Chapter 1169: Expansion of the Iberian Empire Part II

Immediately after declaring war against the Sultanate of Morocco, Ghazi mobilized the Iberian Army to march south. Due to the generosity of their allies, the Iberian Navy was able to field enough transports to effectively ship their soldiers across the Strait of Gibraltar, as well as a few old corvettes to protect them. 

While the German navy had begun to field nuclear-powered supercarriers and submarines, as well as guided missile cruisers and destroyers. The rest of the world was severely lacking in terms of naval technology.

Only those nations close to the Reich were able to purchase semi-modern brown water navies designed entirely to protect their maritime borders. These ships consisted almost entirely of old retrofitted Honoria class corvettes, as well as river patrol boats. Both of which had been replaced in the German Coast Guard by the new and improved Littoral Combat Ships, and the more modern patrol boats.
