Could we design a version with just autolaoders, then revise the other two into a version for later production? Or revise a cheaper version right off the bat?

 Eh, We probably can in a revision. Lets go with the full scale one for the design.

Only asking this due to how bad your rolls on the previous turn were compared to the Federation.  Why not just remove the indirect firing systems for the design and in a revision replace the Radar with that system?

That'll work.

Are you suggesting all our rolls will be worse than Federation? :P

 I was hoping to have things that could do both, and we could do well.

 Lets just go with it as listed.

If you try to do both with one design, you can't make the design at all.

Is this everything?

Spoiler: votes (click to show/hide)

Last chance to scrap the WWII tech and go for some S.A.M.installations instead...

Lets ditch the indirect fire system for now, if we msut ditch something. We can always add it in down the road, asmuch as it seems silly to me.

The design has been sabotaged by enemy infiltrators!  A penalty has been applied!

Quote from: NG-MAAA52
The New Guinean mobile anti-air artillery model of 1952 is a proposed weapon system based upon the AS-T25 chassis and intended to replace the Bumblebee AT/AA system currently in service, armed with twin 3.6in cannon rigged with autoloading systems that increase rate of fire by two hundred percent over the Bumblebee AT/AA system. The cannons are rotated through usage of an electric motor. For targeting, it uses the  systems of the Bumblebee, but modified to include a radio-based range finding system linked into the mechanical targeting computer.  A radio to link it with command is included within the design.

 Target Cost: 4 Ore, 4 Oil
 Type: Vehicle, Medium, Specialized

New Tech
Autoloading Systems [5 Turns]
Radio Detection and Range Finding Systems [5 Turns]

Adapt our radios to be more compact and cheaper to produce, try to establish publicly-accessible military-run radio stations that provide entertainment to the troops and patriotism in the populace...

 Namely, those frigging skid things.

 And for the radios, hopefully we can get an actually man-portable-in-combat set. Small and light enough to be a backpack, with a range of atleast five kilometers would be good, and is about what we can hope for without transistors.
