Research Program

The Empire is diverting resources into the development of a ship AI, the Council believes that it will allow fleets to run operations more effectively.

This could also enhance any ship capabilities, such as course plotting, energy usage, maneuverability and deployment of assets, among other capabilities.

The project will be based on the HK Series AI, which will shorten the estimated research time to 2 weeks.

In addition, the Empire wants to contemplate the ability of deploying HK units in vacuum environments, giving the droids another capability, which will be ship boarding without the use of shuttles, this however, will not put the Leech Class shuttle in obsolescence, for standard boarding tactics will be used.

This side project will take 3 weeks, unless the AI program is halted or cancelled.
