NS Research is currently designing a new research ship which will help develop warship technologies for the next generations of NS warship. The Type 099X (as it is currently known) will be a bespoke design which will be as flexible as possible to allow for the fitting and replacement of systems under test.
Initial systems to be tested will be a fully holographic hull interior, twin worm drives and "just in time" TPM fabrication. However the ship will not be built until 2118 so details will likely change before then.
