The
HCS Space Navy have placed an order for 10
Horizon HZ unmanned transports, building of the first began at the start of the year and testing will begin by the end of the Summer. Many of the Horizon's systems have already been developed on other ships. The Horizon is a medium transport said to be similar in size and capacity to the
Dinomark MX and will be used for day-to-day inter-system transports as well as "special duties" including the transport of hazardous materials.
Although a UCV the Horizon does include basic habitable areas meaning there is an option for it to be crewed. It is thought that the Horizon will have automated security systems including robot guards.
- The DDS have dropped their alert status to ORANGE, another PRB attack is not thought likely but the unexpectedness of the last attack means that the DDS are being careful.
