Rome Fleet Standardisation Update (RFSU) begins

Rome Fleet Standardisation Update (RFSU) has begun, this will standardise the Rome fleet which consists of 2 batches, the earlier Rome A not being quite as advanced as the B. The earlier ships will gain TPM-2, 5036 combat suites (all Romes will receive the 5036-A2), Combat Ware 2.0 and an Info-Warfare Centre (IWC). Older ships will take 3 weeks each to update with the newer ships (which have less to change) about half that. All updates will be carried out as the ships receive their scheduled refits.

Because of this RFSU will not be completed until well into next year though it is expected all of the older Romes will be completed by the end of this year.
