Prelude to the AN-M1 Debut in the War

Jonathan and Poul spent the rest of the day finalizing the details of the order with their team. They were both excited and nervous about the prospect of fulfilling such a large order for a foreign government, especially considering the current state of war in the region. However, they were confident in their abilities to deliver quality products on time.

As they sat in their office, surrounded by piles of paperwork and contracts, they couldn't help but reflect on the gravity of their situation. They were no longer just businessmen, concerned only with profits and market share. They were now players in a global conflict, with the power to shape the course of history.

The war between the Russian Empire and the Ottoman Empire had been brewing for years, with tensions running high in the region. The involvement of the British Empire and France had only added fuel to the fire, with both sides now fighting for control of the Black Sea and the surrounding territories.
