Arms and Maritime Manufacturing announce major expansions in Majatra
Model Plant to be built in Beiteynu
Several dual-republican arms industry companies have recently announced a joint venture into Majatra, big players such as Narikan, Mauser and Passschiffe Bau AG as well as a new weapons producer led by the infamous Peter Thaller's son Karl, all stated that they would establish a direct manufacturng presence in Majatra. While most of them made use of the announced Bannerpakt Fund (BSPF), TRuR decided to seek ties to new partners in Badara where they intend to build a factory to produce modern light tanks specialized for arid and dessert terrains.
The plans involving Beiteynu include the purchasing of cheap real estate which is currently being sold off from the private sector entities that were hit by the partial breakdown of the Yeudish Nesset and building various manufacturing sites there, the companies were not able to comment on what exactly there were going to produce there but said that the conventional weapons catalogue that they also made available to the Equifund are going to be main arms to be created there. Which includes small and medium arms from Narikan and Mauser and possibly also armored vehicles. Economists speculate that the biggest and most influential player in this scheme is the ship manufacturing giant Passschiffe Bau AG which is going to start ship production in Beiteynu and is also starting a Research and Development Center in the Medinat State to make use of the know-how for new ship-designs to manufacture for the Equifund.
