I thought we went over what would go down if shooting starts. The UK player isn't going to start the shooting if the shooting ever starts. Therefore . ..

Need around 20 of them, estimate?

I'll gladly sell my 18 Mig 21's off to whoever wanted after.

360 Million is about what you should expect.[/quote]

I'm down with that, 360mill for 20 F/16 Block 60's.

Who wanted to buy my soviet-era MiGs?

Croatian Airforce MiG-21's, mostly built in the 80's but they where last retrofitted around 2010.

20 of them, i think Baltic Union wanted them.

I don't have the budget to support having more then 15-20 active service air superiority fighters, so I want more bang for my buck, thus the F-16's.

edit: 19, want to keep the checkered show-fighter.

by **Mesrane** » Thu Jul 24, 2014 12:02 am

Indeed. Well as Turkey I think the MiG 21's are a tad to outdated for me. Plus I already have plenty of F-16s so why bother you know?

by **Hobbesistan** » Thu Jul 24, 2014 12:02 am

Also, Ireland just tg'd me about invading cuba.

Croatia, and Ireland invading cuba, lol.

Guess I havn't seen everything.

If you have the capability to support them, sometimes having more fighters > quality of the fighters.

Well I need to show I'm not another Italy since I have no way I fixing my economy that I can see

Croatia's a bit busy ensuring Afghanistan doesent implode after 'murica decided to bail.

Germany/Australia better not bail or ima be forever alone.

Sometimes. But thats not even counting the 50 or so F-4s I also have. Right now I'm in the market for attack helis and APCs. I think I'm good on the air force though. But some heavy bombers might do nicely . . . Hmm . . .

No one touch Russia's Ally Cuba, or else you will see your skies filled by MIRVs of the R-36 Satan ICBMs.

You aren't seriously considering an invasion of Cuba are you? I'm about to do a mega face to palm if you say yes.

by **Hobbesistan** » Thu Jul 24, 2014 12:17 am

I am 999999% sure Ireland does not have anywhere near the military infastructure to invade CUBA.

Some backwater european nation maybe, but Cuba?

Invading cuba would be difficult, even for the U.S

by **Benian Republic** » Thu Jul 24, 2014 12:17 am

Ok I guess all just throw soldiers out into the desert in the middle east

Previously he was considering Iceland. But Iceland is more or less a NATO protecorate. So . . .

Benian why the obsession on territorial expansion? Its the 21st century. Things very rarily work that way anymore.

If you are looking to prove yourself militarily then this would be the only remotely viable option.
