Clone Space Navy get funds for new ships

After a blank few months of no new construction (with several ships held up and crews laid off) the Clone Space Navy has been granted 190 million zarks to restart construction this year and will get 410 million to continue it throughout 2115.

Despite a number of combat types being on order priority is likely to be given to new transports. Several Nerval TYBs dating from the Clone Wars remain in service and are struggling along despite being fatigue life expired. The Clones also need to boost their Freighter TYA fleet up to 70 ships to cope with the amount of traffic generated by the sprawling Clone Star Empire. Money will also be used to set up the production line for the new build Molentic Tuul MTM2 which is expected to be built from 2116, though with anything Clone space related this is depending on funding which is sometimes in short supply.
