The DDS have decided to build 1 more Indy 35B on top of the existing order however this 11th ship will be partly owned by DDS Research and will be used to help develop advanced new technologies for future DDS warships and upgrades. The ship will also be fully combat capable and will be available for use by the general fleet when not being used for trials.
The ship will be a singleton class of its own called the Infinity 35X and will carry the name H131X Infinity. Its likely to be built as part of Ship Building Plan 2113/4 so could enter service later this year. DDS Research have revealed that it will be fitted with a new distributed power system where multiple smaller reactors are used instead of one centralised battery (this incidentally was originally intended for the Panther 35A when it was first designed but was dropped for cost reasons, recent advances in micro-generation have now made such a scheme affordable).
