Provider 71A transport A102 Skytrain has been fitted with a boosted version of the Electron worm drive. The ship has carried out a number of unmanned tests and has now begun a series of manned proving flights. Next year the DDS will begin worming a small number of Providers and Extender 73A oilers to form specialist strategic sub-classes.
Skytrain has been limited to 4000ec because of the longer time between charges of the worm drive though this is a substantial increase in speed over the usual cruise speed of less than 600c!
