DDS to get Pelican 47Ws in a few weeks

The Dinos are to deliver all 3 Pelican 47W special forces transports to the DDS in a few weeks. All 3 are ex-Dino XT/118ws (though they are only a year or two old). It was feared the Dinos may delay delivering the Pelicans because of their war situation but it is thought the Dinos have prioritised delivery in return for future software updated for the TPM-1 missiles they have recently received from the DDS.

The Pelican 47W class are capable of operating underwater as well as in the air or space and will be operated by the Maritime Support Regiment of the DDS Army and the Marine Prowler special forces unit. The ships will require localisation and thus are not expected to be available for service for a few months afterwards.
