The HCS Naval Air Service (HCSNAS) on Cloneworld has placed a number of orders for extra aircraft. 5 more F-45As have been ordered on top of the 20 already on order which will act as ground-based support for the F-40N fleet and will give the HCSNAS experience with the type (120 F-45Ks are on order for later in the decade).
A further 6 TR-72M maritime reconnaissance aircraft have been ordered, these will have enhanced communications systems for communicating with UUVs like the Long Watch. Finally the HCSNAS has ordered it's first new helicopters in 12 SH-26WNGM. Up until now it's SH-26s have been ex-HCSAF (and before that many came from the original navy). The WNGM's differences have yet to be revealed.
