Operational note
Why this vessel matters.
Hull and weapon signatures align with an engagement sequence absent from the surviving military chronology.
The ship’s command deck produces timing conflicts severe enough to support the theory of multiple erased campaigns.
Treated by the UNA as both evidence and temptation: proof that lost war assets might be recoverable at scale.
A recovered dreadnought changes the scale of the fleet question. If a command-level vessel can return with substantial integrity, the consequences extend beyond identifying a single anomaly to strategic planning. The available registry facts do not reveal the mechanism of return or prove a particular actor's intentions; they explain why the Retribution receives separate scrutiny.
