History
Came out of dry dock at Area 53 ( a new ship buliding bunker complex in the rockie mountains) on July 4 2007 .Proceeded on routine shake down and space trials out in orbit around Jupiter. Recalled for installation of rapier lasers form area (51 AKA dreamland) on August 1 2007. Colonel Whitcomb commanded the ship out to Orion’s belt to lead an attack on a single Ori battle ship which had come through the supergate before it was descovered .It was discovered by a jaffa transport on it's way to chulak). The ship jumped in on the ori vessel from behind. The vanguards primary mega-railgun fired and the impact caused the Ori shields to flicker. Whitcomb ordered a full broad side of missiles as the ship passed adminships of the ori vessel. The impact of 1476 missiles ,72 of them nuclear tipped on an area of the size of a football pitch brought down the shields and the Vanguard fired its primary mega-railgun again causing massive damage to the Ori ship . the the defensive weapon opened fir and the ori ship vented atmosphere and fractured under the emense gravational stress .Colonel Whitcomb then proceeded to assist in the battle over Chulak
N.B. the 8 huge nukes were not supplied during the battle but were transferred from the odyssey which met the Vanguard coming back from repairs and refit at earth
