Gentlemen,
I have been dividing my time between the new second Generation XKR fighters, and the Cloaking device factory aboard the new Space Station... a monumental feat of engineering gentlemen.
I have been monitoring the progress of the Cloaking device tests, and I must regret to inform that the planned application of the Type 3 cloaking devices on Coalition Destroyers would be, frankly, a disasterous proposition at this time.
It is my recommendation that we support the efforts of the IND in marketing and selling these devices as they offer little to no tactical advantage when used. In fact, it may even help our forces in the field, being able to... and I use a crude slang term here, "Out tank the opposition."
I have a significant supply of Alien remains onboard the station to commence a viable commercial operation, one that would turn Orkutsk from a simple Penal Gulag, into a fine example of Political reassignment and the triumph of ingenuity for the Katz FIVE-YEAR Plan.
Perhaps some advice from the IND Marketing department on how to sell these devices?
For the Revolution, and the True Ikon!

Dr XiaoBei.
[color=#FFFF00]Evidently you and your science crews are too busy fiddling with non-workable cloaking devices and drinking tea to realise that the good men of my marines are dying by the tonne.
I need workable body armour, penetrating explosive bullets for our rifles and a new Cruiser.
Make it happen. If you need to sell stuff that doesn't work to people that don't need it to finance it - So be it.
