Mission Order by:Vice Admiral Aden Tanner from the 46th|LNS-Adamant
Other operatives present : 46th|LNS-Ashevile, 46th|LNS-Scarlet, 46th|Black_12
Escorted Vessels ("Prizes"):GMG)Imon.Miyako, Vasyl.Krastinov
Systems visited :Colorado, New York
Tentative Plan : While overseeing training of new 46th cruiser LNS-Strike2 and myself at the helm, Vice Admiral Tanner recieved a transmission from GMG Captain Imon.Miyako, as shown below. After this the VA Developed an Armour-Class Mission Plan and ordered me to station LNS-Striker and deploy LNS-Discipline to assist the LNS-Asheville in the task.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: [incoming transmission]
46th|LNS-Adamant: [Message accepted]
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: This is Captain Myiako of the Gas Miners Guild speaking.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: Apologies for interrupting your simulations, but I had a request from my Guild to the Navy.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: As you surely know by now the Kepler system is closed as of now and it makes transporting goods to Liberty more difficult-
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: - than usual. Last run we had an unpleasant encounter with some privateers in Galileo system.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: I would like to request an escort for our part of the Liberty route if possible.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: I would like to note that Helium trade is beneficial for both Liberty and our organisation and we expect the Navy to fulfill-
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: -its duty and protect the trade routes.
46th|LNS-Adamant: This is Admiral Tanner, I can have a fighter and or gunboat escort meet you within liberty space.
46th|LNS-Adamant: Please let me know where you need them to meet, and when and we will be glad to assist.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: A gunboat would be preferable, we would expect a meetpoint at one of the Bends in Galileo.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: The Guild sends their thanks, Admiral.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: We will be leaving Kusari space soon.
46th|LNS-Adamant: Understood, i will arragne a gunboat escort for you soon.
(GMG)Imon.Miyako: Received, Myiako over and out.
Execution : I deployed with the Discipline having Black_12 as a fighter wingman, and we met with Outcast Battleship MNS-Demise near the Jump Gate to Colorado. Despite being pirates and in a Battleship, they managed to avoid us and disappeared. Upon arriving in Colorado we met the prizes to be protected, GMG)Imon.Miyako and a Freelancer transport ID'd as Vasyl.Krastinov. We were then joined by Rear Admiral Van Leer in the LNS-Scarlet and proceeded with Armour-Class Protocol, having the fighter jump back to New York first with the Ashevile while me and the Scarlet remained close to the Prizes.We proceeded with ACP maneuvers, rotating who's on the prize and who's backing Black in scouting until Black and I managed to spot the Outcast Battleship again, this time looking for blood. Leaving nearby Naval pilots to continue the escort, we engagd the pirate with full force.
Outcome : Target was destroyed and mission was a success, despite the prizes proceeding with lighter escort while we all engaged the enemy. It seems the GMG Captain knew they were being targeted and didn't wait for the escort once the main threat was neutralized. Black's ship was disabled but I managed to track his pod and sent him to medical at Fort Bush. In future Armour-Class operations I suggest previous agreement on what ships engage targets and what operatives keep close to the prizes. We did a good job out there, but we were also lucky no other threat arose.
In addition to the logs, I managed to install a ShipcamV2 device on my LNS-Discipline, similar to the one I have on my fighter, and recorded the Operation for feedback and analisys from HC.
46th|LNS-Adamant: GMG is requesting a gunboat meet them at the gallileo JG

46th|LNS-Adamant: i have Oked the request. Meet them there
