Comm ID: Nicole Prower Recipient: 5th Fleet High Command Subject: Dreadnoughts and Fighters
Greetings Command,
During the beginning of today's patrol, I received word of two Outcast warships roaming New York, however these ships were never found. However, one Outcast dreadnought was found within threatening proximity of the Pennsylvania jump anomaly. Myself, alongside Forlorn|-Elena,Voigt, and Yuna~Sato engaged the warship after it entered Pennsylvania, however it seemed taking the fight into the asteroid field proved to be fatal for the warship, as it's demise came shortly after exiting the field. The two pilots were paid their bounty on the craft as it was unclear who fired the final blow.
Following this ordeal, Cadet Denton joined the squadron in space, where we met another Outcast Dreadnought just outside Planet Erie, though the vessel seemed to be heavily damaged from weapons fire from Gettysburg and the defense grid. Lieutenant Watson, Cadet Denton, Yuna~Sato, and myself engaged the craft, delivering the final blows.
To finish off this patrol, I brought the crew of the Madison out for the rounds, where we met Admiral Sader and Commander Blake in the field. Receiving urgent reports of a Coalition pilot, my crew and I responded as quickly as possible. Upon my arrival, a Lane Hacker had entered the fray. The Coalition pilot seemed more than happy to engage in battle with the Hacker, to which Admiral Sader and I stood down and allowed them their duel.
However, during the latter stages of the battle, a loud-mouthed Freelancer mentioned how they'd have more power against the Admiral and my warship together than alone. This caused the Coalition pilot to disengage and escape, fleeing the scene. The Hacker was not so fortunate as he was brought out of cruise in time and engaged by Admiral Sader, with the Madisons missiles on standby. After a lengthy engagement and brief chase, the order was given and our ordnance was let loose. The first volley suffered a malfunction which is being corrected now, but the second was on target. The escape pod made it out, but the vessel was scrapped by two LGM-14 missiles. Proudly to say, the vessel's first confirmed kill.
