HCS looking into next upgrade for Molentic Tuuls

Now the Molentic Tuul M programme has been completed and the HCS Space Navy has a fleet of 1 type of Molentic Tuul instead of 3 the Clones are looking into the next upgrade for the type. Truth be told most of the MTM involved unifying the fleet though older MTAs got a useful upgrade. MTVs and MTGs only saw a modest improvement.

Planned for the middle part of this decade is a new upgrade currently known as MT15 though it will likely have a different name in practice. A new engine is currently being developed that could push top speed to 700c (the hull is already ready for this speed). The Clone version of the TPM (though more like the quad-phase missile) will also likely be fitted as it is due to enter service around 2114. CSM-S might also be an option to allow the MT15s to supplement the Kelsan KS bomber fleet.

It is likely that the forthcoming Sprite UCV (the HCS equivalent to the DDS/Dino Ferret) will figure highly in the upgrade too.
