“Welcome to Imperial Praetonian Shipyards! Imperial Praetonian Shipyards was set up over a century ago and has been supplying the NS world with highly advanced, well though out and effective ships ever since. Sales at IPS have totalled more than $20 trillion with several powerful nations choosing to outfit their navies with Imperial Praetonian Ships. Now, however, the large nationalized parent company of IPS, Imperial Praetonian Ordinance, has come to the realisation that several of the older classes were no longer as effective as they were, and needed to be replaced by faster, larger, more heavily armoured and more advanced classes. Therefore, Imperial Praetonian Shipyards has ceased offering the older ships (located here (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=332455)) for retail, and has instead replaced them with a whole new line of ships currently in mass production for the Imperial Praetonian Navy. We hope that they meet with your nation’s specifications. If there is anything you believe could be added or improved, then your comments will be most welcome.”

Parent Shipyards and Satellite Shipyards

The main Imperial Praetonian Shipyards' complex is located in Praefele, the second largest city in Praetonia and base of the Imperial Praetonian Home and Grand Expeditionary Fleets. This complex employs more than 1,000,000 people in the city of Praefele and the surrounding area, contributes 1% of the nation's GDP and supports the vast majority of the Praefelian economy.

The second largest Imperial Praetonian Shipyards facility is located in Neo-Praetonia. The complex there contributes roughly 5% of the colonial economy, and employs 650,000 people. This complex has drydock capacity for the construction of three superdreadnaughts and hundreds of smaller warships.

Subsidiary shipyards are located in Ottoman Khaif, employing large numbers of both local people and Praetonian engineers, specialists and managerial staff. Other facilities which produce components for Imperial Praetonian Shipyards and its subsidiaries are located throughout Praetonia, Neo-Praetonia and Segmentum Praetonialis, including a radar factory in Praeton istelf.

Imperial Praetonian Weaponry

Ballista VLS

The Ballista VLS system is the standard missile launch platform for ships built by the Imperial Praetonian Shipyards. It comes in a single size, with each cell able to hold a single standard missile (such as the Lance, Javelin, or Yakhont) or 2 small missiles (such as the Harpoon or Discus). The upgraded Ballista VLS which is now included in all Praetonian ships and ships sold by IPS includes an electromagnetic assist launch system, capable of accelerating missiles to high speeds as they leave their cells. The system is capable of firing almost all RL and NS missiles, although most will require sabots to be fitted in order to fit the cells, and very large missiles such as the Russian Shipwreck can only be fired from large canisters. The missiles manufactured by the Imperial Praetonian Shipyards, and those in use with the Praetonian Navy, are as follows:

‘Lance II’ Standard Anti-Ship Missile

Length: 8m
Diameter: 0.7m
Weight: 2,986kg
Speed: Mach 3.25 Supercruise, Mach 4.2 Terminal
Range: 302km
Warhead: 310kg High-Explosive Delayed/Contact Fuse / 15 - 500 kT Nuclear
Guidance: Missile remotely guided by ship radar and GPS; ‘Simplex’ Guidance radar for course adjustments, redundancy and ordinance avoidance; 'Biplex' IR Guidance System.
Decoys: Chaff and flares; ECCM (Electronic Counter Counter Measure) system.
Unit Cost: $2,350,000
Production Rights Cost: $3,500,000,000

The Lance missile carries an explosive warhead much larger than that of a Harpoon missile, a greater distance in a shorter time, but more importantly it carries advanced electronics systems making the missile more accurate and less likely to be shot down by CIWS fire. The Lance missile, therefore, has considerable armour piercing capabilities and can destroy or at least damage a wide array of targets, including cruisers and battleships.

The upgraded Lance is equipped with a RAMjet engine, making the missile capable of much creater speeds, and therefore making it much harder to shoot down. The flight II version is slightly longer than the previous version of the Lance and has a small tungsten tip allowing it to bury itself some way into the armour of heavily protected vessels before exploding, or smash straight through the thin skin of unarmoured vessels before exploding inside.

‘Javelin’ Standard anti-Aircraft Missile

Length: 8m
Diameter: 0.7cm
Weight: 1525kg
Speed: Mach 4.5 Supercruise, Mach 5.7 Terminal
Range: 365km
Warhead: 62kg High-Explosive Fragmentation / 1 - 15 kT Nuclear
Guidance: Missile remotely guided by ship radar; ‘Simplex’ Guidance radar for course adjustments and redundancy; 'Biplex' IR Guidance System
Unit Cost: $1,820,000
Production Rights Cost: $1,750,000,000

The Javelin anti-aircraft missile is designed to be able to destroy enemy aircraft before they can threaten the ship itself, or, if acting as an anti-air picket, the fleet it is protecting. Although the missile carries the same advanced guidance systems as the Lance anti-ship missile, today’s aircraft can move at speeds up to mach 4 and carry advanced countermeasure systems so that a hit cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, the missile carries a large HE fragmentation warhead that can assure a kill on any aircraft within an 18m sphere.

The new and upgraded Javelin missile features RAMjet technology, propelling the missile to immense speeds, increasing the likelihood of a hit and removing the ability of ultra-advance aircraft to outrun it. It can also be used in a long range anti-missile role or, when equipped with a small nuclear warhead, be used to destroy aircraft and missile swarms threatening a major fleet deployment.

‘Pole-axe’ Standard Land Attack Missile

Length: 8m
Diameter: 0.7cm
Weight: 2,025kg
Speed: Mach 1.8 Supercruise, Mach 2.6 Terminal
Range: 800km
Warhead: 520kg High-Explosive
Guidance: GPS Guidance
Decoys: Chaff and flares; ECCM.
Unit Cost: $850,000
Production Rights Cost: $2,200,000,000

The Pole-axe Land Attack Missile is a large, powerful cruise missile. Compared to the Tomahawk, it carries a larger warhead at a faster speed using a turbojet engine. The missile is equipped with highly accurate GPS guidance and countermeasures which reduce the likelihood of it being shot down. The missile can be equipped with a variety of warheads up to a mas of 520kg, including nuclear, fragmentation, cluster, bunker-busting and straight HE.

‘Spear’ Standard anti-Ship / anti-Submarine Torpedo

Length: 6.54m
Diameter: 56.5cm
Weight: 2081kg
Speed: 48knts
Range: 30km
Warhead: 424kg High-Explosive Shaped Charge
Guidance: Missile remotely guided by ship sonar; DETAR Guidance sonar for course adjustments, redundancy and countermeasure detection;
Decoys: Acoustic Guidance and advanced computer systems for countermeasure avoidance
Unit Cost: $2,000,000
Production Rights Cost: $4,000,000,000

The Spear torpedo is propelled by a pump-jet engine which gives it top-notch endurance at a high speed. This, coupled with advanced electronics and guidance hardware, makes this a hard torpedo to fool with countermeasures. Even if the torpedo does fail to hit it’s target, it’s large warhead can damage or even destroy vessels within 150m of the blast.

‘Battleaxe’ LORSOM (LOng Range Stand-Off Missile)

Length: 16m
Diameter: 1.2m
Weight: 2800kg
Speed: Mach 2.6 Supercruise, Mach 2.8 Terminal (Sea-skimming shaped charge); Mach 2.6 Supercruise, Mach 6.4 Terminal (Sea-skimming / Vertical attack Kinetic Energy)
Range: 1,240km
Warhead: 686kg High-Explosive Shaped Charge / none (1m solid tungsten / DU penetrator)
Guidance and Countermeasures: Missile remotely guided by ship radar or GPS; ‘Simplex’ Guidance radar for course adjustments and redundancy
Unit Cost: $5,000,000
Production Rights Cost: $4,500,000,000

The Battleaxe is quite simply the most advanced missile ever developed in Praetonia. It was decided to develop such a missile after seeing the strength displayed by the Hamptonian FastFalcon missile, which was capable of striking with considerable accuracy from well outside the range of all Praetonian missiles. The Battleaxe has an incredibly high endurance at a fast speed, with the huge terminal velocity of the Kinetic Energy variant provided by a SCRAMjet engine activated only a few kilometers from the target.

The missile is also designed to fill the role of the Halberd ABatM, by providing substantial anti-battleships power (in the form of it’s Kinetic Kill variant) without sacrificing speed, range or ability to avoid CIWS and similar. It is, however, a huge missile which is only carried in VLS cells by superdreadnaughts and only carried at all by battlecruisers and larger.

‘Halberd’ anti-Battleship Missile

Length: 16m
Diameter: 1.2m
Weight: 5,281kg
Speed: Mach 2.6 Supercruise
Range: 386km
Warhead: 2,872kg High-Explosive Fragmentation
Guidance and Countermeasures: Missile remotely guided by ship radar; ‘Simplex’ Guidance radar for course adjustments, redundancy and countermeasure avoidance; advanced computer for countermeasure avoidance; ECCM systems
Unit Cost: $5,200,000
Production Rights Cost: $475,000,000

The huge Halberd anti-Battleship missile is our answer to the BBGs that shrug off Harpoons like small arms fire. The Halberd is big and expensive, but it gets the job done. It is equipped with the most powerful solid fuel engine we can fit into a missile and the most advanced countermeasure avoidance technology we have. However, the main difference between this and any other missile is its massive 2,872kg Penetrative Explosive warhead which forms a shaped charge on impact, channeling the full force of the explosion directly into the armoured plate.

The Halberd is also the most expensive missile ever produced by Imperial Praetonian Shipyards but is easily capable of inflicting serious damage to a superdreadnaught and crippling a battleship in a single hit. Even more so, the upgraded Halberd features RAMjet technology, making even this 5 ton behemoth faster than a Harpoon missile.

‘Discus’ Surface to Air Anti-Missile (SAAM)

Length: 4m
Diameter: 0.7cm
Weight: 365kg
Speed: Mach 4.8 Hypercruise, Mach 6.2 Terminal
Range: 38km
Warhead: 26kg High-Explosive Fragmentation
Guidance and Countermeasures: Missile Internally Guided by 'Biplex MkIII' IR seeker and radar feed from fleet
Unit Cost: $1,000,000
Production Rights Cost: $5,000,000,000

The small and incredibly fast Discus Missile was developed to provide a fleet-wide anti-missile defense system. With a powerful RAMjet assisted solid fuel rocket, advanced course adjustment and targetting systems and a small, powerful fragmentation warhead the Discus has an excellent chance of destroying even the most advanced of missiles.

‘Testudo’ CIWS

The Testudo Close In Weapon System is the obligatory ‘last ditch’ defence weapon. It is important to note that this is not a single weapon, but a system which consists of countermeasures, small missile launchers and, of course, a gun that fires inanely fast.

The countermeasures aspect of the Testudo system is the first line of missile defence. It includes decoy launchers and various ECM (Electronic CounterMeasure) systems, including radar jammers and guidance system scramblers. The former can destroy the capability of a missile to manoeuvre, and the latter can literally scramble the guidance system, resulting in fairly unpredictable effects which could knock the missile off course.

The piece of equipment that CIWS is famed for, however, is the gun. The Testudo gun does not disappoint, capable of firing 5,000 rounds of 35mm ammunition per minute from each of the two guns, which is aimed and fired automatically by radar. The gun can work just as effectively against low flying planes and provides a good deterrent against low flying bombing raids.

Coupled with the gun is the Close In Missile System (CIMS), which consists of a battery of around sixteen missiles per Testudo gun. Each missile is only around fifty centimetres long, but contains all standard missile systems (solid fuel motor, on-board guidance etc) and a 2kg warhead. Although a much smaller number of missiles can be put out than shells, the missiles are guided and are therefore more likely to score a hit.

The upgraded Testudo system features uplink systems to any Discus missile systems the ship carries, and also a link up to all other Testudo equipped ships in the fleet, allowing the fleet to co-ordinate its anti-missile effort, leading to a complex and integrated network of missile defence systems throughout the fleet, making for one of the best anti-missile systems available in the world.

The Pegasus Class Trimaran Helicopter Assault Carrier is a lengthened and altered version of the Lion Class Cruiser. It is capable of carrying a large number of helicopters for use in landing marines and also as a large platform for deploying large numbers of ASW helicopters. In this was it can act in a small task force to take lightly defended ground targets or it can provide wide-scale ASW protection on a battlefleet level.

The ship fills an excellent niche missed out by many rival shipbuilders and navies. The vessel is used extensively in the Praetonian Navy’s rapid-reaction forces and battlefleets for defending a wide area against submarines, and also in submarine-hunting squadrons employed around vital ports such as Praeton and Praefele.

The Omega Class Battleship is one of the only ships to have been continued from its original production run with the previous incarnation of IPS. The ship has, however, had a major overhaul, with the torpedo tubes being removed and replaced with increased VLS ASROC capability for anti-submarine work. The aviation facilities have been moved to the outrigger hulls to free up room for an additional turret of 20" guns, allowing for a better distribution of guns now in triple turrets. This means that a single shell to a turret can no longer knock out a third of the ship's gun armament. The vessel has also been lengthened, and a considerable extra number of VLS cells have been added.

This vessel is now viewed by the Praetonian Navy has a Light or Sub-Dreadnaught, due to its size and considerable gun armament. It is not nearly as large as the Imperial or Freedom Class vessels currently employed by the Praetonian Navy, nor is it as large as numerous proposals for a pocket-dreadnaught mounting 25” guns. It is, however, very large by battleship standards and capable of destroying a conventional battleship with relative ease.

The Haven Class Trimaran Battleship project was begun when the Imperial Navy came to the realisation that the Omega Class was not only over-armed for the general use it was originally to be put to, but it was also therefore a needless expense. The Omega Class has subsequently been reclassified as a Heavy Battleship or Light Dreadnaught, and the Haven Class, a vessel carrying both a heavier armament and stronger armour than the Iowa Class vessel inexplicably still in use in modern navies, has taken its place as the work-horse battleship of the Imperial Praetonian Navy.

The Class is easily capable of taking on copies of the antiquated Iowa Class in use with other navies, and is even capable of matching copies of the Yamato Class, sporting more if smaller guns and heavier and more advanced armour than most other battleships. As all Praetonian Battleships, cruisers and even some Destroyers, its armour is impervious to the inferior exocet and harpoon missiles in service with foreign navies. The vessel is capable of making a good account of itself in almost any circumstance.

Running Costs: $150,000,000 per year

The Peninsular Class Pocket Battle was designed to complement the Omega and Haven Class vessels. Capable of considerable speeds and equally considerable rates of fire with her light ETC guns, the Peninsular Class is capable of fleeing from any ship she cannot outgun. The vessel is also more affordable for use escorting vital convoys, or accompanying smaller fleets that normally would not have the support of a battleship.

The ship is of Scharnhorst lineage, sporting the same calibre, if more advanced, cannon and impressive ballistic protection. The vessel is well-liked in the Imperial Praetonian Navy for its excellent sea-keeping and the brilliant accuracy displayed by the long-barrelled 11” ETCs. The vessel is capable of holding its own in a conventional battleship fight, and is equally capable of withdrawing if the odds begin to turn.

The Vulture Class refit is a major upgrade from the original. Two more banks of 128 cell VLS systems have been added, and increased autonomy has been implemented for ship systems. Most of the freed up space has been used for extra storage, but some has been converted into increased marine barracking. The Vulture Class carries enough missiles to destroy entire fleets of older ships such as those used by the US and Russian navies, and enough to ensure a reasonable number of hits against a NS navy with advanced missile defence systems.

The vessel is also used in the Imperial Praetonian navy in a missile-defence role, being filled with SAAMs to defend against the very attacks that the vessel is also designed to make. The vessel is powerful asset both in defence and offence, and deserves a place in every Praetonian-built navy.

Cost: $3.25bn

Running Costs: $250,000,000 per year

The Eagle Class is a new general surface combatant designed for the Imperial Praetonian navy in the cruiser role. It is large and heavy but it packs a considerable punch both in gun and missile loadout, carries helicopters and is capable of carrying VTOL and some STOVL planes. The ship is also armoured against RL missiles including Exocets and Harpoons and it includes protection against NBC and EMP blasts.

The vessel is designed along unconventional lines, and the result has been rather impressive, if very expensive. Capable of filling any role, the Eagle is an odd-looking ship, but a valuable asset to any fleet, especially smaller flotillas and task forces which require a wide range of abilities from only a small range of ships.

Cost: $5bn

Lion Class Trimaran Medium Cruiser (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v387/Praetonia/Imperial%20Praetonian%20Shipyards/LionClassCruiser2.gif)

Fire Control Radar: GO-83 ‘Simplex’ Phased Array
Propulsion: Two IPO-02 Nuclear Engines, each attached to a single shaft, each with two five bladed propellers
Running Costs: $150,000,000 per year

The Lion Class is a more conventional cruiser, armed with 6” guns along with an array of missiles in multiple VLS sections. The sleek design and powerful nuclear engines give the ship excellent speed for a vessel of her type, and she is well armoured to sustain hits from inferior Harpoon and Exocet missiles across almost all of the hull.

The vessel is capable of acting in a more general role than most vessels, featuring ASW, AAW and ASuW systems in one neat package. The vessel is also equipped with impressive anti-missile systems capable of defending the ship from most enemy threats, including from large-calibre shells. The vessel combines gun and missile armaments to create a powerful overall package.

Running Costs: $100,000,000 per year

The Praefele Class General Purpose Destroyer is designed to meet the requirement for a new general surface combatant for the Praetonian navy capable of engaging airborne, surface and submerged targets. The ship is armoured against Harpoon and Exocet missiles, as well as the secondary and tertiary effects of nuclear weapons (including EMP)

The Praefele is a cramped and costly ship, but this is merely the price paid for one of the most potent weapons packages in the world placed into a relatively small hull. The Praefele has performed exemplarily in service with the Imperial Praetonian Navy, and a Praefele even conducted an entire operation alone by deploying cruise missiles against Hitlerreich. This is the perfect destroyer for any navy.

Running Costs: $75,000,000 per year

The Jupiter Class is the smallest "battlefleet" ship in the Praetonian navy. It is designed to act as a picket ship, and is therefore usually armed with numerous SAAMs, as well as ASROC-style missiles and SAMs. The ship is also the smallest ship produced by IPS to be powered by nuclear means, and a conventional version is under strong consideration.

The Jupiter is also an excellent vessel to be used in a patrol role. It is capable of forming the bulk of a convoy escort, and is equally adept at performing anti-piracy operations in home waters. The Jupiter Class is used extensively in the Praetonian coastguard alone with smaller supporting vessels, and it is also used to protect small islands surrounding Praetonia from attack.

Beam: 21m
Draught: 3.82m
Crew:: 168 Naval; 32 Marines
Displacement: 5,824 tonnes
Speed:: 17knts (cruise); 26knts (max)
Range: 3,500nm at 15knts
Armament:
18x 6"/45 ETC Naval Cannon (port and starboard broadsides in armoured mounts);
4x 76mm/74 Naval Autocannon (for and after in dual turrets);
6x 12.7mm Machineguns (along superstructure in dual turrets);
2x 16 (8x2) cell Ballista VLS (forecastle / bow; General load: SAM; 64 missiles);
2x Testudo CIWS (including gun, light rockets and countermeasure suite)

Surface Search Radar: IPO-82 G ‘MiniCausa’ Active / Passive Phased Array
Fire Control Radar: IPO-83 ‘Simplex’ Phased Array
Sonar: [None]
Propulsion: Two IPO-05 Combined Gas and Diesel (CODLAG), attached to one high-pressure waterjet
Running Costs: $16,000,000 per year

The Orion Class River Monitor was designed to maximise firepower that could be brought to bear against any potential invaders who might seek to take advantage of or cross Praetonian rivers. The vessel is not intended for ship to ship combat, and has its entire main armament in a broadside arrangement in order to ensure as many guns as possible can be fitted into as small a space as possible.

The ship is not seaworthy, and is certainly not intended to be used in the place of frigates or missile boats, but with a healthy complement of SAMs and an impressive complement of guns the Orion is capable of inflicting a deadly blow against any enemy that may seek to cross a river defended by one. A full broadside of 9x 6" guns is enough to make most infantry break and run.

Cost: $320m


Estuary Class Corvette

1x 6"/45 ETC Naval Cannon (forecastle in a single turret);
8x Ballista-C Canisters (forecastle; General load: SSM; 8 missiles);
1x 16 (4x4) cell Ballista-L Short VLS (amidships; General load: SAM; 16 missiles);
6x 21" Torpedo Tubes (for; port / starboard; 24 weapons)
2x Testudo CIWS (including gun, light rockets and countermeasure suite)
Aviation: Space for storing and maintaining a single helicopter.

Fire Control Radar: IPO-83 ‘Simplex’ Phased Array
Sonar: GO-84 'Polax' Bow Mounted and Towed Active / Passive Array Arrays
Propulsion: Two IPO-05 Combined Gas and Diesel (CODLAG), attached to one high-pressure waterjet
Running Costs: $13,000,000 per year

The [i]Estuary Class Corvette is designed to provide a pwoerful anti air, anti-surface and anti-submarine punch in a small, cheap package. The vessel is powerful in itself, but lacks the range for over-seas deployments and so is best suited to patrol and anti-piracy operations.

The vessel is more than a match for anything it is likely to encounter in peace time, and is capable of making a mess of any potential invasion fleet with long-range anti-ship missiles and a powerful naval gun. The vessel is a relatively fast ship, can carry a helicopter and is conventionally powered.

Cost: $260m

Fire Control Radar: IPO-83 ‘SubSimplex’ Phased Array
Sonar: GO-84 'Polax' Bow Mounted and Towed Active / Passive Array Arrays
Propulsion: One IPO-01 Pebblebedded Nuclear Reactor, attached to two high-pressure waterjets
Running Costs: $125,000,000 per year

The Vanguard Class Nuclear Attack Submarine is the first to be designed by Imperial Praetonian Shipyards since the not-so-recent stock renewal. The vessel is a powerful combination of conventional torpedo and more modern missile armament in a neat, fast, maneuverable and stealthy package.

The waterjet engines produce very little noise, and significant noise and magnetic-signature reducing features have been included in the design, along with a less subtle SubCIWS weapon. The submarine is capable of launching both anti-ship missiles at a long range and more deadly 26” torpedoes at a close range, giving it a wide array of abilities which can be used against any target including battlefleets with considerable ASW capabilities.

Cost: $2.5bn


Tower Class SSBN

Length: 154m
Beam: 38m
Draught: 35m
Crew:: 130 Naval; 32 Marines

Range: Limited only by consumables
Armament:
1x 32 (8x4) cell Ballista-S Strategic VLS (amidships; General load: SLBM; 32 missiles);
4x 26” Torpedo Launchers (fore / aft; port / starboard; 24 weapons);
2x SubTestudo (anti-torpedo super-cav 30mm cannon and countermeasures)
Armour: Standard IPO Armour Scheme (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v387/Praetonia/TigerAmourScheme.gif)
105mm (armoured belt);
105mm (general hull);
155mm (reactors and magazines)
Air Search Radar: IPO-82 D ‘SubCausa’ Active / Passive Phased Array
Surface Search Radar: IPO-82 E ‘SubCausa’ Active / Passive Phased Array
Fire Control Radar: IPO-83 ‘SubSimplex’ Phased Array
Sonar: GO-84 'Polax' Bow Mounted and Towed Active / Passive Array Arrays
Propulsion: One IPO-01 Pebblebedded Nuclear Reactor, attached to two high-pressure waterjets
Running Costs: $150,000,000 per year

The Tower Class SSBN was originally designed for use with Praetonian Strategic Command, which has always deployed all of its long-range ballistic missiles in nuclear submarines. Hiding anywhere in the world’s oceans it so chooses, the Tower Class is practically invulnerable either to retaliatory strike or to a “decapitation” first-strike designed to knock out the enemy’s ability to respond.

The Tower Class is not as fast as the Vanguard, but is equally stealthy and well-armed against threats from torpedoes or depth-charges. The vessel is not designed to battle other submarines, but is capable of fighting both on the offense and on the run against enemy submarines. The Tower is a reliable guardian of any nation’s strategic deterrent.

Re: New Order

The Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia would like to purchase the following:

Three (3) Titan-class Trimaran Fleet Carriers

Total Price: $12,000,000,000

Payment will be wired upon confirmation. We are using surplus defense budget funds to make this purchase, as we have $200+ billion in surplus funds that we need to spend. Alternatively, we could use current defense budget funds to make this purchase, but we would prefer to use surplus funds, so that we can get rid of some of it, because it's not doing much but grow. An accurate accounting of these surplus funds can be provided upon request.

Ab shalom,

In spite of the newness of our country, the Republican Navy of Majeristan aims to get started on a positive footing in the world and seeks to begin to purchase ships to defend its coastline. As a result, we would like to begin our navy by purchasing one Estuary-class corvette. Since our economy is not in terrific shape as we have just begun to establish ourselves, we can afford no more at this time.

However, we are impressed with other designs your great country has commissioned and we would like to make use of your great services in the future. We look forward to your response, though we note that you routinely receive large orders. We are willing to wait for the delivery of the ship; we are confident it will be well worth it.

Ab shalom and greetings,

We return once again to the great Imperial Praetonian Shipyards. As you might have read in our military organisation plan, we have chosen you as one of two major defence contractors at which to buttress our naval forces. Rumour throughout the Navy has it that our Coast Guard will look to IPS to furnish its cutter fleet, but before that begins, we would like to purchase one Peninsular-class Trimaran pocket battleship, which we would like to christen the Tikira, in honour of our capital.

Since our economy is far from robust, and as a result, our defence budget is quite limited, we would like to ask if you would permit us to make three equal payments of $1 billion over the next three years until the ship is delivered to us. We are aware that you have received several orders, so we are prepared to wait as long as is necessary for your reply.

May the guiding spirit of Allah smile on your great and prosperous country!

In order to continue our growth as a navy and add more mission capabilities to our forces abroad without having to purchase alot of different classes of ships, we have decided to order:

100 Eagle Class Trimaran Heavy Cruiser's

Also, while our domestic submarines are fully capable, we would rather use their production facilities for other means, thus:

50 Vanguard Class SSNs

The price comes to 625 billion USD.

Thank you,

After the recent conflict in Arabanistan, several of our non-Praetonian frigates were taken down by ballistic missile's. Although we are more than happy with those vessels, we are ordering a replacement force from here, instead. As such:

10 Jupiter Class ASW Frigate's (12.5 billion USD)

Signed,

The Kingdom of Pavilosta shall purchase the production rights to the Lance Anti-Ship missile and and we shall take two Titan class carriers for a grand total of 11.2 billion dollars.

Alright man i need to make a navy from scratch focusing on subs (i don't have any warm water ports), any suggestions on what i should buy from you and in what quantities? Money is of course not a problem.

a slight *bump*

Does Prae still accept orders on V2.0 of this Storefront?

bump for Praetonia

[All orders since I last confirmed should be considered confirmed. I dont have time to answer manage this storefront right now, and havent for quite a while to be honest, so until further notice this is closed.]

That's a damn bad news :(

IC: The Divine Empire of Kreynoria, while seeking to become a major naval power, is hampered by the fact that its fleet is made up of the obsolescent vessels currently in use by the U.S. navy. We seek to modernize our naval forces with the superior vessels and weapons of your design. We would like to purchase the following for a total of $312.025 billion. Half of the total will be wired upon confirmation as down payment, and the rest will be paid when the units are shipped. Thank you.
