SRPA Intelligence Memorandum 4

Subject: Chimeran Aerial Battleships Sighted

9-Aug-52

''At 0400 reconnaissance teams spotted two very large Chimeran aerial battleships approximately three miles off the coast of San Francisco. the vessels were just outside the range of SRPA 3's long range AAG. The vessels did not attempt to attack or further approach the city. We believe they may have been testing the range of our anti-aircraft batteries.''

''this marks the fifth sighting of these aerial vessels. Analysts estimate there may be as many as ten battleships and over 100 similar fighters in their fleet. It is unclear why the Chimera have not yet attempted an aerial strike using these ships. we suspect they are still producing more vessels and will not attack until their fleet is large enough to penetrate our AAG installations. Upgrades to AAGs and mobile artillery are currently underway across at SRPA bases.''
