Heading for Narn HW Putty are 6 Hyak b17-bomber (each 484kt).

The Narn HW has about 67% defenses.

Weight of the Hyak b17 indicates usage of fuel mizer and m70-bombs. If that's correct, bombing would take quite a while or there are more bombers we aren't seeing at the moment.

I am more worried about the Vorlon 6 b17-bombers (546 kt) 47-ly SW of Pickett, accompied by a missile/torp-BB (869k kt). They might support the Hyak but they could also go vs the Pak'ma'ra.
  • Vorlon b17 (546 kt): Alpha 8 engine, 8 m80, fuel pod
  • Hyak b17 (484 kt): mizer, 8 m70, fuel pod
btw: I am mightily impressed that the Vorlons have weap 12 and con 13, altogether they needed to spend more than 95k RP for those 5 tech levels.

Since I found this so impressing I calculated a bit:
With 20% pop growth the Vorlons started phase II with about 820k pop on their HW. Putting 570k pop into LFs and keeping the HW on 250k pop to maximize pop growth for the next 10 years, boosts them to a total of 2.27mio pop. Enough to fill up the HW again to 1mio and have plenty of pop left for colonising and further growth in LFs.

It's realistic to assume at least 15/9/25 factory settings which means from on 2442/3 the Vorlon HW was able to produce 4750 res per year. Enough to get weap 12 and con 13 for phase III.
