FAP Naval Storefront – Now Open for Business

Welcome to the Naval Dockyards of Aligned Planets, Sol Sector. At this time, we are only able to offer a limited range in terms of vessels currently available for international export, but we are in the process of expanding our construction facilities. We estimate to be operating at maximum capacity within two standard years and, as such, can only accept limited orders right now. We will do our best to accommodate you, of course.

With a selection ranging from Aircraft Carriers to Frigates to Patrol Vessels, we hope to have what you are looking for. Please feel free to browse through our selection.

All orders must be placed in the Storefront. Please refer to bottom of Storefront Opening post for pricings.

The Armed Naval Forces of the Republic of Gilead are long over-due for essential maintenace...so instead of footing the cost of refurbishing and refitting an entire Fleet, we are just going to purchase a new one. We found, as we browsed the Naval Yards, that this offered one of the nicest presentations - so here we are.

Using the NSEconomy (http://nseconomy.thirdgeek.com/nseconomy.php?nation=Gileadean) Scale, we have worked out that we have $169 billion to spend.

As such, we would like to order;

7 Imperator Classes at a cost of $31.5 billion
15 Nova Classes at a cost of $37.5 billion
15 Ripon Classes at a cost of $7.5 billion
12 Harrogate Classes at a cost of $4.5 billion
15 York Classes at a cost of $11.25 billion
35 Detector Classes at a cost of $3.5 billion
12 Firefox Classes at a cost of $21.6 billion
10 Whitewolf Classes at a cost of $8.6 billion
10 Blackbear Classes at a cost of $4.25 billion

This gives a pre-discount total of $130.1 billion

We are entitled to a 7.5% discount

We will avoid the 1% Shipping charge by collecting ourselves.

This brings the grand total, according to our estimates, to $120.4 billion which is well within our original budget.

We thank you, and await an estimate for completion of our order.

Correct - please wire the money as soon as possible.

It is going to take time to assemble your order; we anticipate construction to be completed within one standard year (OOC - by tomorrow).

We thank you for shopping with the Federation Naval Storefront.

Bajor VII
28-12-2004, 01:49
Sorry - change of order...

Can we amend our original order to the following :-

5 Detector Class vessels
1 Harrogate Class vessel

This will bring the cost to a round $1 billion
