The DDS has absorbed the UNP's SpecForce, an elite unit specialising in space combat who have in the past been used in counter-terrorism and protection of UNP orbital stations. The 120 man unit (with support staff) has now joined the DDS and their expertise will form 3 space-operation Prowler units.
The DDS are also in talks with the UNP about transferring the UNP's Facilities Command to the DDS. These troops (some 790 in number) are well-trained personnel who protect UNP facilities. The DDS may take over this protection and Facilities Command will also be transferred into the DDS to join DDS Security.
