Allied State Secretary:
"Sir since our last Survey Voidship has been deemed obsolete, the BAe (British Aerospace) just called us. They are ready to produce a working prototype based on Captain Kaos proposal. Here are the message from Sir Alex Howard, BAe Chief Marketing:
Good evening gentleman and maam. I'm delighted to been able to join the fine Directorate and to promote our latest advancement in space exploration.
As you gentlemen had already knew, the last Survey Ship Discovery had just been pensioned in 2003 after surveying inner solar systems, since then the AN didn't had any survey capable ship. Based on one of your officers design, our team at SpaceArk Orbital Shipyard had finished the first prototype of new generation Survey Ship, that the our designer called Inquirer class Geosurvey Ship.
BAe Inquirer class Cruiser 6,750 tons 244 Crew 573 BP TCS 135 TH 250 EM 0
1851 km/s Armour 1-31 Shields 0-0 Sensors 6/6/0/4 Damage Control Rating 2 PPV 0
MSP 106 Max Repair 100 MSP
Rolls-Royce I625 Nuclear Thermal Engine (4) Power 62.5 Fuel Use 10% Signature 62.5 Armour 0 Exp 1%
Fuel Capacity 150,000 Litres Range 399.8 billion km (2500 days at full power)
BTL ST1-6 Thermal Sensor (1) Sensitivity 6 Detect Sig Strength 1000: 6m km
BTL SE1-6 EM Sensor (1) Sensitivity 6 Detect Sig Strength 1000: 6m km
Geological Survey Sensors (4) 4 Survey Points Per Hour
This design is classed as a Commercial Vessel for maintenance purposes
The new prototype will finish just in a few days and we will send it to you after new year party. We hope the new survey ship can help the Alied Nations and human cause in exploring new place for Humanity."

It had thinner hull (1 vs 2) but I don't now why we want survey ship armored (it now had whooping 1800 km/s thanks to 4 Engines. But if you like the ore armored version we can up the Armor Hull back to two (speed wil drop to 1700 km/s). 4 Geosurveys? It is more heavy than the Reich Survey Ship Wissen (2 Geo) and more faster than Wissen (1700 km/s). Although the Inquirer are more bigger (2 times the Wissen size). I really don't know which one are superior, but since the Inquirer had more Geosensor and more faster it may finishing Space Surveys more faster than the Wissen.)
I suggest that later, when we go fully TN and get all rollin' with the Solar colonization and exploitation, we should find a suitable moon/asteroid/planet and get a 'shadow base' over there. You know, Deep Space Tracking Station, small shipyards, a garrison squad, something like that.
From what I know, Mars and Venus are in the range of Earth based level 5 DSTS, even Jupiter are in range of Easrth Level-10 something DSTS. The only 'safe' place when you free from Earth based eye are Uranus and Neptunus. Those was pretty far away, and for earth to detect some 100 Thermal signal is to had more than 20 DSTS. At lower tech that is, at higher tech level, we can't really escape the DSTS eye, except if we jump arenot in Earth...

From Conspiracy Theorist Magazine CONSORT! Proudly presents:
Allied Nations Organization Hierarchy for Dummies:
As other 'democratic' country, Allied Nations had 3 division of power: Legislative, Executive and Judicial Power.
1. Legisative:
- Allied General Assemby (AGA): A parliamentary body with members from various state, they represent People Voice of Allied Nations Members States. The number of membership of a country are based on population and economic contribution to Allied Nations, so USA, Britain and France are still the majority member. The purpose of AGA are to make mutinational Common Law, decide the AN annual spending, and in theory control the Directorate from become to powerful with their veto rights and impeachment capabilities, but since the Directorate control most AGA member through various means, this never happens.
- Various Member State internal parliament or equivalent body. They can decide the nations internal law as long as it didn't conflict with AGA Common Law. In last few year, they just become AGA paws...
Executive:
Allied Nations Executives are commonly called the Directorate. When the economic crisis hit Member States in late 80s, various Allied Nations organization leader had their power temporary expanded to help interfering with the members nation economy and industry capacity with the purpose of quicker economic recover, but since then the Directorate never step down from their supposed temporary power and instead they consolidate and centralized the power in them. And then the Directorate was born, an Oligarchy with Democracy mask.
1. ANSEC: ANSEC is really just what the highest military command in AN called. Historically it had 5 members (hence the name Councils, not like today) but since the Third Arab War in early 1990, the command had been simplified into two person (called First Members and Second Members) for unknown reason. Then, since the Second Members died in 1998, there had been no replacement for the Second Member, So ANSEC are headed by one man, and the current one is Sheb (it is hypothesized as a codename, not a real one, since ANSEC Head never show himself in public, also since Sheb was always the First Member since 1970s, so it can't be one person.)
ANSEC subordinates: ACFC (Alied Central Fleet Command, the AN Space Navy HQ), ADFC (Allied Defense Force Command - Yeah... defense my ass, this one control the Planet Army, air force, wet navy, army you name it), ASA (Allied Security Agency) and AMPO (Allied Multinational Police Organization or Multipol, there are rumors that the Multipol had special Secret Police Division, but it's still unconfirmed).
2. ANEA. The almighty ANEA, started as a very humble Allied created body that tasked to help the new members economy develops and try to close the gap between the Old and the New Allied Nations Members. It is only provide voluntary advice and pretty much powerless. But it a change when the 80 Economy Crisis sap the whole world. Entire stock market and bank system collapse, financial chaos everywhere, then the parliaments of Allied Nations members start to look for ANEA help. And what a help, within just 6 years the economic damage was patched with centralized draconian measure that reside in ANEA hand. ANEA also help established new government supplanted the old government that lose pubic support in economic recession. No country dared to against ANEA, since it means economy isolation. That make ANEA indirectly control the AN, not with gun, but with stomach.
ANEA subordinates: ANSGCAS (Allied Nations State Governance and Civil Administration Secretariat) also known as the SEC-Cabinet - headed by ANEA directly appointed Allied State Secretary (ASS), various presidents or prime ministers of various member state reported directly to ASS with various Departments of Secretary handle various Economic and Industrial fields. ANSGCA had a very strong power to decide who can become president or prime minister so they figuratively trying to 'lick' and 'kiss' the ASS, and since current ASS are a woman it is a double irony; ANEA also are the superior of various social Multinational Organization of Old like the the Allied Nations Patent Bureau, Allied Free Speech and Information Bureau, World Labor Organization, World Child and Mother Care Initiative, and much more.
ANSA: The result of World War 2 scientific effort between USA, France and Britain gave birth to ANSA. After the war, ANSA still become the pace which various innovative technology invented in Allied Nations. It's role was become much more important since the Energy Crisis and the post-TN space race. Although the ANSA didn't had any political or military power, it was needed to ensure the Allied Nations still had technological superiority over the Reich. Thus since the early days of TN-era, ANSA was pretty much close with ANSEC and ANEA.
ANSA direct subordinate are ARLaN (Allied Research Laboratories Network), ARLaN was loosely conglomeration of private, university, corporation or government laboratories grouped based on similarity research field and geography proximity. This to ensure each labs result can be quickly distributed, copied and perfected to ensure maximum research efficiency. ANSA also was the superior of various science related multinational organization like IAU, WHO, Allied Red Cross Organization, ISO, and others.
ANFA: or more exactly Office of Allied Nations Foreign Affairs,. This brach is as old as the Allied Nations itself, after the war, ANFA was heavily involved in the dipomacy with Reich, and various independent nations. It employs thousands of diplomats and foreign analyst. Since their important rulle, ANFA always had very close relationship with ANSEC, hence it position in the Directorate.
ANFA subordinate: ADC (Alied Diplomatic Corps) that lead various embassies around the world and employ foreign relation analysts, that provide latest information from around the world. ANS (Allied News Service) the official mass media controlled by AN that spews whatever the AN want the public and world to believe. and AIC (Allied Intelligence Central), the main Allied intelligence agency, that employ spies (and assassins) around the world, they work to clean up whatever Allied mess was and most Conspiracy Theory are revolved around them. The AIC was an old rival with Reich Abwehr...
ANMoT: Started as part of ANSGCAS, the ANMoT was recently elevated into Directorate level. The advent of space capable ship and the enormous logistics associated with it, the importance of space colonization and the realization that space was 'new land' to expore and conquer, make it was a very important to the Directorate that the power that control it firmly remain in direct Directorate control. With Commercial Shipping become a realization, the ANMoT got a new things for them to handle.
ANMoT currenty control: BoSC: Bureau of Space Corporation, any civilian corporation that want to operate in space must first register in BoSC and then the BoSC wil regulate the permit and various rules that the Civilian must obey. No wonder currenty there are only one corporation monopolize the Civilian Space Shipping sector.
