Type 46A Rome class corvette K118 Constantine has joined the fleet and begun patrol duties immediately. Constantine is carrying some modifications to the layout of it's docking bay to better utilise the space, if the new design is a success then it will be retrofitted to the rest of the fleet during refits.

Another testbed was Type 41A Isometric frigate F106 Tertiary which earlier in the year was fitted with some equipment intended for the Isometric ILU, the equipment has been a success and will assist the ILU programme greatly. Another Isometric will be fitted with some new equipment for test purposes later in the year.
