Just an extension to the report of Flieger Fischer.
While him and Landers were fighting the Red Hessian in Dresden, I had the pleasure of patrolling the Crow nebula's most dense area, that being Sigma-13. Aside the usual Junkers and Blood Dragons, we also met a vessel I've only seen once during my Rheinwehr career, all I took of it was a brief glimpse.
Me and my wingman, reserve pilot Rudolf Jaenisch bumped into a ship apparently of Liberty origin, baring heavy resemblance to a Liberty Dreadnaught. Its design and apparent design was similar, but the scans we got off the vessel pointed otherwise.
During my talks with the ship's captain, who claimed to be on a diplomatic mission with the Yanagi junkers, showing no interest in Rheinland, we had plenty of time to analyze the vessel's structure. The massive ship apparently belonged to the rumored conspirator terrorist organization, the Order. Since I had not enough firepower in my hands at that time, we decided to let the ship go. Two Wraith barely could have scratched a battleship.
Marinenachrichtendienst agents analyzed the scanner data we collected and made a comparison between the Order battleship (known as Osiris in the areas where it actually operates) and the Overlord, the Liberty Dreadnaught we recently captured. Most of the data they compared and analyzed is confidential to even me, but allow me share a few tips to the rest of the Rheinwehr staff, should there be another encounter with a vessel of the similar class.
The "Osiris" appears to be lighter and more agile than its Libertonian counterpart, which is probably due to the lack of armor it is plated with. There's hardly any notable difference in the shielding, but the Osiris appears to have a device built into its hull that requires enormous amounts of power to operate. The MND was unable to determine its function, but it may be a weak point of the still quite massively armored Dreadnaught.
The weapon systems are relatively the same, the secondary fire turrets appear to be slightly more powerful than that of the Overlord, however a replication of the armament appears to be impossible, thus field tests cannot confirm the assumption.
Regardless, this type of vessel is to be avoided unless you are properly equipped. If not found within Rheinland borders, do not engage the Dreadnaught, since we have no official confirmation on what organization it actually belongs to. Even though the MND analysis is still not complete, we will probably never have a clear picture on the ship's combat capabilities unless we get to capture a "live specimen."
