THE CATCH
The Astrahus was caught in Vahunomi and broken in a matter of moments, with only four participants recorded in the engagement. What might have been a stubborn structure fight instead turned into a fast execution, as New Eden Tank Testing Services applied enough force to force the citadel down before any escape or recovery could meaningfully develop.
THE BREAK
The damage was concentrated and efficient. Innocent Scout’s Leshak landed the final blow after 3,869,415 damage, while Zappity’s Leshak added another 3,327,473. That kind of pressure suggests the target was isolated and unable to absorb the sustained fire long enough to hold the field. The Astrahus did not survive long enough for a broader defense to emerge.
THE LOSSES
The structure’s destruction accounted for 2.2 billion ISK in losses, with a further 1.3 billion ISK in fittings and assets dropped into the aftermath. Among the destroyed items were 5,000 Standup Cruise Missiles, 18 Standup Dragonfly II units, and a Standup M-Set Basic Large Ship Manufacturing Material Efficiency I. Nine more Standup Dragonfly II units, along with a Standup Ballistic Control System I, were left behind in the wreckage, underscoring how much was packed into the hull when it fell.
THE SIGNIFICANCE
For zettai zettai ryouiki, the loss of an Astrahus is more than a costly wreck: it is the removal of a foothold. For New Eden Tank Testing Services, the result is a clean and expensive reminder that even well-fitted structures can disappear quickly when they are left exposed. In Vahunomi, the fight was short, sharp, and unforgiving—and the Astrahus was gone before it had any real chance to answer back.
