1. You capture a notorious terrorist who has planted a bomb on Planet Leeds that will surely kill thousands of people. Your only hope of locating the bomb in time is by torturing his innocent son in front of him. How do you proceed?
Going by the mathematical truth, it's either one life ruined, or thousands lost. If hurting the boy would make this terrorist speak, then that's what I would do.

2. Alone in your bomber you see a Kusari Destroyer moving to break through our lines, do you rush forwards to engage it or wait for approaching reinforcements to attack together?
By engaging the Destroyer it would bogged down, preventing it to attack us in the rear or flank our forces. By trusting my exceptional piloting skill, I know I can hold out long enough on my own until any eventual reinforcements arrive. Besides, it's just one Destroyer.

3. A Privateer is under attack from bounty hunters above Leeds. Both sides call for your assistance. How do you respond?
If the Privateer had broken no Bretonian Laws, engaging the Privateer would be a felony. Privateers might not be Agents of the Crown per se, but they are would still be protected by Bretonian Laws, and as such I would see the bounty hunters as enemy combatants. I would rush to the aid of the Privateer.

4. Following a successful battle the credit for the victory is awarded to your wing commander despite the fact that you personally destroyed over half of the enemy craft. What is your response?
I'd be surprised that I didn't destroy more than half of the enemy forces. Nevertheless, I'm not participating in this war for glory or fame. I'd just be happy to have killed more enemies of the Queen.

5. Whilst on patrol by Planet Leeds you spot an outcast ship carrying cardamine heading South and a Liberty Navy Gunboat flying West. How would you deal with both of these vessels and which would you pursue should they both try to evade you?
Cardamine smugglers should be dealt with by the BPA, and with a foreign warship running about, that would be my priority. The Gunboat would be much more of a threat towards the Kingdom of Bretonia and her citizens.

6. An MI5 agent arrives and informs you that your commanding officer who you have great respect and admiration for is a traitor and attempts to arrest him. Your CO resists, denying that the allegations are true and claiming that this is a Kusari plot, ordering you to help defend him. What do you do?
Anyone can be a traitor or a spy. If my commander is innocent, he'll have nothing to worry about. However, I'd be somewhat surprised why this MI5 agent would inform me, a would-be Ensign, and he wouldn't have to answer to me before arresting my commander. Even so, there's little I can do in this situation.

7. Do you support the Monarchy or democracy? Think carefully before answering.
I'm a Conservative Royalist. I was once a strong supporter the Royalist Party, but after Lord Mountbatten was appointed the position of Prime Minister and formed the new, more progressive government, my fate in the Party diminished. I believe that the Queen should regain direct control over the Admiralty Board and be our undisputed leader. Her authority should be absolute, and not questionable by someone who's in a position of power merely because of extreme popularity.

8. You are captured along with two comrades by the Kusari. You are told that if you do not shoot one of your comrades, you will all be executed. Do you comply? If so, how do you choose which one to kill?
If the enemy would be stupid enough to give me a gun to execute my comrade, they wouldn't live long enough to regret it. Even if it would get myself killed, I'd turn the gun on my captives. I would never break for Kusarians.

9. If you were the Fleet Admiral, describe 3 simple steps you would take in order to bring about a swift victory over the Kusari-Corsair alliance.
Design reliable MOX-bombs, and use them on highly populated planets of our enemies, such as the Planet Kyushu. That would force the Kusarians to break off their war of conquest, unless they're willing to risk more planets to become uninhabitable. And as for the Corsairs, they must have some home-world of sorts. Push back their forces all the way to their lair, and bomb it to smithereens. Some may call it genocide, but the Corsairs are rather genocidal bunch of their own. A fitting end for such a dreadful pack of murders.

10. Describe the correct procedure for destroying an attack wing of KNF-K bombers, indicating what ships and equipment you would bring to the fight.
Swamping the enemy bombers with agile Light Fighters equipped with guns, to slowly wear the enemy down. If the Light Fighters were equipped with missiles, they could neutralize the bombers by destroying their armaments, preventing them to be a threat. Or if time is of the essence, I'd risk a pack of Very Heavy Fighters equipped with guns and perhaps a few missiles which would hasten the destruction of the enemy bombers.

- "There." Dhaval said, as he handed the form back to Cromwell, "Would that be all?" Dhaval wasn't smiling any more. He was bored and tired of any more questionnaires, and he couldn't help to think if all applicants had to fill in tedious forms like this one.
