UNDF Air Department has announced an upgrade of it's mainstay fleet of F-10S Shark 2100 fighters which will be carried out over the next year. All F-10S, F-10SIM and F-10SNG will receive a new communication system with support for fractal encryption. Older F-10S will also receive the same ECM suite as the final SNG batch.
The long-term replacement F-20 was also mentioned by the Air Department. An introduction date of the "early 2130s" is still being kept to though as yet no design has been unveiled. However, it is expected the F-20 will be a development of the F-10SNG not a clean sheet design as originally thought.
