Edit:  Found my airship numbering was off - I had two sets of A-12 and A-13.  I'm not going to go back and edit my sim reports from 2/17 and 1/18, but suffice to say, there are 3 x T0 and 12 x T1 airships in service at the end of the year.

Edit-edit:  Mis-read terms of a deal with Peru, so had to find $3M - did so out of intel budgets and the drydock construction.
