Part 3/8:
In the contemporary military environment, boarding actions are exceedingly rare and typically take place under unusual circumstances. The attempts often mirror those of World War II, where soldiers boarded evacuated ships rather than engaging in direct combat. In an interstellar context, where enemy ships are equipped to defend themselves, the chances of successfully boarding an enemy craft are slim. Effective boarding actions would, therefore, only occur during scenarios like police missions or anti-piracy where vessels are rendered defenseless.
