Olympus Balista impresses in trials

The first Olympus Balista 23M missile/UCV carrier, S251 Anubis, has impressed in its first deployment joining the DDS fleet at Aldebra. The Balista is proving to be a very flexible ship, its large docking bay proving highly useful in a search of one of Aldebra's moons for left over Argon equipment.

Anubis also took part in a small exercise using live rounds and it pounded a target "fleet" with no less than 30 TPM-2s fired in just a few seconds. Anubis has now returned to Solaris for some modifications to fix a few teething problems.
