Greetings, the Solielian Armed forces are undergoing major renovations to update our equipment. The Solielian Parliament has set aside US$100 billion for defense spending. We are especially looking for carriers with aircraft, support ships, submarines, and fighters. Packages are appreciated. Please include full stats and technical information. Thank you.

You do not have 100 billion dollars

Referring to the GDP (Gross Domestic Product) Calculator, you have 6% of the sum you stated above:

Some advice:

Think smaller. Go take a look at the Clan Smoke Jaguar storefront and see the Ground Unit and Air packages. You'll notice that CSJ has done all the work of building formations from Brigade upwards for you. His storefronts are excellent.

will take you there.

Also, take the advice offered in your other thread. Aldaria is a good region with some strong allies and that will give you time to grow, allowing you to develop your military in line with your economy.

If all else fails, TG me for terms of a loan.

Or...

LIGHT ARMORED BRIGADE PACKAGE (Brigade Combat Team)
Role: An armor heavy force for operating as part of an amphibious division.
Cost: $925 million standard, $845 million minimum.

LIGHT MECHANIZED INFANTRY BRIGADE PACKAGE (Homogenous)
Role: Homogenous infantry-based landing force as part of an amphibious/marine division.
Cost: $800 million standard,

MECHANIZED AIRBORNE BRIGADE PACKAGE (Homogenous)
Role: Airdroppable homogenous combat unit for making up airborne divisions.
Cost: $800 million standard

MECHANIZED AIRBORNE BRIGADE PACKAGE (Brigade Combat Team)
Role: Infantry heavy airborne unit with some armored support.
Cost: $815 million standard

Any of the above will get the guy some armored vehicles and, as part of the deal, an armory for the infantry element. Each financial year, he can probably afford to add another brigade or so, depending on economic performace, so he's be well on the way to building a division.

You know, I ought to speak to CSJ about working on a commission basis.

He can take out an 100 billion loan from the First HP Bank & Trust. The interest rate is only a modest 6% per year.

Although the Kelanthian Arms Conglomerate does not offer any package deals currently, if there are specific units needed to fill empty spots (or if you are in need of any other types of military vehicles), please feel free to check our storefront for high-quality modern-tech weapons.

AFFS has a Naval package storefront?

Ooooo...dang it! I find this out three days after completing this year's Naval procurement!

I'll go tag it, just in case.
