Any progress on the PTV rework and its backlog of paints, including the Best in Show one that was initially shown at least two years ago?

TL;DRThe PTV rework is still planned though it keeps getting bumped from the schedule; it would bring the current PTV up to modern standards with component space and weapon racks, and keep the promised paints.

This is another great little bit of a ship task that we keep putting in the schedule, and then it gets removed because something runs long or something needs to come forward. Yes, still planned. I think we did show a concept of it.

I know we did concepts for it. I don't know if we've shown it.

I'm sure we've shown it somewhere. We did the STV and we showed the other one that we never made, the UTV.

John CreweVehicle Director

We showed the whole family so you could see the lines. That is how it will end up. So it's basically the current PTV brought up to modern grid standards, space for components, and I think a pair of weapon racks on the back of it, so you could put your personal weapons on. And it will have backwards compatibility with all the paints and the Best in Show one we promised.

And as we normally do with new ships, there'll be new paints for it as well.
