Aritans successfully demonstrate Kalahati Tuul UCV mothership

The Aritans have demonstrated the use of one of their reconditioned Kalahati Tuuls as a UCV mothership. The Aritans have modified the ship's docking bay and also added an extra UCV hangar underneath the ship which has a pressurised section for maintenance on UCVs. The Aritans say the Kalahati Tuul can carry up to 10 Ferret's in it's hangar plus extra drones carried externally. A UCV control centre has also been built in a former store room near to the hangar.

Three of the ten KTs have been modified so far and the Aritans plan to modify all of them by next year though not all ships will be used for UCVs.
