Jelbic Empire reinstates Zaar Fleets under Vanukean command with upcoming deployment to Port Swedes

February 5571

Kaliburg, Kalistan - With a discussion on both the procurement of several Kaliburg-class destroyers - a marvel of Kalistani engineering and firepower that has mostly gone unnoticed by world powers in prior centuries - and the extension of Vanuku's 1st Fleet with Beiteynuese forces under Wiel's direct command having been years in the works with Kaliburg, the Kohav finally confirmed the new mandates of the Beiteynuese Naval Command, received directly by the Emperor of the Jelbic Empire and honourary Commander-in-Chief of the Beiteynuese Defence Force.

After almost a century of Zaar Fleets having been disbanded, the Jelbic Empire will reinstate them with a different flavour this time: they will fall under the direct command of Wiel, not Himmelshtern.

The deployment in Port Swedes will compliment and attach directly to Vanuku's 1st Fleet, which has been present in Kalistan since 5562; the fleet will consist of 2 Kotor-class frigates of joint Kundratijan-Yeudi design already assembled in the shipyards of Etxea, 1 Sa'ar 6-class corvette packing Barak surface-to-air missiles manufactured by Beir Leshet in Beiteynu and 1 Kaliburg-class multi-purpose destroyer procured at the hefty price of almost 4.5B and set to undergo sea trials together with the rest of Vanuku's 1st Fleet in the coming years.

Personnel will consist of members of the Beiteynuese Defence Force and the Jelbic Empire, in equal measure. Procurement costs have mostly been covered by Vanuku, while maintenance and operations expenses have been budgeted under the Beiteynuese Government.
