(OOC: If you want to join by helping us, please PM me) Laddneian News Report Earlier today the largest cyber attack this side of the century was unleashed upon the Mateo2 supercomputer based in Leraq, and the ITP computer chips in most UHAA electronic systems. One repercussion of the attack is the loss of all contact and life support systems on the UHAA observed lunar colony of Leraqi Rhea. The astronauts are expected to be able to survive for only the next week on emergency supplies. The Laddneian ambassador to the AA on SC1, Lord Hejolvik, has sent out a message to the AA and all nations asking for backup servers and a space rocket that can be used to save the astronauts. All Leraqi and Laddneian space rockets will take too long to launch, and so we are pleading for any already launched or prepared rockets from foreign nations. Meanwhile efforts are being made to isolate and destroy the computer virus without shutting down all North Hesperian internet. Any nations with cyber expertise are begged to offer help in this crisis. Edited by Greater Laddneia, Mar 25 2011, 06:25 PM.

Location: UHAA Central Headquarters, Nogorrod, Laddneia Time: 6:30 UTC +2 Alterran Time ![]() Pyotr Hekl, the Laddneian ambassador to the UHAA, turned to the Leraqi ambassador to the UHAA, and said, 'Sir, this problem will get rapidly out of control if we don't do anything now. Yes, you may have switched control of nuclear weapons over to manual, but every single UHAA military item using an ITP chip is still infected. To what extent, we still don't know, and are looking for anyone with the expertise to help. Fortunately, I've heard some people from Justosia are considering lending a helping hand, though we don't know in what context yet. On the subject of the team on Rhea, well, without a rocket ready, I'd give them 168 hours before the backup oxygen runs out.' T= -168hrs Edited by Greater Laddneia, Mar 25 2011, 08:40 PM.

![]() Nido Royal Air Force Base, Avalon District; 14:56 hours. "Special Mission SA-1 is a go. Clearance from Royal Palace and Defense Ministry to launch. FR-2 Sigilio Halcon permission to lift off. Estrella Puerta Space Station also alerted in case respective docking is needed. Contact Laddneian Defense Ministry or respective entity before entering their airspace to confirm landing permission. May Yahweh and the Holy Trinity be with you. Tower out." "I know we signed a non-aggression treaty with Laddneia, BUT that aint an alliance, right Fabian?" RAF pilot, Lieutenant Javier Roma asked his co-pilot. "Yea, BUT The Royal Administration has made it clear that they want an unofficial mutual alliance with Greater Laddneia too, to help preserve greater Hesperian peace as they are as advanced as we are pretty much. Top brass said there can't be an official alliance with Laddneia as they are UHAA, and we're PATO. Would be a conflict of interest." Now, let's do this." RAF pilot, Lieutenant Fabian Cortez replied. "Tower this is FR-2 Sigilio Halcon call sign Alpha Estrella. Lifting off......now."

OOC: PM me or Laddneia to join the conference. The Leraqi Prime Minister, Fred Dickson rung Justosia and the conversation followed thus, 'We are eternally grateful for your efforts! The lives of our astronauts will be eternally in your favour!' Joules Jackson the cyber minister present at the conference replied to Pyotr Hekl later to inform him of the plan of action. 'We are sorry for the crisis unfolding in UHAA and its global effect on technology with ITP chips. We have a basic plan of action...' He outlined a basic strategy thus: 1) Leraq has invested P'$200m in tracking packages hitch hiking the data the virus is sending via internet. We can see now that the virus is from somewhere above the equator, although clever masking of exact position is in place. We also know that it is only sending non-classified data, like the computers which have ITP chips. If any sensitive data is shared before we can isolate the virus, Northern hemisphere internet shut down may be necessary. 2) The virus morphs its code every 0.5 seconds making it difficult to find. We have generated a shut down code that can be put into effect when, in 3 weeks time, when, hackers have predicted, the virus changes into a very weak form. We will be poised and ready. 3) We need to locate the country of origin, and launch physical attacks on the area. 4) Meanwhile if any units contain data of very high importance or could be especially dangerous if being controlled by the enemy, like nuclear military equipment, new redesigned chips are being supplied by UHAA at the cost of ITP. 5) Any nations with cyber expertise are asked to send technicians to the conference here in UHAA HQ to help this developing crisis. He leaned back on his chair and waited for responses. Edited by Leraq, Mar 25 2011, 09:11 PM.

![]() Bordering Laddneian airspace. The FR-2 neared the point of communication on the border of GL airspace. "This is Pilot Lieutenant Javier Roma of the Justosian Royal Air Force on Space Aid Mission One to your aid. Please confirm permission to enter your airspace and land at nearest suited base."

![]() ![]() Space Aid Mission One, this is tower controller Jorn Vetsel, you are cleared to enter Laddneian airspace along flightpath 03 Delta, and to land at runway 90 at IP Drofriaf 15nmi bearing heading 040. A team of ground crew will meet you upon you arrival. Pyotr Hekl took a while to consider the Leraqi's response. 'Firstly' he said, 'your third point declares launching physical attacks on the nation in hand. Is this really necessary? After all, the chances are it's not a government thing, in fact, it's almost definitely a terrorist attack! I would advise you to abstain from physical invasion until further information. Secondly, I have just received news that a Justosian jet has entered our airspace with permission to aid in the retrieval of the Rhean team. I will send Under Ambassador Fenroll August, one of our more sensible female staff members, to the IP base to welcome them and brief them.' Edited by Greater Laddneia, Dec 12 2011, 02:54 PM.

The FR-2 touched down and soon after the 2 pilots stepped foot on GL soil and waited for the ground crew...... |

Fenroll walked up to the pilot of the Justosian aircraft which had just landed at the airbase. She said to him, 'Good morning sir, Under Ambassador Fenroll August. I trust you flew pleasantly? Now, we have no time for chit chat. How can we help you get into orbit as quickly as possible?' T= -167hrs Edited by Greater Laddneia, Mar 26 2011, 07:43 AM.

Joules Jackson replied to Hekl, saying 'It is understood that this will probably be a terrorist operation, but a physical attack on their base in collaboration with their government may be necessary to eliminate the threat. Additionally, we request the Justosians transfer their craft to LAFSS West in Leraq, where specialist facilities exist for the speedy recovery of the astronauts upon their safe return. We also request Justosia to take a Leraqi Air Force official with them to help with the location and recovery of the astronauts on the Rhean base. Leraq is also still desperately pleading for help destroying the virus infecting the ITP chips. Whilst it still exists, virtually all UHAA advanced weaponry remains potentially faulty.' |

LAFSS The 2 Lieutenants watched as the base's top technicians inspected their FR-2 for any kinks, and for space flight. "Boys she doubles as a recon plane AND our nation's space shuttle. She's ready to go trust. Now, what else need be done?" |
