Second Windscorpion monitor cancelled, existing ship to be renamed

The second Windscorpion 18A monitor has been cancelled. This was not a surprise as NS has been holding on ordering any long-lead items for the second ship (apart from items which can be used as spares for 18-101 Windscorpion).

The existing ship will be renamed by NS, it being considered having the ship named after a traitor (the head of the so-called Real DDS) is ill-advised. The new name has yet to be decided.
