Congratulations operatives. Now we can move on to stage two and prepare for Operation Basilisk. For now make sure the devices are secured and locked away aboard Juneau. When the time comes we will transfer them to the required area.
As for Operation Basilisk. I will consult with Fleet Admiral Jones and we will finalize the plans.

Good job. Enjoy some R&R. You deserve it.

Operatives.

With the success of Project Basilisk, I'm going to start shifting attention to a smaller, more focused background project that I initiated halfway through Basilisk's time in the spotlight. This initiative, codenamed 'Lansing', is an attempt to counter Gallia's heavy use of the 'Perilous'-class gunboat that we're more than well aware of by developing a hybrid between the famous 'Archer'-class Siege Cruisers in our force and the reliable 'Defiant'-class gunboats that have supported out warships in numerous engagements.

The data currently surrounding this prototype class of vessel is small in size as is, though the technical layouts and projected personal information has been compiled and will be placed ahead of the packet containing the main centralized portion of this document.

It goes without saying that this project is absolutely top secret, and any information related to this project outside of authorized civilian viewing of tests found outside of the Alaska system, Zone-21 or Zone-63 will be traced. I don't know about you, but I pride myself on my skills at tracing, and anyone found to have leaked information will likely find themselves with a nice prison sentence, among other things.

Project Lansing - 00-1

Project Lansing

Description

Project Lansing is an endeavor to create a hybrid class of vessels unique to the Liberty Navy, in that they would be classed as light destroyers. This new vessel, dubbed the 'Sumner'-class, will be a set of heavy gunboats/light cruisers that would fit into the destroyer category planned ot act as reconnaissance and supporting warships for the Fleet's main heavy hitters.

Armament

The proposed loadout for this vessel would be a large allotment of gunship turrets (about eight to be exact) and a single cruiser-based turret to act as a pseudo main battery. The main selling point of the ship would be the two perpendicularly mounted side-axle torpedo launchers built into the hull which sound be fired at any vessel, structure or body within the missile's range. A very heavily armed warship, and a homage to the old days.

Other Details

So far, this class of vessel is still in planning, and no structural base has been started, although there is a small Defiant-class gunboat (L.N.S. Jasmine Creek [GB-384]) being worked on in the small drydock at Juneau. Project Lansing is planned to finish with three vessels rolling off the line, each with their own division to be assigned to.

The L.N.S. Stanly, planned to be an open warship to be commanded by any ranking officer in the fleet who holds command of cruisers or similar vessels, and is slated to be equipped with heavy ordinance launchers in addition to standard torpedoes.

The L.N.S. Johnston, similarly planned to be an open warship, this vessel was to be designed to more effectively use it's main and secondary batteries for offensive use against gunships and small cruisers.

The L.N.S. Laffey is the third and final planned Sumner-class destroyer slated to be commanded by Commander Fredrick Becton who has served the R&D department faithfully through the turmoil of Project Basilisk. He will be given personal command of the warship, and his Executive Officer, chosen by him, is slated to be Lieutenant Commander Michael J. Prowley, who has himself worked hard to be given the honor.

This is all of the information available on Project Lansing at this moment. More information will be available once the Project is underway.

Murray, out.

This is Operative "Arvestian", I would like to request permission for Operative Driva's old vessel, the R&D Driva, a Grizzly equipped with a cloak. He did a good job back there in Kansas with it.

With Murray left the 5th and the R&D, there is noone in this group except for me, Operative Arvestian. I don't like to lead this one, but I think Operative Driva aka Lt. Cmdr. Taylor could fit into this position. He is a good guy.

Howdy my fellow soldiers, Admirals,

thank you Rear Admiral Reyes.

With me as the new head of the division I hope the 5th will submit some good and needed improvements to the Liberty Military, the Navy and the Army. The way of the R&D will improve. We will take the words "Research" and "Development" seriously.

What does "Research" mean?
Research means that we search for something. For advancement.
What does "Development" mean?
Development means that we found the advancement. And that we build that advancement!
We will, I repeat, WILL search for new ways to improve the Navy, from advanced tactics to new weapons, from hidden ways behind the enemies' lines to the open breakthrough. We will create better tactics, we will build advanced weapons, We will find the hidden way and WE find the weakness of the foe.

There are already some ideas and future projects on my desk which will be discussed and handled very soon. To give you a small insight in some projects:

---Project Destroyer, an advanced fighter
---Project Grasshopper, an advanced ship
---Project Starbeam, and advanced weapon

Did I catched your curiosity?

I'm looking forward to a good cooperation

Signed

Cmdr. Taylor
Commander Ethan Taylor

PS.: A nice picture of me at Houston. Print it out and put it into your purse.

Howdy my fellow soldiers, Admirals,

Within this message I will update the current state of operations and projects. Please look into them to keep updated.

A small explanation: Operations are orders in which you have to work in the public, you need to behave and observe. Technical knowledge is not needed.
Projects are orders in which you have to advance current tech or to develop new tech.

MISSION POST

Attachments

The Priority will be mentioned above the Objective. Check that first, then ask for a project.

Priority: low
Objective: Creating a better gunboat out of the "Condor"
Briefing:

File: Project Hummingbird

Project Hummingbird

The project's goal is to fill the gap between the Defiant-class and the Archer-class so we can have a more manoeuvrable ship that can hit somewhat hard on lighter capital ships. The first task is to choose a ship that can be easily accessed for us. I've chosen the CTE-12400 Condor-class civilian gunboat. I send every important data about the class.

Greetings, Commander!

I was looking through the listed missions and I'm really interested in the Destroyer-I operation.
If you find me capable of doing this as my first mission I respectfully ask you to assign me to the Destroyer-I operation.
Please send further details if you accept my application!

Take care, Artemis out!
