Final Cuba class withdrawn

The final example of the Cuba class transport has been withdrawn from service bringing to an end the career of the DDS' first generation large transport. The ageing ships have proved troublesome over the last couple of years and are obsolete especially compared to the Provider class. The ships have been sold to a commercial spaceline.

The last ship 7104 Grenada was withdrawn when it returned to Solaris after a transport run from Rathun's World following a short ceremony. The other two surviving ships were withdrawn earlier this year.
