During a routine convoy escort, KNF fighters escort a convoy of Samuran transports carrying the prototype materials and blueprints for a new model of Antimatter cannon to Research station Nansei. Halfway there, they get ambushed by a wing of five exile fighters - and wrongly assuming them to be a threat to the transports, the KNF engage them, diverting from the transports themselves.
Left without cover, the transports are helpless (or at least want to be) when the Tomozoru, commanded by Admiral Sakuma herself shows up. In a daring move, she brought her ship the long way from Tottori, using the fighters as a diversionary force and uploading a virus into the neural nets of the pre-informed Samuran ships.
Retreating after the virus upload, the Exiles draw the fighter wing even farther away and make a tracking of the vessels impossible. After the crew got dropped off at Shinkaku, the Exiles now have the means to supply themselves again - finally.
Consequences:
The re-acquiring of transport vessels makes further operations inside farther territories (Kusari, most likely) more viable. The new blueprints and materials give them furthermore the ability and the obligation to at least try to construct the weapon.
Losing four fighters is a harsh blow, but was a calculated risk.
The KNF will most likely reinforce their presence in Kyushu now, knowing that the Exiles have become not only active, but also more daring again.
