Region: The Hole To Hide In

The Great Cargo Airship
Det Norske Luftfartselskap, a Vikan aircraft manufacturer, began development of what they refer to as the “Great Cargo Airship”. The design was an advanced, heavyweight, massive aircraft utilizing six high-bypass turbofan jet engines mounted underneath a sprawling highwing frame. The front of the aircraft would be able to open into a massive cargohold that can carry 335,000kg (782,641 lbs) using Alpha Motors AM970-84-CE Turbofan engines. The plane would have an estimated range of 15,400 km (9,600 mi). It should be noted that it has a max fuel load of 600,000 pounds, meaning at max fuel load, the aircraft only has a little less than 200,000 pounds of carrying capacity.

Operation Faith was a simple smash-n-grab information effort and the knowledge gathered confirmed the sneaking suspicions that the Vikan government and ViFIC had. The agents would be recalled home to minimize risk of being exposed, especially so shortly after diplomatic negotiations.

Rykensvik had quietly confirmed that Kulkkistan was not the free nation that its diplomat had claimed it to be. It was led by a theocratic autocrat who demanded absolute subservience through faith. Furthermore, ViFIC had discovered traces of something known as the June Massacre which may explain why they could not make contact with any underground resistance. As such, Rykensvik will maintain a very vigilant watchful eye on Kulkkistan for any sign of anti-democratic tampering on the international scene.

Watching Prolekult
It wouldn’t take long for word of the Prolekult situation to spread within the Vikan government as it would hear about it through communications with Amberleaf, and Solingarch. The brewing conflict there was much too far away for Rykensvik to involve itself with. Furthermore, it is a nation that it has had no chatter with previously nor has it been invited to participate by another nation. Rykensvik will simply be keeping an eye on the situation.

Trading Seibalath
The offer for trade was accepted by the Office of Foreign Affairs.

Diplomacy with Nonadia
The diplomatic meeting with the Nonadian representatives was a success with the formalization of several diplomatic agreements, a Non-Aggression Pact, establishment of embassies, and the opening of trade for economic growth.
