You fail your bid for a scientist, and acquire the Silver Hogs through string-pulling. (Power cooldown expires in July.)
Projects continue mostly as normal. You estimate the Jaeger project will take, at this time, a bit less than a year to complete.
The money goes off to Ashley Flare as expected.

Funds.. funds never change. You are short this month, with insufficient money to cover your deires. You do manage to conduct repairs of your damaged vehicles, build one of your new workshops, and construct a set of advanced ERA armour.
And conduct research. The small laser drone looks workable, and your teams tell you it'll be done in seven months. Well, six not counting this one.

Technical Armour Kits. 25. Adds armour to unarmored small vehicles like Technicals. Also applicable to artillery pieces. Qualifies for combination with the Advanced ERA plates.
Advanced ERA plates. 25. Improves armour on any small, medium or large vehicle that is already armoured.
Intel Teams:
Council: Things quiet. Some worry about stronk Kaiju. Very satisfied with overall progress.
Listening Posts: Miserable. The fake crew is stuck actually working and is unable to make much progress in sniffing out the basic designs. To make things worse, the crew in the USA has a member caught with an unsecure device in a secure area, and is being detained. They aren't sure if they'll get expelled or be okay, and will try to lay low.
Hand: The hand crew uncover The Plan. It's fairly ingenious, actually, they intend to puppet a balkan state's government, and take it over to gain international recognition as a free mercenary state. They then plan on using their elevated status to infiltrate areas with kaiju-based weaponry and hold most of the world hostage. You're not sure how realistic it is, but it'll be annoying at best if it occurs.
HA: The PR centre will possibly reduce the penalty to funding for there being a lot of funding sloshing about already. It'll apply onto to HA, naturally.

Your research project finishes. It's a boy!
Well, it's an electromagnetic force field. It should be applicable to all vehicles of at least size small, and should improve their protection markedly. It'll also cost 50/set. It doesn't make an unarmored artillery piece into a tank, but it'll be harder than a MRLS, and you aren't certain what the limits on this are.. it should be applicable to modern tanks.
Future improvements are possible, but your scientists think it'll be easier to make stronger versions of this if they are intended only for use on larger vehicles than small ones, but small ones (and personal ones) should be possible.
You are also now the proud owner of a submarine.. and a permanent scientist. Score! Also impressive are the dual-head warheads, there's enough for about four units, which is more than you were expecting.
Your armoured MRLS project is currently stalled with no work being done on it.

You succesfully acquire a lead scientist.
Most of your other projects go smoothly. The coke knights bid on the submarine, or at least that's what they tell you they did. You send the money anyway.
A tank and an infantry platoon arrive. You still don't have a hangar, so once again the tank is shoved into a workshop.

Large workshop finishes. Yaaaay.
You win the bid on all the tanks. And the 'cuda. It's got what appears to be some kinda sonic-based AOE weapon.
It's weird. And incredibly loud. It's difficult to judge exactly how good it is, although it should be able to hurt kaiju. You also think the engagement range will increase it's capabilities.. the closer, the better. Here's the estimated stats.
Small, Power: E(AoE), AP: F-D?, Range: E, Payload .., Speed C, Armour -, Durability F.
The tanks are more conventional.
Med, Power, F. AP, E. Range, E. Payload, E. Speed, E. Armour, F. Durability, E.
As per your orders, you then order the construction of a new large hangar... and buy some guts. Apparently to feed the fish? Maaaaybe?
Next up, you recieve the autocannon. It's designed for a vehicle that does not yet exist.. you need to make one that can have at least one place to put an extra weapon. The shooting range boys rig up a fixed mount for testing, which results in the following stats:
Power, E, AP F, Range F. It will have (Ammo Short) on a medium, and (2 Shots) on a small vehicle. It will increase the cost of any vehicle using it by 25. (Upkeep +5)
Second to last, you win the bid on one of the lead scientists, with a bid of 52 buckazoids.
Lastly, your current scientist apologizes for not managing to reverse-engineer the transport plane. Apparently all the weapons testing and EXTREME NOISEMAKING was just too distracting. It should be completed next month.
Second scientist goes to work on Kaiju muscle, and can break down one part into 3 useable Kaiju muscle bits.

You construct additional Waspras, aiming to create a swarm of them.
Unfortunately, your first Waspra appears to be territorial, and is intent on trying to kill the newcomers as soon as you introduce them to each other. After a while, you still have one Waspra, albeit this one has different markings than before, with green patches over its legs and what not. You're not certain if it's the original Waspra, or if one of the later ones won a fight.
Some funds also arrive.

But what is one bullet without it's propellant? Once a bullet should be loaded, another full shell must be loaded. It is so wasteful, only having half of the divine devices accomplishing the almighty goal.
At this point, you haven't managed to finish anything specific for your factory to build. But you manage to lay out the machines, the materials, the equipment.. all that you need for an automated ammo factory, except the most vital part.. the ammunition.

You get to work on the protective field. After all, if the shots never reach the target, they cannot do damage, right?
Several weeks later, you are now looking at an incredibly blurry vehicle. This, fortunately, can be turned off and is only on the outside of the vehicle, but you are now certain that at least some projectiles will get disrupted in the Disruptor Zone.
On the downside, the vehicle now seems to hate the ground, giving it wiiiiide turns with all wheels spinning wildly.
On the plus side, it can totally drift.
(Also, you now pay 120/turn in upkeep, thanks to the second Mad Science Device.)

It is now the action phase of April, 1999. The council warns you that the next Kaiju is unusally strong, and estimated to make landfall at Taranto. It is expressed on the particular importance of this Kaiju.
