Vosmuossaun T-5 Trench-crossing Tank

Designed during the Great War (called Belkan War outside
Frecoslavia) the T-5 was the last in a series of prototype
trench crossing vehicles. Designed as a joint venture between
the Merneva Design Bureau and the Vosmuossaun company Chuzhinov
Motors, which had experience designing armored cars. The first
prototype, designated T-1 began testing in 1913, it was a bulky
piece of armor on treads which served no practical purpose other
than to act as a proof of concept for a trench crossing vehicle.
Design was refined throughout 1913 and 1914 until the winter
where the military deemed the 5th prototype satisfactory.
Armament was a modified light howitzer firing HE shells as it
was not expected to engage any enemy armor, a fully 360 degree
rotating turret enabled it infantry in any directions though gun
depression was poor. The armor was sufficient to protect against
small arms (a requirement from the army) as well as fragments
from artillery, though the engine was overworked as it was
derived from an armored car design so speed was poor.
Nevertheless it proved successful and mass production began in
mid 1915 where it helped break the stalemate. Post war it has
seen design refinements, a more powerful engine enables it to
move faster (though still sluggish compared to armored cars) and
the howitzer was replaced by a 37mm anti tank gun whilst the
turret modified to feature a co-axial MG.

The Resnevon Aeronautics RA-10 (also known as the Resnevon
Tri-motor) is a passenger plane designed in the 1920s, the first
prototypes passing trials in 1919 and beginning production in
1920. So far there are few available besides those sold to the
government for private use (such as carrying envoys or His
Majesty) but several commercial airlines have expressed interest
in it. Inspired by some foreign designs, Resnevon incorporated
an all-metal design which was pioneered in the era of the great
wars making it according to Viktor Resnevon himself "the safest
airliner today". The army meanwhile has expressed interest in
contracting Resnevon Aeronautics to build a tri-motored bomber
based on the RA-10.
