 1 each of Tank, Naval, Air, Material designers.

 1 Industrial Concern.
Bonuses from the tank, naval and air design companies are only applied to equipment whose
research is completed after the design company is hired. For example, if a tank design company
is hired 1 day before research is completed for a relevant tank, that tank will receive the design
company bonuses, along with any relevant tanks that are researched in future.
Bonuses will not be applied to equipment that was fully researched prior to hiring the design
company.
Design company bonuses also apply to variants.
