Honourable Admirals,

I am reporting the outcome of the battle that took place yesterday in Omega 3 near planet Sprague.

I was ordered to move to Freeport 1 this day to take part in a joint operation with the Core to strengthen our border aswell as the ties with that organization.
When I arrived at the Freeport there already was a Core strikeforce, and in the next minutes the rest of the group appeared. In the end we had a group consisting of two Battleships, one Destroyer and a bunch of fighters and bombers ( I might have missed a capital vessel, but these were the ones I saw myself ).
Then I got a Corsair capital vessel on my screen, followed by messages about a Corsair and Gaian strikeforce near planet Sprague.
It was decided we had to drive them out, given our good strength in forces. So the whole battlegroup moved to the position where we expected the other fleet.
We met them at that spot and it didnt take long till the first shots were fired. The enemy fleet consisted of two battleships, one cruiser, two gunboats and fighter-, as well as bomberforces. After that I lost the overview over the exact details.
But our capital forces were disabled after a hard fight, which left the fighter forces with little chances to win this battle. Naturally we kept fighting and eventually were able to destroy all of the enemy fighter craft, whereafter we had to retreat for not getting killed.
In the end two of our fighters were the only remaining forces, both very heavily damaged.

In short:
A big Corsair/Gaian battlegroup was fought by a BAF/Core force; We werent able to gain victory but we also decimated them rather heavily so they couldnt endanger Bretonia more.
Surviving forces: Lt.Libby-Jane.Roberts; BAF|Lt.Jacob.McIntire

Yours sincerly,
Jacob McIntire
