Admirals,
The operation to see the CV Atum safely reach Sabah Shipyard has been concluded. The Order battleship was heavily damaged just a few kilometers away from Sabah and had to engage it's prototype cloaking device in order to make it to the station. It is a shame that we had to resort to this desperate measure, but it is good news that the Atum made it there regardless.
Through the brief post-op communications that I managed to establish with the local Overwatch forces it would seem that they are rather happy of TFA's involvement. I have hopes that this operation could lead to a future of coordination between us and the Order that will play an important role in our control over the sector.
Task Force Akhetaten assets that participated in this operation are listed below;
LNS Akhetaten
LNS Normandy
Strikecraft Shrike
Fighter Shroud One
Out of the above assets, both snubfighters safely made it back to their respective docks.
However, the Akhetaten and the Normandy alike did not meet the same fate. Right after the operation was concluded, a significantly sized squadron of infected vessels breached the perimeter of Sabah Shipyard. All available garrison forces were swiftly deployed in the defense of the station, but our attempts were futile. Being heavily outnumbered, there wasn't much we could do besides stand our ground.
Both the Akhetaten and the Normandy were scrapped, however the engagement happened so close to Sabah - practically on top of the station - that the warships were towed into their respective drydocks immediately. For that reason, damage that would otherwise have rendered our warships out of commission for weeks has had insignificant long lasting impact.
Should future operations between us and the Order against alien and infected threats in the operational zone take place, you will be duly informed of them by myself. For now, however, that is all I had to report.
In service to the Republic.
In service to humanity.
