The Aritans have admitted they have begun formal talks about joining the DTA, the DDS have not yet commented but are expected to take steps to ensure sensitive technology does not remain in Aritan hands if they leave the DDS (though much of it was destroyed by the ABBOs).
The 4 remaining Dinomark NGs have been transferred to the Aritan fleet as a "goodwill measure" by the Dinos. They will be sent to New Arit over the next week or so and then receive localisation ahead of an expected entry into service next month.
