Ex-Shepistani C-22s on sale for $10 million per plane, with 27 already sold off? Wow. Let me think for a moment.
The Langley Air Force will take delivery of fourteen regular C-22s; the Langley Postal Service and Skyfleet Cargo will each take delivery of eight. In all, that's thirty Antonovs that Lonestar no longer has to worry about.

I basically printed money there by assuming some Dominion companies would be purchasing some.
Also, consider your purchase request accepted!

Yeah, but I have double the size of your economy.

Ok everyone remember when I said I was expanding my fleet of Hustlers?
Well it was a cover for what I'm really doing, I'm building a T-4/B-70 clone, only I've got an SJ-93 in the works (and the B-90 Vindicator will use 4 of them for Sub-orbital goodness).
Edit: It also has Pye Wacket and DAMS goodness to take names.

If you try to create a B-70 clone and get it operational within a few years, without explictly saying so before, I'm calling bullshit. It's a bit of a stretch to go up to a full blown strategic bomber B-70 analog, especially considering the inherant problems with the B-70 devolpement.

1. It's smaller than a B-70 (It's Hustler sized).
2. I'm saying what I'm doing now, so that when the Hustler production doesn't match with what I'm saying I'm building you guys can take a closer look.
3. The "Object" was a scale model for aerodynamic testing.
4. I'm looking at getting the thing flying in 3 years, and operational about a year after that.

A T-4 clone is more likely. The T-4 is outdated though, so you could go with building newer configurations (T-4M or T-4MS comes to mind).

I might want to build some localised T-4MS in a year or so.
Do you have any specs for the T-4MS?

Actually, I think Alan Shroompard should be a totally sane Shroomanian - which is why he has the honor of being the first man in space. I mean, a sane Shroomanian? That in itself is an achievement!
And, well, he should be totally modest. Have him thank the Byzantines and PeZookians and his home country for all that they've done, and for the Crimsons for making the world's AWESOMEST rockets!

Someone already did. Beowulf sells F-4s based on the SR-71.

SR-71like interceptors already exist, both through Beowulf and Japanistan. The OD has a few Japanistani Mach 3+ Interceptors now in it's inventory, so...

Hmm... Beowulf said he would deliver the consignment of 96 F-12Ds... but it will be something like 2013 before the whole order is complete..

So with editing broken I can't add anybody to the treaty signature list but I know Canissia has signed since I was last able to edit. Has anyone else signed and I missed before I start either offering goodies or organizing worldwide boycotts ?
