K19NGE/NGN New Borehole begins flight testing

The K19BEC Borehole is a venerable part of the Clone combat aviation arm, a Clone Wars type which has continued into service in the anti-shipping role for the Clone Naval Air Service. A few years ago the Clone Air Force was looking for a new long-range interdictor, also with an LEO attack role and ended up choosing a new generation K19 Borehole.

The K19NGE Borehole (sometimes referred to as New Borehole) is a completely redesigned aircraft though looks very similar to the BEC. It will enter service in 2123. A naval version of the NGE, the NGN will also enter service in 2123 replacing the BEC by the middle of the decade.
