The NS amphibious warfare fleet could be cut back following a review by an MBO-NS team looking into NS power projection. NS built up a fleet to facilitate the landing of a large raiding force or bridgehead though has never used these assets in anger. Viceroy Caratore says he does not think NS needs such a capability.
The fleet of Clone built Pangaea 62A landing ships is said to be in poor condition and will not make it's expected end of service date of 2140 without major rebuilding (2130 will be pushing it). NS might phase them out early.
