Third Expeditionary Fleet Modernization Plan
Goals:
1. To bring the 3XF as close as possible to the Type 29 fleet plan, while remaining faithful to the fleet's unique mission parameters.
2. To minimize the drain on Star Army resources the plan would entail.

CARRIER BATTLEGROUP ALPHA codename Temple
The two carrier battlegroups have similar mission profiles to the core battlegroup, although their tasks are somewhat less glamorous. The carrier battlegroups are responsible for conducting extensive surveys of recently discovered systems, and follow-up type diplomatic missions to recently discovered civilizations, client states, and distant colonies. The carrier battlegroups may also be called to conduct short and long range recon, as well as search and rescue missions.

COLONIZATION RESOURCE GROUP codename Town Square
A colonization ship will allow the Third Expeditionary Fleet to improve its response time to colonization missions. Stationing the ship at Yamatai will allow the ship to be rapidly filled with volunteer colonists just before a colonization mission.
NL-X3-12 Hummingbird Unnamed REQUESTED
AGRICULTURE GROUP codename Prefecture
The Third Expeditionary Fleet currently acquires its food supplies from both Yamatai and Ohara, causing unnecessary drain on Imperial resources. A Noujou-class agriculture ship stationed at Anisa will provide ample food supplies for the entire fleet, with the leftover supplies can and will be redistributed to the rest of the fleets.
NL-X3-13 Noujou Unnamed REQUESTED
LOGISTICS GROUP codename Market
These ships are responsible for transporting supplies and personnel from Yamatai and other Yamataian planets and ships to the fleet and vice versa. As a deterrent to pirates, these ships are as heavily armed and armored as many other Star Army ships, and frequently travel with unoccupied ships from the Strategic Strike Pool as escorts.
