The Kill

Around 100 pilots were involved in the destruction of a single supercarrier in the DAYP-G system. The engagement produced a single recorded loss, the Nyx itself. Hansen Pollard of Deepwater Hooligans landed the final blow that ended the hull.

A Costly Hull

Supercarriers are among the most expensive assets a capsuleer can field, and the destruction of even one is a material setback. The Nyx is a massive drone carrier, capable of projecting force across a battlefield. For Fraternity., losing such a hull is a costly reminder of the risks of operating supercapitals in nullsec. The hull was the only loss recorded, making its destruction all the more notable.

The Attackers

Deepwater Hooligans pilots were responsible for the kill, with Hansen Pollard credited as the final blow. The organization's involvement in bringing down a supercarrier in Vale of the Silent is a notable event, demonstrating that no capital ship is safe from determined attackers.

A Lone Supercarrier Loss

While the destruction drew a large number of participants, only one hull was lost. The Nyx is a rare sight on the battlefield, and the loss of a supercarrier is a costly setback for any pilot or group. The destruction in DAYP-G serves as a stark reminder of the risks of flying such valuable assets in nullsec.
