New Arit have said they are reconsidering their recent purchase of Clone built transport planes in the light of the defence cooperation deal between the Clones and Arit's mortal enemies Telvin 802. Although Sirikwan are also buying the planes New Arit pulling out could cause the deal to collapse because of the maintenance and joint-training agreements that had been put in place to cut costs.
The Dinos and Sirikwanese are both urging the Aritans to stay with the purchase. One insider thinks it is unlikely Arit will pull out but are taking advantage of the Telvin agreement to try and get a lower price.
