NS prepare Quasar and Isometric for final decade

The Quasar 15A and Isometric 41A fleets are among the oldest in the fleet having begun service in 2101 and 2102 respectively. Both are due to be withdrawn after thirty years service in the early 2130s. NS outlined plans for both types final decade in service.

The Quasar bombers will continue their role though are expected to move into a more command role. They are due to receive an upgrade to enable them to give course corrections to LRMs in flight.

The Isometrics will become dedicated patrol ships which will lighten their work load and should ensure they will reach their intended withdrawal date.
