The Olympus Balista is part of the DDS export portfolio though as yet had no takers. The Balista version of the Olympus is a missile carrier, dubbed "Mini Missileer" by some observers. The DDS have decided to build it for themselves though their version will be a lot more powerful than the export spec and be equipped with a worm drive.
The Olympus Balista 23M will be equipped with multiple TPM launchers including VLS, MRMs and a Z7 cannon. It will also have a (reduced) UCAV complement. It will be ordered soon as part of the DDS Poliburo's "new direction" for the DDS fleet. Others details of any changes to the DDS fleet have not yet been announced, though some have noted that orders for long lead items for the Corkscrew 51A have been speeded up.
