Ummmm, I find it highly unlikely you have half a million ships in your navy, I doubt you enough people to even serve on them, or outfit them, same goes for the subs. There is no way you have the resources to support one million ships.

I have 60 million people and a very large military budget.

Still, not all of your people can be in the Military, dictatorship or not. That 60 million includes kids, women, elders and other non-military civilains

The crewage for 1,000,000 ships would probably go over 200,000,000, as well.

As a more reasonable number of naval for a sub 100mil nation you should eprhaps be looking at force of about 4-6 nuclear attack submarines such as the seawolf, los Angeles or trafalgar class. In additon you might be able to feild one or 2 missile subs but that would depend heavily on how much funding you are piling in to your navy. for purely defensive operations you would be better served by using a mixed fleet of 2 SSNs and say 6 non nuclear subs or possibly 8-12 non nuclear vessels.

AS for the surface fleet you would be looking at soemthing like:
1 (or very very maybe 2) light VTOL carriers such as the Invincible.
5-10 destroyers
8-16 frigates
10-30 light coastal patrol boats

If you would then require an amphibious power projection capability you would need to make your navy your no1 priority to be able to afford even then investing is this sort of equipment will require sacrafices from your carrier or submarine assets.

2-3 Amphibous assault vessels, either all plain LPDs (landing platform docks) like the Albion or rotterdam class or possible 1 of them a helicopter carrier such as the Oceon clas, bigger vessels such as the american WASP would have to wait a while.
2-3 Logisitcs support vessels or auxiliary landing ships such as the UK Bay class

Yeah, drop about 4 or 5 zeroes in the Seawolfs. Nobody except maybe AMF has enough people for that many...wait...no, not even a 3 billion+ country has enough for that many ships. Do just a tad bit of research on your military. It makes for better RP and more believable.

OK 2 combat ships and 5 nuclear subs sorry I suck with the naval stuff and I'm not very good at listing things. The rest of the stuff are tugboats with a guy who throws grenades.

The Dominion of Sir Peter the Sage gave me a giant school of war herring that can chew through the hull of a boat.

check my storefront for some good tanks....even if they're in the FT storefront, that doesn't make them FT. That's where I put everything that couldn't be invented TODAY, but not necessarily in a few years.
