Tagtaa Flying Machine
Based off of the revolutionary developments in America and, to a substantially lesser extent, France, this simple biplane makes use of our excellent 3-cylinder motorcycle engine. Heavily based off of the Wright Glider that was patented, and making use of the extremely limited information about the Wright Flyer, this biplane steals and copies using a control system inspired by the Wrights' wing-warping setup, though simplifications lead to the "warp" being confined to specific portions along the backsides of the wings. The elevator, however, is moved to the back, along with the vertical tail. The engine is along the centerline of the plane between the two wings, and the pilot sits behind it. The tail is even further behind that. The control system is composed of two pedals for the tailplane, a lever for the ailerons strategically warped wing sections, and a lever for the horizontal tailplane. The pilot has an actual seat, of course, with a second seat behind him for one (1) of the following: spotter/observer, enthusiastic-politician-whose-support-we-needed-to-finish-the-project, business magnate, foreign dignitary, machine gunner, photographer, moviemaker, thrill-seeker, moron.

 I agree, a tagatta is better than aflying machine made of woof.

Very Hard: 3
Tagtaa Flying Machine: Borrowing what we knew of the Wright flier and attempting to improve upon it with our genius, we managed to make the Tagtaa Flying Machine. The major differences between it and the Wright flier is that its better as its Karikhitan and has Karikhitan engineering, mostly thanks to the engine. It can reach a speed of 60 kmh, has a surface ceiling of 20 meters, and a max takeoff weight of 365kg, while unloaded it weighs 273 kg. It took a few tries to actually get a working version, the others crashing, and it is actually a bit difficult for our new pilots to control without a good deal of training, but, its extremely cheep to make. It also should be mentioned we did get strategically warped sections of the wing through control at the ends of the top wing, but we have found this wing warping can cause the wing to break if its been damaged. It can fly about 35 km before needing to land.

It is now the Revision Phase, the Khan is satisfied with your work, and sees promise in the Tagtaa.

Kharvaach 80mm Antiairship Gun
A straightforward upgrade to our existing 80mm gun, the Khazvaach makes use of a mounting that can be aimed almost (but NOT exactly) vertically, and can make complete circles if necessary (i.e., if something flies over you [Think Flak-88 cruciform mounting from WWII]). The addition of recoil pistons and the use of contact detonators on the HE-Fragmentation (i.e., the casing is made of overhardened steel and lined with small metal balls, so that when the shell explodes razor-sharp fragments and what amounts to artillery-sized buckshot cover a wide area) shells makes this gun very deadly. In order to reach high enough to destroy airships, the barrel is lengthened, and the casing for the shells is also made slightly longer, to hold slightly more propellant.

...I dunno 80mm Antiairship Gun
A straightforward upgrade to our existing 80mm gun, the [sorry brain not functioning right now, propose a name or something and I'll get back to you tomorrow, maybe] makes use of a mounting that can be aimed almost (but NOT exactly) vertically, and can make complete circles if necessary (i.e., if something flies over you [Think Flak-88 cruciform mounting from WWII]). It is also revamped a bit, to fire rounds with much higher velocity than it did previously, an improvement mostly due to a somewhat lengthened barrel, allowing more time for the propellant gasses to act on the round.

Should also include recoil pistons and maybe some sort of flak shell.

Also for name how about kharvaach it means archer if google translate is anything to go by.

Normal: 4
Kharvaach 80mm Antiairship Gun: The Kharvaach is a new cannon that is similar to normal artillery with the main difference being quite simply its shells aren't meant to return to the ground and explode violently. Instead, its shells are meant to fly into the air, hit one of those Nafunan airships, and then explode violently. Although we don't really have the ability to test it out on one of Nafuna's own airships, it can punch through a bit of armour good enough so it should be effective in dealing with them, at the very least so they don't come so close to the ground and happily fire away at us and somewhat accurately drop bombs with little danger to themselves. Its still as heavy as one would expect it to be, meaning it is slow to move and vulnerable to enemy artillery, but so long as we stay outside their range it should be fine. Costs 2 ore.

It is now the Battle Phase, The Khan is actually somewhat happy for once.
