⧫ Inquiry: "Bulwark"-class Explorer

---

It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Please allow me a brief introduction. I am Makoto Yamada, part of Samura Heavy Industries security detail assigned to Shinkaku Station and responsible for the safety of Samura assets traversing the Tau sector. The volatile nature of the Taus requires us to operate with otherwise unusually large security details for convoys and after a recent observation of a few brand new vessels passing by as well as some neural-net time figuring out what they were, I managed to get the green light to reach out to your company.

Samura Heavy Industries is interested in acquiring one (1) of these so-called "Bulwark" Explorers and integrate them into Shinkaku Station's daily operations for a long-term field trial. From what we can tell, the vessel appears most promising to lessen the requirements for security detail and permit our operations a bit more flexibility in the long run. Now, I know how that sounds but this is a golden opportunity for you. I heard bits and all about Samura Execs and if they find liking in the operative gains this acquisition might lead to, they might bulk purchase these vessels from you in the future. Before I forget, I need a price tag too.

We look forward to your opinion.

Signed,
Makoto Yamada
