[color=red]TO ALL DT-UNITS, BE ADVISED, INCOMING MISSION UPDATE.
Dragon's Tooth Delta Squadron have established data-sharing links with the Daumann Heavy Construction Miners and the Gaians of Nature's Last Hope. We have now eyes in both Rheinland and Bretonian territory. This, in addition to the strong presence of Hogosha vessels in Kusari Core Space will cover a lot of grounds. Further cooperation with other organizations remains a possibility. Liberty contact have yet to be established.
However, a favour for a favour, Nature's Last Hope requests data on all transports found smuggling Gaian Wildlife, and the Daumann's request data on any IMG vessel found shipping uncut diamonds. Since we do not possess a list of those vessels who have already acquired a Daumman License, we will assume that no IMG vessel has, and as such all IMG vessels shipping uncut diamonds will be recorded.
These requests are now part of the overall goal and mission of Operation: Global Grid.
Some days ago I just made my normal patrol route in the New Tokyo system. At Narita I got a signal on my scanner which came from the nearby dust field. I closed in for visual identification, and I saw two Interspace and an IMG transport in one group. The interspaces carried uncut diamonds. As I'm informed well, Interspace don't have transportation license from Daumann Heavy Construction for hauling Daumann goods, especially this unique raw material. Because it is not our business, I just left them alone but I made these records:
While I was preparing my ship for active duty I noticed a particular transport carrying Cardamine, I made note of it and continued working on getting my ship ready when I saw him again later with more illegal cargo, the third time I saw him I thankfully was fully prepared and confronted him, he denied any accusations of smuggling even when I had concrete evidence, I also noted the use of an illegal vessel and demanded he either pay the fine for such and leave Kusari or be destroyed, he chose the latter in an attempt to flee.
I chased his ship down, inflicting much damage before he finally could not take the damage from my weapons fire and exploded.
His crimes are now Two Counts of Smuggling, use of an Illegal vessel, refusal to obey a law-enforcement officer and resisting arrest.
During my patrol in the Kyushu system a MV-mover was spotted. I halted his vessel and asked him where he was heading, he claimed he would be selling it all off at Battleship Yamaguchi in the Tau-31 system. But these gaijin traders are driven by greed, their loyalty lies in profit. I requested an intelligence asset to be planted near the Battleship MacDuff and soon enough the same trader was spotted and recorded. During the waiting period another one had also arrived.
Initiated Operation: Burning Arrow, dispatched all units for mission briefing and RV:Point at Stokes Mining Station. Followed latest strategy, split the team up in different wings. All positioned at commerce choke-points. Intercepted various targets in the following systems: New London, Manchester, Leeds, Dublin. Forced enemy transports to either remain on dock, delaying their shipments or perform cargo interdiction. Best hit was the BAF Convoy shipping Military Vehicles to Planet Leeds, target was intercepted and the cargo was destroyed.
During the operation we got attacked by several BAF units including a Battleship. The Yamato was called out to take care of it, which it promptly did. All other hostile targets were destroyed. The deadly Yamato took out another Bretonian Battleship Class Ship as well.
From police patrol at Honshu gate in New Tokyo system there was gained information about Liberty ship hauling Engine compontents. Potencialy to Liberty. Concerning the newest orders I took course of action. As expected, I've encountered the said ship at Shikoku gate in New Tokyo system. Accomplished the proceedure as requested. Ordered civilian what he must do, and what awaits him if he doesn't comply with legal orders. But instead of co-operation he attempted to make a run for it. Result, the vessel has been destroyed at Shikoku system.
BATTLE REPORT 21
- CARGO INTERDICTION, CORE SPACE PATROL
Kempeitai vessels were dispatched to enforce the word of law across Kusari core space and in it's borders. Strike group responded to Outcast raiders threat in form of Susanno gunboat with support of Kitsune bomber and Kusari naval force officer in duty Naguzu Sakytom. Outcast raiders were chased down to Tau 23 hole and pursued into that system were one of them was completely destroyed.
Another part of this report consists of results of patrol duties of Susanno gunboat. 2 shipments of illegal cargo were located. One successfully interdicted, one escaped on Honshu surface with cargo of Gaian Wildlife. Local police and space port security were informed of his arrival, he'll be dealt with.
TO ALL DT-UNITS, BE ADVISED, INCOMING MISSION UPDATE.
With the Junker Congress' decision to comply to the demands of the Kusari House and His Imperial Majesty, Operation: Global Grid has been successful, the deals with the NLH, DHC and The Girl in the Fire accomplished their goals in applying enough pressure to force the Congress into raising the white-flag. As expected, we received next to no data that was requested, the psychological attack proved to be extremely effective.
OPERATION: GLOBAL GRID has hereby been classified as [color=#33CC00]accomplished.
TO ALL DT-UNITS, BE ADVISED, INCOMING MISSION UPDATE.
Persistent and heavy attacks against the perimeter of Yanagi Depot along with constant lockdowns of the Sigma-13 system finally reduced the increased Junker Congress presence in the system. Due to the demands of His Imperial Majesty being met with the Congress this combat operation is no longer in effect. The current shoot-on-sight order against Junker Vessels remain should they be found inside Kusari Space, no that does not include Sigma-13, 17 or 19.
We will no longer actively pursue these targets outside Kusari Space and hopefully we won't have to, if they follow what they have signed.
OPERATION: CLOUD CONTROL has hereby been classified as [color=#33CC00]accomplished.
[color=red]TO ALL DT-UNITS, BE ADVISED, INCOMING NEW MISSION BRIEFING.
As stated previously, new operational directives were under construction.
Now they have arrived.
Due to the recent activity rise of the Bretonian Raiding Party known as the Privateers, who commit commercial strikes behind enemy-lines, our taskforce has been assigned with a dual combative operation. All units under the Kitsune-wing are hereby re-directed to Delta-Five location where they will proceed with Operation: Burning Arrow.
The primary combat assets of our wing will be dedicated to this operation which will entail counter-attacks against any attempts of Privateer raiding inside Kusari Space. We will identify, locate and neutralize all Privateer presence, possible attacks from the Golden Chrysanthemums might occur as these two hostile elements have been found cooperating in the past. On a similar note, the Blood Dragons seem rather hostile towards the Privateers, a relationship I intend to use to my advantage during combat.
Primary combat assets are to report to Kusari Core Space immediately.
