Helnikan Island linked up to DDS network

The first step in Helnikan Island becoming the DDS' new GHQ has been achieved with the island being linked to the DDS' network via a microwave link to DDS Communications HQ. Two buried fibre-optic links will also be completed by the end of the year and a satellite link will also be established.

Work is progressing well on a 150m deep excavation at the site of the new GHQ, work is also proceeding on a new port at Ren's Bay. Finishing touches are being made to the first runway at the air base on the island. This runway will be a temporary surfaced one though will enable a greater flow of personnel and materials to the island. Work on the permanent runways and air base infrastructure will begin soon.
