Project: Akhetaten - Phase One

[Armageddon]

The shipyard was bustling with activity. The frame of the nose section was laid down, the distinctive shape supported by several struts while the frame was being reinforced.

Cross-bracing was being added throughout the nose section. With particular attention being paid to the parts which would be stressed by the combat maneuver system. In a separate dock a scale model of the new drive system had been constructed to verify that real world performance would meet the specifications outlined in the plans.

The armoury was partially complete with the strengthened torpedo bulges that formed part of the citadel around the munitions storage areas being constructed. The majority of the section was still missing it's hull plates and electronics with only the sections where they were required to mount the bulges being completed with the plates installed.

Cobra sat in his Avenger fighter monitoring the construction process. There had been some delays caused by the new drive system initially, but these had been resolved relatively quickly. On his datapad he sent a message to Captain Uhmen to request a meeting to discuss the progress of construction and discuss the main drive system tests.
