CNS Cloneworld begins to work-up to service

The first new aircraft carrier of the HCSN CNS Cloneworld has begun to work-up to it's planned entry into service "in the Summer". A date of July has been mentioned on some HCS blogs but not confirmed by the HCSN. Cloneworld will depart port early next month to begin it's work-up. It will deploy with 4 F-40Ns and 3 SH-26s and conduct a series of aircraft operation tests.

Following these tests Cloneworld will return to port and be fitted with the final build of it's EW and communications system which will hopefully iron out the worst of the bugs found so far.

The first new submarine CNSS Seawolf (CNSS is replacing SS as the designator for HCS submarines) has completed phase 1 of it's sea trials. Phase 2 will begin in the early Spring. The HCSN are hoping that by the end of 2110 both CNS Cloneworld and CNSS Seawolf will be in service.
