Details of the Vontapi in the public domain are scant but they are said to be ethnic 7SS, perhaps descended from the Xenon. Their territory is centred on the planet Vontapi but also includes 6 other star systems, 3 with populated colonies. Their defence force is said to be made up from ageing ex-Tarbotian and home built warships.
In a 7 billion zark order (the largest for some time) the Vontapi have ordered 3 Isometric 160s, 6 Pentekonter 216s, and 2 Extender 120 oilers. The ships will be equipped with QPM and the order includes 300 rounds of the missile. Deliveries are due to begin next year. Other military equipment including personal weapons, communication devices and sensor satellites are also included in the order.
- The DDS have reduced their alert status to CYAN.
