DDS in talks with Dinos for major amphibious exericise

The DDS are planning for a major amphibious exercise later in the year. The timing depends on two things, the completion of the 2 latest Intruder LPDs (the DDS want to use all 4 on the exercise) and the status of the Dino-ABBO conflict. As the DDS Army is still not in any shape to be meaningfully used the Dinos have been asked to provide the ground troops to be deployed in the exercise. However the Dinos have said it depends on the status of the ABBOs conflict.

The as-yet-unnamed exercise will be a major undertaking with Prowler special forces and Dinomark littoral ships also being involved (both DDS and Dino examples). This is separate from the strike bomber exercise also planned for the Summer.
