Greetings, gentlemen.

It appears that you are operating Liberty Force ships you don't have license for. A scan of the Liberty Surplus Requistion Center shows no recent inquiries by any DSE contractors into the use of "Defiant" class Gunboat vessels. The restricted cargo transportation and evasive behavior displayed by you is not indicative of you having legally obtained these models, either.

B-32: #1 #2 #3 #4
F-35: #1 #2

I expect a reply detailing where you obtained these vessels and what reasons you think you should be allowed to retain them for. You have 48 hours to respond.

Admiral Polstari, signing off.

Good afternoon. My name is Samuel McCormick, captain of the A-1.Skyraider, and I speak for myself and the Dominator. The captain of the Dominator and I were issued these gunboats for security duty in and around Liberty, and going by the DSE Internal Executables Database, as well as my own personal kill tracker, I'd say we're doing more than a fine job. If there is an issue with DSE) issuing two of their four gunboats to private contractors, that is something you will have to take up with the corporate headquarters, not us.

Greetings, gentlemen.

Mister McCormick, thank you for your response. I will be inquiring along those lines with Deep Space Engineering headquarters. In the meanwhile, I expect all actions taken by yourself and the captain of the Dominator to be in line with Liberty Law, up to and including the transport of restricted cargo. If your associate requires medical assistance he can seek it planetside.

As for the captain of the F-35, you have 27 hours to respond.

Admiral Polstari, signing off.

Hi there.

My divison of the DSE specializes in gate repair and especially gate testing. We've found that the Liberty Gunships were more armored and had more power than the standard civilian and borderworlds gunships and as such we've adopted use of the Defiant to more effectively repair gates. Due to the unknown and possibly cataclysmic events that could unfold if a gate goes bonkers and me and my crew get warped out to the far Omicrons, along with pirates trying to raid our operations, we decided upon the use of the Defiant so that we could be less cautious in our endeavours.

Hope this clears things up.

Greetings, gentlemen.

Mister McCormick, I have confirmed your story with Deep Space Engineering headquarters. As long as they grant you license to operate their vessels, you may do so within the bounds of the law. The right to revoke such privilege lies with Deep Space Engineering or the Republic of Liberty if you violate these terms.

As for the captain of the F-35, your story lacks elements of truth we find necessary to believe you. You are operating Liberty Force miltary equipment without license. You are to submit a 30,000,000 Sirius Credit fine to the account Ferris.Dufresne and surrender your vessel to the nearest military installation. You have 36 hours in which to submit proof of your payment and of the surrender of your misappropriated vessel. Failure to comply will be dealt with in a manner befitting theft of Liberty Government property.

Admiral Polstari, signing off.
