NS to conduct review into amphibious fleet

NS has begun a review into it's amphibious warfare fleet. This was greatly built up in the 2110s. The fleet is designed to deploy and support a large raiding force and includes landing ships and support carriers. However, despite the impressive capabilities there is a feeling amongst some in the NS hierarchy that the fleet is unneeded and is a waste of money.

NS already want to withdraw it's three Clone built Triumph 66B support carriers. Getting spares to keep the ships in service is proving difficult. This is also an issue with the Pangaea 62A assault ships though these have a lot more NS sourced equipment.
