Our government has found the need to upgrade our navy. We want the best you have to offer for each requirment and we have a huge budget surplus at ouur disposal. Our requirments are:
-Replacement for the Oliver Hazard Perry Frigate (40 ships)
-A large modern carrier (27 ships) - contract awarded to Doujin
-Possible replacement for the seawolf or virginia class(is its good 88 ships)
-Possible replacement for helo assult or wasp class ships (96)
Production rights are preferable, will add to the list if need arrises
