Following evaluation of E101 Marconi the rest of the Marconi 81A class will be receiving a similiar special forces and general combat capability update. The changes Marconi received included an enlarged docking bay able to accept both SROPS and Fulcrums/Corils, extra troop accommodation, basic casualty handling, 360 CIWS and TPM-2 capable missile launchers. E101 Marconi itself has just received further updates to it's sensor system and communications systems.
The updates will be carried out over the next few months during normal refits. E103 Braun has just begun it's update. A sigint/elint update for the fleet is also planned for next year. A decision to start building the planned 6th Marconi has yet to be committed to however and may now slip into 2112.
