The KDS-Houshou, the latest retrofitted Naval Forces light carrier, was deployed to the Nagano front after months of tests and flight operations training. Fielding a small wing of fighter and bomber craft, and operating within a small frontline taskforce, the Hoshou mission is to serve as a mobile operations base for KNF strike units, blurring the defensive lines of the Blood Dragon forces providing a force projection not common in standard KNF operations.
