I have recently acquired my bomber in the Katana Bomber Wing. It has been named the [KNF-K]Kawakaze and is now fully armed and armored and ready for combat. The bomber will typically remain stationed in New Tokyo to deal with the persistent heavy pirate threat in that system as well as Kyushu.
I took the bomber out on a training mission with several other bombers from the Kusari State Police today. We were heading for Hiroshima when we received a report of possible GC activity in Hokkaido. The KSP bomber Kyabetsu and I adjusted course to investigate the situation. Arriving in the system scanners quickly detected 3 GC ships at least one of which was a bomber. The GC craft immediately headed in our direction and we brought our weapons online preparing for battle. We didn't have much opportunity to negotiate and the GC were clearly furious that we were in the area. We managed to bring down 2 of the GC before the Kyabetsu was too heavily damaged and pulled out of the fight. I continued on against the remaining bomber but was unable to gain the upper hand and finally had to pull out, my bomber heavily damaged, and head back to New Tokyo.
Once repairs had been completed I headed to Hiroshima where the bomber combat training exercise was conducted with the Kyabetsu and another KSP bomber.
