Scouting the outlying sectors
Eastern Marches
During the Exterminator War, Humanity agreed to start a program of scouting the “eastern” sectors; DF, DJ, EF, EG, EH, EI and EJ. Details of these efforts can be found at Martyn Pott's IISS page (the NSC, ESC and SSC links).
Remaining Marches
At the inter-polity summit at NEW MARS in 3211, it was agreed that this program be extended to all adjacent sectors as it was appreciated that an enemy could come from any direction.
The following is the current state of scouting (outside the Eastern Marches):
- AF - MSN 2C5A, 1SCI IEN 5C5 (from T101)
- AG - MSN 2C5A, 1SCI
DEFICIENT 5 VESSELS - AH - RNV 3 SCI, 5C5S (from T101), 1 LSSI GFA 12xC1-S, 1xLSSI
- AI - RNV 8C5S (from T101)
- AJ - IEN 5C5 (from T101)
- BF - MSN 2C5A, 1SCI IEN 5C5 (from T101)
- BJ - FWAN 8C1AS IEN 4C5 (from T101)
- CF - MSN 2C5A, 1SCI IEN 5C5 (from T101)
- CJ - MSN 1C5A, 1SCI UXN 3DDI, 1AMI LONAW 1AMI, 2C5A
Each sector requires around 8 scouting vessels (C1S counts as half and C5A are less than ideal in their sensors but can self-support with logs).
