...Subject: Another Bretonia raid in Kyushu
On return from a Nomads hunt our forces spotted QCRF and Mandalorians forces making a raid in Kyushu system.
All cargo from our task force was immediately given to the destroyer Kurashiki for a safe stop in Hiroshima while other warriors was heading to Kyushu to engage the Bretonians.
Scientists at Kansai Research Station will be happy to receive a full load of cargo and to make essays on it, while Kishiro technicians will adapt the guns to be mounted on our fighters and bombers.
I joined the attack team with my bomber as they was about to jump in Kyushu.
Cmdr. Kazuo was in command of this mission so I formed in, a good target priority list was already planned by him.
Unfortunately during the battle another Mandalorian Gunboat joined enemy forces and the rest of our team apparently missed a target priority change order,
likely our communications was jammed, this battle was hard anyway.
I was the first target of the enemy ordinance firepower and my catamaran soon failed to keep structural integrity, I was forced to eject.
While observing the battle from my pod I received a message from Ambassador Barak about an AFA fighter dispatched to help our warriors, a welcome help.
The destroyer Miyazaki was the next target by the enemy and was destroyed near in a minute or two, a good number of pods joined my try to reach the nearest allied ship with maneuver thrusters.
This again proves how capital ships use should be avoided if not under special circumstances.
The exploration gunboat Heiontousa was then targeted and as an exploration light ship she couldn't suffer heavy fire and did not lasted long, more pods were filling the space around us.
It was then the time for the Chimaeras to hold ground in a now near impossible battle to win, they did not fled and fought valiantly before falling under enemy guns.
My pod was running out of oxigen and I lost my senses, I woke up in the medical bay of the battleship Nagumo some time later.
Ships lost:
Destroyer Miyazaki - Cmdr. Kazuo Sugino
Exploration Gunboat Heiontousa - Lt. Yoshi Sebayai
Catamaran - Adm. Hikaru Sulu
Chimaera - Ens. Tye Matsuo
Chimaera - Ens. Date Masamune
