The new stealth Shadow Fighter-Bomber is all but invisible to radar and the naked eye, as are the Chameleon Tank. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the Quetzal Gunship is brightly coloured but its particle beam is devastating.
OOC:Oh come on man. Sure we are already making invisible,
stationary vehicles. But the idea that you could have fast moving ones would be insanely expensive. You'd need a ton of satelites beaming down the images over the different vehicles. Something like a jet or plane would be impossible to cover due to its speed. However, I guess if you painted these ships light blue and white they'd be difficult to spot in the air.
But to be honest, there is no way you could just start making uber weapons like these willy nilly. The tanks are only somewhat believable, but only if the can engage their cloaking while standing still. Still, they would cost an insane amount of money, and deploying even just a few would cost an incredible amount of money, not to mention time or resources to create this stuff.
IC: King Kawchek III has finally begun to fund cloning technologies. Currently, an animal's DNA is extracted right after or even before birth and then is used to create more embryos. This has helped scientists avoid the problem of using the degraded DNA of older animals. This way, a true clone can be made, one that isn't short lived yet exactly the same as the original. However, occasional problems occur when animals with mutations or unwantable traits are cloned. This results in a large number of unwanted animals that are either put down or used to study on.
In more military news, the Islands continue to become fortified. The factories of Baja continue to make planes and aircraft carriers. While production is slow, it continues to give great results as the people of Volcania can safely sleep at night while our Pheonix IIIs race through the air on patrol.
One of the reasons King Kawchek III decided to fund the cloning projects was the completion of the research of flame-based weaponry. After many years or replacing weapons, the Volcanian Army has been fully equiped with weapons such as incendiary rounds for specialized guns. These guns will be used only when a threat presents intself to the Volcanian Kingdom. Thus, these weapons will not be sold to the public.
Also, many tanks are being fitted with flamethrowers that replace the traditional machine gun turret. This allows for a more protected flamethrowing without getting rid of the main gun of the tank.
Incendiary grenades are also becoming increasingly common.
with the surplus of weapons not being used by the main Volcanian Army, the older weapons are being shiped to Baja California where the Volcanian soldiers await the huge amount of weapons and supplies coming their way. To avoid possible interfearence from another party, the exact method that these weapons are being shipped will be kept secret from the public.
