"Yes, I am a Representative of the Russian Ministry of Defense, under the Minister of Defenses Office. You can call me Viktor for now. It seems that Ireland has run into some trouble, now I wont go into our thoughts on this war. However, I will offer Ireland a chance to come out of this a little stronger then before. You see, we have a surplus of military equipment that needs to be refurbished but is currently laying around. We can offer Ireland a once in a life time chance to buy a portion of this equipment. We refurbish it and then send it to you. Now, it isn't the best equipment, but let me tell you inform you that it will suit you for a stepping stone in the right direction. We will sell it at no mark up and more then likely not make a profit. What we want is to build good relationships with a country in trouble.
Without further ado, what we can offer you is equipment for the building of a single division. Regiment by regiment. That equipment is...
T-55AD-1 (Ob'yekt 155AD-1)
ZIL-157K
ZIL-157KV
ZIL-157KD
100 mm field gun M1944 (BS-3)
BM-14MM (2B2R)
Strela-1 9M31M
2K11M1 Krug
SU-100 Tank Destroyer
MT-55
S-200VE "Vega-E" (SA-5b)
BTR-50PK (Ob'yekt 750K)
122 mm howitzer 2A18 (D-30)
MT-LB

Then for air equipment...
MiG-17PM/PFU ("Fresco E")
MiG-17R
MiG-19PML
MiG-19S (NATO - "Farmer-C"; OKB - SM-9/3)
Sukhoi Su-9

Navy...
Project 205mod
Foxtrot-class submarine

"Its a pleasure to meet you, Viktor. Given the current circumstances, the Irish Defense Forces are at the breaking point due to a acute lack of modern equipment, questionable leadership, poor planning and intelligence gathering, and a non existent training program underfunded by our own government. As you can probably already see we can use and will accept any or all the help we can get so this nightmare doesn't become a rule so much as it ought to be a rare exception." He paused taking a moment to enjoy his Darjeeling before continuing the conversation. "Looking at this list, I can't help but grin at the prospects of a better future for our men and women in uniform currently fighting at the front...I shall happily accept this deal."

"Very well...this seems to be quite satisfactory, when will the first shipment arrive?" He said eyeing the list curiously with great interest in a manner akin to a kid in a candy shop.
