This may not be the most high performance submarine on the market; it's main comparison being the Russian Romeo. However, as a Diesel-Electric, it is silent and effective. It's hull design attempts, with partial sucess, to maintain the standard boat-shape of older Novikovian Subs, while adding greater streamlining and rounding to improve preformance underwater, with mixed sucess. Limited range and fuel make this boat suited for defensive action in home waters, or for short forrays against shipping in international waters. Effective in it's own regard, this ship makes a good addition to any defensive fleet, particularly for stil growing nations.

Cost: $178.000.000 USD ($171.000.000 USD production cost)

$1.700.000.000 USD for production rights (note: This design may NOT be altered after purchasing the production rights, NOR may it be sold by any foreign power without consent of the Novikovian Government.)


NPM-N SS-01E-2 "Mečúň II" Deisel Electric Sub (Export Model)

Displacement: 1.797 tons (1.975 tons submerged)

Dimensions: 62 meters x 7.2 meters x 5.5 meters

Propulsion: Two Diesel-Electric Motors (Total 4.600 shp), Single Shaft, Five-Bladed Screw

Crew: 49

Sonar: Tamir-5L active, passive hull arrays

Radar: Basic Mushroom Radar (Adapted from MiG-21), SA-13 Tracking Radar, useable at under 30 meters.

Armament: Five 533mm Torpedoe Tubes (Four Forward, One Aft), Provisions for four SA-N-08 Gremlin SAM's mounted in watertight casing against the conning tower.

Stores: Twelve Torpedoes or Fourteen Mines

Endurance: 8.200 km / 800 km submerged / 24,5 km full run

Speed: 21 knots surfaced (15 crusing) / 31 knots submerged (13 crusing)

Maximum Depth: 180 Meters Recomeded, 290 Crush Depth

The major modification to this design is the introduction of a dual-motor system, instead of the single motor in the previous design. This answers the major complaint that Novikov's captains have made, that engine trouble renders the SS-01E-1 Model immobile until the problem is repaired. This new dual-engine design remedies the problem by allowing the boat to move under power of just one engine. These engines also allow for an increase of 400 shp, giving the boat 2 knots more speed surfaced and submerged. The final advantage this boat has over the origional is simply an aditional two SAMs, as well as a better radar system to help targeting.

The cost of this modification, over 600 km in range due to smaller fuel tanks. Slight size variations were also made to the frame, resulting in a slightly weaker build, leading to a lower maximum depth.

Cost: 180.000.000 USD (176.000.000 USD Production Cost)
Production Rights: 1.800.000.000 USD (Same conditions as before)

This represents the first major redesign of Novikov's submarine fleet. Designed over the course of five years, this submarine is a signifigant improvement over the smaller "Mečúň" designs.

Increased range, armament, provisions, detection range, and stealth make this boat fundamentally superior to it's older partners. Incorperating the traditional six-tube design, and making the transition to a complete teardrop-style frame, this boat was actually designed to feel far less "foreign" to captains than the "Mečúň" design did.

The "Meč" has a signifigant advantage in range over most other Diesel-Electrics, giving it the option of striking deeper out to sea and making it an efficent tool for use against hostile merchants as well as marauding raders. An interesting feature is that, because the secondary engine and the primary engines' batteries are seperate, the ship can theoretically run on batteries for an astounding five days, making this boats possible range far greater, though it's speed performance suffers a coresponding drop.

The armament is again the standard 533mm Torpedo, giving it compatability with almost every navy, though these tubes are specially designed to have the dual function of firing conventional torpedoes and the YJ-8 anti-shipping cruse missile. This gives it a deadly touch, particularly when combined with this subs decreased detectability and increased sonar range and clarity.

Price: 285.000.000 USD (275.000.000 USD production cost)
Production Rights: 3.000.000.000 USD



NPM-N SS-M-03E "Božstvo-o-Vojna" Guided Missile Sub (Export Model)

Displacement: 11.887 tons (12.965 tons submerged)

The Areis is the first missile submarine in Novikov's arsenal. Comperable to the Russian Oscar-Class Submarine, it was designed immediately after Novikov's first war with Sevensky, to serve as a deterrant.

Capable of running fast and quiet, this first generation submarine is based around a dual role. With ten torpedoe tubes, it is easily capable of attack conventional shipping and defending itself against numerically superior attackers. it is also capable of attacking enemy targets deep inland using it's Ganat Cruse Missiles, using either conventional or chemical warheads, depending on need.

Price: 670.000.000 USD (650.000.000 USD production cost)
Production Rights: 10.000.000.000 USD

Bumpage. Areis added.

OOC: DL, I'm beginning to like you more each day. Thanks for buying, I hope my subs serve you well.

IC:

Our government would be happy to provide you with the Thirty-Six vessels you have requested. Our factories will work round-the-clock to provide our dear ally Dostanuot Loj with these new weapons and my production managers tell me that we will be able to complete this request in two years.

I also would like to thake this time to offer your government a 60.000.000 USD discount in recognition of the support your people gave Novikov during the recent crisis with Seversky. You have our thanks.

Bumpity

The Goverement of Tocrowkia requests Twelve Areis and Twelve Swordfish II's, please. We will wire the money for the submarines to you.


We are purchasing these subs in order to enhance the Divine Navy.

Sigh. Didn't I make that clear enough. Please RP your requests or I will not process them. You have been warned (again.)

Better?

Then again, I'm not one to complain that much. Tocrowkia, at least put down a payment plan and some kind of reason, it doesn't have to be extensive, just something minor. I do background check, though, so I like to know what's up and why you're buying these.

Sigh again. >_<

IC:

Understanding very little of this request, we have decided to place these weapons on secondary scheduling while our own military development continues. This does not imply that these vessels will be neglected, but rather that a longer time frame is necessary to complete the request. We estimate that these subs can be finished and shipped, unarmed of course, in 5-6 (NS) years. Please wire the funds as soon as possible so that production might begin in a likewise timely fashion.

W. Pripevski.

Bump

Bumpity-Bump.

OOC: Really man, good luck here. Only a few storefronts really get buisness. I've started to use mine more as a refrence for my own military equipment then anything, lol.

Lol. Yep. I probably will too.

Most of the Triancian Naval Community feels that the Earl IV is currently an acceptable submarine for most of Triancia's needs, inculding shipping interdiction, coastal and inland strikes, and mantiance of our Strategic Deterrent. However, recently, there has been a call for more diversity in the Triancian Silent Service, in order to provide better strike power to the RTN, as opposed to a catch-all design.

After a short review process, we are happy to report that the NPM-N SS-02E 'Sabre' has been accepted for the task of coastal patrol and defense. We would like to purchase production rights for this submarine, and wish to ask if the 'Sabre' could accomidate a fuel cell system, as opposed to the standard battery, and the replacement of the SA-N-08 with the FIM-100 'Wraith', produced by our mutual ally, Mekugi. The first boat produced by Triancia will, of course, be the RTS Sabre, SUA-203.

We'd also like to purchase two NPM-N SS-M-03E "Aries', for testing for possible adoption in a deep penetration and strike role.

Admiral Gary E. Howlzer
Commander-in-Chief, Royal Triancian Navy

Orders are confirmed. Expect in two NS years.

[OOC: Okay, to proove to Novikov I do not totally suck at this stuff, and due to the fact I may am going to get involved in a major conflict soon, I'm gonna buy some more subs.]

A telegram was dispatched to Novikov.

Greetings friend and fellow IADF member! The Divine Reich, whom is looking to expand her submarine fleets to aid her in any future conflicts she may endure, and as we are working over time to produce carriers and destroyers, are navy yards are completly filled up right now, so we cannot produce the needed submarines.

So, we would like to purchase the following.

Three Swordfish II models, for a total of 540,000,000

One NPM-N SS-02E "Sabre" Deisel Electric Subs, for a total of: 825,000,000

And finally, One NPM-N SS-M-03E "Areis" Nuclear Missile Sub, for a grand total of: 1495,000,000

Signed,
General Willhelm Reinhard,
1st General of the Reich.

Tocrowkia, sorry about the inactivity and the laziness on my part (well, really it's the not-being-lazy that hurts my posting ability. Girlfriends take a lot of time.) Your order is confirmed.

Oh, yes, and thatn you very much for humoring me and making a good post. I apologize that I am unable to return the favor. I must go.
