Fleet Admiral Alonso Landry aboard the Sol class Superdreadnought
Hyperion. His second-in-command is PAU Admiral Gunju Yakuba aboard the
Yambi class Superdreadnought Nthanda. The fleet's survey ships,
including the Visionary class Explorer Pioneer, are led by UNSC
Commodore Kaitlin Chavez. The Japanese have assigned the Scanner Pickets
Fubuki and Yukikaze to back up the stretched thin UNSC survey ships
assigned to the mission.
What little OU history there is says that OU raider/recon groups have
been operating to gather intelligence on KV assets and capabilities very
early on. Think LRDG, as the OU designs are particularly well suited for
this. Recon rather than engagement, but just enough pinprick raids to
tie up 10-20 times their size in KV forces, even though they do very
little damage.
The OU has very good relations with some Phalon clans - which means some
others are deadly enemies.As regards the SV, anyone in contact with them
is quarantined, isolated.
Anyway... the UNSC survey ships will sometimes meet with OU long range
recon vessels who will give them tips. In case of major fleet
engagements, some of the OU heavy raiding forces will likely be along
shortly. Heavy on the repair, rescue and logistics craft, as they
really do go on 5 year missions way behind enemy lines. There'll be some
beacons and hidden supply caches too - think of the initials A.S. in
"Journey to the Centre of the Earth".
