The Royal Navy of Volstik needs to build itself up to help defend against the communist horde of Galdania. It requires:

3-5 Destroyers
8-10 Frigates
14 Fast Attack/Patrol boats
3 Subs

We would prefer Non-American ships.

I have Kilo class SSK's (diesel/electric). Im sure we could work something out.

Kilos would be excellent, diesel power is preferred for now because of the costs associated with the nuke subs. How many cruise missiles can a Kilo carry?

:idea: *Devil Ray Class Concrete Submarine (CSN-1)
http://www.popularmechanics.com/science/military/1998/12/concrete_submarines/images/tb_40074_1.jpg
Propulsion:
Fuel Cell and Batteries powering 4 electric turbines.
Armament
(12) Vertical torpedo tubes w/1 230mph Shkval(Squall) Rocket powered torpedo each +2 extra (14 total)
(6) Electric torpedo tubes with 1 torpedos each
Misc. Specs.
Crush Depth: 2200ft (steel subs can only descend to 1800ft)
Concrete subs sink offshore, waiting for enemy ships to
pass overhead. Then they fire the Shkval torpedos verticaly
destroying the enemy before they are detected
(they blend in with the sea floor and since they
are not moving make little noise + the concrete muffles the sound)
Crew: 6
Cost is $96million dollars $4 million off!!!!

:idea: *SeaSquid Class Nuclear Attack Submarine (SCL-1)
http://www.hpphoto.com/servlet/LinkPhoto?GUID=7b511403-719d-2a33-2a50-7b6b5dff3eca&size=
We have finnaly decided to introduce our undersea aircraft platform
which is also a fully functional attack submarine on a par with
the Seawolf class. We have found a way to contain a helicopter
on board our submarines. A sliding panel system and rubberized composite
soft insulation system fully enclose a small triangular
flight deck that can accomadate an AH-220 Sea Lion, AH-1Z SuperCobra
or SH-65A Dolphin helicopter. The attack helicopters can be
re-armed refueled and boarded while the vessel is fully
submerged, however to board the SH-65A you must first open
the panels. All of the accepted helicopter types use folding rotors
to fit in the cramped space. With this new capabilty you can easily
support and escort convoys, carrier groups etc with all the same
features as a frigate. This submarine also contains SAM missiles
(a first in the RL world) so that subs can be used to provide covert
air defense for convoys. The SeaSquid Sub also has an enlarged
sonar array under the nose, towed sonar and side scan sonar.
The sub features an enclosed prop making this sub one of
the quietest in the world.
Propulsion:
(1) Nuclear Reactor w/ Fuel Cell and Battery backup
(1) Ducted Prop.
Armament
(24) Vertical launch missile cells (Can accomadate ASROCs, Harpoon or tomahawk, SM-2 missiles.)
[8] torpedo tubes (compatible with MK46, Shkval torpedos and mines.)
Misc. Specs.
Length: 350 feet
Beam: 40 feet
Max Speed: 35 knots (submerged)
Crusing Speed: 20 knots ("silent" speed)
Crush Depth: 1800ft
Aircraft: 1 helicopter, AH-220, AH-1Z or SH-65A (included, please specify)
Crew: 12 Officers, 4 Warrant Officers, 120 Enlisted
Cost is $1.1billion
