The Marconi EW fleet is to receive an update over the next few weeks. Marconi 2110 Update A was originally going to be a more extensive upgrade and greatly improve the docking bays and include a modular casualty receiving station and improved accommodation to support special forces. However as the fleet is to be heavily worked over the next few months the decision has been made to concentrate only on the EW and computer systems as this will only take the ships out of service for a week each and not the 3-4 weeks as a more major upgrade will take.
The update thus includes a new version of the main sensor array, improved IR sensors, an upgraded signal processing computer and an upgraded communications multiplex. Internal security systems will also be upgraded and the Marconis will be fitted with multiple Canister TPM as per the existing SUP Combat Upgrade 2110.
