OOC: Does this sound reasonable and correct for the time period?

[Sparta]

1. Did it exist,

2. If not can me and indonesia crack on it some.

[Argentina]

Yes it did exist, proof is here: www.battleships-cruisers.co.uk/argentine_navy.htm

[Indonesia]

1. Existed, but appears to be innapropriate for current time period. According to encyclopedias, it existed till 1956, meaning it was probably built in the 20's-30's

[Sparta]

Then you may use it.

[Indonesia]

Ya i just found another article saying it was built in 1910. Usable.

[Argentina]

Alright, the ship is useable and I will continue with the production. Since it was used until the late 50s, than I am guessing it is a pretty powerful ship...

[Indonesia]

Not powerful. FEASIBLE.
