6.4.09

Velocity 2109 Update A

The Velocity 37A & B fleets will receive their first update of the year over the next few weeks. Velocity 2109 Update A includes installation of an Info-Warfare Centre (IWC) and about 69 software and minor amends. The ships will have support to datalink with MRM and the latest communication protocols.

The scope of the update is quite limited and interestingly does not include TPM-2 support (though they can give course guidance information to a missile launched by another ship). This apparently will have to wait until a planned unification upgrade planned for next year which will unify the A & B into a new standard close to the new Solaris III 37C standard (which does have TPM-2 support from the off).
