We transferred Lovelace Unit 1 from her previous Corvo test shell to a new Condor-class gunship that the Commission... sourced for us.
Ada, diagnostic report.
[ Lovelace Unit 1, designation "Ada" reporting.
Maneuvering thrusters operating at 90% efficiency. Further tuning necessary to compensate for local particulate matter and stellar cloud formations.
Missile guidance systems are performing adequately according to simulated testing. Field test results pending.
Cannon battery dispersal within standard allowances. Further calibrations possible, but would require dedicated facilities.
Navigation systems compensated for extreme density of gravimetric signatures in Tau-23 and dense clouds in Tau-53. Preliminary testing indicates likely success in all Natio Octavarium operational theatres.
Shields capable of compensating for asteroid impact. Captain needs to remember that the Condor is a larger vessel than the Cormorant. ]
