Dinomark AM begins trials

Like the Clones and the DDS the Dinos have developed a dedicated attack cruiser (or bomber in DDS parlance). The Dinomark AM is a radical departure for the Dinos who tend to prefer refining the same platform for generations rather than start with a clean sheet of paper but that is exactly what they have done.

Unlike the Warrior 16A and Kelsan KS the Dinomark AM is designed for atmospheric use and has a high performance thanks to a tri-mode powerplant comprising "traditional" nuclear rockets, fanjets and a worm drive. Trials of the first AM have now begun and it is expected to be ready to enter service by the end of the year though will unlikely to be ready operationally until late 2116.
