The Imperial Persian Government wishes to invite all manufacturers of Arms to the Tabriz Arms Exposition, exhibit space will be made available to all interested parties. The TAEX 35 will be an Air and Land oriented exhibition.
TAEX 35 will be held October 1st to October 31st. The Imperial Secretariat of Defense also wishes to let it be known that companies exhibiting on TAEX 35 will be given preferential treatment when the concourses for a new service rifle, LMG, HMG and artillery are held.

Is this exposition focused on land armaments, naval armaments, combat aircraft, or what?

Expect the NPC Czech industries to be there. Historically they used to sell to everyone so it makes sense for then to be present. I guess just use historical weapons made by Skoda and other as their presentation card.

If aircraft included, both Mexican Aviation COs, TNCA and Azcarte will be present.

Clarification it will be an Land & Air only.

Unofficially what is being sought after by Persia is:

100,000 Service Rifles + Production License
Up to 500 Light Machine guns that must be able to fire the same ammunition as the service rifle.
Unknown numbers of Heavy Machinguns
Unknown numbers of AT Guns
Unknown numbers of Light AA Guns
Unknown numbers of 100-105mm Mountain Howitzers
Unknown numbers of 100-105mm Howitzers

Unknown numbers of 150-155mm Field Guns
Unknown numbers of Tanks
Up to 60 Light Recon/Bombers + Production License
Up to 60 Fighters + Production License
Up to 20 Medium/Heavy Bombers

Germany will, just for free, suggest that the artillery list is probably overkill at this point: without a motorized artillery arm, howitzers and guns over 105mm are hard to bring into position in time to be useful on a mobile battlefield (like the Eastern Front of the Great War). Persia might well be better served to focus it's attention on the more portable 75mm-105mm size weapons and purchase only a minimal number of heavier guns until motorization, and the road network to support it, can be completed.

This is as stated an unofficial list, pending what will be available. However as noted by Great War officers "The 75mm gun is neither able to break the physical nor morale resistance of the enemy"

TNCA will be demonstrating the following planes:

C-1 Tololoche II, fighter
C-3C Quetzalcoat, fighter/bomber
A-1 Mapache, ground attack fighter
B-7 Coyote, light bomber
O-1 Toucan, scout

All of the above will be available for license production

The C-5 Agulia will also be demonstrated but no license production is available with it.

If they're in entrenched positions, no. If they're in the open, guns in that size range are perfectly capable of doing great destruction on them. The question is, is Persia expecting to deal with an entrenched enemy or one in the open?

[Oh, I wouldn't say that Germany's boycotting things.... Just haven't had time to get the list ready]

Great Britain will send the following. (All as private companies)

About Airplanes:
China will replace soon a lot of it's fighters, so that's a possibility for a small nation to buy them

In my entries I have as India having exported the Hawk I fighter to Persia. So I guess you should have at least a squadron or two already operational.

India's aeronautical companies will send their products. No land equipment will be offered at this time.

Name: Alleppey Aeronautics Sikara II (Hawk)
Type: land based fighter
Crew: 1
Max Speed: 260 mph at 13,000 feet
220 mph at sea level
Engine: 1 x AA 200 at 750 hp radial
Range: 640 miles
Armament: 1 x 7.92mm machine guns(Nose), 1 x 15mm machinegun(Nose); 5 30lbs bombs or 2 100lbs bombs.

Notes: Using a newer engine that raised the horsepower by one hundred. Over 30 regiments currently using this aircraft or the improved version.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Imperial Aeronautics Sher (Lion)
Type: land based fighter
Crew: 1
Max Speed: 290 mph at 14,000 feet
260 mph at sea level

Armament: 1 x 7.92mm machine guns(Nose), 1 x 15mm machinegun(Nose); 5 30lbs bombs or 2 100lbs bombs.

Notes: Started production in early 1933 and was the reason Alleppey increased the horsepower of their engine in an attempt to keep at par with their competition. Close to 20 regiments currently using this aircraft. Faster that their competition but with shorter legs.

Well then Persia extends an special invitation to the producers of the various Half tracks

Hydrema, the manufacturers of Denmark's Bille tank series, will be present, and will also be acting as sales agents for the products of it's 2 parent companies; Maskinfabriken Dana, with it's range of heavy transport vehicles and De Forenede Automobilfabrikker A/S,with it's "Stridsvogn" (Chariot) half track.

Due to the timing of the Tabriz Arms Exposition, Hydrema will also reveal to the world it's latest concept vehicles during the event.

D.A.F. will also send a representative, and samples of the aircraft will be made available from the Danish Air Force units in Danish Somalia.

Took me some time to work on the neglected Army section of the Japanese encyclopedia in order to figure out what could be present at the Tabriz Arms Exposition. As there might be more potential buyers out there at the Tabriz Arms Exposition, Japan will also have scale models of the PBR and CCB present (despite it being an Air and Land oriented exhibition).

The Iranian Army has placed an order for 500 Skoda H 6ST6-T 4t Trucks.

The Imperial Army wishes to announce that it has requirements for:

100 Radio trucks
500 1t Trucks
2000 ~5t Trucks
2000 ~7t Trucks
unspecified number of Artillery tractors, Primemovers and APCs

You'd be lucky to get 1 quarter of your order of trucks. Every nation needs em not only for their own militarys but their civil sector as well.

Since the Czechs delivered 1300+ Trucks to Romania alone in 1937-38 I doubt that they would have troubles filling an order for 500
