Although named and dedicated on the 1st the Panther still had a few teething problems that needed solving before it could enter service and that has now been achieved. D101 Panther has been attached to the central fleet though will spend the next few months touring the DDS to give crews and DDS personnel the opportunity to become familiar with the new type. The ship will perform some patrols though to coincide with it's tour.
The first mission will begin tomorrow as the ship takes the Proxima-Solaris patrol. A lowly duty as it is usually performed by a Pentekonter! The mission will only last a day however and then Panther will spend a week at Solaris for training and familiarisation purposes before heading to Remedia Prime for the planned military exercise in March.
