The GMB Department of Defense has been pressured by the government of Greenmanbry to reduce its budget after Military operating costs soared past the $800 billion dollar mark. The GMB Airforce, after heavy renovations, has decided to place its unwanted planes on the market instead of decomissioning the equipment. These vehicles include:
(120) F-16 Fighting Falcons: - SOLD OUT
The F-16 Fighting Falcons were purchased from a single military contracter and delivered in batches of 20 aircraft per six months to the GMB AF. These planes, once the pride of the GMB AF, became the most frequently used aircrafts in the Airforce's arsenal. Although they have not seen any combat, each has logged thousands of hours patrolling the skies of the Sudan and Chad, as well as the GMB territorial waters in the Red Sea.
Condition: Good
Price: $25,000,000 per aircraft
====================
(120) AV-8B Harriers: - SOLD OUT
The AV-8B Harrier Jump Jets were for more than twenty years the only VTOL aircraft available to the GMB Navy. Recent purchases of several aircraft including the F35 JSF as well as the brand new ARSB F/A-91s have sealed the fate of the AV-8Bs. They are now retiring after decades of service. They never saw combat, and have logged only several hundred hours each.
Condition: Very Good
Price: $28,000,000 per aircraft
====================
(100) A-10 Warthogs: - SOLD OUT
By far the oldest planes in the GMB Airforce, some of the Warthogs never left the ground. In fact, they are now being used as trainer planes, until Military Command decided that the A-10s have now become "outdated and obsolete... more of a liability than an asset". It is for this reason that the AF has decided to put the one hundred A-10s in its inventory on the market.
Condition: Very Good
Price: $8,000,000 per aircraft
====================
(380) F-14D Tomcats: - SOLD OUT
Although very sturdy and reliable planes, the GMB F-14 Tomcats are now obsolete. They still serve their purpose, but Military Command has labelled them as "sitting ducks for the advanced weaponry that is becoming more common on military jets. They can no longer compete with other aircraft and must be disposed of." The F-14 Tomcats have seen some action in Acre Union. 80 are currently stationed in Praetonia, 100 in the Maldives, and 200 in Chad. They are being flown on a weekly basis, and pilots are sad to see them retire.
Condition: Excellent
Price: $32,000,000 per aircraft
====================
(600) F-15E Strike Eagles: - SOLD OUT
The 1200 Eagles in the GMB AF inventory have been replaced over the past decade with over 1250 F-22 Raptors. As such, only 600 are being kept in various basis for patrol missions and as reserves. The AF HQ has been ordered to retire 600 units of this fine aircraft. They are being sold at a more than reasonable price.
Condition: Good
Price: $18,000,000 per aircraft
====================
(1000) MiG 29s: - SOLD OUT
One of the all-time favorites of smaller and less-advanced nations, the MiG 29 still retains the formidable image of the agile and quick fighter air forces have come to admire and depend upon. The inventory has 2000 of these aircraft, purchased at different time periods and from different contractors. But MC has decided that, in order to make room for the future, half of the inventory amount must retire. The MiG 29s have seen the most flights out of all GMB aircraft. Although they have seen combat only rarely, continous exercises meant these planes are still agile and powerful weapons indeed.
Condition: Very Good
Price: $12,000,000 per aircraft
====================
(4000) Apache AH-64As: - SOLD OUT
One of the major vehicles draining the AF's budget is the ageing AH-64A Apache. A very strong, reliable, and versatile aircraft, it requires a lot of funding and care to maintain. It is being replaced by the SAH-24 and the RAH-66 Commanche, which is the main reason these units have been put for sale.
Condition: Excellent
Price: $10,000,000 per aircraft
====================
(4000) AH-1 Cobras: - SOLD OUT
Perfect for scounting and rapid assault, the AF is selling such an enormous amount of Cobras simply because it has too many of them. Lighter choppers, as well as UAVs, are making the role of the Cobras obsolete.
Condition: Excellent
Price: $6,000,000 per aircraft
====================
(450) F-117 Stealth Fighters: - SOLD OUT
The primary surgical strike delivery platform in the GMB Air Force, the F-117 is a very reliable plane when it comes to combat operations. Its stealth characteristics are very useful for ground attack missions. It costs a lot to maintain and its "gold paint" needs to be thoroughly checked before any serious penetration into enemy territory.
Condition: Very Good
Price: $35,000,000 per aircraft
====================
