Jackson would like to annouce planes to develope a fully reuseable maned space craft, for carring people and cargo into space. We are now opening up bids to private companies and hope that we can begin to see designs of various protypes with in the next 3 years.

Also After exetensive years of devolopement(I spend 400 billion in R and D a year) Jackson airforce has public annouced its newest jet fighte, F-20. This Fighter is based on stleath technology, it primary defense is that it radar sigiture is that of a small bird. All weapons are in a weapons bay inside the body of the aircraft to futher cut down on its radar signiture. It top speed is mach 2, but usually travels below the speed of sound to aid in it not being seen. The Jackson airforce hopes to be able with in the next 10 years to make the change over to the F-20 as it primary fighter aircraft. Also a version for the navy is coming out with in the year so that the carrier fleet can add these aircraft to their airfleet.
The main purpose of the this fighter will be air patrolls of our own airspace as well as conducting missions with in hostile airspace, mainly to destroy the opposing airforce with out being seen or heard.

The Ceroo Science Institute has successfully tested a new sea-going vessel driven entirely by solar power. While of little pratical use in the the rainy Cerooan seas, in hotter climes it could prove useful, offering cost-savings (no fuel to buy) and helping to protect the environment.
Subject to private sector contracting, the Solar Foils are to be on sail in the next 3 years.

The USJ has finally fished its work on a reusable space craft, for use in the Apolyton Space Station project. (I will make the payload it can carry near what US space shuttle can carry and same number of crew, only difference it is only one stage, on external fuel tank or rockets.) Production lines are now up and running. We expect to produce about 6 of the shuttles, and more if anyone else is interested in them.

Yes we welcome such help. The only thing is that etheir you have to have a special launch pad for this shuttle(helps launch it off giving it more energy), or you need a 747 to lift it off the ground and then launch at about 40,000 ft.

The USJ has just rolled out the final shuttle in the last production run, USJ now has 6 of its newest shuttles ready to work on the internation spacestation. Training missions to get crews ready for the construction of the space station are now underway.
For all other nations, please contact us if you wish to buy these shuttles. The more you buy the cheaper it is to make them, and please do not want long as we will have to shut the production line down soon if no one wants to buy a shuttle from us.

Each of the shuttles is 25 Billion in US Dollars. FOr two, we will charge you 42 Billion for the two and give you enough spare parts to keep the shuttles running for a year.

Marijuania has developed a new type of fighter, the Hastings-class.
It is a break with traditional design, in that it is butt ugly. It is very fast and long range, moderately armed with air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles, the ability to carry nuclear warheads. As such, it loses out quite badly on manueverability, which a rotary machine gun turret compensates for. It is equipped with state-of-the-art sensory tech, simliar to that found in spy-satellites. This extra weight again has implications, but the powerful engines should deal with that.
The fighters are cheap to manufacture in separate facilities, and assemble later. Anyone who wishes to buy some of these craft, then place your orders here.
Marijuania's military capability will be published shortly on the Military Strengths thread.

Noosland's first phase of coversion to fusion power is complete. All population centres (or clusters of such centres) with 5000 or less people are now powered by a mix of solar panels, wind turbines, and fusion reactors. The cost of supplying electricity to these centres is reduced by 50% by preliminary analyses, and savings of annual maintenance costs are estimated at 40%. |
Noosland's second phase of conversion is now complete. All population centres except the five biggest cities are now powered by fusion, solar, wind, and hydro. Power generation has been decentralised to a community/district basis. This allows built-in redundancy in the power supply system, and reduces maintenance costs. Overhead power lines have been replaced by ones that run through underground conduits, reducing their vulnerabilities to various elements such as high winds, hail, and freezing rain.
All the coal and oil firing plants supplying these centres have been decomissioned. They will be dismantled, and the land will be turned to other use, or release to nature.

We would like to announce a successful test of our Ion engine technology (first used on the Voyager and Pioneer spacecraft in the 1970's in RL).
An interplanetery probe was launched on a Marrakesh class rocket, and sent into an eccentric orbit of Earth. At perigee, it engaged its Ion engines, powered by an on-board nuclear reactor, and was able to power out of orbit, to the deep reaches of the Solar System. The current reported speed is 20km/s and rising. We expect, after a period of acceleration, the probe to reach 75km/s, and be able to continue powered spaceflight for upwards of 80 years, due to the large cache of fuel.
This technology will be used on Marijuania's new class of shuttle, the Marley-class, to enter service shortly. Of course, because it sacrifices acceleration for speed, it needs to be used in conjunction with ordinary rockets, and it is largely useless in Earth orbit. It is best for interplanetery ships and space probes, as well as the theoretical possibility of weapons to shoot down vessels in heliocentric orbit.
