Greetings Assistant Director,

The past few days have been eventful in my sector. As mentioned in Special Agent LaRouche's report, I aided in the transport of convicts to Sugarland in the Texas System. The mission with ConAir opened my eyes to how to run a successful escort mission. With this knowledge I feel confident to lead in further escorts with Synth Foods, APM & S/D.

After escorting ConAir back to a secure location, I proceeded to Cambridge to patrol there and in Omega's 3 & 7. This route is popular for trade, including APM ships, and hence is subject to occasional piracy. However upon launching from Planet Cambridge, I found a Molly Republic Ship hovering above the system. With my target flying a bomber and myself piloting only a Sea-Serpent I realised that I was severely out of my league. However some White Tiger pilots came into scanner range and I hailed them for support, however they were very hesistant to engage the pilot when we greatly outnumbered him. This frustrated me because the paycheck on a dead Molly is about 2 mil, a concept that greatly excited me. As if answering my prayers, S/D-Athenas.Memory came into Cambridge, hailing me on long range S/D private channels. While the Athenas.Memory came into join the situation I tied the pilot down in taunts and meaningless banter. However just before Athenas.Memory could arrive, the Molly pilot was engaged BAF rookies((NPC's)) and also decided this would be a good opportunity to attack me.

Needless to say it didn't take long for the Sea-Serpent to destroyed and my escape pod to drift off towards Planet Cambridge. Athena resolved the situation by destroying the Molly, tractoring in my pod and carting me back down to Planet Cambridge.

It is for this reason that I was to request the approval to build a AP-12400 to help cope with heavier targets that are frequently being used by pirate organisations. I'd like the designation to be S/D-Penance. I hope to hear of your approval of this soon, however I realise that these things take time and more materials are required for a ship of such size and hull strength.

I await on Planet Cambridge for further communications from Head Office.
