DDS begin weapon integration with LLAD, 2110 service introduction?

The DDS have begun weapon integration with it's MQ-14 Long Loiter Attack Drone (LLAD) which will be a key part of the DDSAF in years to come. Weapon integration is a month or so ahead of schedule and there is speculation the DDS will try and get LLAD into service before the end of this year and not "by Summer 2111" as previously stated.

LLAD is just one of a number of air and land weapon programmes that are being accelerated as the DDS think a land or air conflict with either the ABBOs or Bolitic will happen sooner rather than later. NDAA and the K-18D are both due to enter service in the next couple of months and the next version of the F-10, the SEP, will also be in service by the Fall.
