The Sirikwanese have loaned 2 of their Bolitic built Helwin patrol ships to the DDS for use in realistic training scenarios. Although the Sirikwanese Helwins are quite old their general characteristics and weapons are similar to what the DDS could face in a battle with the Bolitic.
In return the DDS have loaned Sirikwan a Pentekonter until next year when the first of the Pentekonter-Es they have on order is delivered. X902 Xerxes will operate with a DDS crew with Sirikwanese assistants and will be used to help train personnel in the new type.
