SROPS upgrade complete, new build commences

The upgrade of the SROPS combat shuttle fleet to 76B standard has been completed. The upgrade includes further improvements to the docking system, Canister TPM support and improvements to the controls and communications system. It also has support for the forthcoming SROPS Hyperspace Array which is a "strap-on" unmanned vehicle which can give the SROPS a superluminal capability.

The DDS have placed an order for 25 new build SROPS 76Bs also for delivery from next year. New Arit have also ordered 5 for their own fleet.
