DDS order more Raegris 360 CIWS

Following successful trials on a handful of DDS warships including SS Carboniferous the DDS have decided to make the Raegris 360 Degree CIWS the new standard. All new build warships and ships receiving major updates (such as the Quasar ILU programme) will receive the CIWS. This includes the final few Terran Sea frigates which are now known as Terran Sea C2.

Missileer will receive the CIWS by the end of the year and the DDS are currently working on calibrating the CIWS for the Missileer hull form, this will also make it available for other SUP based ships including the Provider and Marconi classes at a later stage.

The Rome corvette has just been calibrated and will be included from K110 Nero (it is too late to include it on the 2 currently being finished). The CIWS is included in a number of improvements to the type known as Rome B. A number of systems have been improved including tactical and engine management, top speed will also be increased to 650c. Existing Romes will receive an update to this standard (and the CIWS) at a later stage.
