The Aritans have outlined plans to turn their sole Extender-E oiler into the flagship of their fleet. The ship will be outfitted with a full command and control suite as part of their fleet upgrade plan as facilitated by the Dino loan of 1 billion zarks. The Extender will be used at the centre of their operations providing C3 for Aritan operations.
The Extender will also be fitted with a full TPM-1 launcher and other upgraded particle weapons though this will be intended for self-defence. Docking and crew facilities will also be upgraded.
