuitry is composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) for protection against electromagnetic interference or EMP attack where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack, the cockpit is coated with a conductive coating, and all doors and wiring/tubing pathways through protective shielding is sealed with conductive gaskets.

Engine
The eight-bladed Scimitar propeller is made from a woven composite material. The aircraft is powered by four Souvlaki Industries Type 4000 engines rated at 8,250 kW each. One of the few propeller powered aircraft with swept wings, the turboprops provide an efficient cruise speed of 780 km/h (480 mph). The propellers on each wing of the EA-20 turn in opposite directions, with the tips of the propellers advancing from above towards the midpoint between the two engines. This is in contrast to the overwhelming majority of multi-engine propeller driven aircraft where all propellers on the same wing turn in the same direction. The counter-rotation is achieved by the use of a gearbox fitted to two of the engines, and only the propeller turns the opposite direction; all four engines are identical and turn in the same direction which eliminates the need to have two different "handed" engines on stock for the same aircraft, which simplifies maintenance and supply costs. This configuration, dubbed DBE (Down Between Engines), allows the aircraft to produce more lift and lessens the torque and prop wash on each wing. It also reduces yaw in the event of an outboard engine failure.

Variants
The EA-20M includes a Type-08A 160mm Cannon, 2 30mm Type 7000 Cannons (mounted side by side) and 1 25mm Type 7500 Gatling Gun, with a Rate of fire of 750 and 2.000, for the Type 7000 and 7500 accordingly. During an attack, the aircraft performs a pylon turn over the target area, allowing it to bring fire on a target for longer periods than conventional attack aircraft.

The EA-20A has the ability to refuel a range of aircraft and helicopters within two hours. The Type 908E wing pod drogue system provides a fuel flow of up to 1,200kg/min for each pod. The centreline pallet-mounted hose drum unit fitted in the rear cargo bay also provides a fuel flow of 1,800kg/min. In addition, up to two cargo bay fuel tanks (CBT), which connect directly to the EA-20A's fuel management system, can be fitted. Total fuel capacity is 46.7t or 58t with the CBTs.

EA-85 "Athena" UCAV
Image

Overview
The EA-85 "Athena" UCAV is a pilotless, single-engine, stealth-capable unmanned vehicle, that can autonomously penetrate deeply into enemy territory to attack enemy targets perform surveillance, and suppress enemy air defenses. The system's AI system, dubbed IKAROS IV, can communicate, allocate resources and conduct combat with a team of up to 100 UCAVs. Maximum speed is Mach 1.3.

Design
The EA-85's stealth characteristics give it the ability to penetrate enemy anti-aircraft defenses so as to attack its most heavily defended targets. It comes from a combination of reduced acoustic, infrared, visual and radar signatures, making it difficult for opposition defenses to detect, track and engage the aircraft. The EA-85's composite materials, special coatings and flying wing design, which reduces the number of leading edges, contribute to its stealth characteristics. It has a radar signature of about 0.1 m². Each UCAV requires a climate-controlled hangar large enough for its wingspan to protect the operational integrity of its sophisticated radar absorbent material and coatings. The engines are buried within the wing to conceal the induction fans and hide their exhaust.

Avionics
The EA-85 is equipped with the AN/APG-5L AESA "look down, shoot down" radar augmented by the Type 5600 Sharpshooter Targeting System mounted under the nose of the aircraft to provide positive target identification, autonomous tracking of 16 targets in range, coordinate generation, and precise weapons guidance. Sharpshooter includes a laser designator and tracker for guiding laser-guided bombs. The Aircraft Includes a cryogenically cooled FLIR receiver. The EA-85 uses fibre optic cabling and circuitry is composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) for protection against electromagnetic interference or EMP attack where possible.

EH-90 "Hefaistus" Attack Helicopter
Image


Overview
The EH-90 Hefaistus is a twin-engine attack helicopter with reverse-tricycle landing gear, and a tandem cockpit for a crew of two. Its incorporated stealth features to avoid detection, such as retractable weapon stations and main gun, and stealth faceting and radar absorbent materials. It is designed primarily for anti-tank missions, although it has a secondary air-to-air capability as well.

Design
The body of the EH-90 is made from 80% carbon fiber reinforced polymer and kevlar, 11% aluminium, and 6% titanium. The rotors are made from fiber-plastic able to withstand combat damage and bird strikes, and are integrated inside the rear part of the helicopter, for additional. Protection against lightning and electromagnetic pulse is ensured by embedded copper/bronze grid and copper bonding foil. The stepped tandem cockpit houses two aviators - the gunner in front and the pilot in the back - as in the conventional layout of most attack helicopters. The flight control of both aviators serves to back each other up, and the pilot, who is also the team leader of the aircrew, may override the gunner’s commands.

The bottom and sides of the cockpit are protected by composite armor, and so are the engines and the fuel tank located in the middle of the fuselage. The canopy of the cockpit is specially treated to prevent glare from the sun, and, as an additional option, a tanned version is also available for camouflage purposes. The bullet-proof glass of the canopy may be as thick as 38 millimeters, and is able to withstand direct hits from shrapnel and up to 12.7mm rounds. The helicopter utilizes the Type 5560 Heat Supression System to move the engine's heat signature to a point above and behind the helicopter. Utilizing aerodynamic shaping the aircraft concentrates engine heat signature up and behind the helicopter as well. The aircraft also carries flare and chaff dispensers.

Avionics
The EH-90 has 'fly-by-wire' all electric flight controls. This full authority quadruplex system increases the manoeuvrability of the aircraft while decreasing weight. The Type 3355 Target Acquisition and Designation System (TADS) contains stabilized electro-optical sensors, a laser rangefinder and laser target designator. The TADS assembly can rotate +/- 120 degrees in azimuth, +30/-60 degrees in elevation and can move independently of the Type 7200 Pilot Night Vision System (PNVS). The movements of TADS can be 'slaved' to the head movements of the helicopter crew to point where they are looking. This allows images from TADS to be projected onto the crew helmet-mounted optical sights, overlaid upon their view of the cockpit and battle space. TADS contains a thermal imaging infrared camera, a full color television camera and a directional laser microphone.

The AN/APG-18 millimeter-wave Fire Control Radar (FCR) target acquisition system as well as the Radar Frequency Interferometer (RFI) are housed above the rotor. The elevated position of the radome allows detection and (arcing) missile engagement of targets even when the helicopter itself is concealed by an obstacle. The RFI has a highly sensitive 360 degree field of view and integration with the aircraft survivability equipment. Mounted above the TADS, the Type 7250 Pilot Night Vision System (PNVS) contains an infrared camera slaved to the head movements of the pilot. It can rotate +/- 90 degrees in azimuth and +20/-45 degrees in elevation and has a high rate of movement (120° per second) so as to accurately match the head movements of the pilot.

The EH-90 uses fibre optic cabling and circuitry is composed of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) for protection against electromagnetic interference or EMP attack where possible. Additional protections are provided by utilization of antennas and power connections with surge protectors designed specifically to defend against EMP attack, the cockpit is coated with a conductive coating, and all doors and wiring/tubing pathways through protective shielding is sealed with conductive gaskets.

Armament
The EH-90 is armed with a Type 5700 30mm Automatic Electric Cannon firing depleted uranium armor piercing rounds at the rate of 10,800 rounds per minute that can be slaved to the gunner's Helmet mounted display, fixed to a locked forward firing position, or controlled via the TADS. The EH-90 carries a range of external stores on its retractable weapon stations, typically a mixture of 8 Anti-Tank Missiles, 2 rocket pods each carrying 35 50mm unguided rockets, and 2 short range Air-to-Air Missiles.

Engine
The EH-90 is powered by two Souvlaki Industries Type 550 engines, each with a takeoff power of 958 kW. The Type 5450 Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) of the EH-90 is centered on a brushless DC electric motor, which is characterized by its low voltage, high power, high rpm, and a stable current. In contrast to previous helicopter designs, the integrated APU also provides power to onboard avionics for EH-90.

EH-50 "Minotauros" Transport Helicopter
Image

Overview
The EH-50 Minotauros is a medium-lift helicopter, designed for Transportation, Combat Search And Rescue, Cargo Transportation, Anti-Submarine Warfare, Anti-Surface Ship Warfare, Anti-Air Warfare, Vertical Replenishment and Casualty Evacuation Missions. It has a greater carrying capacity than the EH-72.

Design
The EH-50 makes extensive use of composite materials. The modular aluminium-lithium alloy fuselage structure is highly resistant to damage, with multiple primary and secondary load paths. Active vibration control of the structural response (ACSR) uses a vibration-canceling technique to reduce the stress on the airframe. The EL-50 is rated to operate in temperatures ranging from −40 to +50 °C. High flotation tyres permit operation from soft or rough terrain.

The main rotor blades are a derivative of the BERP rotor blade design, which improves the aerodynamic efficiency at the blade tips, as well as reducing the blade's noise signature. The cockpit is fitted with armoured seats for the crew, and can withstand an impact velocity of over 10 m/s. The pilot's instrument displays include six full colour high-definition screens and an optional mission display. The helicopter utilizes the Type 5560 Heat Supression System to move the engine's heat signature to a point above and behind the helicopter. Utilizing aerodynamic shaping the aircraft concentrates engine heat signature up and behind the helicopter as well. The aircraft also carries flare and chaff dispensers.

Avionics

Type 267 Short-to-Medium Range Air-To-Air Missile
Image


Details
The Type 267 Missile is a short-to-medium range, air-to-air, active radar-guided missile system. It comes in 2 variants: the standard version, with a Solid fuel rocket motor and a range of 40 to 80 kilometers, and the Type 267 E ("Emveleia", Greek for "Range"), with an air-breathing ramjet and a range varying from 60 to 160 kilometers, essentially becoming an effective Beyond-Visual-Range Missile.

The aerodynamics are novel, combining vestigial cruciform wings with tail control surfaces of a lattice configuration. Each surface consists of a metal frame containing a blade-like grid assembly which combines a greater control area, and thus lifting force, with reduced weight and size. These surfaces require less powerful actuators than conventional fins, and have a lower RCS. The flow separation which occurs at high angles of attack enhances its turning ability, giving the missile a maximum turn rate of up to 150º per second.

The missile uses a multi-function doppler-monopulse active radar seeker developed. The radar features two modes of operation, over short distances, the missile will launch in an active "fire and forget" mode. Over longer distances the missile is controlled by an inertial auto pilot with occasional encoded data link updates from the launch aircraft's radar on changes in spatial position or G of the target. As the missile comes within 20 km of its target, the missile switches to its active radar mode. The host radar system maintains computed target information in case the target breaks the missile's lock-on.

All Type 267 missiles use Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) circuitry while antenna and power supply wiring make use of surge protectors, all designed to defend the missile against an EMP attack. The launch unit, the DAU and the missiles use fiber optic cabling wherever possible and are sealed with conductive gaskets.

Type 268 Long-Range Air-To-Air Missile
Image


Details
The Type 268 Missile is a long range, air-to-air missile system, designed to engage targets at very long ranges, usually AWACS or C4STAR aircraft.

The Missile uses an active radar target tracking, a proportional navigation guidance, and an active Radio Frequency (RF) target detection coupled with an active LADAR seeker. It employs active, semi-active, and inertial navigational methods of guidance to provide an autonomous launch and leave capability against single and multiple targets in all environments. At the appropriate time, the missile’s active LADAR seeker autonomously searches for and locks onto the target. The missile is at that moment fully autonomous, making its own decisions to home in on the target, despite any evasive maneuvers, decoys or sophisticated electronic countermeasures.

All Type 267 missiles use Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) circuitry while antenna and power supply wiring make use of surge protectors, all designed to defend the missile against an EMP attack. The launch unit, the DAU and the missiles use fiber optic cabling wherever possible and are sealed with conductive gaskets.

Type 270 Air-To-Ground Missile
Image


Details
The Type 270 missile is an air-launched, semi-autonomous anti-tank missile, intended for "fire and forget" attacks on mass formations of enemy armour, using a millimeter wave (mmW) seeker to ensure accuracy even against moving targets.

The missile has a Tandem Shaped Charge (TSC) warhead that employs a smaller initial charge, designed to initiate reactive armor, followed by a larger, more destructive charge, designed to penetrate and defeat the base armour. Therefore, the Tandem Shaped charge warhead of the missile is effective against modern armour, whilst the small blast area minimises collateral damage. Three missiles are carried on a launcher that occupies a single weapon station, allowing a single aircraft to carry many missiles.

In addition to the semi-autonomous ability to decide its own targets, the missile has the capacity to determine where on a target to best impact causing the most damage or resulting in elimination of the target. The missile's advanced sensor package includes its extremely high frequency millimeter wave radar, which allows the weapon to image the target and hence choose a target location. The bandwidth of the MMW radar also makes it less susceptible to inclement weather.

All Type 270 missiles use Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) circuitry while antenna and power supply wiring make use of surge protectors, all designed to defend the missile against an EMP attack. The launch unit, the DAU and the missiles use fiber optic cabling wherever possible and are sealed with conductive gaskets.

Type 290 Small Diameter Guided Bomb
Image


Details
The Type 290 Small Diameter Guided Bomb is a 93 kg bomb that can identify and strike mobile targets from standoff distances in all weather conditions, whilst destroying it with a minimal amount of collateral damage. It bomb uses a GPS guidance system to guide itself into the general vicinity of a moving target during the initial search phase, with any necessary course correction updates provided using a UHF data link. The bomb has three modes of target acquisition: millimeter-wave radar, uncooled imaging infrared, and semi-active laser. The weapon is capable of fusing the information from the sensors to classify the target and can prioritize certain types of targets as desired when used in semi-autonomous mode. The shaped charge warhead in the bomb has both blast and fragmentation effects which makes it effective against infantry and other soft targets, armor (including MBTs), unhardened structures and buildings as well as patrol craft sized boats. The small size of the bomb allows a single strike aircraft to carry more of the munitions than is possible utilizing most bomb units.

Type 295 Large Diameter Guided Bomb
Image


Details
The Type 295 Large Diameter Guided Bomb is a 253 Kilogram Bomb, which is guided by an integrated inertial guidance system coupled to a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver that effectively grant the bomb the capability to guide itself on target. The Bomb comes in 3 variants; The 230 Kg, the 450 Kg and 900 Kg variants. The Type 295 is a stand alone weapon system, which in essence is a Precision-Guided Munition. The key components of the system consist of a tail section with aerodynamic control surfaces, a (body) strake kit, and a combined inertial guidance system and GPS guidance control unit.

Guidance is facilitated through a tail control system and the above-mentioned GPS-aided inertial navigation system (INS). The navigation system is initialized by transfer alignment from the aircraft that provides position and velocity vectors from the aircraft systems. Once released from the aircraft, the bomb autonomously navigates to the designated target coordinates. Target coordinates can be loaded into the aircraft before takeoff, manually altered by the aircrew in flight prior to weapon release, or entered by a datalink from onboard targeting equipment.

Type 300 Cruise Missile
Image


Details
The Type 300 an air-launched stand-off and cruise missile, with a turbo jet engine that allows the ability to loiter in order to enable it to target well-hidden threats, as well as attack moving targets, making it ideal in destroying SAM threats. It has a range of 250 km, and can destroy targets both on sea and on land. An autopilot onboard as well as an INS/GPS navigation system allows the missile to perform its mission autonomously; a data link enables intervention and target validation.

Due to it's network centric design the weapon can utilize other platform and sensor information to identify, track and strike a target and receives constant updating of targeting information. During flight the missile updates its targeting database constantly through encrypted network link. A wide range of targeting information can be entered into the missiles strike profile database. This includes scans of the target, vulnerable areas, areas of least resistance (like flying into windows or doors), air defense systems in place and steps to defeat them, secondary targets. which can be identified and prioritized by type or location. The missile can be directed to any of 15 pre-programmed alternate targets autonomously through parameters assigned to the strike profile or by direction over two way combat network link.

Both the surface launched and air launched versions of the weapon use a detachable booster rocket. The rocket varies in size and burn duration for each application. Submarine launched missiles are fired from VLS tubes using a buoyant launch capsule. The missile glides to the surface where the capsule lid blows and the missile's booster ignites launching the missile. The capsule is launched by pressure.

Targeting information is dumped into the missile. This is can be very detailed and can include not only current GPS coordinates along with target speed and direction of travel but can include, rules of engagement, scanned pictures of the target, target type, radar, laser or IR readings. Secondary targets can be identified and even prioritized by type or location. This information is loaded into an onboard targeting database and is constantly updated over the missile’s combat network link.

The missile then computes an intercept course for the target and once launched proceeds at hypersonic speed to the target area using inertial and GPS guidance. Terminal phase guidance includes a millimeter wave AESA radar which initially acquires the target. The radar has an elevation of +/- 120° and an azimuth of +/- 120°/120°. The radar features mapping capability using synthetic aperture radar (SAR), real beam and doppler beam narrowing modes with very high resolutions. The radar can detect and track with measurement of range and speed both moving and static ground and naval targets.

An imaging infrared (IIR) seeker located in a conformal low RCS pod at the bottom of the radar system scans the area for its target while comparing its data to the information in its strike profile database and off the combat network. The C - QWIP Focal Plane Array has elevation of +/- 12° and an azimuth of +/- 15°. The use of QWIP (Quantum Well Imaging Photodetector) allows a single chip to concurrently image targets in two infrared color bands while permitting the added benefit of allowing for tailored infrared color sensitivity. The focal plane array is composed of 5 - 1024 x 1024 corrugated QWIPs (C-QWIPs) using inclined micromirrors on the detector sidewalls to reflect light into parallel propagation thereby creating the necessary vertical field required for QWIP usage. Efficiency is enhanced due to the wide range of wavelength bands and high quantum efficiency of the array. This provides highly detailed imaging.

A missile warning system is capable of deploying both chaff and flares. Each missile carries flare and chaff dispensers on both sides of the weapon. Forty flare and forty chaff packages are carried for deployment. In addition the Type 300 can deploy chaff and flares in its terminal phase. It is also capable of carrying in place of its warhead a sophisticated digital electronic warfare suite. With sophisticated adaptable jamming capabilities, the system is programmed to activate under a number of preset parameters determined prior to launch. This allows only a few missiles to attempt jamming of enemy systems at a time. This provides a defense against home on jam weapons through the cascaded activation of EW systems.

Once in the target area, the missile activates its seeker, which can be forward-looking infrared (IR) or an electro-optical (EO) sensor. These are interchangeable; both have the resolution needed to identify targets at ranges of up to 16 km and incorporate a target auto-tracking capability which gives the weapon the ability to hit moving targets by day (with the EO seeker) or by night (with the IR seeker). The operator can confirm the final target using the missile's datalink. If the target cannot be identified on the initial approach, the missile will fly a go-around manoeuvre and make a new approach.

All Type 300 cruise missiles use Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) circuitry while antenna and power supply wiring make use of surge protectors, all designed to defend the missile against an EMP attack. The launch unit, the DAU and the missiles use fiber optic cabling wherever possible and are sealed with conductive gaskets.

Type 9000 Anti Ship Missile
Image


Details
The Type 9000 Anti-Ship missile is a ramjet-powered missile with a slim forward body, ovoid nose, and a fatter rear half with four divided air intakes. There are four clipped delta-platform wings and four smaller tail surfaces of similar shape, organized in a cruciform configuration around the fuselage. The missile is powered by a ramjet-type, liquid-fuel sustainer and a solid-rocket booster, which is used in the first four seconds of flight. The missile's range is 120 km (high-low profile) or 80 km (low profile). These ranges include maneuvers, so theoretically a missile could reach longer distances if it flew directly. The missile's speed is Mach 3 at high altitude and Mach 2.2 at low altitude. Twin liquid-fueled ramjets are responsible for sustained hypersonic cruise.

Both the surface launched and air launched versions of the weapon use a detachable booster rocket. The rocket varies in size and burn duration for each application. Submarine launched missiles are fired from VLS tubes using a buoyant launch capsule. The missile glides to the surface where the capsule lid blows and the missile's booster ignites launching the missile. The capsule is launched by pressure.

Targeting information is dumped into the missile. This is can be very detailed and can include not only current GPS coordinates along with target speed and direction of travel but can include, rules of engagement, scanned pictures of the target, target type, radar, laser or IR readings. Secondary targets can be identified and even prioritized by type or location. This information is loaded into an onboard targeting database and is constantly updated over the missile’s combat network link.

The missile then computes an intercept course for the target and once launched proceeds at hypersonic speed to the target area using inertial and GPS guidance. Terminal phase guidance includes a millimeter wave AESA radar which initially acquires the target. The radar has an elevation of +/- 120° and an azimuth of +/- 120°/120°. The radar features mapping capability using synthetic aperture radar (SAR), real beam and doppler beam narrowing modes with very high resolutions. The radar can detect and track with measurement of range and speed both moving and static ground and naval targets.

An imaging infrared (IIR) seeker located in a conformal low RCS pod at the bottom of the radar system scans the area for its target while comparing its data to the information in its strike profile database and off the combat network. The C - QWIP Focal Plane Array has elevation of +/- 12° and an azimuth of +/- 15°. The use of QWIP (Quantum Well Imaging Photodetector) allows a single chip to concurrently image targets in two infrared color bands while permitting the added benefit of allowing for tailored infrared color sensitivity. The focal plane array is composed of 5 - 1024 x 1024 corrugated QWIPs (C-QWIPs) using inclined micromirrors on the detector sidewalls to reflect light into parallel propagation thereby creating the necessary vertical field required for QWIP usage. Efficiency is enhanced due to the wide range of wavelength bands and high quantum efficiency of the array. This provides highly detailed imaging.

A missile warning system is capable of deploying both chaff and flares. Each missile carries flare and chaff dispensers on both sides of the weapon. Forty flare and forty chaff packages are carried for deployment. In addition the Type 9000 can deploy chaff and flares in its terminal phase. It is also capable of carrying in place of its warhead a sophisticated digital electronic warfare suite. With sophisticated adaptable jamming capabilities, the system is programmed to activate under a number of preset parameters determined prior to launch. This allows only a few missiles to attempt jamming of enemy systems at a time. This provides a defense against home on jam weapons through the cascaded activation of EW systems.

All Type 9000 Anti-Ship cruise missiles use Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) circuitry while antenna and power supply wiring make use of surge protectors, all designed to defend the missile against an EMP attack. The launch unit, the DAU and the missiles use fiber optic cabling wherever possible and are sealed with conductive gaskets.

"Machitis" Unmanned Ground Vehicle
Image


Features
The Machitis (Fighter) Unmanned Ground Vehicle is a semi-autonomous robotic vehicle, designed for supporting combat units in the heat of battle by using it's onboard weapons systems. The Machitis can be operated by one man, via the UGV's operator control unit, which consists of a vest pouch containing the computer, batteries and antenna, and a control/display unit. Its design also allows the unit to be carried in modular lightweight load-carrying equipment (MOLLE) systems of body armor. The Machitis UGV's control unit has a range of 200 km and features three control options: supervised autonomy, tele-operation or manually driven. It's sensor suite allows it to lock on and follow any person by recognizing their digital 3-D profile (captured by the onboard sensors), and it can also navigate terrain on its own following a trail of GPS waypoints.

The UGV is powered by a 68 kW Souvlaki Industries Type 8445 Turbo Diesel engine. It utilizes hydraulic/gear drive system which requires virtually no regular maintenance or adjustment. Each individual pump of the tandem pump setup drives a hydraulic drive motor that delivers torque to either the left or right side set of wheels. This is a much more efficient means of delivering power to the wheels when compared to other hydraulic vehicles which have a hydraulic wheel motor at each wheel. It's drive system components are protected inside the hull from the elements such as water, mud, dust, rocks, etc. that could damage exposed hydraulic motor seals as with other machines.

A fully-loaded UGV is internally transportable on board heavy helicopters, providing new logistics capability to light and early-entry forces. The Machitis UGV boasts a large array of weaponry. It's Primary Weapon system is the Type 340 40mm Autocannon, with 2,000 rounds of ammunition. This cannon has a rate of fire of 250 rounds per minute. Secondary Weapon System include 4 missile ports; 2 on the left and 2 on the right side of the robot. These ports can be used to fire Anti-Air and/or Anti-Tank Missiles. Auxiliary Weapon systems include a Model 45 LMG, with 2,500 rounds of ammunition, mounted as a coaxial to the Type 340 Autocannon.

For protection aganist ATGMs, the UGV features the SADS (Spheric Active Defense System). It includes an F/G band fire-control radar with four flat-panel antennas mounted on the vehicle, with a 360-degree field of view. When a weapon is fired at the vehicle, the internal computer uses the signal from the incoming weapon and calculates an approach vector. Once the incoming weapon has been identified and its course has been predicted, then the computers calculate the optimal time and angle to fire the neutralizers to intercept the threat at a distance of between 5 to 30 meters from the protected vehicle.

These neutralizers are stored in two rotating launchers installed on the sides of the vehicle. The launchers are normally stowed behind armored plating and only deploy when a threat is detected. The launchers fire the neutralizing agents, which explode in clusters,exactly in front of the threat, delfelcting it in less than 2 miliseconds,and ensuring that it will not cause any serious damage to the vehicle. The system is designed to have a very small kill zone, so as not to endanger troops adjacent to the protected vehicle. Additionally, the system can track and defend against multiple threats from all directions.

A fully-loaded UGV is internally transportable on board heavy helicopters, providing new logistics capability to light and early-entry forces. As a highly mobile 6x6 vehicle, it can carry 545 Kilograms of gear for a 9- to 13-person platoon, and it can accompany the squad on many missions through heavy terrain. The long-term vision of this system can accommodate armed variants, while improving its reconnaissance, surveillance and target acquisition capabilities within the concept of supervised autonomy. A squad-size manned or unmanned support vehicle is critical to today’s asymmetrical and urban battlefields.

For protection aganist ATGMs, the UGV features the SADS (Spheric Active Defense System). It includes an F/G band fire-control radar with four flat-panel antennas mounted on the vehicle, with a 360-degree field of view.

"Karcharias" Unmanned Surface Vehicle
Image


Features
The Karcharias (Shark) Unmanned Surface Vehicle is a remotely operated boat, based on 9 metre rigid-hulled inflatable boats. The Karcharias USV features a low profile upper structure which is sealed and aerodynamic, and a modular platform design, which allows it to be reconfigured to meet changing mission requirements, such as force protection, anti-terror, surveillance and reconnaissance, mine and electronic warfare. The hull is a deep V-shaped planing hull, with the inflatable section providing stability and endurance. It's 150 kW Souvlaki Indusrtries Type 9878 Diesel engine gives it a top speed of 50 knots.

The Karcharias USV offers enhanced surveillance, identification and interception capabilities. It is equipped with a Mini-Typhoon stabilized weapon system, a TOPLITE electro-optic surveillance and targeting system with day and night targeting capabilities through the use of forward looking infrared, charge-coupled devices and laser rangefinders, as well as a public address system. The USV is remotely controlled and can be operated with guidance from a commander and operator located ashore or aboard a manned vessel. This allows it to provide the first line of defense, inspecting vessels of interest while personnel and capital assets are held at a safe distance.

It can be armed with lethal or non lethal weapons. It can either mount a Remote-Operated Type 45 LMG (3,000 rounds), or a Type 340 40mm Autocannon (1,500 rounds) for lethal defense, while for less-than-lethal weapons, a laser dazzler and a water cannon can be added for non-provocative deterrence and defense. For this, the Type 2 Remotely Operated Weapon Utilisation System (ROWUS) is included. The weapon is still mounted outside the vehicle, but it is operated by the operator from either the ground station or the warship. For remotely operated weapons, the how to remain accurate when the vehicle is on the move has proven to be a problem for designers. To solve it, 3 seperate stabilisers use gyroscopes for stabilisation, while electro-optic scopes are used to relay the data back to the system at the speed of light. This instantanious feedback means that ROWUS can stay locked on its target, no matter what the vehicle does or how much recoil there is from the weapon. Highly sophisticated digital software even analyses the image,to give the operator an early warning of danger.

Specifications
- Length: 9 m
- Engine: Souvlaki Industries Type 9878 Diesel, 150 kW
- Propulsion: Water jet
- Speed: 50 knots
- Navigation: Radar, GPS and INS
- Sensors: TOPLITE electro-optic surveillance and targeting system (incorporating FLIR, Digital CCD surveillance camera and laser rangefinders)

HISTORIC INFANTRY WEAPONS
ΙΣΤΟΡΙΚΑ ΟΠΛΑ ΠΕΖΙΚΟΥ

Model 15 Bolt Action Rifle
Image


Background
The Model 15 is a bolt action rifle, which was in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces from 1905 to 1950. It was ENAMI's first design, and is the company's most iconic design. It is chambered to fire the 8x57mm round, with immense stopping power (4,096 Joules) and a long range. The rifle's design made it a favorite amongst Eaglelanders; the Presidential Guard's Infantry Honor Guard is still issued with these rifles, and nearly 30% of all Eaglelanders have at least one Model 15. It was also exported to many Unified Realm Nations and became known as a symbol of freedom and personal defense.

Design
The Model 15 could be loaded with five rounds of 8x57mm ammunition from a stripper clip, loaded into an internal magazine. The turned-down bolt handle makes it easier for the user to rapidly operate the bolt, reduced the amount the handle projected beyond the receiver, and enabled mounting of aiming optics directly above the receiver on the Model 15. Each rifle is furnished with a short length of cleaning rod, fitted through the bayonet stud.

The Model 15 consists of a receiver that serves as the systems shroud and a bolt group of which the bolt body has three locking lugs, two large main lugs at the bolt head and a third safety lug at the rear of the bolt which serves as a backup in case the primary locking lugs failed. The two main locking lugs display a locking surface of 56 mm², whilst the third safety lug normally plays no part in locking the action to avoid asymmetric and hence unbalanced bolt thrust forces. The diameter of the receiver was also enlarged compared to previous Mauser receivers for additional strength and safety. The bolt handle is permanently attached to the bolt and on the rifle is straight and protrudes out.

Another distinctive feature of the Model 15 is the controlled-feed mechanism, consisting of a large, non-rotating claw extractor that engages the cartridge case rim as soon as the round leaves the magazine and firmly holds the cartridge case until the round is ejected by the ejector, mounted inside the receiver. Combined with a slight bolt retraction at the last stage of the bolt opening cycle, caused by the cammed surface on the rear receiver bridge, this results in a positive cartridge case extraction. The rifle's bolt-action will cycle correctly irrespective of the way the rifle is moved or positioned during the bolt cycling action or if the cartridge has been fired or not. Only if the bolt is not brought back far enough, sharply enough, in a controlled round feed bolt-action the cartridge case may not be cleanly ejected and a jam may result. A cartridge that is directly loaded into the chamber instead of out of the magazine will not be engaged by the claw extractor. The bolt houses the firing pin mechanism that gets cocked when the bolt is opened and the cocking piece protrudes visually and tactilely from the rear of the bolt to indicate the action is cocked.

Model 8 Shotgun
Image


Background
The Model 8 shotgun is a hammerless slide-action, pump-action shotgun with an external tube magazine, which was designed in 1919. As the first UR-made shotgun, it set the standard for future UR Combat Pump-Action Shotguns, and became an export favorite in the region. It is still used by many households across the region as a personal, self-defense weapon system. It has been in service in the Eagleland Armed Forces from 1921 to 1982.

Design
The Model 8 is available in 28 gauge, 20 gauge, 12 gauge 16 gauge and 410. bore calibers. Its tubular magazine was loaded through the bottom of the gun. Empty shotgun shells ejected to the right. Depending on the particular wooden transformer plug installed in the magazine, two, three, or four shells could be stored in the tubular magazine. The magazine can hold six, 2¾" 12 gauge shells, when no plug is installed. Unlike other UR-made pump-action shotguns, the Model 8 has no trigger disconnector. It can fire each time the action closed with the trigger being depressed. That means that as fast as one can pump the action, another shot can be fired.

Specifications
Weight: 3.6 kg
Length: 1,280 mm
Barrel length: 760 mm
Caliber: 12 gauge, 16 gauge, 20 gauge, 28 gauge, 410. bore

Model 55 Submachinegun
Image


Background
The Model 55 is an open bolt, self-loading blowback operated weapon with a selective-fire option (located in front of the trigger) on early versions. It was one of the most popular submachineguns in the region, with over 40 million manufactured and 20 million exported. It remained in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces from 1935 to 1976.

Design
A tubular receiver was attached to the front of the wooden stock, which could be pivoted barrel down for maintenance and disassembly. A bayonet lug centred below the muzzle and could accept any bayonet. It used a straight 50-round magazine containing 9mm Parabellum cartridges which fitted fed into a brass magazine housing from the left, with spent cartridges ejected on the right. It was interchangeable with the shorter 32-round magazine with 11.43x23mm rounds. Stripping of cartridges into the magazine was aided by a catch on the top of the receiver. The Model 55 features a front blade sight with adjustable rifle-type sights . Manual safety is made in the form of locking cut, made in the receiver, which engages the bolt handle to lock bolt in open (cocked) position.

Model 30 Assault Rifle
Image


Background
The Model 30 assault rifle was designed in 1949, as the need for an assault rifle that could replace the Model 15 Bolt Action Rifle became more evident. The Model 30 is, in essence, the Eagleland's version of the legendary AK-47. It is the second most widely distributed firearm in the Eagleland and one of the most popular in the Unified Realm region, and modern, modified versions are still in service with several Militias, Paramilitary Police Officers as well as the majority of Eagleland Households. It has been in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces from 1950 to 1987.

Design
The Model 30 assault rifle shares many features with the AK-47 and the AKM. However, there are several differences. The main one is that the Model 30 is chambered to fire the 7.7x58mm round, a superior round to the 7.62x39mm in terms of stopping power alone (3,001 Joules and 2,460 Joules accordingly). Although this creates a problem of recoil while firing in full auto, the Model 30 features a 5-round burst firing mode and a slant cut muzzle brake that helps redirect expanding propellant gases upward and to the right during firing, which mitigates the rise of the muzzle during an automatic burst when held by a right-handed firer. The muzzle brake is threaded on to the end of the barrel with a left-hand thread. Despite these differences, the Model 30 assault rifle still shares the same main advantages of the Kalashnikov rifle family, being simple design, fairly compact size and adaptation to mass production. They are inexpensive to manufacture, and easy to clean and maintain. The large gas piston, generous clearances between moving parts, and tapered cartridge case design allow the gun to endure large amounts of foreign matter and fouling without failing to cycle.

The notched rear tangent iron sight is adjustable, and is calibrated in hundreds of meters. The front sight is a post adjustable for elevation in the field. The battle setting places the round within +/-33 cm from the point of aim out to 350 m. This "point-blank range" setting allows the shooter to fire the gun at any close target without adjusting the sights. The bore and chamber, as well as the gas piston and the interior of the gas cylinder, are generally chromium-plated. This plating dramatically increases the life of these parts by resisting corrosion and wear.

To fire, the operator inserts a loaded magazine, moves the selector lever off of safety, pulls back and releases the charging handle, aims, and then pulls the trigger. In this setting, the firearm fires only once (semi-automatic), requiring the trigger to be released and depressed again for the next shot. With the selector in the middle position (full-automatic), the rifle continues to fire, automatically cycling fresh rounds into the chamber, until the magazine is exhausted or pressure is released from the trigger. As each bullet travels through the barrel, a portion of the gases expanding behind it is diverted into the gas tube above the barrel, where it impacts the gas piston. The piston, in turn, is driven backward, pushing the bolt carrier, which causes the bolt to move backwards, ejecting the spent round, and chambering a new round when the recoil spring pushes it back.

Dismantling the rifle involves the operator depressing the magazine catch and removing the magazine. The charging handle is pulled to the rear and the operator inspects the chamber to verify the weapon is unloaded. The operator presses forward on the retainer button at the rear of the receiver cover while simultaneously lifting up on the rear of the cover to remove it. The operator then pushes the spring assembly forward and lifts it from its raceway, withdrawing it out of the bolt carrier and to the rear. The operator must then pull the carrier assembly all the way to the rear, lift it, and then pull it away. The operator removes the bolt by pushing it to the rear of the bolt carrier; rotating the bolt so the camming lug clears the raceway on the underside of the bolt carrier and then pulls it forward and free. When cleaning, the operator will pay special attention to the barrel, bolt face, and gas piston, then oil lightly and reassemble.

Model 32 Assault Rifle
Image


Background
The Model 32 Assault Rifle was designed in 2008 as a "revival" package for the Model 30 assault rifle. However reliable, the rifle still had recoil problems when fired in full auto firing mode, due to the extremely powerful round being fired (7.7x58mm round). The Model 32 features many characteristics that are present with many assault rifles of the 21st Century. Although it has never entered service with the Eagleland Armed Forces, it is the weapon of choice for Militias, Policemen and Civillians across the Eagleland and the Unified Realm.

Design
The Model 32 Assault Rifle, as mentioned above, has a series of changes that set it apart from the Model 30. The most distinctive feature is the presence of a balanced gas operating system known as the Balanced Automatics Recoil System (BARS), which functions along the lines of Newton's third law of motion. This system uses a recoil-reducing countermass mechanism with two operating rods that move in opposite directions, thereby providing "balance". One operating rod, the upper, has a gas piston facing forward while the also has a gas piston. The gas tube at the forward end of the handguard is double-ended to accommodate the two rods. The enlarged gas tube cover of the upper handguard guides both rods in their travel.

When the rifle is fired, gas is tapped from the gas port to enter the gas tube, driving the bolt carrier to the rear and the counter-recoil upper rail forward. The critical timing of the reciprocating parts is accomplished by a star-shaped sprocket that links and synchronizes both components, causing both to reach their maximum extension, or null point where forces are exactly equal, at exactly the same instant. The felt recoil is therefore eliminated, enhancing accuracy and assisting control during fully automatic fire. The travel distance of the Model 32 reciprocating parts is less than that of the Model 30, so the cyclic rate is higher at 850 rounds per minute rather than 600 rounds per minute on the Model 30.

Visual differences include a Tritium-Illuminated rear pop-up sight and fixed fore sight, Picatinny Rails and the use synthetic materials such as black fiberglass-reinforced polymer for the pistol grip and heat shield. This material is more cost efficient and much stronger than the original Model 30's wood furniture. Despite these differences, the Model 32 still fires the powerful 7.7x58 mm round, still has the same reliability features, still retains the 5-round burst option and still remains easy to clean and maintain, like the Model 30.

Model 34 Assault Rifle
Image


Background
In 1983, the Eagleland Armed Forces were looking for a new assault rifle to replace the Model 30 assault rifle in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces. Despite the Model 30's effectiveness, the rifle had lower-than-average accuracy, mainly due to it's recoil and simple design. The Model 34 was introduced one year later and in 1987 has successfully replaced the Model 30 in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces.

Design
The Model 34 is a selective fire 7.7x58 mm assault rifle firing from a closed bolt. It has a gas-actuated piston-driven long stroke operating system which uses burnt powder gases vented through a port in the barrel to power the weapon's moving parts. Once inside the gas cylinder, propellant gases pass through an L-shaped channel machined in the piston head and are directed forward towards the gas valve. The pressure build-up in front of the piston head pushes the piston and bolt carrier rearward. As the piston is driven back, the gas port and the L-shaped channel move out of alignment, cutting off the supply of gas to the cylinder. Surplus gas and powder residues are evacuated through an exhaust port in the gas cylinder. This system ensures that only the precise volume of gas required to overcome the mass and resistance of the rifle's moving assembly is admitted from the barrel. The manually adjustable gas valve has two settings, one for normal operation, and the second setting for use in the presence of heavy fouling or icing.

The rifle is hammer-fired and has a trigger mechanism with an ambidextrous safety and fire selector switch. The trigger is enclosed in a pivoting trigger guard which can be folded down to the left or right side allowing for unhindered operation with winter gloves. The Model 34 rifle has a 540 mm long sight radius and is equipped with pop-up iron sights adjustable for both windage and elevation. For night use, the sights are provided with self-luminous tritium-powered inserts. The rifle's sights were placed relatively low over the bore axis to ensure a minimal silhouette when firing from the prone position (the shooter presents a 20% smaller target than with the Model 30), but high enough to provide comfort and speed when shouldering the rifle in the kneeling and offhand shooting positions. The design of the shoulder stock also facilitates the rapid alignment of the shooting eye with the rifle's line of sight. The weapon can accept Picatinny Rails, which in turn can accept Scopes, Grenade Launchers and Laser Attachments.

Model 24 sidearm
Image


Background
The Model 24 sidearm, adopted in 1915 by the Eagleland Armed Forces and replaced in 2011, is the longest serving firearm of ENAMI in the Eagleland Armed Forces, and for a good reason; it's simplicity and stopping power made it popular amongst soldiers, and it is still popular amongst Eaglelanders, whether they are Militiamen or simple citizens. It has also been exported to many Unified Realm Nations.

Design
The Model 24 is, in essence, the Eagleland's version of the legendary M1911 of Joseph M. Browning.The basic principle of the pistol is recoil operation. As the expanding combustion gases force the bullet down the barrel, they give reverse momentum to the slide and barrel which are locked together during this portion of the firing cycle. After the bullet has left the barrel, the slide and barrel continue rearward a short distance. At this point, a link pivots the barrel down, out of locking recesses in the slide, and brings the barrel to a stop. As the slide continues rearward, a claw extractor pulls the spent casing from the firing chamber and an ejector strikes the rear of the case pivoting it out and away from the pistol. The slide stops and is then propelled forward by a spring to strip a fresh cartridge from the magazine and feed it into the firing chamber. At the forward end of its travel, the slide locks into the barrel and is ready to fire again.

A grip safety, sear disconnect, slide stop, half cock position, and manual safety (located on the left rear of the frame) are on all Model 24 sidearms. For night use, the sights are provided with self-luminous tritium-powered inserts. The Model 24 can accept 2 small Picatinny Rails. The 11.43×23 mm round combines accuracy and 702 Joules of stopping power for use against human targets. The cartridge also has relatively low muzzle blast and flash, as well as moderate recoil. Even in its non-expanding full metal jacket (FMJ) version, the 11.43x23 mm cartridge has a reputation for effectiveness against human targets because its large diameter creates a deep and substantial permanent wound channel which lowers blood pressure more rapidly.

"Mikros Aetos" Flintlock Pistol
Image


Background
The Mikros Aetos, or "Little Eagle" Flintlock Pistol was designed in 1725 by Hefaistus Armaments, one of the companies which makes up ENAMI today. The Mikros Aetos pistol has been in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces from 1740 to 1854, and has seen it's share of action all over the Unified Realm, including the Old States War, the Eagleland Revolution and the Eagleland-Spectarian War of 1808, as well as other UR conflicts by nations using it. It is considered as one the company's "first international designs" along with it's bigger "brother", the Aetos Musket, as it was one of the first Eagleland firearms to have been exported and fielded in many UR militaries during the 18th and early 19th Century.

Design
The Mikros Aetos Pistol is a flintlock design weapon. A cock tightly holding a sharp piece of flint is rotated to half-cock, where the sear falls into a safety notch on the tumbler, preventing an accidental discharge. The operator loads the gun, usually from the muzzle end, with black powder followed by lead shot, a round lead ball, usually wrapped in a piece of paper or a cloth patch, all rammed down with a ramrod that is usually stored on the underside of the barrel. The flash pan is primed with a small amount of very finely ground gunpowder, and the flashpan lid or frizzen is closed. The gun is now in a "primed and loaded" state, and this is how it would typically be carried while hunting or if going into battle. To fire, the cock is further rotated from half-cock to full-cock, releasing the safety lock on the cock. Then, the gun is leveled and the trigger is pulled, releasing the cock holding the flint. The flint strikes the frizzen, a piece of steel on the priming pan lid, opening it and exposing the priming powder. Afterwards, the contact between flint and frizzen produces a shower of sparks (buring pieces of the metal) that is directed into the gunpowder in the flashpan. Finally, the powder ignites, and the flash passes through a small hole in the barrel (called a vent or touchhole) that leads to the combustion chamber where it ignites the main powder charge, and the gun discharges.

The Eagleland Army at that time used paper cartridges to load their weapons. The powder charge and ball were instantly available to the soldier inside this small paper envelope. To load a flintlock weapon using a paper cartridge, a soldier would move the cock to the half-cock position, then tear the cartridge open with his teeth and then fill the flashpan half-full with powder, directing it toward the vent, close the frizzen to keep the priming charge in the pan, pour the rest of the powder down the muzzle and stuff the cartridge in after it, then take out the ramrod and ram the ball and cartridge all the way to the breech, replace the ramrod, shoulder the weapon, place the weapon on full cock and fire on command.

"Aetos" Flintlock Musket
Image


Background
The Aetos Flintlock Musket was designed in 1720 by Hefaistus Armaments, one of the companies which makes up ENAMI today. The Aetos Musket has been in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces from 1740 to 1840, and has seen it's share of action all over the Unified Realm, including the Old States War, the Eagleland Revolution and the Eagleland-Spectarian War of 1808, as well as other UR conflicts by nations using it. It is considered as the company's "first international design", as it was the first Eagleland firearm to have been exported and fielded in many UR militaries during the 18th and early 19th Century. It was nicknamed by LG Chief Executive Davy Crockett as the "Tyrant Killer".

"Hefaistos" Matchlock
Image


Background
The Hefaistos Matchlock was designed in 1596 by a firearms designer by the name of Alexandros Fotiou, who was nicknamed "Hefaistos" because of the fact that he introduced firearms in the Eagleland. His son, Konstantinos Fotiou, would found the "Hefaistus Armaments" Company, and would rename his father's rifle Hefaistus. His legendary design forseen many future flintlock musket designs, and became known as the first "Unified Realm Firearm" in use by any regional military at that time. Though the base design ressembles modern rifles the weapon is a matchlock design firearm. It has been in service with the Eagleland Armed Forces from 1599 to 1740, by which time newer musket designs rendered it obsolete.

Design
The Hefaistos Matchlock is a Matchlock design weapon. It held a burning slow match in a clamp at the end of a small curved lever known as the serpentine. Upon the pulling of a lever (or in later models a trigger) protruding from the bottom of the gun and connected to the serpentine, the clamp dropped down, lowering the smoldering match into the flash pan and igniting the priming powder. The flash from the primer travelled through the touch hole igniting the main charge of propellant in the gun barrel. On release of the lever or trigger, the spring-loaded serpentine would move in reverse to clear the pan. For obvious safety reasons the match would be removed before reloading of the gun. Both ends of the match were usually kept alight in case one end should be accidentally extinguished.

Specifications
Weight: 4.8 kg
Length: 149 cm
Barrel length: 110 cm
Cartridge: 20 mm musket ball
Action: Matchlock
Rate of fire: User dependent; usually 3 to 4 rounds a minute

Features
The Type 9900 Explosive Device was devised for the Eagleland Armed Forces, mainly Explosive Ordnance Disposal teams and Special Operations Unit members, whose mission is to destroy and/or disable enemy equipment, vehicles, as well as obstacles such as doors, walls and damaging railways, vehicles and electronic equipment, as well as destroying Improvised Explosive Devices, Land Mines and other munitions via controlled demolition. The Type 9900 is referred to as an "Explosive Device" mainly because there is no standard explosive charge inside the metal conatiner; instead, the Device can be fitted with any kinds of explosive, from C4 Plastic Explosive to Thermite. The Type 9900 can be triggerred in 3 ways: with the aid of a burning fuse, the aid of a remote controlled detonator or with the aid of a timer. Weighing less than 150 grams empty, when filled with explosives weight levels can reach 1 Kilogram to 1.5 Kilograms.

Type 45 Combat Knife
Image


Features
The Type 45 Combat Knife was devellopped in 2011 as a new combat knife for the Eagleland Special Forces. Compared to the other Type 50 bayonet sold by ENAMI, the Type 45 is lighter and more suitable for hand to hand fighting without the knife being used as a bayonet. Like the other knives sold in ENAMI, the Type 45 lacks a fuller. A sharper point helps penetrate body armor, while serrations near the handle help improve its function as a utility knife. The main component of the blade is S35VN Stainless Steel, developed by Crucible Steel in Syracuse, New York during 2001-2002. Originally, Crucible Steel were pursuing the challenge of creating a new blade steel specifically for the knife industry that was tough, corrosion resistant and readily workable. The product of their efforts was S30V, alloyed to accommodate these specific capabilities and manufactured to ensure clean, uniform steel.

Unlike traditionally cast and rolled steel, CPM (Crucible Powder Metallurgy) is produced in a process that reduces molten alloy components to minute balls - or powder - which results in every grain comprising the exact composition of alloy elements. The powder is compressed under significant force to a homogenous, solid state and the steel is rolled to required stock size. A small yet significant advance was made when S35VN was introduced in 2009. The addition of Niobium to the alloy results in finer grain structure which gives more toughness. This means slightly better edge retention, shock absorbency and corrosion resistance. The major alloy components of S35VN are:

Carbon (C) 1.4%
Chromium (Cr) 14.00%
Vanadium (V) 3.00%
Molybdenum (Mo) 2.00%
Niobium (Nb) 0.5%

The Model 356 polyester elastomer scabbard, designed by Maxaira Industries, offers a weight and noise reduction from previous scabbards by Maxaira Industries and is ILBE compatible. It has a fitted internal stainless steel spring and friction device at its throat to secure the bayonet. A ceramic-coated aluminium honing rod is located on the back of the scabbard. The scabbard is compatible with the MOLLE/PALS modular attachment system.

Naval
Type 7600 Combat Rubber Raiding Craft
Image


Features
The Type 7600 is an inflatable rubber boat, the speed, weight and adaptability of which is suitable for special operations. The boat can be used for over-the-horizon transportation, inserting lightly armed raiding parties or reconnaissance teams onto beaches, piers, offshore facilities and larger vessels. The Type 7600 can be inflated in minutes by foot pump, compressor or CO2 tank and can be deployed from shore and a variety of vessels. Additionally, it can be launched from several types of aircraft and submarines equipped with a special lockout chamber. Its chief advantages are light weight, compact size when stowed, and the safety imparted by its super-buoyant nature (which gives it the ability to operate in relatively high seas) stealth, and versatility.

A total of eight individual airtight chambers comprise the Type 7600. The main hull or gunwale contains five intercommunicating chambers, which are separated by internal baffles and valves. This means that a single leak will not result in loss of pressure throughout the boat, and that air can be bled between chambers to compensate for loss in one. Two additional chambers, located below the gunwale on either side and called "speed skags," provide cushioning for the boat's occupants and additional buoyancy in case of pressure loss in the hull. The final chamber is an inflatable keel tube which runs the length of the craft and gives the bottom of the hull a "V" shape, imparting directional stability and additional shock absorption. A wooden "transom" board at the stern provides a mounting point for the outboard engine(s) and a "thrustboard" at the bow keeps the hull from collapsing inward under power.

A ready-for-use craft includes an outboard engine (two in some configurations); removable aluminium deckplates or roll-up slatted decking; paddles; a bow line for securing the docked boat and a "righting" line which is used to flip the boat in the event of capsizing. At the bow of the boat are storage bags for equipment (foot pumps, extra lines, etc.) and a special fuel bladder, which can be of either 6- or 18-gallon capacity and which feeds the engine via a flexible hose. Deflated and rolled up, the boat and all necessary equipment can easily fit into the bed of a small pickup. All Type 7600's use as standard a 41 kilowatt two-stroke engine with a pumpjet propulsor, which consists of a shrouded impeller. This design reduces the risk of serious injury to personnel in the water when compared to the traditional open propeller. It also reduces the risk of the propulsion system being seriously damaged by submerged objects. As a standard, the Type 7600 utilises the Type 88P Armor Panels, which consist of DYNEEMA, which is considered as the world's strongest synthetic fiber, are capable of stopping multiple 7.62x39mm rounds at varying ranges - they are also more resistant to Natural erosion than Kevlar. All features can be included, but can also be omitted whenever necessary.

To: Eagleland National Arms Manufacturing Industry
From: John O'Connor, Ministry of Defence, Britinthia.


Good Morning Sir/Madam,
The Britinthia Army has for the last 30 years relied on the Wayfarer 130 truck for it's light and medium transport capabilities. However these are old vehicles and are not able to cope with the demands of an every increasing military.

Many replacements have been considered, and we have decided that your EL-75 "Metaforeas" Transport Truck is going to be the replacement.
We wish to buy the production rights (DPR) for this vehicle and produce it locally under the name of "Wayfarer 150".
Total: $200,000,000

The funds will be wired to you as soon as I have been notified that the order has been processed.

I set out to create a nation based on few laws, and common sense. Then I realised people are half wits who will use any excuse to test the boundries, and no boundries would be anarchy. Britinthia now has red tape on a scale never before seen outside of the U.K.

Threat level:

Postby Soviet Klaec » Sun Feb 19, 2012 10:07 am

Greetings ENAMI,

Soviet Klaec has taken an interest in your Model 55 Subachinegun. Due to its size, we believe it would be perfect for under cover intelligence agents who need an easily concealable weapon when in the field, saving valuable lives as simple side arms and knives no longer meet the power required to combat insurgents as they continue to get their hands on automatic weaponry and grenades. We'd like them chambered for 9mm Parabellum rounds, as we are not familiar with the other cartridge type.

As such, we would like to order 100 000 of them, for a total of 7 500 000 USD. We'd also like to purchase 400 000 extra magazines, as our agents may be unable to immediately escape after carrying out their operations. Let us know how much it would cost for the extra magazines, and we will move forward with the order. Lastly, we are also curious if your company sells the 9mm Parabellum rounds, and if so, how much for how many? We would be interested in purchasing in bulk.

Regards,
Vladimir Helmar,
Ambassador of Klaec
If we must choose between peace and righteousness, I choose righteousness. - Theodore Roosevelt

"The United Socialist States of Soviet Klaec is a very large, safe nation, -snip-, The government is well known for declaring war on other countries for suspected slights, criminals are thrown to the Grizzly Bears to repay their debt to society, main battle tanks stalk the woods of Soviet Klaec in search of Grizzly Bears, and the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle."

To: ENAMI || From: The Fascist Empire of Aquitayne || Subject: Procurement of Weapons || Encryption: HIGH



To whom it may concern,

It is a pleasure to see another arms manufacturer go global, and especially one which has excellent products to be sold. To help bring your business to the frontier of international sales, and to assist in Aquitaynes growing Global Strike Program, we will be spending a good sum of money here at ENAMI. Firstly, we would like to state our support for the development of the Model 35A2 Assault Rifle - which will receive $1,000,000.00 Tithes for development -, and the EL-25 "Ypermachos" Infantry Fighting Vehicle - which will receive $5.5 million Tithes in support - to assist in giving Aquitayne an increased edge against enemy ground forces.

We would now like to place an order for the following items:

    • 4,000,000 Model 25 Sidearms
    • 4,000,000 Model 45 Light Machineguns
    • 3,000 EL-04 "Vatrachos" Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle
    • 5,000 EL-600 "Imitheos" Self-Prepelled Anti-Aircraft Missile System Vehicle
    • 8,000 ET-700 Howitzer
    • 3 Alexander The Great Class Aircraft Carrier
    • 15 Konstantinos Palaiologos Class Cruiser
    • 20 Miltiades Class Battlecruiser
    • 20 Lysander Class Destroyer
    • 25 Agamemnon Class Air Defense Destroyer
    • 15 Kolokotronis Class Multipurpose Frigate
    • 10 Konon Class Amphibious Assault Ship
    • 10 Artemis Class Submarine
    • 15 Aries Class Submarine
    • 15 Poseidon Class Nuclear Submarine
    • 8,000 Type 300 Cruise Missile

We hope the requested items are available, and that our order can be fully approved. Due to the time restraints of this order, we are unable to calculate the cost of the order - however whatever it sums up to, you have our assurance that it will be payed in full upon the verification our order has been approved.

Seig Heil!

Dear Mister Vladimir Helmar, Ambassador of Klaec

Your order of One Hundred Thousand Model 55 Subachineguns, has been approved by our Foreign Sales Committee on the evening of the Nineteenth of February, Two Thousand and Twelve.

We will begin the construction of the requested military hardware from this day until the completion of your order, in approximately 1 NS month, in which all prepared hardware shall be transported by Sea, given the distance between our two nations. ENAMI instructors stand by to assist and instruct your nation's personnel on the utilization of such weapon systems and equipment.

The total sum of Seven Million and Five Hundred Thousand dollars ($7,500,000) pertaining to this contract is to be wired towards the Eagleland National Bank, by at most the First of March, within the year of two thousand and twelve. The cost of additional magazines is free of charge, per our company's policy. We will modify all 100,000 Model 55's to the 9mm Parabellum cartridge, although it is not advised, given the latter round's profound weakness in stopping power, when compared to the standard cartridge of the Model 55.

I certainly hope that our small arms will fulfill your military's supply needs. We thank you for choosing the Eagleland National Arms Manufacturing Industry.

Sincerely,
Konstantinos Papaioannou,
