"Helicopter destroyer?" he asked with a pause."Regardless, we can provide 3 of the KA-27 helicopter. Which version of the KA-27 would Japan like to purchase?

How much are the Nissan 300ZX (Z32), Toyota Supra, Honda NSX, and Acura Integra?

For the aircraft in question I think that we can work something out in regards to the specific variants you want. How often would you allow Russian observers in a factory?

For the authorization, I think that can be done especially if our relationship advances. What additional defense exports is Japan interested in?"

"Our navy utilizes destroyers equipped with helicopters such as the Shirane-Class Destroyer. The Ka-27PL we understand to be the most advanced anti-submarine warfare helicopter available. If that is the case, we would like to move forward with that purchase. We would actually buy 8 of the Ka-27PLs and one Ka-27PV.

Unfortunately, we are unable to secure export pricing for these vehicles at this time but we will inform your government immediately when we are able to do so.

Because we are seeking such a broad, comprehensive production license of some of Russia's most advanced equipment, we want your government to feel as comfortable with our production being per our terms of agreement. Therefore, we would be happy to have permanent Russian advisers stationed in every factory producing Russian technology. That way, your government can ensure your rightful payments and we can ensure that the models are produced as accurately as possible.

We are interested in the goods in the message we directed at your government's export department. Namely the following products:

[4] Il-96M Passenger Airlines (Three Class Seating Capacity)
[1] Il-96M VIP Presidential Variant
[4] Il-96T Cargo Planes
[1000] Ural 4320 Medium Trucks
[300] Ural 4320 Tankers
[200] D-30RH 122 Howitzer

We have increased the quantities so as to avoid needing to place several future orders.

On another track, to discuss the possibility of the regional alliance. While we have hopes for such an alliance, we would like to secure bilateral relations with Russia immediately. Not only do we seek a partner for military cooperation in products and training, we would like to secure a defensive alliance, and deeper economic ties. A Strong Russian-Japanese axis is Asia would strongly position our mutual governments.

With this alliance, we can secure our exports to 20% markup, promise military drill training to protect our pacific borders, and increase the flow of trade between Russia and Japan. We would like to create visa allowances between Russia and Japan. As partners, both of our interests would be better secured."

"Let me put in a request to our export department to determine the pricing of the exact models you are requesting. I am not entirely up to date on such things. But I am sure that we will have the prices before we are done here.

Permanent Russian advisers? i can see you are very serious about this deal. Very well, I think we can move forward on that front.

For the other equipment let me grab the prices and I can get that right back to do.

I agree that a stron Russian-Japanese axis in Asia would strongly position both of us. So, I believe a mutual defense agreement is more then possible. Tough for economic ties what are your thoughts?"

@Suvorov

 

[Suvorov]

"Yes, with your advisers stationed there, your government will be at ease that we are complying with the terms of the agreement. We have been provided some of the pricing already so please ensure your people have not already advised us on prices beforehand. We have already begun production of several planes under the license. We will need those Ka-PLs as soon as possible as our Navy is fitted for Anti-Submarine Warefare helicopters but we have no helicopters to mount on them.

We have prices on the sports cars.

1996 Nissan 300ZX Z32 Model: $90,000
1996 Toyota Supra 3dr LB Base Manual w/Sport Roof: $58,000
1996 Acura 2dr NSX Cpe Manual: $115,000
1996 Acura Integra 4dr Sdn GS-R Manual: $30,000.

Mutual Defense pact is agreeable to us.

As for economic ties, we already have a strong trade agreement. However, we can lower visa requirements as well as cooperate on research projects."

[HeadlessSeeker]

"So, we have come to a decision. In regards to the requested
Il-96M Passenger Airlines (Three Class Seating Capacity)
Il-96M VIP Presidential Variant
Il-96T Cargo Planes
Ural 4320 Medium Trucks
Ural 4320 Tankers
D-30RH 122 Howitzer
We are willing to add them to the production license. The reason this is that we have determined Japan to be trustworthy in this regard. Is this alright or do you still prefer we produce them? Also, we will be sending the overseeing staff to the factories. Can you give us the addresses for the places of maneufacture?

We are currently working on a economic trade agreement with the Ukraine that would see the dissolution of tariffs and non tariffs between Ukraine and Russia. We will also wish to impose a common tariff on all imports into our nations. We were wondering what Japan would think of such a experiment if it succeeds? We believe that this can become an Eurasian economic pact if successful."

“Excellent. We will add those licenses to our list and produce those assets as needed. We thank Russia for its cooperation. We have proven honest and reliable with our past productions and will continue to be so towards these new ones. Russia needs to do nothing other than collect its due profits. I have a prepared list of the facilities currently producing Russian goods and the list of potential additional factories.” The list was emailed to the Russians via secure channels, private and encrypted.

“Continuing on, we therefore turn to what is remaining:

- Agreeing on the exact terms of the NAP
- Agreeing on the exact terms of the Mutual Defense Pact
- Agreeing on the exact terms towards economic cooperation
- Decision on the remaining Russian assists we mentioned earlier
- Decision on the sports cars discussed prior.

I am sending some proposals to you now”

“As far as economic cooperation, we feel the elimination of tariffs is an important step and we agree to such terms. As far as the common tariff, how does Russia envision such a tariff functioning? The idea sounds good in principle.

Next, the remaining military assets we discussed before:
Helicopters -
Mil Mi-6 x 45
Mil Mi-28 (Anti-Tank Attack) x 8
Mil Mi-24 Gunships/ Ka-29 x 8 (Note that these are for ground based forces but we do require naval assault transports, hence the dual request)
Ka-27 PL
KA-27 PV

And for our Paratroopers:
IL-76D Transports (between 10-30)

Lastly, does Russia still require sports cars? We also wish to mention that we are developing an armored diplomatic car that we feel will provide the highest level of security to Russia’s VIPs.”

 

[HeadlessSeeker]

"I believe we can agree to this. I will send it to the President at once for his review. He will fax the document to you after we have had it approved. I will keep you updated on that situation.

As for tariffs the proposal is simply that of a no tariffs and no non-tariffs policy with an added common external tariff. This would encourage entrepreneurs in Russia especially in far east to do business with Japan. Lets say an Russian entrepreneur wishes to purchase consumer grade electronics in Japan and sell them in Russia. Normally the price would be bumped up and be more expensive with tarifs. It would discourage them from doing business with Japan. But with this they would be free to get quality Japanese products in Japan and then sell them in Russia. Otherwise, they might do their business elsewhere. For instance... China? If we included a streamlined border enforcement this would even allow for quicker business between our two nations.

For the helicopters and paratroopers are you not sure that you would prefer to have them as a part of the production license? Otherwise, I will fetch the prices.

For the sports carts, we would like 500 of the 1996 Acura 2dr NSX Cpe Manual."

@Suvorov

 

[Suvorov]

“Perfect. Please let us know if any amendments your government would like to see.

As for the tariff situation. We find it interesting but have one concern at this point - what about our existing trade agreements and ability to make future ones. We have several no-tariff trade agreements existing and some in the works. We do not want to invalidate our existing agreements. Furthermore, would this arrangement mean that all future trade deals Japan seeks will be bound to the common external tariff?

Yes, production licenses are better and easier all around. We will also want to add the Ka-50 alligator instead of the Mil Mi-28, given that the 28 is still in its infancy.

Based on our profit cap above, if we are agreeing to it, the price per vehicle would be $95,400. This times 500 would work out to be $47,700,000. Let us know if we should go ahead.

Now, we must simply confirm agreement to these terms. The last item is this economic cooperation.”

@HeadlessSeeker

 

[HeadlessSeeker]

"It would mean that yes. Which may be a reason not to join in such an agreement. We can leave that situation on the table for now.

I also just got word on the document that was sent. They will approve it. However, they would like the addition of the production licenses added in. That way we can have it in writing as a part of these documents.

For the cars, we will ave the money transferred within a day or two."
