I'm guessing there's already dibs on any A-10s, are there any dibs on the other A-classifications of US military aircraft? Say the A-1, A-2, A-4, A-6, A-29, or A-37?

Okay, first dibs on A-10 or A-6: otherwise any general purpose gun and bomb truck will do.

If we do get a navy can we dub it Taffy 3?

We could go no witnesses in a unseen, low risk way. Or no witnesses in a war-crimes, potential to get caught and potential to risk pilots way.

I say we go the reaper route. We get the main thing we want at a lower risk and lower material cost.

Double post, but I just realized something. The Textron AirLand Scorpion is getting a production run as a trainer. Which means we should be able to use it in the game. Which means we might be able to buy some new ones from the manufacturer at a discount if we offer to put it thru its paces in combat.

Just to be clear, is the Nugent fan line also a reference? Blame the gay was 1980s and blame the foreigner was 1850s. That guy would go on to create the Monitor/rotating gun turrets.

Native.

And see if we can serve as a moderating force that arranges for neutrality between mit and bsnc. Like "gently caress it, gps still works so we stick to x miles off shore, you stick to y."

Ideally we could work out an alliance between Mitsubishi's​ successor and the Berring Straight Corp. Granted this requires the skills of a master diplomat who can get the two to unite against Nugent and against another common for.

God a Kaiju would come in handy for that.

I really hope we're allowed to coordinate ground strategy in a way that redirects the more hot-blooded folk to more appropriate targets. Or at least share the potential cost/benefits.
