The Red Sparrow deployment has ended followed a simulated attack on a landed New DDS Army brigade by special forces. DDS Prowler and Dino SS-D worked together on the "attack" which was to train both the special forces and the defenders in repelling such an attack. It is thought the DDS made use of the new MQ-16C Attack Osprey drone in the exercise. The Dinos also provided some K-18Ds for the DDS to train against, DDS K-18Ds not yet being operational.
The short exercise (the total deployment has only run for a week) is seen as a last opportunity for the New DDS Army to train in a realistic scenario before the real shooting starts. Talking to the media afterwards The Orchid (who commanded the deployment) said that so far the DDS has not suffered greatly from the war but there may be more trying times to come.
