She might just divert all her resources into building the largest Submarine fleet in WW.

As for future capital ship purchases, if one of the American Standards, the Rs, the Atlas class, or the Japanese Ises goes up for sale, ill make an offer, but likely only for one ship.

Brazil might be able to make use of a small trade protection carrier but I agree with Hrolf the Argentine Veinticinco de Mayo class ships seem like a good fit.

Wow, Atlantis is the number 3 nation for subs? I would have thought others had more!

It is interesting to note Japan has quite a few midget subs that swell the numbers some what.

Of the top couple Japan has loads of mini submarines

Canada has 6 elderly H-class hand-me-downs that I could never find specs for.

... and Atlantis and Russia still have lots of ancient submarines from the 1910s.

Oh god, submarines captured this thread!

You should have tried something. After all, since Canada was part of the CT, it would have been a good thing to know how much sub tonnage you had in use and how much you could still use for subs.

Canada has 6 elderly H-class hand-me-downs that I could never find specs for. Thus, they're in the OrBat but don't have their own entry in the encyclopedia.
