MBO looking to upgrade Nectar with NS technology

MBO have begun an upgrade programme for it's mainstay Nectar destroyer, which is also in NS service. MBO plan to greatly augment the Nectar with NS technologies including worm drive, Zip cannons and info weapon support. The Nectar missile launcher has already been adapted to fire TPMs though it is not known if the MBO have set up their own TPM factories yet.

The upgraded Nectars, which would be new build, will be known as the Nectar X. This is a separate upgrade programme to the Nectar E though includes some of the same NS updates. It is thought the Nectar E is for the NS' own Nectar fleet only.
