General
The ETAK device is a component on Admiral Bosch's command ship, the NTF Iceni. It is unknown what is abbreviated as 'ETAK', first, it was supposed to be a weapon of mass destruction.
As the effect of a special operation, where the Iceni was scanned and information was gathered about it, the GTVA deduced that the ETAK is in reality, not a weapon of immense power, but rather a device which emits signatures. No-one had an idea about the real purpose of the ETAK, but it was made sure they were not worrying about a weapon.
The actual goal was only made clear when a patrolling Vasudan squadron discovered the Iceni in the nebula, sending signatures to a nearby Shivan cruiser.
Bosch had used the ETAK device to communicate with the Cosmic destroyers and form an alliance between the Terrans and the Shivans. Shortly before the Iceni's discovery in the nebula, the Shivans had taken the NTF's Supreme Admiral and fled. Shortly thereafter, the transport carrying Admiral Bosch was discovered, but the GTVA task force failed to intercept and abduct the Admiral.
When the 3rd Vasudan fleet rescued the survivors of the NTF Iceni, the ship self-destructed alongside with the ETAK device. Unless there is a second Iceni-class corvette, we will never know more about the ETAK project.
