More actions
The second largest branch of the Chisel Enterprises Military Union, Die Luftschiffeflotte (Literally: "The Airship Fleet", represents a new direction for the corporation. Thrust into the limelight in the Morsehead Conflagration, the branch underwent a significant change, becoming one of the most powerful air fleets in the world.
Origins
The origins of the Luftschiffeflotte began with the construction of the Revenant-I line of ships in 3017. Relatively small to today's standards, it was still the most powerful air fleet on Terra with the only possible exception being the Federation (and later Wiltshire's) Starfleet. However, it saw effectively no action beyond the Federation-C.E. war. While the Kampfgrüppe and Kriegsmarine enjoyed extensive funding and modernization during the Morsehead administration, the Luftschiffeflotte was left to stagnate due to it having no real direct competition or use. Still utilizing the Revenant-I class of ship, which was quickly becoming outdated, it was clear that the Luftschiffeflotte was the least important branch of the Chisel Enterprises military. The Tauran arrival on Terra would change all that.
