President of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, Pham Xuan Do,
CC: Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Sergey Lavrov,

President Xuan Do,

Yes President Xuan Do, the Russian Federation is quite concerned by what is occurring on your border with Thailand and possible clashes between your respective border forces. Could you please give me an overview of the current situation?

Rosobonexport stands ready to begin the immediate production of equipment that's been slated for acquisition by the Vietnamese Border Defence Forces ASAP, simply send the money and we will begin production on the modern equipment that your forces have selected at this very instant. Let me say in no uncertain terms, the Russian Federation fully supports Vietnam, your leadership can take that to the bank.

Rosobonexport is also prepared to begin construction on the equipment that we have selected for your naval infantry and airborne divisions, should their exist a pressing requirement for this equipment, during your great nations current faceoff with the Kingdom of Thailand. As I have said before, simply send the funds and Rosobonexport will begin the production of the previously designated equipment and deliver it to Vietnamese Naval Infantry and Airborne Divisions at once.

Now when it comes to the requested heavy maintenance/overhaul services provided by United Shipbuilding Corporation, USC has put together a proposal for you. Keep in mind that due to previous Russian and Soviet regimes not providing proper maintainence support to the Vietnam People's Navy, United Shipbuilding Corporation is charging just for maintenance/overhaul services and will be making no profit just this once, as we overhaul your Russian made vessels. Again we apologize for the lack of maintenance on these vessels...

United Shipbuilding Corporation Heavy Maintenance/Overhaul Proposal #1​


16 x Slava-class cruisers = $30,000,000 per ship and $480,000,000 overall

6 x Buyan-class 21631 corvettes = $2,500,00 per ship and $15,000,000 overall

3 x Tarantul-class corvettes = Currently formulating a maintainence/overhaul price

6 x Udaloy II-Class Destroyers = $32,000,000 per ship and $186,000,000 overall

2 x Improved Kilo-class submarines = $10,000,000 per ship and $20,000,000 in total

2 x Kuznetsov-class aircraft carriers = $45 per ship and $90,000,000 in total

4 x Sovremennyy-class destroyers = $32,000,000 per ship and $128,000,000 in total

1 x Akula-III (project 971M) = $64,000,000 per ship and $64,000,000 in total

1 x Oscar-class submarine = $66,500,000 per ship and $66,500,000 in total

84 x Losos-class submarines = Currently formulating a maintainence/overhaul price

4 x Triton-2 Midget Submarines = Currently formulating a maintainence/overhaul price

5 x Berezina-Class Replenishment Ship = $2,000,000 per ship and $10,000,000 in total

Total price for heavy maintenance/overhaul = $1,059,500,000​

Next we have the proposal for the landing ships that you've requested, which Rosobonexport has applied a generous discount to.


Rosobonexport Proposal #1​


14x Ivan Gren-class landing ships = $1,950,000,000 per vessel and $27,300,000,000 in total.

8x Ropucha-Class Landing Ship = $350,000,000 per vessel and $2,800,000,000 in total.

28x Alligator-Class Landing Ships - $270,000,000 per vessel and $7,560,000,000

5x Zubr-Class LCAC's = $100,000,000 per LCAC and $500,000,000 in total.

Total value of Rosobonexport Proposal #1 = $38,160,000,000

Next we have the proposal for the transport aircraft and helicopters that you've requested, which Rosobonexport has applied a generous discount to.

Rosobonexport Proposal #2​


36x Ilyushin Il-76MD-90A Strategic Transport Aircraft = $55,000,000 per aircraft and $1,980,000,000 in total.

36x Mil Mi-26T2 Heavy-Lift Helicopters = $23,000,000 per helicopter and $828,000,000 in total.

108x Mil Mi-38 Medium-Lift Helicopters = $18,000,000 per helicopter and $1,944,000,000 in total.

Total Value of Rosobonexport Proposal #2 = $4,752,000,000


These proposals are ready to be completed and production shall begin as soon as the specified funds are transferred to Rosobonexport.

The A-545 and A-762 family of assault rifles are improved variants pe fe AEK-971 and their currently in use with various Russian special forces units. We are of the the opinion that if your armed forces desire a rifle that's a relative of the AEK-971 Assault Rifle, then the A-545 and A-762 Assault Rifles should be seriously considered by your armed forces, as these are much improved variants of the AEK-971 Assault Rifle, which address some the problems that you laid out earlier.

As for the infrastructure development that you have mentioned, this intrigues the Russian Federation greatly and the Russian Federation is extremely interested in helping our international friends and partners develop their nations economics, industries, infrastructure, etc. I am going to pass your message regarding civil development on to one of my colleagues, who will better able to answer the many technical and highly in-depth details which a project of this magnitude needs to answer before it can fo forward. I'll ensure that my minister who handles these matters is in touch with you ASAP and together you can begin to formulate a plan with regard to civil development.

Sincerely,

Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Sergey Lavrov,​

The current situation at the border was instigated when a unit of our Border Defence force while on a border patrol was spotted by the Thai armed forces. Following this they were buzzed by a Thai helicopter which entered our airspace before touching down with a team of Thai soldiers who proceeded to demand the surrender of our troops. Upon refusal a firefight broke out and is ongoing at this moment. The Thai were suspiciously quick to respond with a motorized detachment. We believe they may have been caught in the midst of preparations to attempt a forced border adjustment based on their border conflict with Laos.

We have transferred the funds for the United Shipbuilding Corporation Heavy Maintenance/Overhaul Proposal #1, Rosobonexport Proposal #1, and Rosobonexport Proposal #2. At this time could you put together a final proposal with prices for the Naval infantry Division, Airborne Division, and 14 Border Garrisons. Once those are listed with final prices we can make the transfer for that as well. Also for the ships please let us know which ships you would like to get to work on maintenance for first and we will have them transferred to you.

We would like to go with the A-762 as we have a large surplus of the 7.62×39mm. Does it take the same attachments as the AEK-971? Also what vehicles would you recommend for our Dac Cong units?

I look forward to hearing from your colleagues.

President Xuan Do,

Given what you've told me of the ongoing skirmishes between your border forces and those of the Kingdom of Thailand, it goes without saying that Vietnam has the full diplomatic weight of the Russian Federation, as it would seem that the Kingdom of Thailand is clearly acting as the aggressor in this situation. The Russian Federation is hopeful that diplomacy will prevail and this border dispute can be resolved peacefully, however in the event that hostilities intensify, know that the Russian Federation stands firmly behind Vietnam during this time. Is their any current reason that might exist for the Kingdom of Thailand to risk a border incursion into Laos? Or is this simply completely unprovoked?

The Central Bank of the Russian Federation has received the funds your nation has transferred to United Shipbuilding Corporation for Heavy Maintenance/Overhaul work, as well as for Rosobonexport Proposal #1 and Rosobonexport Proposal #2. I am proud to say all of the requested equipment within Rosobonexport Proposal #1 and Rosobonexport Proposal #2 is currently being produced and United Shipbuilding Corporation is ready to begin the slated heavy maintenance/overhaul work on the designated Russian built warships of the Vietnamess People's Navy.

Given the current hostilities with the Kingdom of Thailand, does the Vietnamese People's Navy wish to decrease the number of vessels that will sail to Russia to begin heavy maintenance/overhaul work at United Shipbuilding Corporations maintenance and repair facilities? If so, United Shipbuilding Corporation would be much more comfortable with our Vietnamess colleagues selecting the vessels for heavy maintenance/overhaul work, given the potential for hostilities within your region. However know that we can accommodate 1 aircraft carrier, 2 cruisers, 4 destroyers, 8 frigates, 16 corvettes, 5 SSN's or SSBN's, and 10 SSK's at one time. So plan your maintenance schedule accordingly and United Shipbuilding Corporation will accommodate whatever warships are sent by the Vietnamese People's Navy.

At present we have to determine the export price for the A-762 Assault Rifle, though we can say with certainty most of the AEK-971 Assault Rifle attachments can be fit to the A-762 Assault Rifle. Are their any attachments in particular that you're concerned about adapting to the A-762?

Given the wide-scope of missions the Dac Cong is asked to partake in, equipping such a unit with vehicles is a bit of a challenge, as they can quite literally face 3 or 4 different challenges in a single day. Therefore, I've made a list of equipment that we feel the Dac Cong must have, while leaving out more specialized equipment which might be useful to the Dac Cong in certain situations, but would mostly be underused. The equipment we have selected is as follows -

BMPT Terminator AFV
Bumerang BTR-16 APC
BTR-MD Rakushka APC
Ural Typhoon 63095 MRAP
VPK-3927 Volk 4x4 Infantry Mobility Vehicle
GAZ-33097 4x4 Logistics Vehicle
AM-1 all-terrain vehicle​

Certainly more equipment exists and we can work together to select and identify such specialized equipment going forward.

Sincerely,

Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Sergey Lavrov,​

We believe that is possibly them trying to assert their territorial claims on Laos, which they were beaten back on decades ago. it is possible that they saw the transition of power here in Vietnam as a moment of weakeness and had been preparing to exploit it. Unfortunately for them they were very wrong about the state of readiness of our military.

We have put forward the funds for all three proposals and await confirmation and for production to start. I also at this time doubt that the Thai navy will be much of a concern, so it will be the best for us to as many as possible so we can move through the current ships. At what date are you going to be able to start on maintenance? Also where would like them sent?

The attachments we are looking at are the GP-34 grenade launcher, 1P63 collimator, 1PN100 4x day/night scope, TGP-A supressor, CLN1-KIR Laser aiming device, 1P78 2.8x scope, and "Shahin" 4x thermal sight. These will all fit with the A-762 yes? Also we are interested in having the RPG-27 for general service on a mass scale.

We would like to split the Dac Cong up into different roles so that they do not end up having to do everything under the sun. Thus we believe that as amphibious/naval commandos they can be split up as counter terrorism, urban defense, sabotage, and recon. Also I am not sure how but one category could be a counter special forces unit, like as they were originally conceived. This would of course require a different mindset for equipment, and some heavy hitting stuff.

President Xuan Do,

Itt would seem that the leadership of the Royal Thai Armed Forces made a grave miscalculation if your assessment of the ongoing border crisis is indeed correct. It seems to me that world opinion has mostly sided with your nations as this crisis has unfolded, would you say that's accurate? Should the Royal Thai Armed Forces escalate the border crisis, the Russian Federation understands that they will need to be taught a lesson, so that they never again feel that they can act in this manner again. I would however advise your nation from disproportionately retaliating against the Kingdom of Thailand, as that would possibly turn would opinion against your nation. However, should the Royal Thai Armed Forces deploy fighter aircraft, helicopters, armoured vehicles, etc, into the area of contention and they engage your forces, the Russian Federation will fully endorse your forces retaliating against these hostile units and destroying them in detail. Though we can not stress enough, that while your forces might need to operate within Thai territory, your nation should refrain from annexing any territory from the Kingdom of Thailand at this time. Though the Thailand certainly deserves a bloody nose over this incident.....

Now to equipping your armed forces and your border forces, production has commenced and some products have even been delivered to your armed forces already, however Rosobonexport misquoted the price of the BTR-80 8x8 APC. The current export price of the basic BTR-80 8x8 APC variant is $1,500,000, while the export price for the far superior BTR-90 8x8 APC stands at $1,800,000. Due to this, I would highly recommend that your border forces adapt the BTR-90 8x8 APC over its older counterpart. Seeing as you've already paid $560,000,000 for the delivery of 700 BTR-80 8x8 APC's at the wrongly quoted unit price of $800,000, Rosobonexport would be happy to adjust your order to 700 BTR-90 8x8 APC's for an additional $700,000,000, which breaks down to $1,000,000 per unit (Taking into account $560,000,000 you have already paid for the 700 BTR-80's). Does this work for Vietnam? If so production can begin immediately upon receiving the transfer of $700,000,000.

Excellent! Maintainence on your vessels can begin immediately in Vladivostok. All submarines and half the warships should be sent to Ship Repair Center "Dalzavod" and the other half of the warships should be sent to the 92nd Order of the Red Banner of Labour Ship Repair Factory, both of which are located in Vladivostok.

I am told that all of the attachments that you've listed for the AEK-971 Assault Rifle are able to be integrated onto the A-762 Assault Rifle as well. Though should you have any difficulties, simply let me know and modifications will be made at no cost to your armed forces. Rosobonexport will gladly provide Vietnam with a Transfer-of-Technology to domestically produce the RPG-27 at $250,000,000. Does that sound reasonable to you?

The Russian Armed Forces agree with splitting up the Dac Cong Commandos into different specialities, as this makes training and equipping them so much easier. As for the counter special forces unit of the Dac Cong that you've mentioned, let me do some research on the ideal equipment for this role, as the equipment must be heavy hitting as you stated, yet light and highly mobile enough to seek out and destroy special forces units in extremely difficult and varied terrain. I'll confer with our experts in this field, our Alpha and Vympel Units, and report back to you on their recommendations.

Additionally Rosobonexport has a few more recommendations for your armed forces, which they've put into a new proposal. While the Russian Navy and Rosobonexport believes that the Vietnamese People's Navy has one of the most powerful fleets of capital ships on earth, your navy troublingly lacks a sufficient number of smaller warships, such as frigates and corvettes, which are absolutely crucial for your fleet, as they provide the outer layer of defense for your capital ships, aircraft carriers, transports, etc. Corvettes are also a cheap and effective way of defending your EEZ, islands, coastline, etc, from a wide-range of threats, without your navy needing to deploy your fleet of capital ships, which is obviously quite costly. The Russian Navy and Rosobonexport also believes that the Vietnam People's Navy should acquire additional SSN's in order for them to serve as both an offensive platform against enemy fleets and as a protective shield for your fleet of capital ships. While the Russian Navy and Rosobonexport also feel strongly that your naval aviation should be expanded to include fixed-wing ASW/MPA Aircraft and Tu-22M3M Supersonic Maritime Strike Aircraft. While the Russian Air Force recommends that your nations air force acquire additional frontline air superiority fighter aircraft, to reinforce the hundred Sukhoi Su-35S Super Flankers that you're currently operating. You will find Rosobonexport's offer below and know that prices will be discounted depending on the size of the order, as per usual.

Rosobonexport Naval Proposal #1

Admiral Gorshkov-Class Stealth Frigate = $750,000,000 per unit


Admiral Grigorovich-class Stealth Frigate = $400,000,000 per unit


Gremyashchiy-Class Stealth Corvette = $200,000,000 per unit


Steregushchiy-Class Stealth Corvette = $200,000,000 per unit.


Karakurt-Class Stealth Missile Corvette = $50,000,000 per unit


Yasen-Class SSGN = $2,000,000,000 per unit


Akula III-Class SSN = $2,000,000,000 per unit

At this time we believe that the majority of nations are neutral on the conflict. However we do not feel the need at this time to annex any Thai territory. Rather as you put it we will simply need to bloody their nose until they come to the table and apologize for the incident.

The BTR-90 8x8 APC will work fine for our requirements and we will be transferring the needed funds shortly.

On both accounts for the RPG-27 and A-762 this sounds reasonable and we will want to include them in the Dac Cong acquirement as well as the addition of the RPG-27 for general use. I believe that a line can be set up at the Z111 factory rather easily. Would you be able to sell us the tooling required in order to ease production?

Also thank you, I look forward to hearing back from you on matters relating to the Dac Cong. Also, I know that this is not official, but while you are at if if you can send a thank you note to any of your advisers that were in the country during the 70s and 60s that would be rather appreciated.

You make a fair point in regards to our navy, as well as aspects to our air force. Thus I think we will want to acquire an air wing of Tupolev Tu-22M3M, Ilyushin Il-38N Sea Dragon, and Sukhoi T-50. How many of the Yasen-Class SSGN would you recommend? I was thinking two forces, one for defending our fleets, and one as a attack squadron. How many frigates and corvettes would you recommend? As we are dealing with Russian ships your naval doctrine would best apply I believe.

President Xuan Do,

Perfect! Our two nations are then of the same mind regarding the best way to handle the Royal Thai Armed Forces overreach into Laos. In conducting your operations in this manner, you'll retain international support, teach the Royal Thai Armed Forces a lesson they won't soon forget, and demonstrate the capabilities and professionalism of your armed forces to the entire world. So I'm glad that you've decided to handle the border crisis in this manner, as opposed to acting with an overly heavy hand and invading Thailand over this dispute.

I'm glad that you're Border Forces are pleased with the BTR-90 8x8 APC, as it's simply an undeniable upgrade over the basic BTR-80 8x8 APC, and will serve your Border Forces very well. The 700 BTR-90 8x8 APC's will begin being produced once the remaining balance for their production of $700,000,000 is transferred to the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.

Excellent! Maintainence on your vessels can begin immediately in Vladivostok. All submarines and half the warships should be sent to Ship Repair Center "Dalzavod" and the other half of the warships should be sent to the 92nd Order of the Red Banner of Labour Ship Repair Factory, both of which are located in Vladivostok.

NPO Bazalt will certainly assist Z111 Factory in setting up an RPG-27 production line within Vietnam. Likewise the Degtyaryov Plant will assist the Z111 Factory in setting up a production line for the A-762 Assault Rifle within Vietnam. A Transfer-of-Technology for the A-762 Assault Rifle will cost $25,000,000 and the requested tooling equipment can be provided for $5,000,000. All of this comes with Russian technical support for Z111 Factory built into the price. So in total you are looking at $280,000,000 for the ToT's for the RPG-27 and A-762 Assault Rifle and the necessary tooling equipment. How does that price sound to you?

I will likely hear back from our Alpha and Vympel Units within the next few days and I will immediately pass on their recommendations to you. Perhaps once your Dac Cong Commandos are fully equipped we could organize a joint-exercise between Alpha, Vympel, and the Dac Cong Commandos?

I really appreciate your kind thanks to our advisers who sacrificed so much to ensure Vietnam and many other nations won their independence during the anti-colonial wars across the globe, which raged from the 1940's until the late 1980's. I will certainly pass on your thanks and gratitude to any of our advisers who served in Vietnam during the 1960's and the 1970's. Now that you mention it though, I think it would be a wonderful experience for both the Vietnamese and Russian Nations, were we to arrange a ceremony within Vietnam to honor the Soviet and possibly the Chinese advisers who served within Vietnam during your nations long struggle for independence and unification. Our government would be more than happy to fly our veterans into Vietnam, where they could reunite with Vietnamese veterans as comrades, and we could hold a joint ceremony in celebration of your nations historic victory over overwhelming odds, defeating two imperialist powers to win your independence and unite your nation. Such a ceremony would not only mean a great deal to the veterans from both of our nations, it would also serve as an excellent opportunity to teach the younger generations about the tremendous sacrifices made by the past generation, while also providing us with an opportunity to stick it to the Americans.

Wonderful! I'm glad you've taken the advice of the Russian Navy and Rusian Air Force, as they feel that this acquisition will close any potential weaknesses and gaps in capability of your air force and navy. Russian Naval Aviation fully supports your decision to acquire an air wing of Ilyushin Il-38N Sea Dragon ASW/MPA Aircraft and Tupolev Tu-22M3M Supersonic Maritime Strike Aircraft. While the Russian Air Force also endorses your decision to acquire an air wing of Sukhoi T-50 Stealth Air Superiority Fighters, as a necessary step to ensure that Vietnam continues to have the most powerful air force within Asia. Official Russian naval doctrine calls for submarines to operate in squadrons of three, therefore the Russian Navy recommends that your navy acquire 6 Yasen-Class SSGN's, as that will give you one full squadron for offensive operations and one full squadron for defensive operations. To ensure the protection of your huge number of capital ships and amphibious landing ships, while also ensuring that your long coastline, vital trade routes, and contested EEZ are protected, the Russian Navy recommends the acquisition of 32 Admiral Grigorovich-class Stealth Frigates, 32 Gremyashchiy-Class Stealth Corvettes, and 40 Karakurt-Class Stealth Missile Corvettes. The Admiral Grigorovich-class Stealth Frigates will be tasked with escorting your capital ships and amphibious landing ships, as well as serving as an ASW and Anti-Aircraft screen for your fleet. While the Gremyashchiy-Class Stealth Corvettes will serve as an ASW/Anti-Aircraft screen for your fleet, while also being utilized to patrol and ensure your control over your EEZ and trade routes. Finally the Karakurt-Class Stealth Missile Corvettes will ensure your control over your EEZ, your trade routes, defend your coastline, and engage in hit-and-run attacks on enemy warships using long-range anti-ship missiles. This is just a brief overview of our naval doctrine and we can go into detail regarding our doctrine during a joint naval exercise perhaps?

Due to the large size of this proposed order, Rosobonexport is offering massive discounts to your nation on the Admiral Grigorovich-class Stealth Frigates, Gremyashchiy-Class Stealth Corvettes, Sukhoi T-50 Stealth Air Superiority Fighters, and the Tupolev Tu-22M3M Supersonic Maritime Strike Aircraft, as we greatly appreciate your nations longstanding relationship with the Russian military industrial complex.

It would be unreasonable for us at this time to do such an over reach into Laos for a border confrontation. Trust me when I say things would have to escalate far before any sort of action like that could ever even be considered being taken. I also doubt it will escalate beyond the current skirmish should our military shine through.

We have made two separate funding transfers for the RPG-27 and A-762 as well as the tooling to make both. In the past when we have aquired DPRs and even in some cases rights to equipment we have struggled with production due to a lack of tooling. In the past back during what the Americans called the Cold War Russia assisted other nations in the creation of tooling. But some nations were able to make their own high quality tooling. I look forward to hearing how this is implemented at the Z111 factory, and I believe with these and the proper tooling they can pick up pace rather nicely. But there is the matter of the other equipment you recommended for the Dac Cong. What is the pricing for that equipment?

I think a joint exercise between your Spetsnaz and our Dac Cong would be a wonderful idea.

I believe a ceremony with both our veterans and your veterans would work very well. I believe the majority of your Veterans came here in the form of anti aircraft crews and experts. Of course, there were others there without a doubt, and I believe that they had a great deal involved with our Dac Cong as well as the hunting down of macv sog. I wouldn't want to endanger anyone however and believe we should be careful in who comes to the ceremony publicly of course. The Americans after all tend to have a long memory when it comes to their major enemies. American tourists after all find it very hard to understand why we do not hate them for what they did in the past. Regardless, yes a celebration is indeed in order and will show our growing friendship to the world. Unless you would prefer it to be a private ceremony?

Very good, I am glad that we paid attention to their recommendations as we have made the transfer of funds for the two proposals. The screen ships and submarines are a much needed addition to our navy and will make deployments of fleet assets more secure. Also, speaking of having the best air force in our area we are interested in the MiG-31 series of aircraft. Specifically the MiG-31BSM, MiG-31BM, and MiG-31K. Also another matter came to my attention recently, one that we should of thought of sooner. There are many places and areas in our area where doing a para drop is not ideal. Deep forests, heavy vegetation, and terrain like that. We would require a device that can clear a landing zone quickly and not in a permanent manner like chemicals would. We believe the use of the Aviation Thermobaric Bomb of Increased Power (ATBIP) can be used in a manner similar to the American BLU-82B/C-130.
