Secretary Fitzgerald, I hope this missive finds you well. With the past successes at purchasing military equipment and the collapse of Sparrow, the Kingdom of Poland finds itself at an awkward stage of finding a new purveyor of defense equipment for the 21st Century Modernization of Poland's armed forces. It is why we are reaching out to you now. We are seeking the purchase of several pieces of equipment for the PRAF and the PRN. - 1x Supply-class Fast Combat Support Ship - 4x KC-10 Extender Refueling Airplane - 8x KC-130J Refueler - 4x Ticonderoga-class Missile Cruisers We feel the United States would be the best fit in becoming the primary supplier of Defense Equipment to the Kingdom of Poland and would be willing to sign a contract with the United States of America for you to supply 75% of Poland's equipment for the 21st Century Modernization of Poland's Armed Forces. We are also interested in purchasing certain VTOL aircraft to outfit on the Wasp-class recently purchased from your nation as well as our Dokdo-class vessel purchased from Korea.

Sincerely, Alfons Dwarok Polish Defense Acquisition

I have reviewed the old message that you sent to former Secretary Price. At this time, the United States is willing to offer all of the requested items at the price of $2,350,000,000.00. If this is something that you are willing to accept, please respond with your confirmation of payment to the United States for the stated amount.

Secretary Adams, I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to get a few points of clarification regarding our recent purchase from your nation. First: In regards to the Ticonderoga-class cruiser, before we begin building these ships, we felt it necessary to inquire as to which version of the cruiser you are allowing us to build, if it is the version utilizing the twin VLS system or the older twin-arm Mk 26 Launcher systems. Second: In regards to the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle; we currently do not have the capacity to construct these vehicles, we are not asking for a return of money but we feel we would be remiss if we did not inform you that we would not be building them currently. Third: In regards to the LPL issued to us, we were wondering the time limit for the production, if there is one. We were hoping to break up the construction of the Ticonderogas and the Celestial-classes into at least two blocks in an effort to not overwhelm our ship building industry while they are also constructing civilian ships such as freighters.

Secretary Adams, I am writing you this message in regards to the recent attempt to purchase eleven VTOL aircraft known as the AV-8B Harrier II from your government. It has come to our attention that the intellectual property for this aircraft belongs to the British Government. We are currently not setting blame and merely contributing it to the rather large purchase order we made at the same time. We are requesting that we are reimbursed from decline of the sale that was at no fault of our own. We look forward to doing further business with the United States State Department for future defense sales and will not let this affect our rather unblemished friendship thus far. It was an accident or an oversight and no blame belongs to anyone.

Kind Regards, Wojciech Tomaszewski Minister of National Defense Kingdom of Poland

FROM: Luke Adams, Secretary of State of the United States of America

Mr. Dwarok,

I regret any inconvenience that this has caused your government. Attached to this message is a direct submission to your government from the Treasury for $350,000,000.00. I regret that this oversight occurred.

Platforms capable of having a VLS, let alone platforms that have one by default, are something that the United States rarely exports. I have spoken directly with the President on this matter. He informed me that he and the Secretary of Defense would be comfortable with Poland building the Ticonderoga's with the VLS systems, provided that the attached agreement is signed and agreed to by your government through the proper legal channels. I look forward to hearing what you think about the agreement.

Also, because of the trouble that we previously had regarding this sale, I have modified the LPL so that it is extended and does not expire until December 31st of 2008. I hope that this is acceptable to your government.​

Best regards,

Luke Adams
Secretary of State
