Overview

Smoothbore will oversee the repair and recommission of ZETA Squadron assets ONE, TWO, and THREE. This project is marked as high priority.

Details

ZETA Squadron was stationed aboard HFB Incursus, and sustained considerable damage during the Battle of Magellan. ZETA TWO was dealt fatal damage and only recovered following the battle. Damaged sustained was not repaired, and vessels moved to temporary storage pending interment aboard Incursus for maintenance.

ZETA consists of three BDR F-8g 'Defender'-class VHFs of 'Guardian' configuration. Vessels were nominally equipped with a full compliment of 'Judgement'-type heavy plasma blasters in a 'shotgun' configuration.

• Zeta One - 'Defender'-class Heavy Fighter
  
  
  
  Flight leader, came back in one piece, though the systems got fried both during the fighting and when the blackout hit. Damn thing really did a number on our smaller stuff. Mostly electronics damage, though some of the thruster couplings are pretty degraded. Power problems as well, and I'm pretty sure the reactor's still juicing, so it's going to need a deeper look.

• Zeta Two - 'Defender'-class Heavy Fighter
  
  
  
  Only loss in that fight, came in battered to hell; Systems on the fritz, reactor straight won't power on, so any further diagnostics will need to wait until that's done before anything else can be checked. Plating seems to be pretty degraded, too, which is fair. Will have to check the stocks for replacements, which'll probably screw with the paint job. Oh well.

• Zeta Three - 'Defender'-class Heavy Fighter
  
  
  
  This one was troublesome. Hatch seized up after Ganler powered her off, and reignition wouldn't power the motors, so we had to pry the frame open with a multibar. Lehigh squadrons didn't give up, that's for sure. Will need to figure out exactly what happened; Still not 100% about what exactly went wrong. Probably another damaged transfer line.
