ITN Nagato
Yamato Class Battleship
1st Imperial Armada
Operation Tetsu no ken
The Taiyou flagship lurched forward as it sailed through the event horizon of the Hyperspace window. As it lurched and came to a stop, the distant Chemias system loomed before them. Admiral Yamamoto studied it, observed it, watched in silence as the battles and events unfolded in front of him.
Crown Prince Shimizu stood in silence behind the Admiral. The authorization for an all out and crippling surprise attack had been given. The juggernaut Taiyou war machine was churning forward on the small cluster of systems that was Cybran space.
Taiyou crewmen worked diligently as the rest of the fleet came out of Hyperspace in a broad formation that spanned several AU from the tip of the spear, to the rear echelons. 150,000 Taiyou combat ships, and 300,000 logistical tenders and support ships remained in a formation that could span an entire star system.
The tension was thick and the air was heavy with anticipation as the Admiral watched the events unfold. "Friendlies and neutrals are in the system, Admiral." A Lieutenant reported, turning to face the Admiral. "Mind friendly and neutral targets." He reported, while the juggernaut Taiyou fleet approached.
Shimizu remained silent, before offering the Admiral a silent nod.
Yamamoto too nodded, then nodded to his command officer.
"Begin the attack."
ITN Ryūhō
Shokaku Class Carrier
Commander Yusuke Aikawa
The Taiyou commander received the word from the Nagato, and he watched the displays as several Carriers prepared their fighters for launch.
"Industrial and Moored Military targets, Ports, Roads, and any logistical devices the Cybrans may field. Complete surprise." The Commander ordered, and once the signals were broadcast, each Taiyou ship began to launch their complement of Torpedo bombers, long range strategic bombers, fighter craft, Jet Tengu, and Sudden Transports, millions of these craft began to soar towards the Chemias system, mapping and plotting across an entire solar system's worth of space.
One by one the fighters engaged their Interplanetary drives, and flickered out in a whimper of quantum energies, only to jump in across the Chemias system, fanning out amidst SEC, Dark Rain, and Cybran ships, the smaller Taiyou fighter craft spread out to do their work.
"Target the Cybran ships, leave none standing!" The Pilot called out from his Fugaku class heavy bomber, which soared through flak, exploding shells, and energy weapons discharge to deliver it's initial payload. A Cybran Battleship would likely be cracked in two as the Quantum warhead detonated across it's hull, causing a wink in space and time and tearing the ship asunder.
Brilliant white and yellow explosions of this magnitude ripped across the Cybran fleet as Taiyou fighters, bombers and other strike craft bobbed and weaved around weapons fire. Some of them took hits, and went down in a fiery storm, but for every Fighter, or Bomber the Cybrans managed to destroy, ten thousand took it's place. It seemed that there were millions, if not tens of millions of fighter signatures popping up across the scanners of all three systems while Taiyou fighters, and bombers bobbed and weaved through weapons fire, ignoring SEC and Dark Rain Signatures, and going straight for the Cybran ships, and the Cybran Shipyards.
Across the Chemias System
The Taiyou attack was swift as it was overwhelming, with millions of small fighters moving about through the system one thing was clear. These newcomers were targeting Civilian, Logistical, and Industrial targets as well as moored ships, space stations and anything from factories to ship yards. Moving to bomb them through overwhelming numbers, as it seemed that Taiyou ships just kept coming.
The whole solar system was suddenly alight in destruction, as the Taiyou surprise attack was carried out across the Entire star system. The Cybran fleet would be spread thin to deal with these threats all at once.
The SEC and Dark Rain, as well as the Taiyou ships would receive a message from the Commander of the first wave.
"Tora! Tora! Tora!"
The Cybrans would have been caught completely by surprise.
