The surveying operation in Coronado is going according to plan. Military Arm excursion from SYMI PROTOCOL threshold has brought some uncontemplated yet very welcoming results.

Crayterian forces in Coronado has been distracted from the south side of Coronado and have amassed sizeable defense force at Yuma and haphazardly bolstered the planetary defenses. The substantial presence of mobilized Yellowstone fleet and Bretonian Forces capital ships also suggests that Crayterians have requested support from their sovereigns. In total, they have equivalent of one mobile battlegroup stationed at the Yuma Defensive Grid. While this wasn't really planned, Directorate can see that those ships burning down Crayterian supplies might be beneficious and eventually they won't have a proper supply line to sustain both House and Crayterian forces. This will safeguard our surveys in the Coronado sector.

Overall, their perfomance are lacking. Military Arm doesn't have resources to launch a full-scale operation against that battlegroup but the paramilitaries were doing a great job at destroying most of their fighter wings. We have no confirmation of NATO forces getting reinforcements but if they do - we can continue on constraining them. Technocracy's External Public Relation Teams are preparing agitprom to cause localized political discontent amongst the House and Crayterian population, especially in Bretonia.

About the main survey. While Jericho still has token forces consisting of one battlecruiser with no fighter wings attached and by careful route planning it is easy to avoid detection - appeal to instruction TMA-RI-C-612A for directions how to use local ionization for masking the ship emissions from radars.


The area around Jericho is heavily irradiated, ambient radiation recorded at 1,450 mSv and 2,600 mSv at the south pole, and the planetside levels according to approximations can climb up to 5,400 mSv which renders most of our generally-used screening equipment unusable and direct expeditions exteremely dangerous. The heavy-duty ultra-long wave medium-range scanners, similar to those used in the Alberta surveys, recorded several hotspots of planetside ionization (offset to the center due to interferences) with the highest concetration at the south pole. Whilst we still haven't got the direct evidence of rumored wreck there, the ionization data can suggest that this might be location of said wreckage. Other than than we got crude and distorted scans of the planet surface - we can't use those now but filtering is currently on-going and we will get more results as we survey the planet more.

We will be ready to send reconnaissance drones when we will set up good approach to the site and we will decide, how to counter the heavy ionization.

Continue pinning down the NATO forces at Yuma and thin out their supplies. Direct confortation is inadvised to the sheer amount of stationed ship there and their willingness to use them. Continue monitoring the SYMI threshold and establish perimeter. In case the battlegroup starts moving out, apply the according procedures.

Be pernicious and be impetous, brothers and sisters.
