Neutral planet Yeng has placed a 1.5 billion zark order with the Clones for a variety of military equipment for it's army and airforce. Yeng does not have a space navy except for some unarmed government operated communications ships however at this stage Yeng say they are not looking into purchasing any combat ships.
What Yeng is buying however is some surplus HCSAF aircraft which will all be refurbished. 100 F-40s and 160 A-85s have been bought plus an unspecified amount of ordinance. 12 new C-440s have also been ordered. Pilot training will be carried out on Cloneworld by the HCSAF.
Yeng's army is to receive 350 T-88++ tanks, 700 TRV-5 Tapirs and 40 ATC-107C artillery guns plus small arms and other equipment. All are from the HCS reserve. The HCS will establish a liaison base on Yeng to assist with technical operations for Yeng with it's new equipment and provide some initial training. It is thought Yeng will buy more weapons at a later stage, maybe once they have accepted some of the above into service.
These weapons are likely to have to be new, after several big sales over the last few years the once vast stockpiles of stored AFVs and other equipment has now been run down to a minimum the HCS wish to retain for operational reasons.
