I'm not disrespecting them, far from it, but the amount of posts on one event really isn't necessary. I'm going to stop commenting on this topic as D.C.R logic advises.
@Nickr
Provided you forget most of the 19th and 20th centuries, yes.
I'm not saying we shouldn't remember this, I'm just saying that the community should give more thought to other disasters on their days or anniversaries.
@Awsomur
True, but there are other events and tragedies that are under-stated. For example the Holocaust where over 12 million people died or the sinking of the RMS Lancastria are almost never posted about on their memorial days/anniversaries. There are other disasters that also need to be remembered.
@CaptainEssen
A yacht just outside our territorial waters was detected and a helicopter despatched to intercept it. This helicopter was shot down so a fighter that was standing by destroyed it with a laser guided bomb.
@CaptainEssen
@MTakach
We've detected a small vessel just outside our territorial waters. We have a special forces team inbound on board a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter and two AC-M47E Libellule fighters standing by.
@MTakach
Search them. We are sending special forces men to each of the thirteen yachts in our harbours and a Gloster Freive is orbiting, monitoring communications.
@Jim1the1Squid
No, but you wouldn't want it to explode. Put the reactor somewhere secluded.
Note that one of our carriers was almost completely destroyed twice, but the reactor didn't blow up.
@Nickr
Not just yet, but I will attempt it at some point.
@Awsomur
As you wish.
@Nickr
Clicky
I might build it some time.

@Nickr
No-one really knows about the RMS Lancastria do they?
Also it's September 11th.
It's spelt Al-Qaeda.

@MTakach
Ok, we have also recovered the corpses of one general, one major and three sergeants from the yacht we sunk.
@MTakach
Any news on the yacht you are boarding?
@CaptainEssen
All our units are returning to base, but we'll keep our Wedgetails airborne to detect any threats.
@CaptainEssen
The second aircraft's bombs were deadly enough, one of our aircraft was caught in the blast when the bomber was shot down.
@MTakach
Our Peregrines just shot down the bomber. Unfortunately its nuclear bomb detonated as it fell, destroying one of the attacking fighters.
@CaptainEssen
Careful, evidence recovered from the yacht shows they are nuclear weapons.
@CaptainEssen
The Agamemnon had launched two Peregrine fighters to intercept it.
@CaptainEssen
The divers have recovered five bodies, two of which seem to be senior commanders. One has plans for an atom bomb in his briefcase.
@CaptainEssen
Those two bombers are almost on top of you!
@MTakach
A yacht was already sunk. Could this be a second back-up?
@CaptainEssen
One of our E-7 Wedgetails is reporting two large bombers heading for Dark Bastion at Mach 1.5!
@CaptainEssen
We have already sent the SWS Thunderer to the last reported location with a specialist dive crew.

@CaptainEssen
Our helicopter has been shot down by a SAM! A Libellule is dropping a laser guided bomb onto the yacht.

@CaptainEssen
Ok. The Agamemnon will be useful in regular service in the meantime.
@Homemade
Sure, upload it.
@CaptainEssen
We are standing by.
@CaptainEssen
How are the repairs to the Deutschland coming along?
The Agamemnon is operational once more.
@CaptainEssen
I've seen the footage.
Post number six.
Fifth post in two hours.
"Look out, tank!"
"Blerge!"
Boom!!!
Very good!
@CaptainEssen
That would be great! The Agamemnon's new railguns would also come in useful.
@CaptainEssen
I'll send the ship there. The Agamemnon will be waiting for you in orbit.
@Jim1the1Squid
I suppose the smallest vessel that would find it useful would be a heavy cruiser.
@CaptainEssen
That's 30 hours. I'll send a Vengeance-class aircraft cruiser to oversee the launch if it takes place.
@Jim1the1Squid
Yes.
@Jim1the1Squid
I think warships are an exception to the rule.
@Jim1the1Squid
I've edited my previous comment.

@Jim1the1Squid
It's dangerous, very dangerous. However if treated right it is a very good fuel.
@Jim1the1Squid
600 grams per 15 years of service.
@Jim1the1Squid
Sure. I'll send some engineers as well to show you how to handle it.
@Jim1the1Squid
I'll send it on board a Drifter-C transport, escorted by four AC-M47E Libellule stealth fighters.
@Jim1the1Squid
Quite a bit, around $275 million. It is very expensive to mine, refine and even find in the first place.
