--General update on AIF, post Sith War--

(New projects later)

-Telos-

With a peace treaty having been signed with the Resurgent Axis, resulting in an end to the Earth-Sith War, major changes are happening at Telos. The Telos Defense Grid, having been kept on high alert as the war continued on, stands down from high alert to a more passive alert status. The warp detectors are still active, and ship traffic is monitored, but traffic is allowed to pass through freely, and warping is allowed to occur through the grid.

Families, sent to escape the predicted invasion of Earth, board passenger vessels to return home. Not everyone leaves, and many evacuees have become permanent residents of the booming colonies. Industrial complexes, once geared toward emergency wartime production, now switch to civilian products. Vast agricultural tracts are booming, and an unprecedented number of grain shipments travel to and from Earth, Tenelapis, and other human colonies.

-Fondor-

At the secret base of Fondor, in the asteroid belt of the Telos System, numerous AIF ships are being mothballed. With the Sith threat at an end, and with the German aerospace fleet being vastly inferior to the AIF's, it was decided to cut expenses. Centurions, Novas, Guardian of Hopes, and numerous other ships are having their numbers sliced as much of their ranks are put in to storage orbits.

With the ships inactive, and new production slowed to a crawl, the income for the AIF's asteroid mining is being used to pay off war debts from the Earth-Sith War. While ship production has slowed drastically, production of other items has been slowed down to a much lesser degree. Several new projects are being planned, from new and exotic fighter programs, to new bases and infrastructure, along with new technologies.

-Earth-

With evacuees returning to Earth from Telos, the cities of the AIF Home Islands are once again bustling with activity. Companies are returning to their former strength, and new civilian opportunities are abundant. Due to technological progress from the war, certain military technologies are making appearances in the civilian market, most notably, anti gravity systems and microfusion reactors.

Already, Mercury Corp has released civilian versions of their tank microfusion cores, and there is talk of an offshoot from Gilliam Motorcars that will produce a civilian version of the SC-30 AG Hoverbike. All in all, the AIF is in a post war boom.
