Things are looking more in order for the Revolution each day, working together we have managed several successful battles in the Omegas, and have been keeping the oppressive Rheinland government at bay in the Dresden system. I understand recently that Major Paul Stein had agreed to help construct and command a "Jormungand" Class battleship. These warships are deadly, and while I trust one in your capable hands, there is one thing I might request to really secure a foothold in Dresden. I understand recently a small number of "Tempest" class Carriers have been constructed by your engineers. The Armee would like to know if you would be willing to grant us command over one of these. Of course, members of the Revolutionary Army may stay onboard both as commanding officers and crew members to maintain the ships function. With near total control over Planet tangier I do believe we will be able to effectively supply the necessary resources to construct one. Once planet Tangier is under our complete control we will have these resources to you indefinitely. I hope you consider this given the success we've had in recent months.

"It is always good to hear from our friends in the Red Hessian Army, your dedication towards overthrowing the criminal 'Federal Republic' has long been a source of inspiration for our own Pilots in the field. The deal struck with the good Major provided the Coalition with valuable firepower in our constant struggle against the Corsair scourge that plagues both our peoples, helping to hold the line in Omega-49 and Omega-5.
It gave us valuable time in order for the Coalition Corps of Engineers on Mykolaiv to finish production on the Tempest-Class Carriers, unfortunately these have been found to be quite resource-intensive to construct, at this time while we have the Drydock Space to produce one, our resources are currently occupied with replenishing our reserves which took a beating in the Omegas over the period of the conflict. I am not saying the Coalition cannot be of assistance, far from it, I am saying the Red Hessians should they wish to field one of our vessels will be required to aid our efforts in this so our resources are not diverted from other vital endeavours that preserve the Triumvirate's position across the Omega Regions and beyond.
We would need the Red Hessian Army to deliver vital supplies for the construction of the Tempest, the Corps has thankfully kept a manifest of the supplies required to produce the basic Hull and the Primary Systems of our pride and joy.
If the Hessians can provide the resources our engineers will be able to construct her for the Red Hessian Army to field and operate for their own battle against the Federal Republic.
Signed
Ben Warner, Premier of the Sirius Coalition, Planet Volgograd, Omega-52"
Two of our transport captains have made a total of three successful runs to your
station so far, delivering 12,630 units of Basic Alloy up to this point, to be
used for the first stage of the construction.
I'm sure Mykolaiv staff have already logged the deliveries, but for the sake of
having an easily accessible record for both sides, the logs provided by our
captains for these as well as future deliveries will be stored in the following
channel, which you can access using the listed key:
Our technicians had detected a minor transponder bug on some of the Armee
transports which temporarily disrupted the supply runs, but with the bug fixed
you can expect a steady flow of resources from here on out.
Signed,
Major K. Leitner
Red Hessian Army Oberkommando
The supplies have finally been completely delivered. I'll await your response on the next steps before we acquire the vessel. I trust we will be the ones to name the vessel Ja?

"Our engineers at Mykolaiv have been working hard as the supplies arrived to get the Tempest prepared for our friends in the Red Hessians, they worked long hours and over-time in order to get it fully online and ready for the Hessians to utilize. Once the crew and command officers arrive to take possession you will be cleared to leave New Moscow. As the vessel will operate under the Hessian flag it is only fitting that the Armee provide her a name befitting her.
Fight well Comrades, may she serve the Armee well and for a long time.
PS: The Premier has left a sizable amount of Vodka onboard for the Crew and Command Staff in celebration of the vessel's completion. "
