Capable of 3G acceleration and 3 Agility. It carries enough internal fuel for a Jump-2 with a Jump-1 reserve. It is fitted with Jump-2 drop tanks for trans-rift extended range. The streamlined needle/wedge hull is fitted with fuel scoops and fuel purification for wilderness ocean refueling. They carry 115 marines, with drop capsules and have a pair of model/6 fib computers, and redundant screens. Some military experts feel the armor is too light for a ship of the line.
