      Lettering and colour seems too specific for a demo.
      For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.

          Hopefully the dept are starting to follow other EU countries where not all new kit goes through tender process and do inter gov purchases or direct with manf where there is an urgent Security need

            Seems to be the case, this tender went out

                    • Great to see it in public finally. The shot looking forward gives a good impression of how large they will be.
                      Great progress, so long after this thread begun.

                            Most definitely. One of the upshots is, now that the mould is built, it would be a much simpler operation to build more of this design, should the need arise. The only issue being the builder has a busy order book.

                            • They are building the 4 hopefully 2 will be delivered next year, the mould is now built and the lessons learned on this one will speed up the process.
