DDS investigating "Mini Missileer" for export

The DDS have begun market research and design studies into a missile carrier and command vessel based on the Olympus platform. The ship would perform a similar role to the Missileer except for ship hosting and strategic attack. The "Mini Missileer" as the project is currently called (it will not get a proper name until it becomes a firm project) would use missile launchers based on TPM-VLS though would have a non-TPM option for non-Tier 1/2 customers.

The DDS Exports Agency is also hoping to soon give more details of its mid-life refresh of the highly successful Pentekonter-E.
