Dinos developing MRM equivalent

The Dinos have not yet fully committed to joining the HCS and DDS in developing an interstellar strategic missile (though are interested) but they are developing a space launched missile with a range of up to 5 light years (the same as the DDS MRM). The Dinos have called their missile the GAM (Galactic Attack Missile) and will be deployable by Dinomark RS/PT/XTs and also Sirikwanese Pentekonters and Helwins. Sirikwan is a key partner in the project and has contributed 40% of project costs though the GAM will be available to all DTA members the Dinos said.

The Dinos said GAM is hoped to enter service by 2115 and its interstellar stage will be also the basis of a strategic missile for some time in the early 2120s, unlike MRM which shares little with LRM, if the Dinos decide to go ahead with this project.
