The Dinos, already a huge customer of HCS surplus and new build AFVs, have placed a huge 3 billion zark order with various Clone companies and the HCS for artillery, trucks, engineering equipment and general purpose military vehicles. The Dinos have got their hands on 1000s of AFVs but are now looking for other military vehicles as they rebuild and increase the size of their army.
Engineering equipment is a serious lacking in the Dino Army and the order includes 150 of the engineering tank ET-55, other equipment and training by HCS personnel. The Dinos have already ordered the next generation ATC-107G self-propelled gun (and indeed will receive the new weapon before even the HCS!) but have now ordered 200 surplus ATC-107Cs plus 600 towed guns and artillery tractors. No fewer than 3000 army trucks and field cars have also been ordered from the HCS' surplus stores.
The order also includes the previously announced improvements to the T-55Z MBT which has formed the backbone of the Dino legions' armoured brigades. The project has now been designated T-55ZDM. Other items ordered include 150 of the desert specialist Sand Tapir APC. The order on all items includes spares, consumables and ammunition.
