In November 3304, a cabal of junior Sirius Navy officers was involved in a conspiracy to coerce the [[Engineers|Engineer]] [[Ram Tah]] into accepting a proposed partnership with Sirius Corporation. The officers funded and organised a series of mercenary attacks on Phoenix Base, Ram Tah's personal workshop in [[Meene]], in an effort to scare Ram Tah into seeking Sirius's protection. Independent pilots helped the Meene Defence Force capture several mercenaries who revealed their ties to the Sirius Navy conspirators. CEO [[Li Yong-Rui]] insisted the officers acted without authorisation and would be tried for their crimes, but the scandal still forced him to withdraw his offer of partnership, which prevented Sirius Corporation from gaining access to the Engineer's [[Guardian]] technology projects.<ref name="Connection Corp">[https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/uid/5beeb74cb94ba6077e1202a4 GalNet: Connection to Sirius Corp Uncovered]</ref><ref name="Sirius Arrests">[https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/uid/5bf7d6cf38756f7d782f8924 GalNet: Sirius Arrests Rogue Officers]</ref><ref name="Security Ram Tah">[https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/uid/5c011cec4e67776fee0e252c GalNet: Aegis Offers Security to Ram Tah]</ref> | In November 3304, a cabal of junior Sirius Navy officers was involved in a conspiracy to coerce the [[Engineers|Engineer]] [[Ram Tah]] into accepting a proposed partnership with Sirius Corporation.

The Sirius Navy makes use of [[Gutamaya]] ship models that are branded in a unique, royal blue livery. A large portion of the fleet consists of [[Imperial Cutter]]s, which are used as patrol ships. These are supported by fighters and cruisers. The majority of the ships in the Sirius Navy are purchased directly from Gutamaya, but some are manufactured under license in Sirius's own shipyards.<ref name="TB0209">Tourist | The Sirius Navy makes use of [[Gutamaya]] ship models that are branded in a unique, royal blue livery.
