Introducing: The Royal Siamese Navy!

Since Japan, France, China, the US, Britain, Australia, Canada, the Philippines, and Holland all have navies in the game, we don't want the Siamese getting disappointed. So:
The Phra Ruang, formerly HMS Radiant. She is the second most powerful ship in the Siamese navy.
The Sua-Tayanchuou, a class of two similar destroyers. The are outclassed by modern destroyers, and are equivelent to Japanese Third Class Destroyers.
The Siamese also posses 4 torpedo boats. They are small, slow, lightly armed, and of little combat value.
The pride of the Siamese navy, the armored gunboat Ratanakosingra. Essentially a small coastal monitor, she mounts two six inch guns. While good for shore patrol, don't commit her to a firefight. Convoy escort would be a good duty.
And so the British don't get offended:
HM Submarine X-1. Armed with 5.2in QF guns, she is (in theory) the perfect commerce raider.
Also, we are now allowing the IJN Oiler Notoro to be upgraded (as historically) to a seaplane carrier. Other Shiretoko class oilers are not eligible for this upgrade.
