RID 102 - Defence of Subterrel Strike Force
The ships of the Subterrel Strike Force were slowly drifting through space, accompanied by about a dozen of transports and some fighter squadrons on patrol patterns. The Strike Force was awaiting the return of the A-Wings, which went on their recon missions.
Luren Ketan was sitting in his office, reading the status reports of the Strike Force's ships. It seemed that all 17 ships were fully operational and ready for orders in case the recon missions would require immediate action.
Ketan activated his ringing comlink.
"Any news from the A..", Ketan interrupted his question as the red alarm started to sound.
"Hostile ships just dropped out of hyperspace about 2 clicks in front of our transports. It seems we have the company of 2 ISDs, 3 VSDs, 4 Acclamators and 2 Broadsides. Fighters are engaging to intercept enemy bombers.", reported the RID officer on duty.
"Put me through to the Task Forces, and make sure two corvettes will protect the Redemption as fighter defense. I am afraid the captain will be trying to welcome our new guests sooner than anyone else."
"Roger, sir. Link established."
"RID officers on all ships, make sure to concentrate your firepower with each other. Don't let your ships drift away. And someone get those transports out of the line of fire. Ketan out."
