Raiding Group 15

The Raiding Group has been formed to execute a surprise raid on the Federation defense outpost at Derigo along the inner edge of the Federation's Fishly Sector. This will be a traditional fast attack to destroy shipping and to disrupt Star Fleet's rear area. Success in destroying the defense outpost will also partially open a path for an attack on Starbase 10.

Orders. The Raiding Group will proceed to the vicinity of Federation Defense Outpost 797. There it will attack all Federation shipping and destroy any defending war vessels. The primary objectives will be any merchant and transport ships found in the target area. If possible, the outpost should be destroyed also. Due to the limited number of replacement vessels, losses are to be kept to a minimum and must at least be proportional to the war vessel losses of the enemy.
