Ever since the Dark Zephyr managed to draw out the hidden enemies and expose them to the sight of the Bluejay Fleet, Ves and the others immediately started to analyze their opposition.
Several facts immediately stood out. The enemy composition was anything but normal.
"There are not a lot of warships in the enemy fleet, but all of them appear to be stealth capable." Ves immediately noted. "All of them are sub-capitals, which makes sense as it is much harder for them to smuggle capital ships past our monitoring network."
Admiral Tensen nodded in agreement. "It becomes exponentially harder and costlier to apply active stealth to larger hulls. Any capital ship that can enter into stealth is a strategic asset that is almost as important as a dreadnought. It is unthinkable for the cosmopolitans to be able to secretly build or steal such an extravagant vessel, especially in the Red Ocean where they do not enjoy several millenia's worth of material accumulation."
