The royal Netherlands army in early 1936 created the 1st special forces regiment while the royal Netherlands marines began their one expansions, the 1st special forces regiment is also the regiment slated to complete operations for the royal Netherlands space force when the operated under its command, the royal Netherlands marines can also be used by the royal Netherlands space force if needed.

Rear admiral Doorman commander of the royal Netherlands space force in the middle of 1936 issued an order that all attention for the coming years is to be focus on the Netherlands as he has received many request for diverting pressures resources on projects like sending one of eight shuttles to the moon ore a prope to mars.

The first prototype of the Fokker D-21 and Fokker G-1 successfully took to the skies , the production of both fighters also began in 1936 using a modernized production line to maximize the output , Fokker also has begun work on the next fighter dubbed the D-22 who is based on the yet to be build American P-51 mustang.

DAF completed the first M.35 armored car for the royal Netherlands army after only a year of research mostly done onboard the holodecks of RNSS Amsterdam where DAF designers managed to conduct many field test whit out having to build one first, after the designers where happy whit the final version of the M.35 armored car its production began which production lines is modernized.

In order to keep things secret and collect information the oversight commission who by now is also known as the shadow government managed to convince the prime minister in to creating the military intelligence service/militaire inlichtingen dienst , this agency will use information gathered true the royal Netherlands space force or other methods in order to protect the Kingdom and its colony’s.

1935

A year has passed sins the appearance of the USS Amsterdam in earth orbit and Commander Doorman being zapped onboard the starship.

In that year both commander Doorman and Vice-admiral Janssen spend a lot of time learning much about the future by reading PADDs and visiting the many holodecks , during one of those visit commander Doorman discovered that he would die in a future naval battle against the Japanese which kind of shock him but also made him more resolved to use the USS Amsterdam for the good of the kingdom.

Vice-admiral Janssen decided early in on that it would be best that no other nation would be involved as the information and technology discovered onboard the ship would result in

So he gathered some people he could trust from the royal Netherlands navy, royal Netherlands army, government officials and people from major companies in the Netherlands like Fokker, Philips, DAF, Schell, Wilton-Fijenoord and the Rotterdamsche Droogdok Maatschappij.

After many discussions the agreed to form an oversight commission who would guide the Netherlands in the right direction while also forming a new branch of the royal Netherlands armed forces called the royal Netherlands space force/koninklijke nederlandse ruimte dienst.

Whit the oversight commission formed result began to quickly like the USS Amsterdam who would become the flagship of the royal Netherlands space force , commander Doorman would be promoted to rear admiral and become its commander.

The USS Amsterdam would be renamed KNRS Amsterdam and become the flagship of the royal Netherlands space force and the royal Netherlands navy would provide the crew for the starship while the royal Netherlands army would provide its security detail and landings detail.
Also the oversight commission after many long discussions came to the conclusion that war whit Germany or Japan was possible and therefore decided that the Netherlands would begin to rearm as fast as possible and whit all needs available.

Some of the things the Netherlands government decided to order in the first year where.

The building of four Tromp-class cruisers and eight Gerard Callenburgh-class destroyers who will be build whit technology from the RNSS Amsterdam and information from and should be in service before 1940.
The car manufacturer DAF would build for the royal Netherlands army more than 240 heavily modified M.35 armored cars based on the Landsverk M.39 armored car.

Fokker which was the main aircraft manufacturer in the Netherlands would start building the Fokker G-1 fighter-cruiser, Fokker D-21 mono-wing fighter who would be slightly different that the original in great numbers, Fokker also would begin using the information from both the ship library and the holodecks in designing a fighter capable of handling any adversary in the sky.

And the last thing that was decided was that the naval bases of Den Helder, Soerabaja , Tjilatjap and Parera would be modernized and upgraded.
