Operation Rising Star

Three DDS ships have joined a Raegris exercise known as Rising Star. The short exercise which will only last a couple of weeks will develop interoperability between the DDS and Raegris fleets and train the Raegris against an equal foe. The 2 DDS combat ships taking part are to be the "enemy" in a number of training exercises. The ships in the DDS part of the deployment are :

D151 Velocity (flag)
F110 Miocene
A150 Refinery

The exercises will take place in Remedian space near Loeuss (and it is expected though not confirmed yet that Dino forces based on Loeuss will also take part). After Rising Star ends the 3 DDS ships will take over the DDS part of the Remedian Border Protection Force which is now being steadily reduced, the minesweeping squadron recently returning to Solaris.
