The K45K Falcon fighter has embarked on its first operational cruise aboard the Clone Navy flagship CNSS Cloneworld. 4 of the planes, joined by 8 K85NTKs, have been taken on a training exercise. The K45Ks will maintain CAP (or practice anyway) and also perform some reconnaissance sorties.
The Clone Navy hopes to embark a full complement of 8 Falcons on an operational cruise later in the year. The CN is keen to launch another offensive against the pirates on Cloneworld, this time augmented by new and improved weapons like the Falcon and new ships like the Albatross intelligence gathering ship (the first of which has also joined the above exercise incidentally).
