As the Thargoid offensive continues, authorities in Colonia have decided to step up security by building a new security installation in the region.

A spokesperson for the Colonia Council, which is overseeing the initiative, gave the following statement: The Thargoids have now entered the core systems, and their hostility shows no signs of abating. Meanwhile, Colonia's defensive capabilities remain limited. It is clear to us that the time to act has come.

Colonia Council has agreed to fund the operation , and has placed an open order for various mined resources for use in the construction. Pilots who deliver the requested resources to Dove Enigma in the Colonia system will be generously compensated.

Following the success of last month’s Federal-Imperial operation in the HIP 17692 system, the two superpowers have once again joined forces to combat the Thargoids.

This time, the operation will focus on the Arietis Sector XE-Z b4 system, where large concentrations of Thargoid ships have been reported.

The purpose of the two-pronged operation is to reduce the Thargoid presence in Arietis Sector XE-Z b4, and to recover black boxes and personal effects from Thargoid attack sites in the system. The latter initiative is being overseen by the Pleiades Resource Enterprise. Pilots who support the campaign will be eligible for substantial rewards.

Admiral Denton Patreus launched the campaign with the following statement: We know that militias of experienced combat pilots are particularly effective against the Thargoids, but we must not be complacent. Our enemies are formidable, and we underestimate them at our peril.

The Federation has launched an initiative to develop autonomous military hardware with which to fight the Thargoids.

The operation has received financial support from the Momoirent Central and Co, which has placed an open order for various commodities for use in the campaign. The organisation has also placed a kill order on all ships on its wanted list, to ensure those contributing to the campaign can do so in safety.

The Federation has launched an initiative to develop autonomous military hardware with which to fight the Thargoids.

Federal Shadow President Felicia Winters shed further light on the initiative, which has been christened the Bulwark Project: As the Thargoids' aggression escalates, it's essential that we find ways to minimise casualties while continuing to protect ourselves. Aegis is doing commendable work, but it needn't be our only line of defence. Imperial commentators have criticised the initiative, however, drawing attention to long-standing conventions against the development of artificial intelligence. Shadow President Winters was quick to dismiss such concerns, saying:

The purpose of the Bulwark Project is to investigate alternative defence strategies, not to develop machine intelligence. The operation has received financial support from the Momoirent Central and Co, which has placed an open order for various commodities for use in the campaign.
