As part of the constant modernization and upgrading efforts that are occurring within the Halberdgardian Navy, the Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia is offering its surplus U.S.-made naval vessels for sale. All these vessels have at least been deployed to theaters of combat, and a few have seen some action. However, all vessels have been kept in excellent condition, with the only damage likely to be strictly cosmetic.

Sales List

Leafanistan -- Entire Stock -- $10,350,000,000

We'll take all of them.

Half the money has been wired, the rest will be wired upon delivery.

Leafy, that ain't fair - you have a navy, a countriy like mine doesn't. :(

Yeah, some of us who are going to be attacked by a crazy general need some ships...


I would like some destroyers and maybe a few subs...

OOC: I need these vessels, my submarine fleet and surface fleet is weak compared to this. Espeically my destroyer gap where I have frigates, but few destroyers. Besides my ships are cheaper.

We'll take all of them.

Half the money has been wired, the rest will be wired upon delivery.

The final cost to you is $10,350,000,000. Receipt of $5,175,000,000 confirmed, and the vessels are shipping. We await the wiring of the remaining $5,175,000,000.

As a side note, you may or may not have noticed that one of our U.S.-made vessels is missing from the list: the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer D.R.H. Valiant. This is because it was decided not to sell the Valiant due to her important role in Halberdgardian history. Therefore, she has instead been decomissioned, and is undergoing refitting before reaching her final resting place at the port of Coronet, where she will serve as a museum piece and tourist attraction. There are also plans to place plaques dedicated to the victims of the attack on the Valiant at the site of the attack, off the Saharistani coast.
