Leviathan,

The mystery deepens! I may fancy some guesses as to this undisclosed location, and the identity of this unnamed third party host, though I might best keep them to myself. My team will have no objections to heightened security measures, those were implied from the start by the nature of the project.

I will preempt my many questions with agreement to the terms as laid out, so if the answers will become obvious by your response to this, they may be superfluous.
But I will give a brief listing regardless.

• Are we working in a facility with proper drydocks sized to accommodate the vessel, or is this a situation of a capital vessel moored to a shaky asteroid tether? This will be relevant as with the description of the necessary work, which I will get to momentarily, heavy equipment may need to be brought in if machinery to maneuver large component segments around the craft are not available at the site.
  
• Per your report, much of the work to be done will be replacement of superstructure and paneling, or in other words, the main mass of the vessel. I cannot give a full assessment until we have actually laid eyes upon it, but as we are speaking of a situation suggesting the craft has suffered abrasive degradation due to combat and extended travel, we will need to establish what your baseline restoration standards are to be. Or in other words, how close to cosmetic perfection we will be working towards.
  With the requirement for high mass replacement, we are looking at bulk shipments of alloys and paneling. The nature of your mystery location will be highly critical for estimation of the ease, and hence cost, of such shipments.
  
• I admit I am somewhat confused in relation to your requirements for the "wet systems", that is the reactor, propulsion, and related systems. You say you do not wish for these to be replaced, only the "dry" structural elements. Do you intend for us to restore these systems or is this to be done by other parties? In either case, examination of these systems will be necessary for any further assessment. Depending on the nature of the facility in question, the ability of the craft to supply its own power will be critical to the restoration effort.

I have much more which I will need to establish but cannot without a location and initial examination, so let us proceed accordingly. Consider us onboard, metaphorically and as I hope, soon physically as well.

Kind regards,
Simon Giraud
R&D Division
