A covert Belter assault that cripples Callisto's defenses long enough to steal Martian stealth technology.
The Callisto shipyard raid is executed against the adjoining civilian and Martian military yards on Callisto. A runaway loader blinds the meteor defenses, a disguised freighter contributes targeting lasers, and tungsten projectiles destroy guards and ships in orbit. Under that cover, Filip Inaros's team enters the military depot.
The raiders seize canisters of high-density resonance coating, an energy-absorbing material that helps Martian warships evade detection. The operation also exacts a lethal price: Filip abandons the team caught at the armory so that the escape scaffold can launch on schedule.
The raid turns Callisto's crater-bound shipyards into a haze of dust, venting gas, emergency strobes, torn structures, and fragments drifting in thin atmosphere.
The raid establishes an organized extremist Belter operation capable of stealing strategically important Martian technology.
