NS released OSINT on Tarbotian, Mutre Bee new warships
New Sparta has released some OSINT on new Tarbotian and Mutre Bee warships which have been recently been detected by NS and allied ships. The Tarbotians are said to be continuing to refine their existing types. A new version of the Kenora cruiser was detected with a higher power signature and what appears to be a larger dorsal weapons bay. This has been called Kenora Type M by NS (the Tarbotian designation is unknown).
A new version of the backbone Samara has also been detected, also with a higher power signature and higher performance. Provisionally this has been called the Samara VI by NS. Another ship was also detected, however details are sketchy. It is thought to be a light cruiser or heavy destroyer. NS has termed it Sloop 2122.
The Mutre Bee ship detected by the Dinos was similar to the small nimble destroyers encountered by NS before but with what appears to have a heavier armament.

Mutre Bee ship spotted near Repican space
A Dino reconnaissance patrol ship is reported to have spotted a Mutre Bee destroyer near the edge of Repican space. This is a highly unusual location to see a Mutre Bee ship. The Dino patrol ship did not follow it and soon lost contact with it. The Dino SS advised NSIS of the spotting yesterday.
An NSIS source said the ship's location was mysterious. It is suspected the Mutre Bee may still have bases in the Local Group though not likely to be that far away from UNP space. The source concluded that the Mutre Bee ship may have just been on a reconnaissance of it's own.

CDF forms Zone Legion
The Clone Defence Forces has formally added the Zone Legion to the Clone Army. This unit, which consists of an armoured brigade, five infantry brigades, three transport brigades and an artillery regiment, is drawn entirely of Zone personnel drawn entirely from Zone refugees who were resettled on Colom after the devastation of Zoneland by the DDS.
The Zone Legion has become part of the Taragargi Division of the CDF. Much of the legion will be used to protect Colom though some brigades have been allocated to Teriatri 7 and Geulis.
