Guten Abend,

According to our source in upcoming weeks a convoy with general staff of observers will depart from Liberty to Bretonia in order to assess Gallic threat and assist Bretonian Armed Forces. As a political gesture of solidarity, Fleet Admiral David Hale will accompany the staff in order to meet Fleet Admiral Sir James Ralston in Leeds. We believe that the convoy will depart from Virginia, a heavily guarded system containing secret Liberty Navy headquarters, and proceed to Leeds through Kansas and Magellan. We have performed reconnaissance of all these systems and our analysts decided that Kansas is the best choice for an ambush. The goal of the operation will be to intercept the convoy, destroy the flagship with Admiral David Hale on-board, capture high ranking officers that have managed to reach the escape pods and fall back. Admiral David Hale will have to be executed on the spot. Other high ranking officers will be temporarily transported to our base in Magellan and fairly split between the Lane Hackers and das Büro der Marineintelligenz. However, as far as I know, Rheinland has signed a charter securing rights of captured enemy soldiers. Therefore, it might be a better idea to leave captured officers in our hands. They will be questioned using neural pain amplifiers and our latest mania interrogation techniques. We will of course allow your operatives to observe the whole process. As for the IFF transponders, it is up to you whether you prefer to maintain low profile during this operation. However, as we have noticed, your recent operations within Liberty are focused more on a psychological terror than covert operations. Therefore, it might suit your goals better to take the credit for the assassination. Not to mention that refitting your IFF transponders will inevitably extend the preparation phase of the operation. Ultimately, it is your choice. I attach a preliminary tactical plan of the operation. However, I must underline that due to its nature all gathered intelligence including convoy composition and its route are subject to change, and of course we are open for your tactical input.

Schöne große,
Nicole Hunter

Operation Headless Mammoth



Red group (enemy convoy)

4 x Bergelmir - 140-ARKM-N58 Rheinland Bomber

Description

We expect that the Liberty Navy convoy will consist of a single battleship escorted by up to two gunboats and a fighter wing. The convoy will proceed from Virginia to Magellan jumphole. In the meantime a scout wing consisting of at least two light fighters will take its position. Planet Topeka and sun corona will mask its vessels from enemy sensors. When the convoy reaches half of the way between jumpholes, the scout wing will move to intercept. After successful interception, an assault wing, consisting of several bombers and fighters will emerge from Dodge Asteroid Field and engage the convoy. After destruction of the battleship and successful extraction of enemy officers, both assault and scout wings will withdraw to Magellan.
