Doctor Lawson, Judging from the performance of the R-302 on this mission, I believe we need to take different approach. I understand the cloak on the ship wasn't operational yet, but that is merely one problem. I believe the chassis of the 302 is inadequate for the task as a whole. Consider the R-302 project de-prioritized. We will still use the other one as a stopgap measure, but I am reallocating your resources (As well as allocating more funding from our research budget) to developing a dedicated craft for the task. Specifications as follows:
- Native low EM and heat signature to increase stealth capability without cloak
- Sprint hyperspace drive. Possibly a dual drive. It will be more expensive, but a dedicated recon craft will not have to be produced in as great numbers as the F-302.
- Depending on the native stealth capability, research into shielding the craft. I can try to get you the specs of a puddle jumper to give you a lead. Even if the shield lasted only between jumps, it would do.

That being said, your work on the sensors and communications suite is nothing short of perfect. Final note regards the 'ejection' system. Your work saved a man's life today. The pilot in question is in medbay 2 if you want to visit him. I want all of my fighters outfitted with the system as soon as possible.

While discussing strategy, Ariadne mentioned the rings are capable of locking onto a cloaked ship. Is there a way to use this to let us pinpoint cloaked ships in the area?

URGENT: Prepare several beacons powerful to punch through the conventional beaming jammers, we may need them rather soon. There should be transmitters powerful enough available in the armory.[/i]

Lawson sighed, he didn't like hearing of the use of biological weapons and the idea of beating beaming jammers. Not to mention did she mean getting passed shields or getting passed actual technological jammers. Though he supposed he could do both. He turned around the small auxiliary control room. Not enough room to begin working on the beacons in here he needed the space from the Core Lab, three hexagon rooms connected to a central room where multiple departments could collaborate. He didn't really need the assistance of the other departments however he did need the space of the lab which should be empty, or for all he knew. 

It was only a short walk there and he was somewhat disappointed to see other people already present, including the weapons [i]expert[/i] who had just so happened to upgrade most of the weapon systems without the paper work which meant that she needed to be on board. He didn't know what she was up to but he was sure he wanted to play absolutely no part in any of it. He entered the physics part of the lab passing everyone else offering them a curt not. Once he had entered the entryway to the physics section he picked up one of the phones and spoke into it. "This is Dr.Lawson in the Core Lab, I need the transmitters that have been laid aside by the Captain for me brought up from the armory immediately." Once he received an affirmative he walked over to the computer and booted it up. Looking at the status of the transmitters. They were powerful enough to be detected from the other side of the system though the problem was getting a lock through the jamming. Then two ideas came to him at the same time. He pulled out a small EMP generator out from a storage cabinet and also a small naquadah cell. This should be easier than he had expected it to be.
