Dreadnoughts
Apparition Class Trimerian Dreadnought (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?goto=lastpost&threadid=25)
The very first dreadnought produced by Guffingford Allied Shipyards. Able to match its bigger cousins, armed to the teeth and armoured well enough to confront small fleets. The ship is built around the whole new SNAS, thé standard in naval armoury. Though it has not entered service yet, tests have shown this is a worthy vessel. The only downside is the running cost anually and the production price tag.
Battleships, Battlecruisers
Aasimar Class Trimerian Battlecruiser (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=9)
The Aasimar has proven its worth and durability time and time again. Protected against direct shell and missile impacts because of the high technologically advanced armour scheme designed by Guffingford, the use of the most modern ways of eradicating small threats quickly without too much effort and the economical design of the trimerian ship make this an invaluable part of the Guffingfordii navy, and every mission.
Toryu Class Trimerian Battleship (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=19)
Even though the Toryu hasn't seen much action except for the engagement with Tocrowkia's navy, the Toryu kept its promise of being the strongest ship ever produced in Guffingford. The brutal firepower of the thirty inch monstrosity combined with the missile launchers and anti- systems, this is a floating fortress not to mess with - and to take down. A massive ship, nearly half a mile long can fit right in between the other behemots of the sea, the dreadnaughts.
Dragoon Class All-Purpose Warbarge (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=29)
Now what can be handier than a well armed and armoured ship able to fire highly explosive rounds onto beaches and amidst other ships to cause havoc amd mayham? The Dragoon does just that, and being equipped with some groovy other anti-ship and limited anti-air features, this ship is just one of the lesser battleships of the Guffingfordian fleet. For true comfort in having an aerial lockdown, the Seismar is invaluable.
Destroyers
Belknap Class Trimerian Destroyer (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=10)
What is better than an all-purpose quick reaction destroyer? The Belknap is an old design completely redone by Guffingfordii naval architects, creating a sturdy warship able to withstand medium threats, and is excellent as a supportive vessel in major naval campaigns. The Belknap delivers the extra firepower needed to take down whatever you are facing each and every time. Protected by SNAS, packed with tons of extra features the Belknap appears on every list of naval deployments.
Seasnake Class Destroyer (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=11)
A design sold to Guffingford Allied Shipyards by Intelligent Neighbor's Venom Industries. Robust in design, and deadly to those who do not have an answer to it. Everything you can expect from a destroyer, this is an excellent craft for keeping your national waters safe from smugglers and pirates, or guarding colonial waters.
Field-of-Dreams Class Anti-Satellite Destroyer (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=26)
And here Guffingford presents you the very first ship of the Guffingfordian navy dedicated to hunting down and destroying spy satellites above your sovereign soil. Armed with the newest types of cluster missiles able to have a standard payload, EMP or a tactical warhead, knocking down satellites has never been this easy. Defended satellites? No problem, dummy missiles are also included to let the satellite think something's locked at it: while the satellite wastes its defensive measures you're sitting back and watch how they drop when they're out of options.
Cruisers
Jet Class Anti-Submarine Cruiser (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?postid=46)
What the Seismar means for anti-air warfare, the Jet class is synomym for anti-submarine warfare. Able to defend your fleet from attacks from underneath, or being on the offense to take them down - it's all possible. A recent development but 210 have already been ordered by the Guffingfordii administration. The standard detection suite may seem limited, but in combination with a flagship or a Seismar and a Belkap, little can stop this deadly threesum. Made for medium missions suited for a medium sized battle fleet or supportive in major fleets on large battle scenes - it works amazing.
Frigates
Waveracer Class QRF Frigate (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=13)
Being somewhere fast is a requirement of a sea faring nation. This vessel may lack destructive firepower but the speed and rapid way of deployment make up for this. Stealth functions, quit propulsion create an all-purpose reconnaissance vessel. Excellent for hunting down submarines, while letting the Jet Class take care of them, or scouting to find aircraft, to let the Seismar make short work of them. Combined effort rules in naval warfare.
Seismar Class Anti-Aircraft Frigate (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?postid=47#post47)
The latest vessel from Guffingford. Like the Jet Class, this is a light ship, and works best in a supportive role. Though the Seismar has dedicated detection suites onboard, it's prime task is to hund down and destroy enemy aircraft. Not the best ship to have around when engaged by battleships, it works amazingly well when an enemy relies on carriers as mean of attacking hostile fleets. Can carry the new Rosseau anti-aircraft missile and the standard equipped PAAMS short and medium range missile.
Gulf Class Anti-Ship Frigate (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=24)
Evolving through the stages of development, the Gulf class is the final product of an excellent anti-shipping frigate. Shown in the statistics page, this ship is equipped with the most modern type of radards and other detection suites. Armed with joint Guffingford-Macabee missiles you have a ship which is outstanding in every possible aspect: taking down ships. Now in production for the Guffingfordian navy, this ship is worth every single Gold Standard.
Submarines
Lich Class attack/defence submarine - soon to be released
Corvettes
Keep Class Stealth Patrol Corvette (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=12)
Keeping your national waters safe from pirates and smugglers is good. The Sea Snake may be a better vessel, but an expensive destroyer is sometimes a bit overkill for task like this. The Keep Class keeps your waters clean, tracks down illegal fishers, kills pirates and stops drug smuggling operations dead in its tracks. Limited firepower, limited detection modes, but when a ship like this isn't made for large or medium sized battles, you don't have to complain.

Missiles & Extra's
Shockhound anti-shipping missile (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=14)
A joint Guffingford-Macabee design, this missile is thé standard missile for all regular anti-shipping operations run by the Guffingfordian navy. A Guffingfordian concept design, built to last by The Macabees.
Rosseau anti-aircraft missile (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=15)
A Guffingfordian missile, the Rosseau is a regular anti-aircraft missile suited for long range interception. Due to the simplicity of the design, the price is quite low for missile standards. And the quality? Beyond all standards.
Sledgehammer anti-dreadnaught/anti-carrier missile (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=18)
If you are looking for anti-dreadnaught weaponry instead of launching a part of your nuclear arsenal, this is what you need. Expensive, but every hit has the potential of being a lethal one regardless of the target's armour or countermeasures. Able to slam through multiple layers of thick hardened steel, detonation features enable a controlled or automated explosion.
Countermeasures & Damage Control (http://guff.modernwarstudies.net/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=17)
Damage control and countermeasures features can be installed on every ship, even when not purchased in Guffingford. Updated daily, products improved whenever the oppertunity presents itself; usually weekly. The cost depends on what you want, how much, and where.
