AOR Replacement & the Joint Support Ship (Merged Threads)

[SeaKingTacco]

There are too many AORs in NATO…said no one, ever.

If I was Federal Fleet and I owned a replenishment ship like Asterix I would lease her to the US navy the same way Omega does with the air refuelers.

If they don't want her she is NATO spec. I'm sure some NATO nation will want her services.

If Federal Fleet tries to push the same contract they hoisted the Canadian Government with, they’ll quickly find minimal customers for a slapdash, heavily used conversion.

Was it a very bad contract?

The slapdash conversion, that was originally contracted for five years was heavily used.

It was used for a further five years.

It is still fulfilling its assigned role.

And apparently still has life in her.

How bad was that contract?

There is a segment in the RCN and RCN adjacent who are very anti Asterix.

Possible, Or they may find they are in high demand, make tons of money and get more oiler ships in their fleet. It's not like the US is adverse to paying top dollar for defense items.

I'm sure when Omega started up many thought they would fail. Their website says they have flown 10,500 missions. Wiki says they have 5 planes. If Federal Fleet can copy that with AOR I'm sure they would be quite happy.
