Crayter Military Reporting Facility

[Omicron]

This is Sokolowski, commanding officer of Phobos, newly constructed Thanatos-class.

At beggining, some tactical data. Warship was equipped according to my prefferences as it was supposed to be my command after being re-introduced to ranks of our military. It houses 4 cerberus turrets and 8 solaris AA which as later proved is lethal even against hostile gunboats. Further extensions will include a docking bay for fighters - unique feature I personally requested to be implemented. While some of its secondary subsystems are not operational - including the hangar bay - performance in combat is at 100%

I have brought this vessel to wartorn system of Tau 23 sneakily from Saba shipyards. This... return to rocky wasteland brought back some memories as I have fought both new and old enemies. I have to report that I engaged and destroyed all enemy targets that I have encountered on first voyage flight of my cruiser.

From beggining, sensors picked up some contacts nearby Tau 31 jumpgate. Upon my arrival, those contacts were confirmed as Gallic trader with an escort of a GRP bomber. Knowing fully I was incapable of actually harming this trader vessel, I demanded it to drop all ore he was carrying anyway. As transport made its way to safety, I removed threat of Gallic corrupted police bomber as it was in my reach.

Second sortie happened with IMG requesting assistance against Outcasts ships of "all sizes". I do not think miners needed my assistance at all so I started to actively seek for any target of opportunity in Tau 37 which resulted in 3 confirmed ships sunk. Single Storta-class and two Tridente-class gunships were exterminated with extreme prejudice, giving real test to my weapons.

After area was declared all clear, Java defense wing called us in to destroy an... Corsair warship? While reasons for its presence is unknown, I have made sure it will pose no more threat to our operations in area. Data matched with Praefect-class cruisers employed mostly in Omega cluster.
