Fellow Commodores and Admiral Combes, the following report is for your eyes only as the nature of this report is rather sensitive I believe.
Yesterday at 22:10 SMT, we have completed our inventory checks and realised C.F.V. Hemera is missing two CDI-VHHW-73 'Rhea' Primary Turrets, that was scheduled to be replaced. Due to our position and current standing orders within Crayter Fleets in general, we did not want to leave our post and decided to procure two 'BSH-GEN' Primary Turrets from Singapore Shipyard instead, as due to recent tensions, Singapore quartermaster refused to supply T3b IMG Primary Turrets. At 22:25 we have finished the rearmament and un-moored from the station. Just as we gained a few hundred meters distance, we have seen a Valor-class Enclave Dreadnought with the name R.E.S. Renaissance . After the brief, noticeable shock on both our crew and apparently theirs, we have engaged in battle and despite the arguably superior choice of armaments on Renaissance , we have managed to come out alive against the enemy vessel at close range combat. In the process we have taken heavy damage and currently trying to repair as much as we can at the designated safe zone near Minato Harbor. Detailed damage report has already been given to Sabah and once we get at least auxiliary power at a stable condition we will perform an FTL jump to Coronado and call in celestras to tow us.
Audio recording and guncams can be found in the attachments.
