The design of the Annihilator class cruiser is almost completed by the end of the year, but it has some minor flaws. The dual transmission system is fairly complicated, and has considerably lengthened the expected construction time. Additionally, it's 5 Propeller system(3 Steam, 2 Diesel) is expected to be quite noisy, making it very easy to be picked up by Hydrophones.

Team Beta: HelicopterThe expertise of our aviation engineers was critical in the successful creation of this project, nevertheless, the technology is still very experimental, and the result might be slightly underwhelming. Our helicopter uses 2 Old 200 kw Aviation engines to propel 2 coaxial Twin propellers. Tilt can be used to make the craft move in a variety of directions, and a small load can be attached under it. It's very light, quite nimble, and rather fragile. ((Note: Is probably record breaking, but anyway))

Weight: 1000 kg
Max takeoff weight: 1500 kg
Max flight duration: 30 minutes
Max altitude: 200 meters
Operational range: 20 km
Team Gamma: Hunter RefitThe refit of the Hunter goes well, though the problems with the transmission can't easily be resolved. They do manage to raise the speed a little bit, and prevent the construction time from rising despite the complex sonar system.

Team Zeta: Radar improvement.Team delta further refines the radar installation. Resolution is increased, as well as range. The useage of more advanced parts also raises the costs however.
Radar (gamma edition)
Range: 50km
Resolution: Good (Can identify and count enemy craft. Most of the time, that is)
Displacement: 50 tons
Cost: 100 (Uses special parts)
Team Delta(Small Tank)Progress is made on the small tank, but it's far from complete. The engineers do ensure you that it will be a very qualitative design.
Team Eta (Mule Based selfpropelled gun)The Mule SPG is surprisingly simple. Though not that comfortable.
Mule SPG
Weight: 2.5 ton
Length 2.5m
Width: 2m
Height: 1.22 m
Crew: 2
Armour: 10 mm (No roof)
Main: 40 mm gun
Engine : 60 KW Petrol engine
Operational range 200 km
Speed: 48 km/h on road
Trait: Local resources (Construction requires no imported resources)
Cost: 5+5
Team ThetaA kit is produced that allows diesel engines to run on a variety of oils, and Petrol engines on a variety of alcohols. It doesn't work on every engine, and it reduces lifetime and performance somewhat, but it works.
Alternative fuel kit:
-Reduce performance with up to 10%
-Reduced lifetime
Naval production is reorganized. (Again). Our engineers work as hard as they can to upgrade Sparrow's to IIb status. Meanwhile, production of Sparrow III's is slowly started. Our engineers also finish the construction of 4 V-3 airships (Not, cargo balloons) and 10 Grigorovich floatplanes.
Additionally, an experimental Coal liquefaction program is started. It's production is limited for now, but it does produce high quality oil. Refortication of Crow's Isle is not on the order, as the battle still rages on around the island. Additionally, the academy has been upgraded.
We received some simple Mine designs from our Russian comerades.

Situation on the front in Crow's Isle is quiet. The enemy has made no attempts to break through or reattack our lines. Supply runs using Grigoviches, Cods and V3 Airships were successful. The V3's proved a tempting target for the enemies anti air artillery, but they have stopped their attempts after it became clear that the craft was mostly immune to their weaponry. Nevertheless, the enemy has also tried, and partially succeeded in resupplying his troops by air, using both gliders and a small cargo aircraft. Often this happens at night, in order to prevent our aircraft from intercepting his ships.
Attempts to bombard the enemy naval production using our Osprey bombers has been unsuccessful. According to our intelligence services, most production happens on their capital island. Flying over the enemy terrain at day would decimate our craft, and they simply don't have the range to fly around. Albatrosses do attempt some scarce bombing of the enemy factories, but so far, no noticeable effect has been detected on the enemy war production. Our intelligence does claim that we hit a rifle factory, and some ammunition plants.
In the air, some conflict occurs, but not much. Naval raiding is similairy quiet, with the enemy preferring to attack our convoy's at much longer range. Strangely enough, the Northern supply line has also come under submarine attack.
((Yes I know, barely anything happened. Most interesting stuff happened in the 2 war posts.))
