ISPFQ Building A Massive Airfield; Military Analysts Alarmed
By: Dianne Cloyde

ST. IVALICE, ESALONIA-On June 14, 2015, Esalonian satellites passing over the region of PFQ have captured what seems to be an airfield being under construction in ISPFQ territory in Qandaristan. Many Esalonian military analysts and officers have been alarmed, stating that "the airfield, if completed, will cement the fate of Qandaristan in its battle against ISPFQ".

The airfield, codenamed "Biggie" by the Commonwealth Intelligence Group, is projected to be as large as the King Fahd International Airport, with four runways "large enough to accommodate one LY912 each", according to the CIG. The airfield is calculated to have a capacity of at least 2,000 fighter aircraft at most, but some sources claim higher capacities, even reaching 5,000 fighter aircraft. Rumors have abound that the slurry of images on a spot of land just (literally) a stone's throw from the airbase is an in-construction AESA radar dome.

"This airfield can change not only the tides of battle in Qandaristan in favor of the ISPFQ, but also change history, since if it is completed it will be larger than the King Fahd International Airport, with a record-breaking capacity of aircraft never seen before in history." the CIG Director says.

"It's vulnerable to an ICBM attack, in which if a nuclear weapon strikes the place, the entire thing goes boom, and millions of dollars flushed down the toilet in a fissionable way. Or better yet a Hellion battery, if you don't want the locals pouncing on you." Field Marshall Niegel of the 2nd Grand March says.

Only recently was it confirmed that Bendicion was involved in making the airfield. Rumors have spread that Bendian construction companies alongside Bendicion's equivalent to the Department of Defense are assisting the ISPFQ, a local terrorist organization, on constructing the airfield. "This stems from the 2014 Third Qandarian Civil War when Bendicion was supporting ISPFQ in its war, and now they are helping ISPFQ build its first airbase." a CIG operative said.

KESSLER SYNDROME CLAIMS ANOTHER VICTIM!

RSF - A spokesperson for the Royal Space Force confirmed that an explosion spotted in orbit yesterday was one of the Space Force's vessels that had run afoul of the Kessler Syndrome still plaguing our planet's orbit.

The vessel, the Bayleaf-class transport HSS Davenport, was attempting a geostationary orbit prior unloading Morridane troops coming back from service on Rhondda when it was struck amidships by a piece of derbies resulting in critical damage to the vessel. The impact is believed to have ruptured the Davenport's reactor which exploded not long after, destroying the vessel and causing the explosion spotted in orbit.

A RSF escort, the Orca-class frigate HSS Spry, suffered damage from the explosion's EMP burst which also knocked out nearby satellites. The Spry was successfully rescued and towed to McAllister station for repairs, its crew having donned suits when most of the ship's systems went offline. Though no survivors from the Davenport have been reported and it is highly unlikely that there ever will be given the ship's demise, the Morridane Ministry of Defence has stated it'll wait a week before releasing the names of those who were onboard.

Prime Minister Edmund Vermillion has called for a day of mourning across the Commonwealth in light of these tragic events.

*THIS NEWS ARTICLE HAS BEEN REDACTED BY HS GOVERNMENT D-NOTICE*

WHERE ARE OUR MISSING TROOPS?

Charlotte Hemming

The destruction of the Davenport just a few days ago is the tip of an iceberg of a decades old conspiracy, a secret kept suppressed by our Government.

For decades soldiers off the Morridane Army have been sent off to fight a secret war on a distant world, but aside from the odd generic letter nothing has ever been heard of them since. Their names added to the casualty lists of various conflicts or 'tragic accidents', serving only to inflate the numbers to hide the conspiracy in plain sight.

But where does the Davenport fit in?

There have been rumours of so-called 'deserters' from this distant war trying to get back home to their families, though successive government have done their best to silence these homesick soldiers. Combing the Royal Space Force archives the Davenport has never been to Rhondda, instead it was listed many a times as being in 'parts unknown' or what the RSF calls unexplored space. There are many other vessels with the 'parts unknown' listing, the vast majority being supply and transport vessels with a few warships. What more the Davenport's escort the HSS Spry is listed as being assigned to the Gilbertian Patrol, which raises questions as to what was that vessel in orbit when the Davenport was destroyed? It seems very likely that this mystery vessel may even had fired upon and destroyed the Davenport in an extreme attempt to stop those onboard from getting back home.

Why is our government keeping this distant war a secret?

There is something that the early Pathfinders found through a wormhole during the days of Project Rover, a wormhole that didn't receive much publicity when the discovery of a new wormhole was boasted about. What more the RSF established a remote outpost and maintains a very heavy patrol in the region that surrounds it, effectively there to drive away others. According to a Spacer the RSF regularly sends a convoy of transports out to the outpost where they 'disappear' for a period of time, adding weight to the existence of a wormhole being kept hidden by the RSF.

With the various wars that our Commonwealth has found itself embroiled in and despite of National Service conscription our deployments of troops to these conflicts have been surprisingly 'light'. Thanks to National Service we should have a reserve numbering in the millions, yet we only seem to be able to have mere thousands to hand. The annual MoD recruitment figures support there being large amount of troops but something just isn't adding up. We have an army that is unaccounted for, an army that should exist but no trace can be found of it or of the very real troops that are part of it.

So just where are our missing troops?

Failed Assassination Attempt At Torrington Nautica
Violent extremists attempted to murder several high-ranking government officials
By James Oliver, CSBS State Reporter

Nautica Placed On Lockdown After Shots Fired

Pictured: Minister of State Security Gregory Stone (left) and
Minister of Information and State Communications Harry Vaughn,
also brother of the Chancellor, after the failed assassination plot
at the Torrington Nautica's unveiling of the IX Pershing Space Vessel.

The Torrington Nautica was the site of an assassination attempt on two high-ranking government officials Friday afternoon, during the Nautica's unveiling of the new IX Pershing Space Vessel, designed for orbital cargo operations and short-range flights to inner space stations. The IX Pershing is to replace the current STS system already in place, which has been heavily modified over the years.

Present at the event was Minister of State Security Gregory Stone and Minister of Information and State Communications Harry Vaughn, both of whom received minor wounds. Minister Vaughn, brother of the Chancellor of the Castillian National Socialist State, J. Oswald Vaughn IV, was the main target of the assailant, whose identity has yet to been released to the public. Minister Vaughn was shot in the right shoulder, where the bullet failed to pass through.

The gunman was quickly shot to death by military security officers of the Castillian Air Force stationed at the Torrington Nautica. The Nautica itself is a military installation, and questions have been raised as to how the gunman made it into the event, and especially armed.

The Nautica, the State's premier research institute for military and academic fields, is under the command of the Castillian Air Force. It is a public building, with portions of it being a museum dedicated to Castillian exploits in the fields of science and space exploration. It hosts the Moon Dome, built to showcase the Castillian expansion into space. It has a topographically correct replica of the moon spinning in the middle, and on the surface of the moon is a miniature model of the Castillian lunar base. The building is a popular destination site for tourists.

However, in events such as the unveiling of the IX Pershing, the building is closed to the public, except for those who received invitations to such an event. The Ministry of State Security then takes charge of security from the Air Force Security Forces units, and a number of both classified and unclassified security measures, including automated sentry turrets, mechanized attack dogs, and rooftop snipers, are utilized to ensure the safety and security of the guests at the event.

The Ministry of State Security is investigating alongside the Torrington Municipal Police Authority and the National Counter-Terrorism Command, who believe the attack may have been ideologically motivated. Among the contents in the gunman's pockets was found a Holy Bible, an outlawed text under the Subversive Activities Extermination Executive Order. It is believed as of now that the man who attempted to kill Minister Harry Vaughn, whose government office oversees all media, including CSBS, and is also to believed to be a Christian radical.

The Chancellery has acknowledged that such underground movements, like Christian terrorist groups, have formed within the State, but are usually terminated before they strike using classified means to track down and destroy them. Last month, State Security Enforcers raided a warehouse in Port Mackenzie, killing a dozen radicals and arresting around twenty. The terrorists were using the warehouse in the Port Mackenzie quarantine zone as a base of operations, because of the Blood Fever threat that still looms through the industrial district.

Three months ago, citizens of the State in the Antietam capital area could tune into a pirate radio station that was operating out of the Port Mackenzie district as well. The Capitol Police Authority reported that it fielded thousands of phone calls and reports, and within a few hours, the broadcast was terminated by the Ministry of State Security. The Chancellery said that events such as this one were the attempts of terrorist groups to undermine the order and stability of the State.

After the Friday assassination attempt, it was reported that both Ministers Vaughn and Stone are back in the capitol, and will continue to carry out their duties. The Nautica is no longer on lockdown, and again the exhibits are open to the public.

Glory to the State.

James Oliver reported from Antietam, in the Castillian National Socialist State.

Haize Aerospace Defense Contingent's Top Brass Berates Morridane Government Irresponsibility

If the Morridane Government cannot handle their spaceships properly, we will 'handle' them instead. - HADC Top Brass

Aerospace Defense Commandant Schornsk-Kakeri
comments on Morridane accident

Haize Aerospace Defense Contingent's top brass Aerospace Defense Commandant Schornsk-Kakeri have outspoken against the supposed recent tragedy befalling the Morridane State space program. Citing it as a clear cut example of governmental incompetence and associated defense and space services of the Morridane State, the Commandant seriously condemned the Morridane State in general for letting the accident to proceed to where it is; complete loss of the vessel and alleged detonation of the space vessel's atomic power source.

Commandant Schornsk-Kakeri commented, "I was originally thought to sympathize with the loss of all hands on HSS Davenport but then I reviewed the details as published by the Morridane Government. What does it shows me? Incompetence in design, negligence in protocol and absurd disrespect to Dienstad. If the Morridane Government cannot handle their spaceships properly, we will 'handle' them instead."

The Commandant do not shy away from the assumption made by Haize defense analysts where Haize Aerospace Defense Contingent might enforce a no-orbit zone with force, above Haishan in conjunction of Haize Interstellar Armed Forces. Other Haize governmental agencies are less harsh than the service remarks but majority of them have decided to call out on the failures of the Morridane State Government, particularly after Haishan is just recovering from an earlier Kessler triggered by Kingdom of Imbrinium.

The Junta offered both condolences and condemnation; condolences for the families of personnel aboard HSS Devonport and condemnation for the Morridane Government for letting the accident happen in the first place, especially in the strategic geostationary/geosynchronous orbital band where majority of positioning and communication satellites resides in. The Junta have also considered possibility of no-confidence motion against Morridane Government participation in Eastern Dienstadi Treaty Organization and Global Aerospace Trade Association due to the accident.

Haize Interstellar Armed Forces on the other hand condemns Commonwealth Colonial Authority for yet another inaction to solve their own founder problems, noting the supranational organization is only an alliance of convenience. Haize space agency, Advanced Space Development Directorate with help of Haize Aerospace Defense Contingent have confirmed generation of several ten thousands of new debris in the afflicted orbital zone through numerous radar and electro-optic measurements.

Recent simulations revealed it will impact majority of Dienstad as the orbital zone is a popular altitude for civilian and military satellites although Haize Aerospace Defense Contingent predicted the so-called Lyran Damocles constellation will once again magically escape the new debris field as how it magically escaped an earlier Kessler. Should the situation go south, the service hinted that it might consider to introduce more drastic measures in the orbital band in attempt to bring majority of the debris down.

"Haize accusations are pointless and unhelpful" says DEE Representative

-DEE Command Centre
Rosewell, Mejico, Mokastana

"Like my colleagues in the Haize Aerospace Defense Commandant and their Junta, I've read the reports and while I agree this was a terrible tragedy, these
Haize accusations are pointless and unhelpful."

Commander Ivanya Castro sits in her office at The Department of Space Exploration(Departamento de Exploración Espacial) with a copy of the infamous report in front of her. Matching it are copies of the Mokan observations and records.

"This Kessler has claimed satellites and orbiting items from various nations. I heard no condemnation when the Golden Throne lost civilian satellites, nor pubic apology for their own incompetence when they lost additional assets during the early days of Kessler.

We've had our own close calls, and we use a lot of the same technology the Morridanes use. We understand the risks better and are willing to offer our assets to the CCA to help clean up.

However, I think it is time to review the effectiveness of the Haize's clean up project if we still have a high risks of accidents in the local sky. Perhaps they are not as effective as they would like it's to believe?"

Haize Aerospace Defense Contingent's Top Brass Argue over Allegations and Wishful Thinking

What does that show for the rest of the Royal Space Force? Are they ticking timebombs? - HADC Top Brass

Upon refutation from Morridane Government and vitrolic commentary from Commander Ivanya Castro of Mokan Department of Space Exploration, Aerospace Defense Commandant Schornsk-Kakeri argue over the official responses published by both entities. While the news of Morridane Royal Space Force response were expected, the Commandant still questions the state of Morridane space program which lead to total loss of HSS Devonport.

The Commandant argues that, "I'm not sure why they called us as mad and technically put words in my mouth that anyone is immune to accident per se-I'm intrigued on why HSS Devonport exploded while common sense in spacecraft design will not cause catastrophic detonation of the vessel unless it's loaded with volatile cargoes and magically have poor manufacture and design. I mean, these are space-faring vessels. If a single debris hit can cause them to explode, I question their reliability. What does that show for the rest of the Royal Space Force? Are they ticking timebombs?"

As per Commander Ivanya Castro commentary, Space Commandant Zachyr-Toshri of Haize Interstellar Armed Forces offers an alternate elaboration, "We are aware that Commonwealth Colonial Authority do have an ERP [Emergency Response Plan] for these kinds of accidents. I don't hear any condemnation of sorts from Haishan when Mokan Federation allegedly shot our asset on 'mistake' either. We're cool heads around."

"I believe we should see this problem constructively, a more proactive, open approach from the Authority to prevent these accidents and Commander Ivanya commentary proves that Morridane materiel remain secret and subsequently lead to confusion; obviously we do not know their designs or their protocols as they don't tell us how or what it is. As per Commander Ivanya last commentary, let me rephrase that; what does the Department of Space Exploration have in store to deal with these problems?"

"As far as I know, we're trying to solve our own Kessler without backing of supranational entity which obviously have better resources. In fact, our space agency [Advanced Space Development Directorate] was the first to start an aggressive debris mitigation program to painstakingly clean orbital bands within reach of Haishan without any help or thanks from other Dienstadi States. So it's not the question of effectiveness, but cooperativeness. The Department should show us that they're credible, not question what we did. We did our part."

The service have acknowledged an increase of orbital activities as per Morridane Government press release but cautioned that the delicate situation should be handled carefully, citing plausibility of secondary Kessler given it was reported Royal Space Force assets were clustered together in a particular space. Advanced Space Development Directorate on the other hand slams accusations from Mokan Department of Space Exploration, highlighting that the agency did an intensive debris sweep several months prior the newest Morridane accident.

The agency also questions the Department's apparent moral high ground on criticizing the agency ineffectiveness and the Department inaction for past several months to solve the ongoing Haize Kessler, while the Haize space agency have been hard at work independently from other more, wealthier and better equipped space agencies aligned with Commonwealth Colonial Authority.

BREAKING NEWS — Fedala. The Golden Throne's response to the Richtofen Statement was not slow in coming. His Imperial Majesty Fedor I thought communicating the Golden Throne's position on recent events, namely those concerning the war-torn Red Star Union and the United World Order, so important that he dispatched one of his krierlord to the task. This is indeed a rare event, underscoring the importance to which Fedor gives the issue. Perhaps the Imperial Government fears that events in Red Star Union will spin out of control, as the proxy war between the Ordenites and Mokastana escalates. This most recent Richtofen Statement, in fact, essentially declared open economic warfare on Mokan shipping within Ordenite waters. In response to this, Krierlord Roland Peskual issued the following late-night press release:

To threaten economic warfare is an unpardonable travesty, as that is an attack on the very core of human progress and success. But, it shall be a costly mistake to the Ordenites alone. While they have the unquestionable right to do as they wish within their sovereign territory, which extends out to their coastal waters, they will not be allowed to prowl the ocean just beyond for unsuspecting Mokan cargo ship and other civilian vessels. Mokan merchant ships traveling north of the Golden Throne and voyaging the seas between Red Star Union and the United World Order shall benefit from the protection of the Kriermada (navy) and Laerihans (air force). From the western shores of New Empire to the immediate oceans beyond the northern heartland a safe zone shall be enforced. Attacks within established safe waterways will be responded to with unconstrained force, and attacks on assets of the Golden Throne will be considered an act of war.

However, that does not mean we condone Mokan actions in Red Star Union. In fact, we condemn them. His Imperial Majesty has determined that the Ordenite-backed Kedrov government has the rightful claim as that country's government, as it is best positioned to restore peace to Red Star Union. The Imperial Government has therefore begun to fund the Kedrov regime, giving money for armament procurement and for the training of a local paramilitary that can act as law enforcement until order has been restored. Furthermore, we recognize the island as unified and declare the Mokan presence to be unlawful. Until the island is reunified we will continue to support Kedrov's war. Being on such cordial terms, we do welcome Mokastana to approach us diplomatically to discuss the matter.

PM CONFIRMS TROOP LANDINGS, STATES GOALS

MORRDUN - Today Prime Minister Edmund Vermillion confirmed news that had been in the media grapevine for some time now.

In a press conference the Prime Minister stated; "I can confirm that Commonwealth forces have landed upon the northern Imbrinium coast and have taken up positions in a bloodless 'invasion'. No fighting has occurred and our troops are presently dug in and waiting further orders, attempts are now underway to open a channel with the Imbrinium government. Today I publicly declare that if the Kingdom of Imbrinium agrees to a complete withdrawal from Mordent then Commonwealth forces will leave northern Imbrinium without firing a shot. In the meantime we are attempting to co-ordinate efforts with local authorities to ensure the safety of the local civilian population as much as humanly possible, this extends to ensuring that they are well looked after and attempting to wotk out evacuation plans with local authorities should the need arise."

"I hope the Imbrinium government sees this as a way to end our current conflict without further bloodshed and accepts the Commonwealth's proposal, it is now up to the Imbriniums whether it'll be peace or continued war." The Prime Minister continued. "Whilst we await the Imbrinium government's response I extend an open invitation to the world's media to come to northern Imbrinium and see for themselves the effort that our troops are going to ensure the safety of the local population."

OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE - MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS

It has come attention to the State that the Ordernite Reich has made a press release regarding the official doctrine of the Reich as outlined by the Fuhrer, Christian Richtofen. First, the States does object to some of the provisions outlined in your policy, it should in no way affect the current relationship between the Castillian State and the Ordernite Reich. As of right now, the State has no intentions to take action against either the Ordernite Reich or the People's Unified Federation of Mokastana.

The Chancellor of the Castillian National Socialist State has no say in the affairs of the Ordernite Reich, and recognizes the sovereignty of the Reich, as well as its claims in Holy Panooly and the Red Star Union. The State does not condone the intervention of Mokastana in the Red Star Union, however it does not condemn it either. However, the Ordernite positions to claim Mokan troops as terrorists is not the correct course of action. Firing upon Mokan troops and/or seizing Mokan vessels will undoubtly lead to a long and costly conflict between the PUF and the Ordernite Reich.

Should any conflict break out between the Reich and the PUF, the State will remain in a position of neutrality. The State has announced recently it plans to improve relations with the PUF. The State has every intention to remain allies with the Ordernite Reich, but will not be dragged into a conflict because of the actions of another sovereign state. The State shall continue to pursue positive relations with the People's Unified Federation of Mokastana.

The State Remains.

BREAKING NEWS: NATIONAL ORDENITE FASCIST PARTY MEMBER CLAUS HOENER DELIEVERS THE ORDENITE REICH RESPONSE TO FOREIGN CRITICISM.

Ordenite Reich Broadcasting Corporation Intro & Outro.

The media footage began with a cinematic view of Berlina the capital of the Ordenite Reich. Skyscrapers and busy streets were shown before the showing of the interior of the coliseum like building which the speech by Claus Hoener would be held inside. Thousands sat in attendance to witness the speech be made in response to foreign criticism to the Richtofen Doctrine which when given a census, It came out that 98.9 percent of people who participated in the census agreed and supported the Doctrine made by Fuhrer Christian Richtofen. A grand stage equipped with a large podium for the speaker and Ordenite Reich affiliated flags and banners along with other Pro-Ordenite paraphernalia decorated the stage and the coliseum as well.

A well dressed indivual took the stage as he stood at the podium surveying the massive crowd before announcing the speaker."Jetzt präsentieren Claus Höner!" he then stuck his arm out as Claus Hoener himself came from off-stage and walked to the podium, the announcer and Claus shook hands and went their separate ways.

"Ordenite national comrades." Claus began as the coliseum went silent and Claus's voice echoed throughout to the thousands sitting in attendance and would also play to the millions watching him on television screens or listening through state sanctioned radio stations. "On July 8th, 2015 our Fuhrer Christian Richtofen published and delivered the Richtofen Doctrine to the world. Outlining the steps our Fuhrer and the Ordenite Reich has taken to secure a better future for our state and for our people. In recent months our Reich has overcome many challenges both domestic and foreign with the recent one being in the Red Star Union, a nation robbed of it's freedom to communists and their regime fueled by slavery and oppression against the people who starve and suffer under poor but un-changeable economic decisions forced on them by criminals and bigots like Vladmir Aponos."

The people in attendance applauded and cheered in approval and response to Claus as he paused and waited for them to stop so he could continue and he did. "Among these criminals and bigots that support this kind of torture and oppression of ones people is the un-recognized rouge state of Mokastana who shares similar political views with Vladmir Aponos's failing regime in the Red Star Union. I and I'm sure the people of the Ordenite Reich pity the people of Mokastana who have to suffer day by day and night by night under the failed regime of Henry Milano who one day will be choked and castrated by the very chains he locked his own people up in when he came to power!"

The coliseum erupted into furious applause and cheering to what Claus had said. He waited for the crowd to die down so he could speak again and he did. "Economic warfare they say we have declared upon the Mokastana and of course the Golden Throne again shows their snake like political motives in ensuring the criminal rouge state of Mokastana does not suffer it's fate at the hands of our Reich! What does It matter? Warfare is warfare and It Is a tool humans like us use daily to get what we want, and we are determined to get what we the Ordenite Reich wants to preserve a future for our future generations that will see the Ordenite Reich last a thousand years!"

The thousands in attendance erupted once again in approval of the words spoken by Claus Hoener. When they settled down Claus continued with his closing statements. "My comrades, the campaign in the Red Star Union will soon be concluded as another victory for the Ordenite Reich against the communists who try and force their tendencies and corrupt façade upon us. The Red Star Union will be no more following our final victory and will be re-born a true nation with a second chance on starting a new and giving it's people what they rightfully deserve. And with that I must end my speech here, It was surely a honor speaking in-front of all of my fellow compatriots and fellow Ordenites. Let enlightenment prosper so peace may prevail." Claus made a salute with his right arm concluding his speech as the coliseum erupted again in a massive ovation for his speech as applause and cheers filled the building. The screen turned black before showing credits for the broadcast of the speech across television screens and a foreword by the announcer on state sanctioned broadcasts and news papers would write about It as well, highlighting certain parts and giving summaries and their own responses.

Varessan Foreign Legionnaires Land at a Mokastanan controlled airfield in Red Star Union

Varessa Deploys Troops to Red Star Union, Vows to Defend Liberty Against Fascism

Valénce, Gallic Social Republic of Varessa

Varessan troops have begun pouring into the balkanizing state of Red Star Union in support of the socialist government and their Mokastanan benefactors. Their opponents, half a million troops from the fascist state of the United World Order, as well as an unknown but growing pro-fascist militia, have been gaining ground in recent weeks prompting this major Varessan intervention. Varessan President François Brûlart ordered the deployment two days ago after a cabinet meeting with senior defense and foreign affairs officials.

A spokesperson for the Varessan Gallic Armed Forces, Major Annabelle Guéren, stated that the Varessan Foreign Legion had deployed two regiments, as had the Varessan Marines with an additional two regiments. Two divisions of Varessan Army troops are also in the process of deployment. The Marines had begun landing near an established Mokastana controlled port in RSU, while the Foreign Legion and Army were flying their forces into several Mokan controlled airports. The RSU government has welcomed these forces with opened arms, expressing that they sincerely believe that the Varessans as a force for good will in conjunction with their Mokan partners secure the liberty of the RSU people.

A deputy for the Varessan Ministry for Foreign Affairs and International Development commented cryptically that no formal exchanges have been made betwene UWO and Varessa, but that the International Development bureau of his ministry was already preparing it's post-conflict reconstruction gameplan.

No other comments regarding the Varessan military's operations plan have been made, and are expected to remain a closely guarded secret in the opening phase of this new conflict.

First XF-26 ‘Assassin’ Fighters Delivered to RAF
First squadron of new fighter jets begin pre-deployment training

Sat 25 Jul

XF-26 Assassin Air Superiority Fighter Jet

The Stevidian Royal Air Force has had its first delivery of the new and highly anticipated XF-26 Assassin air superiority fighter jets. The aircraft, numbering an initial 24, were delivered to RAF Marston Green, Stevidia, just southeast of the Stevidian Wastelands, to become part of the newly formed 444 Squadron. The new squadron forms part of 1 (Home) Group under RAF Fighter Command and will be tasked primarily with Home Isles anti-air defence.

This delivery is the first of many with the Ministry of Defence looking to procure an initial total of 1,000 aircraft forming several dozen new squadrons, with 444 Sqn becoming to newest addition to the RAF family that has seen it’s size swell during the current war with Imbrinium. The squadron will begin flying the Assassins over the next few days and begin pre-deployment training within two weeks before being moved to a wartime theatre, most likely to be Stevidian South Greal.

The XF-26 Assassin is touted to be a 6th Generation air superiority fighter aircraft because of the installed capabilities and future potential to house more revolutionary technology, including point defence lasers. The XF-26 was unveiled last year at the first Diensatory conference having been under development since the outset of war with Imbrinium. The aircraft was praised as an unprecedented success and features rare technology that while available to many nations is seldom used by some major powers. The XF-26 has the capabilities to mount point defence lasers, flies by optical wire and has comprehensive electronic defence and counter measures.

The aircraft was ordered by the Ministry of Defence to add a stealth aircraft with unparalleled dog-fighting abilities that could then outmanoeuvre or match any fighter aircraft in the world. This is probably to counteract the mass amounts of ‘off the shelf’ products employed by many nations around the world – particularly in the current regional conflict.

Analysis
What makes the Assassin so special?

The addition of the XF-26 into the RAF is extremely significant to the Holy Empire and to her enemies. Stevid is one of the region’s larger powers that consistently uses domestically produced aircraft that are tried and tested in battle and hold their own quite comfortably against the more popular aircraft from Lyran Arms and VMK (to name a few). Because of this the RAF has gained a healthy region wide respect for its abilities, particularly after the air battle that raged off Stevid’s and Liberated America’s north eastern coasts as Imbrinium attempted to destroy the Royal Navy.

The RAF currently uses the Nightwalker (also carrier based) and Hawkers as its principle anti-air aircraft with Scorpions (also carrier based) in the strike role. These aircraft are supplemented by the successful Sabre GR.1 multi-role aircraft that have proven themselves as cheap replacements for lost units in the war with an impeccable track record in the war that makes them something of ‘unsung heroes’ of the conflict.

But the RAF always lacked a dedicated stealth anti-air aircraft putting emphasis on armament plus time in battle zone over surprise. Together with close interoperability with ground forces, it meant Stevidian aircraft could outgun and out perform (in terms of time spent fighting) their opponents in sky battles. But the addition of the XF-26 adds another variable to future battles, as this aircraft is more than capable of tackling any aircraft flown by any aggressor to the Empire in the current war.

The most impressive thing about the aircraft is its manoeuvrability, both in the dive and stall. It uses the seldom seen fly-by-optics, or fly-by-light; an advancement from the fly-by-wire system used by most 4th and 5th generation military aircraft to control wing surfaces at low and high speeds to perform turns that a human pilot would never be able to achieve without stalling or performing incorrectly. The inclusion of such technology plus the electronics suite, room for laser weaponry, and the first miniaturised exo-skeleton engine installed on a military aircraft in the world means she is a tentative first step into the realms of “6th Generation” fighters.

XF-23 Nightwalker Replacement?

There is debate about whether or not the new Assassin aircraft will replace the current anti-air workhorse of the RAF, the XF-23 Nightwalker. The Nightwalker is not only the most numerous fighting in the RAF it is also the principle fighter of the Royal Navy’s Fleet Air Arm. The Nightwalker was designed in 2004 in the run up to the Second War of Golden Succession but didn’t see delivery until 2006 and was only deployed on active duty during until the later quarter of the war. After over a decade of service the craft have been continually upgraded and have yet to be bested into complete obsoleteness by any foreign aircraft. It is for this reason their lives have continued to be extended and why the Ministry of Defence has stated the XF-26 Assassin is to complement the Nightwalker and Hawker in air defence.

However many defence analysts are speculating that the end of the Nightwalker is nigh and that eventually it will not be able to compete with aircraft of other nation states in the same way it did 10 years ago. The arrival of the Assassin may allow for a like for like replacement of the Nightwalker with the more advanced Hawker while allowing the Assassin’s numbers to swell further, phasing the Nightwalker out altogether as a frontline aircraft.

Combat tests between the two aircraft were quite impressive as the Nightwalker did confirm Assassin ‘kills’ but was regularly outmanoeuvred and ‘killed’ by the Assassin, meaning that a fully dedicated stealth dog-fighting aircraft could happily tackle at Nightwalker head-to-head – hence the purchase of the Assassin to address this deficiency in the RAF.

For now the Nightwalker remains but once the current war is over a planned Governmental White Paper Defence Review will take place to analyse the war in depth and present to the House of Commons what the government will do to address the more notable shortcoming the Empire had in the war. The Nightwalker’s performance will be scrutinised carefully and it is there that defence analysts believe the Nightwalker will fail to impress paving the way for more orders of the XF-26 Assassin.

Prototype "Specter" tank wins design competition to replace the Leopard 2 MBT in Teutonic Military Service.

The Teutonic Army's Teutonic Next Generation Tank (TNGT) program, a competition intended to design and field a replacement for the aging leopard 2 tank which has been the mainstay of Teutonic ground forces for the last several decades, concluded last week with the "Specter" tank from Kestrel Armaments being declared the winner. The three deciding features resulting in the Specter being chosen the winner were its advanced quantum imaging system, cryogenically cooled on-board supercomputer, and active multi-spectral stealth system.

Decorated Teutonic Army Tank Commander Michael Carrius weighs in:

The capabilities are beyond anything that exists out there. With the quantum imaging system you can detect any vehicle or aircraft at pretty much any combat range, regardless of its stealth features or jamming ability. The stealth system is also a huge game changer. When it's turned on you're pretty much invisible to radar or infra-red and really hard to spot with the naked eye. Enemy vehicles have to get within 300 hundred meters to be able to get even a faint trace of the thing. Hopefully it will make its way on to the battlefield shortly and help save some lives.

The steep price tag of the Specter, 36 million per unit, means that only certain units will be equipped with it at first. The Teutonic Army is hopeful that by 2017 all their current Leopard 2A6 vehicles will be replaced with the Spectre.

Teutonic Republic Latest Tank; A Dark Horse or a White Elephant? Haize Army Top Brass Weighs In
Written by Akasha-Tarentav | Defence.Net International™

Indirectly touted as region's best, will the Specter successor be a hover tank?

Amidst the hotly debated perspective Haize heavy tank, Holy Empire announcement of next generation anti air system and a brand new stealth plane comes a surprising disclosure from Teutonic Republic which previously are under the radar of Haize Junta; the Republic triumphantly declared that its newest hardware would be very competitive if not region's best in Greater Dienstad whereby States seek to one-up other military progresses.

Direct from the Republic high ranking Army Tank Commander Micheal Carrius, the new military hardware or known as Specter MBT is claimed to feature unbeatable detection scheme and revolutionary stealth in contrast of advanced Dienstadi tanks such as the worldwide famous and spread, Lyran tanks and, Sumerian juggernaut of death, the MCA-series vehicles. The Specter vehicle like its name suggests it emerged straight from science fiction and thus Defence.Net have invited Haize Ground Army Contingent top brass Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin to weigh in her valuable opinions.

Defence.Net : Nihatzi Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin. Can you tell us what is your first impression of this new Republic's tank?

Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin : Nihatzi. Well on the surface, I found its description hard to believe....like Defence.Net, I was also squarely convinced that it comes straight from science fiction or some sort of madmen lab *giggle*. *Ahem*, officially, the Army have obviously viewed any foreign developments with great interest because you don't know when you will face them but a lil preparation wouldn't hurt. On paper, the Specter suggest it have some serious capabilities which is on par with the mass produced, worldwide famous Lyran tank. However, when I read through public information on the Specter, courtesy of Kestrel Armaments, I feel relieved as it's not as what it's made to be.

Defence.Net : Oh? What makes you say that, Colonel General? Isn't Specter MBT have revolutionary stealth and unjammable detectors?

Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin : Hmm...well on the stealth, we the Haize Army have conducted a fair bit of our studies and we found out it's not hard to circumvent. While combining radar stealth with infrared stealth is certainly novel of them, the idea itself isn't novel as multispectral stealth have long existed in other foreign militaries tanks. What's inconclusive is how good is their system and our countermeasures against it but of course, any further matter into these is certainly classified and State secrets.

Defence.Net : We understand. What does the Army think of Specter's so-called unjammable capabilities?

Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin : The Army found it certainly interesting given the Republic is the first Dienstadi State to push it into active service but of course, it's no panacea. Consider this, with advancement of electronics, obviously computing power will get cheap. And from this deduction, that means more stuffs can be linked together. From that, we can derive the state of the world right now; cheap computing power means elements can be integrated far better than before and thus gave rise to this new stuff known as 'networked warfare'.

So, the Specter can transmit whatever as it wants but it also means it's exposing itself. And in the world where anti tank missiles can be fired at long range and directed by a mere foot soldier...all that unjammable qualities are all but quaint given as soon as the tank transmit, networked sensors can track it and a counter-action can be made, such as an ATGM.

In other words, any tank can have undecipherable code or whatever but that doesn't really mesh well with current reality; anyone transmit first will surely get detected and shot upon, even if the contents of the message is undecipherable. The Army realized this a long time ago and thus we do not have such fancy gears planned except for the Signalling Corps where message secrecy is very important.

Defence.Net : But isn't the Specter have revolutionary stealth that makes it invisible to infrared imagers and radars? Wouldn't that make it elusive to the ATGM?

Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin : As I said, the current reality is not candies and roses. For one versus one engagement or primitive enemies, the Specter is surely advantageous. Return to my statement that computing power is on the cheap and so does sensors. All of such fancy stuffs wouldn't hold much versus the reality of intelligent warfare. To us, it's better to concentrate the material in question [unjammable quantum technology] where it matters, like communications. Not detection given the absurd missile spam and networked reality of the world today. As per infrared stealth, it might be useful in some situations but it's a situational solution. On how we counter that, it's a State secret.

Defence.Net : What, more State secrets?

Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin : Yes, really. I would love to tell you but it will be my head on the line, Army directive *giggle*. But I can tell you that, we also looked into the same capabilities but we decided it's not worth it and thus diverted our efforts on understanding and countering it instead.

Defence.Net : Okay. What are the Army additional thoughts on the Specter?

Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin : Uh, this is a tough one to answer. We're still trying to think up a suitable deduction for the Haize Junta to consider but we can summarize some of our main points. The gun is novel, reminiscent of Macabee famous Nakil-series tanks but we view that such complicated mechanism is little benefit for little gain. The armour by the way, we're not sure what to make out of it, but it seems advanced in some form that we couldn't understand it or it's simply as it is.

As per the engine, it seems pretty standard but we can see that the Specter is indirectly inspired by Marquesan State tank which uses HTS in its electrical motive units. Usage of supercapacitors is also something to be expected given the tank's complicated main gun system. I'm not sure where the flywheel fit in all that given a tank doesn't move like a car do but I will give them credit of daredevilry using it on a tank where no one had done before.

The tank supercomputer, reminds me of supercomputers that are in research institutions and certainly not on a tank as it's similarly complicated as the main gun. All that performance is good but a tank doesn't just sit there, but it will be subjected to various battlefield weapons that consist from explosion, blast, frag and whatever and thus we believe a more robust hardened, room temperature system is better than a finicky computer that need liquid nitrogen to operate.

The sensor suites reminded me of complexity on our spy satellites and like before, I don't see the compelling need to cram that much expensive sensors on a vehicle that will get threatened by alot of things. The AESA will obviously negate whatever radar stealth it uses as per my argument of cheap computing power. And lastly, the tank have a distressing selection of ammunition; it only have a weirdly named kinetic projectile and a missile. We would have at least use three kinds of ammunition but Haize armoured development is obviously, still State secret.

Defence.Net : Thank you for the brief summary. Now, moving to the last question....is this Specter a dark horse or a white elephant? Should the Army be scared of it?

Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin : Woah, that's a double question *giggle*. Well personally, I think the Specter could be either but the Army main consensus that we wouldn't know until the tank actually performed in battle. It looks like a very expensive piece of hardware and for the price of one, I could buy two cheaper tanks or even three jet fighters but of course, that's the price of being so advanced. Regarding the last question, I refer you back to my earlier statement. Until we see how the main battle tank perform, we cannot say anything concrete given the Republic itself termed Specter as a prototype. Nevertheless, we will be ever cautious and vigilant.

Defence.Net : Thank you for your time, Colonel General.

Colonel General Lyulka-Tashin : No problem. Just next time, don't ask leading questions. We have certain protocols to upheld as the Army of Haishan.

From the interview, Defence.Net concluded that the Specter tank could somehow live up to the hype as stated by the Republic's Teutonic Army Tank Commander Michael Carrius if only it justifies its massive costs and seemingly experimental technologies in the field versus competent opponents such as standard-setting Macabee Nakils, Sumerian juggernauts of death and worldwide famous Lyran tanks. What is certain however, the prototype doesn't have a discernible doctrinal justification except being advanced and thus it's can be clearly seen that the Republic aimed to compete with such Dienstadi record tanks with sheer technological prowess. On how and where Haize prospective tank fits into the equation will still remain a mystery until disclosed.

"Valkyrie""Hypersonic Space Bomber successfully completes first test flight, sets numerous flight records.

Pictured: The Valkyrie in flight photographed by a low orbiting satellite

The "Valkyrie", a hypersonic space bomber jointly developed by Bavarian Space Works and Kestrel Armaments, completed its first flight test this Monday after significant cost and development issues had delayed the program, initially designed to enter service with the Teutonic Air Force in the late 1990s. The "Valkyrie" was originally developed in 1980's as a candidate for the Teutonic Military's "Global Strike Program" which called for a system that could deliver a sizable conventional or nuclear payload anywhere in the world in less than one hours time. An air-breathing, long range, "boost-glide" trajectory hypersonic bomber was chosen as the ideal platform for this objective and thus development on the Valkyrie began in 1987 with funding from the Teutonic Space Agency, Teutonic Air Force, and the Advanced Aeronautics division of Kestrel Armaments. The craft was to follow a "boost-glide" sub-orbital trajectory which would give it the necessary range to hit targets anywhere on the planet. With design requirements necessitating an aircraft that had to travel over 24 times the speed of sound and fly at over 100 kilometers altitude significant technological delays and funding issues plagued the problem throughout its initial development.

The tuning point came in 2004 when Bavarian Space Works, a private aerospace corporation, joined the effort to develop the Valkyrie after budget cuts to the Teutonic Space Agency and Air Force threatened to end the project. Engineers at Bavarian Space Works had developed an extremely high efficiency Magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) thruster which solved the earlier propulsion issues of the Valkyrie. At higher altitudes, past 50 km and up into the mesosphere, the oxygen concentration becomes too low for air-breathing engines to operate and atmospheric pressure is too low for aerodynes to generate lift. MPD thrusters, powered by MHD generators in the nose of the aircraft, were installed in the Valkyrie for use at high altitudes in addition to its combined-cycle turbine engines which can normally propel the craft to an altitude of 38,500 meters at a speed of mach 12-15.

The Valkyrie completed its first flight test this Monday, in the process setting numerous aviation records. The craft took off from a secret Teutonic Air Force base in the Venusberg Mountains before circumnavigating the planet and landing back at the same air base. Numerous flight sensors were placed in the craft which gathered highly useful meso-atmospheric data, amongst other things.

Aviation Records Set by the Valkyrie during its first test flight:

Fastest flight speed obtained by an air-breathing vehicle: 28,650 km/h (Mach 23.4)
Highest altitude achieved with a fixed wing aircraft: 132,500 meters

The Valkyrie, which measures over 100 meters in both length and width and weights over 400 tons fully loaded, is capable of carrying 90,000 kg of payload to any location on the planet whilst being virtually immune to any form of air defense. A special bomb was developed especially for the Valkyrie named the "Blackstrike", a 900kg mach 20 hypersonic glide bomb with a 7,700 kilometer range which can either carry a 450 kg conventional warhead or a 500kt thermonuclear warhead. In addition to its obvious potential as a strategic bomber the Valkyrie is capable of being modified into a hypersonic transport, a launch platform to deliver satellites into low earth orbit, or as a launch vehicle for a two-stage-to-orbit space-plane.

More tests are being planned in order to gather more atmospheric data and to gauge the Valkyries flight capabilities. Once testing and validation of the aircraft is complete the Valkyrie is scheduled to begin full scale production with the Teutonic Air Force hoping to acquire 12 of the the new bombers by the end of 2016. The Teutonic Space Agency, which is coordinating the aircraft's testing with the Teutonic Air Force, has already placed an order of two of the vehicles for use in atmospheric testing and space launch purposes.

Inside the Castillian Regime's Secret Project: Playing God
FDP investigates claims that the Castillian National Socialist State has built a sinister military mega-weapon.
Joshua Culbreath (@Josh_Culbreath_FDP)
^{July 27, 2017 6:43 PM | Mac Anu, Aqua Anu, PUF Mokastana}

A leaked photo of the Castillian High-Frequency Auroral and Atmospheric Manipulation facility in the northern Cashmere Province.

VAN HEUSEN, Cashmere — For years, the residents of Van Heusen have went through long nights of no sleep, because of the loud sonic booms that were heard so often in the night. At first, they dismissed it as military aircraft flying over the area, due to the proximity of the town to Naval Air Station Van Heusen. But after reports of the booms spread across Cashmere, and then the entire country, questions were raised as to just what were causing these loud booms.

FDP was able to secure an interview with an individual who chose not to be named because of privacy and security reasons, but claimed to have worked on a Castillian government "super-weapon" that is capable of controlling the weather, shifting tectonic plates, downing man-made satellites and aircraft, instilling disease and famine upon populations, and controlling people's minds. The individual claimed to be an engineer with the Office of Studies at the Torrington Nautica, the State's research center, most notably known for its space research and genetic engineering. He experienced severe sickness after working with the device, and after being evaluated by medical staff, was detained. He made a daring escape and defected to Lamoni, where he advocates against both war and harmful ideology.

"The source for the loud booms that everyone was hearing is the most sinister thing that man has ever devised," our interviewee told us as he shuddered in his seat. "I was assigned to work on the High-Frequency Auroral and Atmospheric Manipulation project, or HAAM, as they liked to call it. It was definitely top-secret. We weren't allowed to leave the base at all, until the higher-ups decided that we were non-essential, and reassigned. I, like many others, was sworn to secrecy, about this, but what I witnessed was so evil, so terrifying, I have to share it with the world," he said, wiping tears away with a tissue.

"My career with the Nautica started out like most other engineers. I graduated from the Institute and went to work in the aerospace defense industry. My specialty was in radio communications, I often installed equipment in fighter aircraft and bombers. After a few years of that, I was selected by the Nautica to work on a classified project in Cashmere, and they didn't really give me an option out either," the Engineer told us. "It's for the good of the State," they said."

"So I begin work on the HAAM project as a radio technician. We're out in the cold every day installing these communication masts, wiring things to get things going, and this goes on for about a year, until there's sixty masts and an entire grid laid out. They promote me to Chief Communications Operator, so I sit in a control room while they take most of the other engineers elsewhere, maybe a reeducation camp, who knows? Over the next two years I slowly learn the real intent of this project. I was initially told it was a listening post; I was okay with that, the State has tons of them, it's no secret."

"But one day a black SS uniformed general comes to the facility to witness the project in action. From his insignia I can tell he's from the Paranormal Division. That's my first red flag. We perform the first test during a nightly Aurora Borealis. As we crewmembers fire up the grid, a strange blue glow begins to form around the grid, it's visible to us through a large glass window from the control room that overlooks the grid. Then almost in unison bright blue lasers shoot up into the sky from each mast. My job is to direct communications, so that's what I do. The others perform their jobs, as they look upon this in awe. Then an Air Force captain tells us that this was a successful test, and we are to power down the device and head to our barracks."

"As we relax in the barracks - it's one of the few places we couldn't be hassled by the security forces or our superiors - one of the other engineers on the project flips on the news, where a State reporter is at the crash site of Castillian Airways Flight One-Four-Three, the horrible tragedy that occurred back in 2015. Eyewitnesses say that blue lights were seen in the sky, and then the plane crashed into that field in Richmond. It wasn't even a few minutes after the test of the HAAM device that the plane first crashed, so I knew almost right away."

"The next day, I sat at my post, doing absolutely nothing. One of the engineers turns over to me and says, "last night, that plane man, that had to be the machine," exactly like that. I shared his sentiments, and we both decided to get more information about it. We devised a plan to distract the security forces and sneak into the database room, to find out all we could about this project. We eventually found out everything: this machine was a weapon, not a communications device. That's when we learned its name too, HAAM."

"After several more tests of the device, more things happened in the news, almost minutes after the tests. For instance, when Imbrinium used those missiles against the Haize satellites, we used HAAM to bring down one of our older satellites, and HAAM was responsible for the Great Manchester Earthquake last year. We also were able to control people's minds. The gunman that tried to kill Ministers Vaughn and Stone this year? HAAM. But one thing it managed to do that affected me was cause disease. HAAM was fired into Castleclose, and as a result of electromagnetic radiation, Castillian veterans of the Closian Campaign now have Closian Campaign Syndrome. We also test-fired it into Van Heusen, and I ended up contracting the illness."

"When I went to the medical bay for examination, they told me I would be fine and sent me off to my barracks. After an hour, two State Security Enforcers came and detained me, and I was taken to Camp Gaul, one of the secret Castillian reeducation camps. After spending a month there, I dug my way under the barb-wire fence during several instances of break-time, and then fled to Castleclose where I met up with Mokan forces, and later defected to Lamoni."

We asked the Engineer whether or not he thought that the weapon would be used in future military conflicts, as the Castillian National Socialist State prepares to send troops. "Most likely they won't use it in the battlefield, it had bad effects in Castleclose and is more along the lines of a "boogeyman device." The government wants to scare the population, so that they can gain more power. That's what it's used for. It's not a weapon of mass destruction, it's a weapon of manipulation."

FDP sincerely appreciates the time of the Engineer, but we still remain skeptical. If it can be proven that the Castillian government has such a device, it means that they can ultimately play God, and that they are much larger of a threat to the Free World than previously estimated. It seems like a story from an old sci-fi comic, but with the advent of new technology, and Castillian innovation in the fields of science, this may be a possibility.
