If I recall correct. There was a limited number of engines we could acquire under the "prototype"/ testbed clause or something without senate etc. approval, wasn't that number 20 or something ?
I can remember, but did we get the engines we need and did we get any additional engine as backup ? (a couple of extra in the hand would be nice).
Also if you have any info on any additional test we're going to be conducting with the first prototype, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Leaked report reveals gigantic warship plan for 40 billion

we'll see about that.
Let me just add that unless TOGG is of the VW or even Suzuki Quality as an EV AND with a pricetag WAY below any competitor meaning 20-30% cheaper than any other, then it won't amount to much.
The Hybrid solution is very impressive, and when I look at the numbers it should be a no brainer. There are however somethings that only the wise know from experience, so I assume that may be why we haven't swapped to Hybrid solution.
But I don't see why they can't have several prototypes and...

Well, considering the issues at hand, I think my post was pretty spot on with regards to how bad they are at PR and proactively working towards better PR.
While we're so bad at it. the foreign news companies just need to stick 2-3 people to the task of further undermining and giving us bad PR.
Thanks.
It's amazing how very little there is about landforces and the progress on their projects. This silence doesn't bode well. Even if it is to fly under the radar (which I doubt they're able to keep progress a secret with so many spies around).
There should be some news for the general...
You're sounding like a broken record. repeating the same things.
One of the most important aspects of journalism is to be able to find and deliver proof of claims. And the best way to keep things on the "agenda" is to fan the flames at right times.
Now if you want to prove claims, you need to...
