Monsieur Grimwald,

My apologies for the late response, but we were busy confirming several facts before we formulated our reply. In addition, one of our technicians had to seek medical attention after the text of your post blinded them. Regardless, allow me to respond to your requests in the order that you put them forward.

• The acquisition of a Lucullus-class Liner should be of no issue, and according to reports there are several currently in refit at Sarcelles Shipping Facility that are available for purchase by the public.
  
  
• While we appreciate your desire to visit Gallic shipyards to observe our construction practices, Rambouillet is a Navy operated facility and practices there are highly classified. Fortunately, your engineers are welcome to visit Haute-Seine in Picardy, and the shipwrights there are second to none in the civilian sector of Gallic shipbuilding.
  
  
• Access to the Montreuil is open to the public, but the vast majority of the ship's internals have been stripped out to convert it into a museum, and I have doubts that you would be able to learn much of value from inspecting such an old ship. You're welcome to send a delegation there regardless, of course, the museum staff is always happy to educate Sirians about the history of Gallia.
  

If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out here at your convenience.

Regards,
Duke
Director of External Operations
