Notes: Undergoing development at the National Defence Research Centre. Project is scheduled to be completed in March of 2022, but skeptics say this is a very optimistic estimate. Designed to work in conjunction with Naval Infantry expeditionary units for highly mobile fire-support.
Since it carries two Naval Infantry Companies, the senior (by time in service) First Lieutenant is breveted to Captain.
Ship CO is a Colonel of the People's Air Force, while the XO is a People's Navy Commander. The breveted Captain of the Naval Infantry serves as Second Officer and liason officer.
