The new Nation of Austro-Arabia is seeking to purchase several small fleet carriers, capable of independent operation. If possible, a company that can also provide aircraft is needed. THe carriers must be able to carrier a small number of Helicopters, in addition to a reasonable number of standard Fighter/Bombers.
Look Forward to Your Responses

Hybalt Defense Industries (http://s6.invisionfree.com/International_Mall/index.php?showforum=77) offers a full range of naval vessels, including six carrier designs, including naval aircraft as well. Our Athios Class Light Carrier are smaller vessels that can operate independently or as part of a small battlegroup.

A smaller aircraft carrier, the Athios benefits from a sleek, stealthy
design. Armed with several suites of missiles and guns, it sports a modest 25
aircraft. Patrol duties fit these carrier extremely well, freeing up your fleet
carriers for more demanding tasks. Perfect for escort duties, protection of
troop transports, or those on a tight budget.

We thank the nation Austro-Arabia for the confidence they have shown in our designs. Your order is confirmed for one Athios Class Light Carrier with aircraft at $3.5 billion. Production at our shipyards has begun, with the estimated wait time until completion to be 1 NS years. At the end of that period, the fully outfitted vessel will be delivered to the nearest port of entry. We wish you the best of luck, and look forward to doing future business.
