In some good news for the depleted NS Space Fleet, the penultimate Corkscrew 51A destroyer 51-119 Cactus has entered service. The final Corkscrew has also been completed though has yet to enter testing and pre-service trial, though this will be completed over the next couple of months. Work has already begun on the first of the follow-on Repulse 51B class.
The Corkscrew lead ship 51-101 Corkscrew was captured and badly damaged by the MBO. It has been returned to the NS Space Fleet by the MBO and work has begun on repairs. An NS Engineering source said the ship will be back by the end of the year.
