Right, that's the exception that proves the rule, hence the S, M, L
designations. Say under Mass 100 = Small, Mass 101-300 = Medium, and
over 300= Large (adjust these as you will they're off the top of my flat ol'
head). So yeah, you may kinda know, but never really know..... I vote for
sized bogeys for installations, PSB rationalization by having
lots of sensor sweeps for passive/active radiation, mass, whatnot. Most
bases (relatively) easy to find. The ones that are hidden, well, then
'anything' goes. Even with the 'known' quantities, there are always
surprises.....

10:23:35 Captain Lopez,A.A. (324-556-101a): Sensors, give me a
tight-beam sweep of mass contact #32.

10:23:39 SenOp2gr. Paulson,T.S. (460-213-77t1): Yes Ma'am....
Scanning.... Mass near 270,000mt.... Energy Output.... Active 3700 s.u.,
Passive 5000 s.u..... Looks like one of their Delta-Two-Seven jobs,
Ma'am, Military Traffic Access and ops control.

10:25:04 Captain Lopez,A.A. (324-556-101a): SenOp, reclass 'Mass #32' a
hard contact with a D27 station. Statistics, Paulson?

10:26:21 SenOp2gr. Paulson,T.S. (460-213-77t1): Ummmm... Ma'am if I
remember correctly they have an comprehensive anti fighter grid, and some
small 30mkj Beamers but nothing else tactically significant.

10:28:46 Captain Lopez,A.A. (324-556-101a): Nav, get us in for a closer
look.

11:33:18 WepOp1gr. Burden,L.R. (335-901-1121): Launch Contact confirmed
from Mass #32, er D27 Ma'am. Beginning autointercept calculations.

11:33:22 Captain Lopez,A.A. (324-556-101a): Good, man. Sensors, what do
we have?

11:33:45 SenOp2gr. Paulson,T.S. (460-213-77t1): Incoming is a Magician
Type Missile time to impact with standard drive burn, 13 minutes, give or
take.

11:34:02 Captain Lopez,A.A. (324-556-101a): Weps, How's my autointercept
coming?

11:34:12 WepOp1gr. Burden,L.R. (335-901-1121): Primary and secondary
evasives are set and locked, Ma'am, intercept plan is set, guns are ready for
missile targetting.

11:34:20 Captain Lopez,A.A. (324-556-101a): You may fire when ready
Gridley.

11:34:35 WepOp1gr. Burden,L.R. (335-901-1121): Ma'am ?

11:34:37 Captain Lopez,A.A. (324-556-101a): Never mind. At your
convenience, Mr.Burden, please shoot that missile down.

11:34:42 WepOp1gr. Burden,L.R. (335-901-1121): Yes, Ma'am.
