The asked price for this package is 15 billion USD. Though this price may seem steep, it includes transport costs, initial ammunition supplies, and the training your men will undergo via officers sent from the Mestionian Naval Academy. These five ships will no doubt become the backbone of a Navy for formidable.

Should you feel these arms do not meet your needs, the Mestionian Congress will consider drafting a treaty of mutual defense between our two nations.

We await your response.
