Greetings Command,
Below is a report on the progress of works on the LNS-Vindictive
Vessel - LNS-Vindicive, Liberty Assault Battlecruiser
Commission Date - 09-15-817
Current status – Refit
Operational Status – Reserve, 5th Fleet
Report on operational status and refit 08-08-827
Phase 1 - Complete 08-08-827
New capital class scanner suites have been installed and the required cabling has been run to the CIC. Crew members have been trained on the usage of the newer systems and initial readiness trials have been completed.
The hull audit has now been completed with two main points of concern being identified.
Several non-critical areas are currently depressurised due to previous battle damage
The reinforced areas near the 'Mortar' turret mounts are showing signs of micro fractures due to general wear and tear
As part of Phase 2 of works the following plans have been made
To address point one:
Hull plates in the affected areas will be removed and replaced with new hull plating material. The internal structure which the hull plates attach to in these areas will also be inspected and reinforced if necessary.
To address point two:
The compartments around the 'Mortar' class cannons will be depressurised and all hull plates removed. Additional reinforcement struts will be added to this area to prevent further unexpected wear. The materials used will be in line with current Liberty Assault Battle Cruiser specifications. Any struts with micro fractures will also be replaced. All hull panels in these areas will be replaced.
With Regards,
Commander Lucius Hopkins,
Commanding Officer – LNS Vindictive
