Dinos
Work has begun on the 5th Dinomark RS. This is likely to be the last RS to be built, though of course the Dinos have said this before. There were rumours the SS might also have one for their flagship but the SS have now decided to stick with the PT for SS-1. The 5th RS should be completed in about a year.
Once PT/2 production ceases early next year the Dinos say they will begin upgrading earlier PTs to PT/2 standard. They are also working on a PT/4 which could debut in a few years.
HCS
As well as the Shark upgrade programme previously mentioned the HCS are busy with the Cosmos K and Molentic Tuul M upgrade programmes with the Soulaki K also in the pipeline.
The Intruder landing ship platform may be used for a new EW/Elint ship. The Intruder-E would have plug-in electronic modules instead of landing craft though would also have some provision for small craft which indicates it may be also used for the special forces role like as is planned for the DDS Marconi EW ships. No firm order has yet to be placed for Intruder-E.
Raegris
Following a ceremony at the Raegris Fleet HQ the last 3 RF-1 Mel'Ukka frigates were withdrawn from service. The RF-1 were based on the Tarbot Yeoman II and are now obsolete and pretty worn out. At least 2 will be preserved.
New Arit
The Aritans have received their latest batch of MQ-5AA Ferret-E UCVs taking their force up to 40.
