NS accept ten Sting fighters from MBO

As well as the Nectar light destroyers currently being modified for NS use, ten smaller Sting fighters have also been transferred to NS service. These are smaller versions of the Nectar but without any heavy armament, they are used by the MBO for scouting and liaison duties. They may perform a similar role in the NS Space Fleet though this has yet to be defined.

In NS service they will be known as the Sting 58A. They will soon begin localisation upgrades, it is likely they will be up-armed with TPM-VLS.
