Dinomark explodes at Central AFB
A Dinomark XT is understood to have exploded just after take off on a mission from Central AFB (the main Dino Army base) near Dino-Town. It is not known what mission the Dinomark was on or who was aboard though the SS have bought a right security cordon around the area which indicates there were VIPs aboard.
The cause of the explosion is unknown, Dinomark XTs are very proven and safe technology so the explosion being caused by a failure or accident is highly unlikely. The fusion reactor was not breached so no radiation was released however a decontamination zone has been set up for other toxins.

Civilian Partnership 2115
The latest edition of the DDS' humanitarian and disaster relief exercise is due to begin in early September. This year (and maybe topically) the exercise will involve civilian evacuation and relief during a war. The exercise will be based around the Remedian planet of Mila with Remedian ships acting as an "enemy" (though there will be no combat exercises but the Remedians will "harass").
The exercise will involve evacuation, resettlement in a temporary camp and relief delivery. Around 3000 volunteers from Remedian and Terran relief agencies will act as the displaced civilians. Remedian agencies will also take part (along with the UNP) to train in interoperability. The ships involved will be:
L151 Oceania (flagship)
L157 Central America
S223 Vesuvius
M108 Holocene
M130 Formiddable
K151 Fighting Falcon
K159 Goshawk
K161 Raptor
A113 Crate
A117 Hercules
A166 Ethanol
Remedian fleet:
H203 Remedia Prime II (flagship)
H204 Mila II
M204R Citix of Remedia

CAF want funding for more COIN regiments
The Clone Air Force is pressing for more funding to afford 6 more COIN regiments. They are arguing that current COIN resources are spread too thinly with the size of the empire as it is and the number of insurgencies (at least 8) currently ongoing.
If the CAF get their way then around 200 more aircraft will be needed. Some K85s can be reactivated from the reserve though the rest will need to be new build K85s though the hybrid powered K58 light strike aircraft currently in development may also have a role.
