We are willing to sell you the thousands of decommissioned ships-of-the-line that currently are beginning to rot in Samtonia's many storage areas....literally, as they are all made of wood. That's right, we kept our ENTIRE navy after we converted to metal hulls. Oh well, never know when you need it.

So make us an offer. Really.

The Fascist Confederacy is willing to rid ourselves ten Gergoss Shipping Vessels. They were used to transport textiles on our Earth Colonies. They're dry-docked for now. They seem to be quite an eye sore. We are willing to freely give them to you. Free of charge. You just have to supply the 'tugs' to get them from the dry dock.

The Royal Navy is willing to sell several long decommissioned ships for very low prices.

40 Johnston Class Supply Ships (http://tncforums.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=WorldTech&action=display&num=1090052443=) @ $100 million each with a 10% discount if you purchase them all.

51 Replenisher Class Oilers (http://tncforums.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=WorldTech&action=display&num=1090052443=) @ $105 million each with a 10% discount if you purchase them all.

29 David D. Porter Class Guided Missile Destroyers (http://tncforums.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=WorldTech&action=display&num=1090052591) @ $200 million each with a 10% discount if you purchase them all.

66 Appomattox Class Heavy Destroyers (http://tncforums.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=WorldTech&action=display&num=1090052591) @ $150 million each with a 10% discount if you purchase them all.

It should be noted that while all these ships are in perfectly sea worthy and, in fact, battle worthy condition, they have seen extensive use and have an average age of 27 years.

Sure, I will take them. Can we fill them with foam before they set sail?

I'll buy all the Oilers and Supply ships. Can I fill them with foam first?

The French Class Anti-Mine Vessel is for you if you want anti-mine warfare.

The French has a 5ft thick hull of Titte (very cheap little heavier than titanium metal, very strong in impact unlike titanium), and is already filled with Cream Foam, or a high tensioned-low weight foam, althoguh this makes up the most cost.

The powerplant is made of two screws, ran off of one FUNNI-Type D1 Diesel Engine System, making this ship hit about 35knots maximum, and 29 cruise.

The over all strength of the ship is found that it can take a direct hit by an Mk 57 and live for the next day in ridding the seas of mines.

As for the crew, there is non needed. It can be controlled by a Helicopter or Command Ship, up to 300nm away. It can also be changed to GPS guided with a few extra bucks (roughly 130 USD).

The costs of one of these comes to 10 million USD (There is nothign really but a hull filled with foam, and the engine room actually found right above the hull in a small box like structure).

Exact information:
Displacement: 500tons
Length: 180.4ft
Beam: 180.9ft
Draught: 8.1ft
Speed,max: 35kts

The French has no protection except its hull and foam, which can let it float even after its' hull is broken.

(I just made this thing up, I should start selling this at my SF)

Both Buczak Nautischtechnik and Stülpner Schiffswerften could manufacture cheap minesweeper vessels.

How many of these can you make for me per month?

What are the sizes of these?

Total comes to $8.42 billion.

The ships are currently located at drydocks in the nation of New Hamptonshire. You may do what you want with them.

I would like the GPS option.

Per NS month? Ohh good lord.

I am guessing if put into 60% production (max for international relations) Angelo and Associates Navy Division could make about say 2?

Per year, look below

Monthly: 2 French Anti-Mine Vessels
Yearly: 25 French Anti-Mine Vessels

I could sell you production rights for a one time price of 10million USD, and you can build as many as you wish.

However, Tittie and Cream Foam might be expensive in your nation...

I am planning on watching my ship production facilites destroyed. Could I build some in your country?

I don't see why not.

You could set up shop at the western section of Portshire, a major Port city, which also is the home of the Angelo and Associates Navy Division and Areosoft Divisions.

Prices would range from say 4million-1.2billion, depending on what you need, want, and will use.

I'll buy the facilities to make 25 per month.
