1 Carrier Battlegroup - cost: $26bn
1 Destroyer Squadron - cost: $7bn
Total cost: $33bn

The vessels will be used in the defense of our region and regardless of what your GDP calculator may display, we have the resources to purchase them.

[OOC: Little hint, that kind of approach is not likely to help your cause when it comes to buying ships. Many, if not all of the storefronts on NS use one GDP calculator or another when it comes to figuring out if you can afford to purchase the goods you have requested. It's likely that most of the better run storefronts would also decline an order that size.

If you want to devote a larger percentage of your country's military or overall budget to the navy and/or you want to set up a payment plan, you should make that clear with your first post. If you use a different GDP calculator that gives you the resources to buy that, provide a link to it. But the approach you're taking now isn't going to win you too many friends.]

Green Empire: Such and order will cost you a total of $7bn. This can, if you wish, be paid off over several years. We will not charge interest on this long-term pay off, as we are always eager to help smaller nations to gain a suitable degree of naval strength.

Office of the Director-General

Excalibor: Although your most recent letter was a little blunt for our liking, we understand your position and we are willing to fulfill this (much more reasonable) order for a Carrier Battle Group and a Destroyer Squadron. These together will cost $33bn, a sum that may be paid off over several years and no interest will be levied. I hope these ships serve your navy well and that you will consider us again in future for your naval requirements.

Your ships are currently under construction, however, although we do not doubt your ability to purchase such vessels, we feel the need to enquire as to whether you can afford to support 15 Carrier Battle Groups. These, with their neccessary escorts, are hugely expensive fleets which can greatly strech the budgets of nations far more economically powerful than yours.

08-10-2004, 21:28
The Praebeo Class is designed primarily to refuel Praetonian designed ships, ie those that use the IPS style of nuclear fuel replishment. We do, however, recognise that many nations do not use nuclear fuel as widely as we do in the Praetonian navy, and so we do supply such ships outfitted to carry diesel fuel. If you wish to purchase any such ships for your nation then the cost will be the same as the listed price for the Praebeo.

We hope that you will consider these facts and decide to purchase examples of the Praebeo and, if needed, other IPS ships. We hope that if you chose not to then you will consider us again in future.

Well, I have heard from several Dumpsterdanian Royal Navy captains that we lack serious anti submarine warfare units. If you would be willing to design something for this we would pay big bucks for it.

Oh and we are interested in how EMP depthcharges would function underwater, this is because we are facing an enemy using underwater robotic warfare. Again, if you could design such a thing we would pay big bucks for it.

PS: First part of the money has been wired.

Our product range does feature an ASW optimised frigate, and most of our ships are able to conduct ASW operations with the use of torpedoes and sonar which are fitted. As such, we are not sure what else you wish to purchase from us. Your EMP depth-charge idea is most intriguing, and one that we will be pursuing in the very near future. We think, however, that the design would be much better adapted to use in a torpedo, or in a missile-launched torpedo.

Greetings, Praetonia.

I would like to make an inquiry into my planned purchase of Freedom Superdreadnoughts.

I would like to know Sarzonia's opinion / approval on this. I have stated that I want and need a secure naval vessel that would be very difficult to destroy. This vessel will be used to ferry myself across the seas, as I refuse to use any air based transportation.

Airplanes and "Air Force One" are easily destroyed not just by the enemy, but also by turblence and mechnical failure. However, naval vessels would still remain afloat if their propellers or propulsion fails, unlike aircraft. Also, these Freedom's appear to be difficult to capside during bad weather.

In addition, I would use these vessels in self-defense only to destroy invader fleets, as I will not be using them to invade other nations.

Hope that clears up any doubts you may have about my purchase intentions.

My researchers are currently developing a submarine Helicopter Carrier, based on the work of Japanese Engineers circa 1942. This ‘Privateer’ Class Ambush Carrier meets the following requirements

Privateer Class Nuclear Submarine Carrier

Length: 180m
Beam: 16m
Crew:: 100 Naval
20 Aircrew
25 Marine Boarding Party
Displacement: 19,896 tonnes (submerged)
Speed:: 23knts (average, submerged) 29knts (average, surfaced)
Range: Limited Only by Nuclear Fuel

(using your weapons classes P. This class is compatible with all current PNY weapons and Naval Helicopters)

Armament: 16cell Ballista VLS (mast; AAM, Javelin, 32 missiles); 4x 535mm TT (for, port / starboard; Spear, SubHalberd, SubLance, various other ordinance, 16 weapons); SubTestudo Countermeasures; 4 Phalanx 20mm Autocannon (Split Fore/Aft);
Air Search Radar: GO-82 A ‘Causa’ Active / Passive Phased Array
Surface Search Radar: GO-82 B ‘Causa’ Active / Passive Phased Array
Fire Control Radar: GO-83 ‘Simplex’ Phased Array
Sonar: GO-63 SUBDETAR phased Sonar and towed Sonar array (active / passive)
Propulsion: One GNO-03 Submarine Nuclear Engine, attached to two shafts, each with two five bladed propellers
Running Costs: $90,000,000 per year

The Privateer Class Nuclear Submarine Carrier is a ASW/Ambush (Pirate is such a harsh word) ship. The ability to carry 4 Naval Helicopters or Attack Helicopters balances its large size. Due to its covert nature, the P-class is optimized for covert insertions. In a fleet, it can be used to extend the range of the ASW helicopter net, as it not only carries its own Choppers but it’s helipad is strengthened to allow the landing of even Chinook class transport helos. This could give a fleet the range advantage they need when attempting a landing against a ASM equipped enemy.
It is also useful in the shipping raider department, and as an integral part of a full-scale blockade.


Cost: $3.0bn
(No Aircraft Included)


Although our scientists are brilliant, our shipyards are currently under construction, and even when completed cannot handle such a project. We are currently looking for a shipyard with capacity to build such ships and are willing to sell the rights to the patents and royalties for a production run of 2 ships (can include prototype). After this run, we would be entitled to no special treatment in the purchase of these vessels or any others produced by the shipyards.

And As Always, Negotiations are Acceptable
Armed Mercenaries
23-11-2004, 19:50
The general idea PNY is that our ships are hired out under contract to temporarily augment (not replace) the navies of nations. We make no overt attempts to undercut your market, as our ships cannot become permanent parts of a naval force other than the forces of Armed Mercenaries. Our charter also forbids the leasing of our forces to attack nations with which we have purchase agreements. It is our desire to make Praetonian Shipyards our naval production source. Only by leasing our vessels can we attain the necessary capital to continue to purchase warships.

I am very glad to hear that my request for six Freedom ships has been approved. I am wiring the $750 billion dollars for them, as well as a $25 billion tip. I am enclosing the tip as a gesture of goodwill and in hopes that it will demostrate that I am willing to purchase more Praetonian and Sarzonian products.

I have one request though. I am looking into buying weapon and defense systems for my new navy. I am willing to purchase production rights and licenses so that I can have my engineers look over these systems to see how these systems may be adapted to my navy.

As you may have been aware from a few years ago, my navy is in dire need of modernization. My engineers have been able to produce a special alloy based off a recent acquistion from Schultaria Prime. The alloy is comprised of titanium and kevlar, with some chobam plating.

My new mandate for my navy is that each naval vessel is to employ Sharina's unqiue mobile MFE fusion reactor technology to provide a much more efficient source of energy, while eliminating the dangers of nuclear fission and the waste of fossil fuels.

Despite these developments, my engineers are woefully lacking in defense and weapons research and development other than COIL guns. Any assistance in naval defense and weapons systems would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for reading this message, and taking your time to respond to me.

"The Second Empire wishes to purchase 15 Freedom-class Super Dreadnaughts. Our navy lacks countermeasures against any large battleships, and these Freedom-class vessels will surely make up for that.

Because the purchase is so expensive, we will have to pay in installments. How does $375,000,000,000 per year for five years sound?"

Of course, the Confederacy would not be able to pay this enormus cost upfront, so we wish to pay your Company 15 billion a year, over the next 8 NS years. I hope that you will agree to this preposition, so that the people of our nation may live in an enviroment of security.

From: Commodore Barbara Tucker (ISN-Ret.)
Managing Director, Portland Iron Works
Subject: Fluffywuffy's order

We have received notification that Fluffywuffy has attempted to order 15 Freedom-class superdreadnaughts. We have performed a preliminary analysis of the country's foreign relations background and we are inclined to reject their attempt to order those vessels. We believe they would be a potential threat to some of our Organisation of Maritime Powers allies.

Also, the Governmetn of Shenon would like to establish diplomatic relations with The Praetonian Government we believe that The Shenonian Mines (Nickel, iron, tin, copper) would be a great benefit to Praetonia whereas Praetonia's experince and military capability could help augment our vastly inferior defense forces with training and equipment. We would be willing to establish an embassy and to allow your nation an embassy within our capitol city of Svrere.

The newly formed Armed Republic of Madnestan is willing to fullfil the requirements of her name. Army is in good shape, but as we have just recently reached the coastline - the history of Madnesia is a constant fight about how to reach the sea - and pushed off those rogue tribes living there, we have no naval power what so ever. And yet,we truly need some, as we have now faced a new threat: our young and small merchant navy has been suffering dearly due the Pirates Of The Bloody Sea, who have been constantly attacking it. As our ex-and inport is now based on connections over the sea, it has become clear that those Pirates shall be eliminated before our country can even think about expanding our trade. Still, we are a small and poor nation, and have no experiment about the naval warfare. Therefore, we ask your generous company - with the help of your navy - to give us information and advices about this issue; we need You to

1.Sell us a navy capable of beating those pirates,
2.Train our navy offiscers to fullfil their duties.

Recommendations are welcome, and we wish that You show patience with us on this matter, as we are - if such word is allowed- totally n00bs considering anything that has something to do with navy/sea.

Sincerely wishing that something can be arranged,

Admiral Tamujid, Leader of The Navy (when we have some)
