The Clones have added a new customer to their rapidly expanding arms exports business. Howharn which is an ethnic Eritran planet though not part of the Free Eritran States (and indeed is politically opposed to Molab) has placed a 34 million zark order for ex-HCSAF aircraft. 40 A-85 Browning COIN aircraft, 30 O-43 Oscar liaison aircraft and 74 A/CH-26 helicopters have been bought by Howharn along with some munitions.
It is a small order but is hoped will just be the precursor to bigger orders down the line. Howharn does not have the money for a large combat fleet but are looking into replacing the ships in it's merchant fleet and may consider hosting a HCS space base in return for a mutual defence pact.
