Nor do you have the economy. Wait till your bigger with a much stronger economy. Cause right now even if someone would help you with a space exploration and stuff your economy wouldnt be able to support the program.

I have a powerhouse economy. If you would provide me with a share of the weapons I would produce.

hmm, i will soonly be acquiring myself spaceship yards myself, however i do not believe a nation as small as your own could possibly sustain such a massive working of civil and military engineering.

lead rain has obtained one ship, curantly under constrution. it is not a problem to mantain them my region is chiping in the costs.

now, please, let me laugh at your region. Your biggest nation is a 377 million nation, the others are either just starting or around 90 million.

even combined you couldn't support a large-scale space program.

I suggest you wait till your region's total population is at least around 2 billion before making a leap to becoming a full space-tech nation/region.

Ofcourse starting off with some little ships is fine, just don't start whining when some other space-tech nation comes over and decides he doesn't like you.

Pardon me? Two billion? I am one of the more powerful nations that controls a good portion of space. You just need to know what youneed to do in order to gain respect and power. It can be done young.

Lead Rain, we can lease you a shipyard that is a older and is still in pretty good condition. It has unfortunately gotten out of date with the rest of the Indra Prime Space Fleet and it was not worth spending a hundred billion refurbishing it when we could build a complete new one for a third of that amount. If youre interested, let me know.

I was talking about his region as a whole, if they want to get a good spaceforce they should be a lot bigger, since they'd be using a lot of money on coordinating efforts from the different nations.

at least i won't have to waste billions of USD into research for FTL drives and such, there is an RP planned involving my nation, Taka's nation and the machine god Dozle (as well as a bunch of other people, but they're not that interesting to me). I'll be acquiring lots of space tech in that RP and make the leap to a full space-tech nation

The dry dock is approximately 2.5 km long and can handle virtually any design spacecraft. Its modular assembly allows for oddly shaped vessels to berth inside the dock for repairs, overhauls, or retrofits. It also has an exterior set of docking latches for simple maintenance such as refueling, rearming, crew transfers, etc.

Indra Prime

We'll lease it to you for 250 million USD per year.
