For 1937, the Romanian Navy is planning on continuing its submarine program, with 6 additional Perla Class coastal submarines laid down. This brings Romania up to its treaty quota (6,250 tons).

As well, two destroyers of an improved vr 30 type, called vr 32 are to be laid down, (see below for SS) an additional two more of this class will be laid down once older less useable ships are scrapped to free up tonnage under the Naval Limitations Treaty.

Romania is also looking for someone to build torpedo boats, 8 of them around 800 tons or 10 of around 600 tons. Anyone interested in this contract, please submit designs below. As well, Romania would be interested in ordering 25 MTB's. Should these prove satisfactory, then the winner of this contract can expect continual orders of 25 MTB's for an additional 7 years. Anyone interested in pursuing this contract can submit designs below.

In Q2, Romania will be beginning the Cetetea Alba's sister ship, and is in need of a Class 2 Drydock or Slip to build the ship in. As well, a torpedo cruiser similar to the Polish Conrad is to be laid down in Q4, and Romania will need a Class 2 Drydock or slip for that as well, due to the fact that the Class 2 Drydock Romania currently has will begin upgrading to a Class 3.

One of the things I'm thinking here is that the Wallachia might better benefit from the same 135mm armament as the vr32 you posted here, even if it's just 4x2.

The SAE can offer the Buzzard (LD35) class of light destroyers.

Starting Q3/37 it would be possible to book a type 2 slip in Daressalam.

Bulgaria might be able to offer a D2 option, but I'll have to reschedule something depending on when Romania's looking to start, and how long the project's going to last...

Germany has a couple Type 2 slips and docks that are available for foreign production in 1937/1938.

On Wallachia, I'm inclined to agree with Brockpaine, 135mms vs 110mms would be a worthwhile change.

How are the torpedoes on the Vr32 laid out? I don't think you're going to have enough length on a 120m hull to fit all those turrets and torpedoes on the centerline...

Also, what exactly is Rumania looking for in MTBs?

Two British companies are offering MTBs. Please note that both are flexible to what gun armament you wish to mount. Those listed are representive.

British Power Boats Ltd

BPB-60-2/B (60 Foot Series): 24 tons, 60.25x13.4x2.83ft (18.36x4.1x0.86m), three 600hp Rolls Royce Kestrel VIIN petrol engines, 32.5kts, 490 miles at 32kts, two 21in torpedoes and two twin .661in Vickers HMGs, 11 crew.

Vosper Thornycroft

MTB-72: 45 tons, 72.5x19.5x5.5ft (22.1x5.94x1.68m), three 1,150hp Isotta-Fraschini petrol engines, 44kts, 280 miles at 40kts, two 21in torpedoes and two twin 0.50in HMGs, 12 crew.

Vosper 75 Foot Type: 37 tons, 74.3x16.7x3.3ft (22.63x5.05x1m), two 1,300hp Thornycroft petrol engines, 30kts, 1850-2000 gallons petrol, two 21in torpedoes, two single .661in Vickers HMGs and two single .303in Vickers ‘K’ LMGs, 12 crew.

Belgium just cleared her type 2 dock, and so that is available adjacent to the T3 building your cruiser

All told, by the end of Q4/36 Belgium will have 3 empty type 1 slips, 3 empty type 0 slips, and 1 empty type 2 drydock.

By the end of Q1/37, the type 3 slip will clear as well as King Albert launches.

Belgium will likely use some of them, but I don't know which so things are flexible.

Atlantis can offer the following designs.

Nordmark can offer the use of a type 3 slip and a type 3 dock for the construction of the 2 ships that Romania wishes to build. If you are interested, PM me to discuss a small rate of rent.

Nordmark also offers a new torpedo boat design to fit Romania's requirement.

Construction in Nordmark, or Romania aquiring a construction liscence to build at home are both options open to discussion

My apologies for not replying to this. I've had some RL issues to deal with.

Comments, responses.

Brock/Hrolf, did you gentlemen mean something like this? Although it did lose abit of speed and range, as well as 2 guns.

Hrolf, Your probably right in this case, vr 32 is my attempt to sim competitor to the Bulgarian Heavy Destroyers being built next year, on a hull 70 ft shorter to fit in a class 1. I've reduced the torpedo armament to 8, with likely 4 a side, although this is an area I have no knowledge of (besides bigger and more is likely better). Revised sim below. As too MTB's, something below 100tons, fast, and packing a decent torpedo punch to do a 1905 Port Arthur in Sevastopol if Romania feels she needs too (whistles innocently ).

Everyone Else: Thank you for the designs and offers for dockyard space. I will leave the offer open until Friday and then make a decision then.

On Wallachia, I'd check the length of your armor belt, with fewer gun mounts you might not need it to be as long. You could also change the hull form a bit, going to a 10:1 length to beam ratio, which may save you some strength by lowering the amount of power needed to achieve whatever speed you need.

Germany has it's latest Schnelleboote available if Rumania's interested, it carries 4 21" torpedoes plus assorted light cannon.

Bharat could rent for a modical fee a S3 slip in Q4 1937.

Bharat also offers the following MTB for modical fee also:

The armour belt is made sufficient to cover vitals; steadiness is improved; and the number of shells is raised. I thinned out the armour on the guns because I don't think a mount and hoist will work as well with all that armour; it either needs to become a proper turret/barbette, or it needs thinner armour. Additionally, it gets you a ship with a nice round number for light tonnage and construction!

I have one impertinent question: that BC is very low for a cruiser, should that not be raised a tad bit?

Okay, I've taken your suggestions and here's the revised design.

As well, is anyone interested in selling 54 flying boats (2 squadrons of 18 plus 18 spares in crates) to Romania?

Mexico has 10 Consolidated P2Y and 20 Azcarte Pelicano (Sikorsky S-42 clone) flyingboats available at the moment. Azcarte could probably pop out a few more Pelicanos if neccesary. It's not exacly what you want, but they are available immidietly.

What sort of flying boats is Rumania looking for? What does Rumania want them to be able to do?

Basically a combination of reconnaisance, anti-submarine work, and mine-dropping. In a time of war, these aircraft would be expected to be the eyes of the fleet, seeing as the Romanian Navy doesn't have radar, and won't be acquiring it anytime soon.

Well, Germany has the Do-24 which can serve in all those roles (and as a torpedo bomber as well), along with the newer He-115. The US has the PBY, which can also accomplish those tasks.
