South Dovani snatches Jelbic made, nuclear powered, Yeudicho IRBM packing submarine in "bargain deal"
November 5637
Himmelshtern, Narikaton and Darnussia - A surprise bidder went home with a flashy new toy, courtesy of a bygone hegemonic era of the Jelbic-Yeudi alliance in West Majatra, in last week's first round of a multi-round bidding auction hosted by military command in Himmelshtern. Vetted extensively, according to both Amudim's and the 3rd Point's protocols, the mysterious gentlemen barely made a sweat in snatching it up.
We asked a naval officer on the quality of the submarine:
Quote:Fairly new. This Froahiko-class submarine was manufactured 12 years ago as part of the 3rd Point's continuous procurement deals made with our Jelbic friends in Wiel. [leans in and whispers] We're technically not supposed to re-sell them.
Might be unrelated but it's got a weird electrical hissing sound. All Froahiko-class subs have it. We were told it was a feature, I guess?
Combined with the decade-old rumours that Xsampa had once gotten hold of Yeudicho IRBMs during the Migrant's Pass crisis with Lodamun and before the breakout of the war between Istalia and Pontesi, South Dovani (Hanzen) is now the second Dovanian nation to get their hands on IRBMs.
As is tradition, the deal was complimented with a crate of Yalomit Champagne, fresh from the Amikot Valley near Tel Bira.
