Complaint Against Validean Navy
« on: January 06, 2008, 06:36:25 AM »
On behalf of the Superintendents of the Loyanese Navy, I am filing a complaint against the Validean Navy for their actions against a military vessel of our nation. The ship in question, the L.C.S Mystica, was engaged on the 12th of August, at 19:50 local time in international waters north of Dysanii Proper. While no damage was done and a combat situation was avoided, we are seeking a full explanation from Validus regarding this incident, and possible disciplinary action against Validean personnel responsible.

The following is a testimony by Captain Lens Han, commander of the Mystica:

Quote
My ship was proceeding on a westward course along with the flotilla when the attack happen. the Validean carrier flotilla had been tailing us ever since we enter the Horn of Valhene towards our destination of Vancouver. At 19:45, I had my EOs conduct a diagnostic on our Electronic Warfare System, which missed a system maintenance back in Yaolin. I was aware of the Validean presence at this time, and hence selected a low grade jamming protocol to prevent any disruption to their military systems. Aiding us in the diagnostic was a Sea Hind 256 from the L.C.S Auress commanded by Captain Veng. They were to monitor and measure the emission of our jammer devices. We sped up to isolate ourselves from the rest of the flotilla to prevent any interference in the test.

Four and a half minute into our diagnostic, Sea Hind 256 detected incoming aircraft on it's radar and warned us. We immediately stopped the diagnostic and turned on our air search radar. We tracked two aircraft from the Validean fleet 83 km away, flying at supersonic attack speed directly towards our position. At first, I was unaware of their intentions hence activated our countermeasures. We attempted to hail the Valideans to determine their intentions. We received a reply stating that they were responding to an hostile act by us. At that time, none of our weapon systems were activated. I attempted a second hail, which I received a similar answer to.

Fearing the possibility of attack, I order my Lieutenant to steer the ship's bow towards the direction of the attackers in order to minimize damage from any anti-ship missiles. We promptly transmitted a distress signal from our IPO-regulated transponder, to state our in-hostilities. The Validean aircraft continue to head towards us and flew in an obvious attack pattern. Fearing the worst, I order the ship to be evacuated.

The Valideans did not drop their ordnance on us, but they did paint us with their fire control radar. After passing our ship, they continue to fly in attack pattern around our vessel. I immediately contacted my superiors on satcomm to report the incident. Ten minutes later, the Valideans discontinued their pursuit.

ooc: This is NOT how IPO is intended to work. If I had seen this earlier I would have reacted  faster.

IC

I ask the administration for permission to mediate in this matter between Loyan and Validus.
I propose a meeting of the delegates of both nations to talk about this complaint and look into the possibility to settle it to the satisfaction of both parties involved.
Should administration permit this and if both delegates wish for these talks I ask them to please present any evidence in their case.

Late at night the Valideen Ambassador to Delfos was woke by a phone call. "H-h-hello?" he said slightly groggy.

"Mr. Dresdon?" said a young voice on the other side of the phone.

"Yes, who may I ask is calling?"

"I have been told to contact you from my superiors in the Delfos Government. To inform you that that the Loyanese have filed a complaint against your government."

"What?" he said, rubbing his eyes, "About what? With who?"

"It was about the Naval incedent a few weeks ago and it was filed with the IPO."

"The IPO? We dont answer to them. Now good night." he hung up the phone and went back to sleep.

ooc well that was short, rude and arrogant as expected.  ;D

IC

I am sorry to inform the Loyan delegate that administration has not given a go ahead yet and Validus has refused to react to an invitation.
But IPO will keep your complaint on file for future reference.


On a personal note I would also wish to express my gratitude to Captain Lens Han on his handling of the incident.

ooc Shows of how afraid you are of such an organization gaining power and crippling your little "kill 'em all 'cause that's the only RP I can do" world. ::)
And because I feel like using harsh words. Too stupid to even RP a little incident handling it the diplomatic way.

IC I ask the current administration to file this case to the archives

OOC: @Pacha: Do you mean Project Artemis with the "little incident"? This was more or less planned to escalate, mainly with the goal to work toward a Taijituan world war which many said they would like to RP.

Nope this has nothing to do with "Project Artemis".
I am entirely referring to this topic.
Except if this topic has something to do with it which I don't see.
Sorry for any misunderstanding. :-[

We would like you to meet with Loyan government to discuss the following complain against your navy.

To: The IPO
From: Minister of Foreign Affairs Rickson

The incedent in question was done by the unprovoked assault on the Navigation and Communications equipment of Task Force Orion operation north of DYSFOR. We launched four fighter interceptors to investigate the source of the the jamming and it was a lone loyanese vessel. They took up a defensive posture and were manning their weapon stations as our jets did low fly bys to get the nationality of the vessel. We apologize for nothing and this was all done in accordance to our ROEs in the area. Nothing came of the incodent and we would appreciate it if you dropped this.

The statement given by the Valideen delegate seems in accordance with the information given by the Loyan captain.
It seems clear that the incident was the result of a series of misunderstandings and misinterpretations on both sides.
As both sides handled this incident in a responsible manner no  harm came from it.
If the Loyan delegate is satisfied with the statement from Validus I believe this issue solved.

On another note this shows how easily a incident can be produced.
I would like to propose that in the future any test of EW systems or weapon systems should either be done in territorial waters of that country or if done on open sea all other military vessels within range of such a test should be informed in advance.
What do the involved parties think of this?

Also I would like to ask all involved  to honor the IPO distress signal on future occasions.

The administration is appreciating the course of action, if Loyan representatives agree that this was a misunderstanding we should drop the complaint and maybe agree on making more understanding efforts in the future as the Terrangar representative suggests. Unless the Loyanese Navy claims there was damaged property or similar problems, we would like to close the complaint.

 You neglect the fact that our IPO standardized transponder was emitting what was clearly our identification and our business. Also, our personnel had no idea that such low graded EM interference sequence would had affected such a "sophisticated" fleet as the Validean Navy. Hence, our interference of your equipment was clearly unintended and accidental. The proper course your officers took should had been to hail our vessel and inquire about the event, and NOT send armed aircraft towards our position.

  Also, at the time of the attack, none of our weapons were manned. I will ask the Validus representative check on his facts before stating them.

  What your people did was clearly a show of military ma'choism, and we demand disciplinary action against your rabble officers.
