The final 2 Fulcrum 085A special forces transports, modified versions of Utrek High Speed Transports, have begun the process of being switched off. They are due to be withdrawn in a few months but will remain available if needed though on a reduced readiness status.
They were bought from the Clones in 2107 and have performed admirably if at sometimes rather precariously due to their age and "exotic" nature of the technologies used to achieve speeds of 900c. They will be not be directly replaced immediately but the NS have announced that will replace them, the Coril 086M. This is a specialised version of the Coril-DDS shuttle which will have worm drive and a specialist (and secret) equipment fit. Five 086Ms will be built from next year.
