[u][b]Anti Ship Cruise Missile Project Update[/b][/u]

Second test of the dual boost motor a success, due to the problems with the High Pressure Compressor being rectified. The missile was to be outfitted with an engine based on the F107-WR-402 Turbofan Engine used on the BGM-190 Tomahawk Cruise Missile. The next step would be to develop the Satellite Navigation Guidance System to place on the missile.

Two Squadrons of B-5A Black Wraith Stealth Bombers at Douala Air Force Base go to high alert. Substantial amounts of logistical support begin setting up in Cameroon Province as E-3B Sentry Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) Aircraft and EC-130J Commando Solo Electronic Warfare Aircraft were taking off along with several KC-135R "Stratotanker" Air to Air Tanker Aircraft.

Scores of F-29A Black Kite Stealth Fighters, F/A-18SE "African Hornet" Multi-role Fighters and F/A-66 "Phoenix" Lightweight Multi-role Fighters patrolled the airspace along the coast with many carrying long range drop tanks in case of need for longer range or duration missions. Standing orders meant that all of the aircraft airborne were fully armed.

M1A2 Abrams Main Battle Tanks are to be replaced by the M7A1 Buford Main Battle Tank:

[img]http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs36/f/2008/271/e/d/M7A1_Buford_MBT_by_PaintFan08.png[/img]

Crew: 4
Designer/Builder: West African Systems (Land Division)

Armament:
1 x 120mm M360A Electro-Thermal Cannon
2 x 12.7mm/0.50mm M3B Machine Gun (One Coaxial mounted)
1 x 7.62mm M240B Coaxial Machine Gun
1 x 40mm M29 Automatic Grenade Launcher

The Buford is the West African Army’s replacement for the M1A2 Abrams Main Battle Tank. Incorporating new armor, weapons, and battlefield management systems it matched only by the latest European designs. Lessons learned from observing battles in Austria and during training exercises showed the weaknesses of the Abrams which were to be corrected in the M7.

At the center of the M7A1 is its new gun. The M360B is an Electro Thermal Gun which provides a much higher velocity for KEW rounds. It allows the Buford to defeat most tank armor, in addition to smashing reinforced bunkers with HEDS rounds. Three Machine Guns and an Automatic Grenade Launcher provide anti-infantry firepower. This allows the M7 defeat any threat encountered from enemy tanks to swarms of insurgent fighters.

Improving upon systems first deployed in the M1A2, the Buford has the one of the most advanced battlefield management and fire control computers. Each tank can wirelessly communicate with another through the Inter-Vehicle Data System (IVDS). At the lowest levels the IVDS helps maintain unit cohesion and for officers the ability to get real time intelligence from unmanned and manned assets. In addition, air strikes, artillery support, and re-supply can be called for over the IVDS. Hardened battlecams with full NVG and FLIR abilities, give the Buford’s tank commander a 360 degree battlefield view.

With the interim President now in office, in two weeks there was to be the first Presidential Election which would also decide the seats in the West African Senate.

The unrest had subsided with reported damage in Douala and Yaounde where one hundred and sixty demonstrators had been arrested on various charges including vandalism and causing social unrest.

All B-5A Black Wraith Stealth Bombers have grounded indefinitely after one suffered catastrophic structural failure during a a training flight forcing the two man crew to eject safely. All five squadrons are currently deactivated until an inquiry finds the cause of the failure.
