Gibson victim of data error

Dino Liaison Officer Gibson has unfortunately been the victim of a data error where his private and sensitive medical details were accidentally e-mailed to everyone in the DDS. Thus everyone could read the lurid details of the anal reconstruction surgery Gibson has received recently after what the doctor describes as "Violent, brutal and sustained anal sex." Images of his small genitalia were also included with the e-mail. Everyone in the DDS was also able to read of his erectile dysfunction problems.

A DDS spokesman said how these details were broadcast is a mystery, it must have been a pure one in a million fluke he went on to say and it was purely bad luck that Gibson's records were sent out of everyone.

DDS and Dinos to discuss defence partnership

With both Sirikwan and Voth benefiting from defence equipment and assistance from the DDS and Dinos the two Central Powers are to discuss co-ordinating their efforts in the region to avoid duplication and damaging competition. "Obviously we both want influence, strategic advantages and, lets face it, military sales in the area. Now we could compete against each other aggressively but that might mean we end up alienating our partners." a DDS spokeswoman said.

There are signs the HCS are eying the region too, it is understood they have offered the Voth some refurbished ex-HCSAF aircraft and ex-HCS AFVs in return for establishing a liaison base on the planet. However both the Dinos and DDS would rather the Clones stayed out of it. 

So instead the DDS and Dinos seem to be planning setting up a duopoly to keep out the Clones and anyone else. To sweeten the deals both Sirikwan and Voth can probably expect more free or cut-price equipment though once they are locked into the DDS and Dino military systems they will find it too expensive and difficult to go elsewhere.

Tarbotians encountered by DDS

A DDS ship commanded by Knobhead has detected a Tarbotian array of listening stations on a planet in the Rim Worlds and engaged in battle with a Tarbotian destroyer. F142 Arabian Sea arrived at the planet Perigrin 803 following a tip-off that the Tarbotians had established a listening station on the planet to snoop on DDS communications and operations based around Rathun's World.

A series of automated stations were found when a Tarbotian Samara class destroyer turned up to service them. The DDS managed to force the Tarbotians to surrender and reveal the location of the stations which were then destroyed. The Aritans have been asked to keep an eye on any other Tarbotian activity in ther area.

DDS set up satellite network over Voth

A basic communications, weather and early warning satellite network has been set up by a DDS team on Voth. Further satellites will be set up later in the year. All satellites are of a standard DDS type and have come from DDS stores. Voth now has a stable encrypted military communications network and early warning able to detect uncloaked ships from 2 light years away. Further enhancement to the network will increase this to 5 light years.

A permanent lasernet node connecting Voth to the Dino Intergalactic Network (and thus into the DDS network) will also be set up by the end of the year. A lasernet link to Sirikwan is now working and messages can be relayed via there. The full lasernet link however will allow Voth to enter the DDS internet system. Full access may wait though until a direct lasernet link to the DDS network can be set up next year.

A Dino team is working with the DDS personnel to set up a GPS system to work with guided weapons operated by the K-16 attack aircraft, some refurbished examples will be provided to Voth next year. The teams are working to integrate DDS weapons into the GPS system to allow weapons carried by F-10A fighters to also use the data, some of these fighters will also be transferred at a later date.

DDS begin testing air launched TPM-2

With the TPM-2 now entering service after a long development the next version of the missile, an air-launched missile to attack targets in LEO. The missile, currently known as TPM-A-2X will replace the TPM-A in service with DDS Air Force regiments at GHQ and on Solaris. These aircraft form the final layer of defence.

TPM-A-2X is smaller than TPM-A and 2 will be carried by F-10S Shark 2100 fighters which can at the moment only carry 1 TPM-A. TPM-A-2X also has a better rocket booster and enhanced datalinking for course correction and an improved terminal guidance mode.
