Two more ships have joined the fleet. Provider transport A115 Lodestar and Extender oiler A147 Trident have completed their trails and been accepted into service. Battle damaged Provider A106 Dakota has also returned to service following extensive repairs. All three ships have been fitted with upgraded self-defence weapons and improved engine management computers.
Two ships have left the fleet however. Two Coril shuttles A551 Susan and A555 Monique have been sold to the Aritans, though it is thought the "sale" was part of the "thanks" the DDS has given the Aritans for it's recent assistance and the price was nominal.
Isometric F119 Precambrian has been fitted with Pave Yellow mine sweeping control equipment and will be now ready to lead mine sweeping patrols.
A software update to the attack system SAS has been rolled out to the Pulsar fleet to improve the accuracy of missile strikes and amend some issues.
Developmental frigate X111 Isometric has arrived at Solaris for extensive rebuilding. The ship will be fitted with a Gluon-2 engine. This will power the Dreadnought class destroyer and be retrofitted to Panther at a later stage. Panther to start with will use Gluon-1 which is a modification of Neptune technology used in the Quasar. Isometric is expected to be out of service until next year.
