In keeping with the Pador Military Forces fleet's internal security mission, this class was designed with a defensive mindset. Designed and built by Pador after 179 weeks for the prototype and 143 weeks for the production models at huge expense. They are half the size of their big brothers the Gridlow Class Heavy Cruisers. Built to support the ships of the line for combat duty in the Far Home Sector, capable of conducting patrol cruises in the Distant Fringe. They are armed with an excellent particle accelerator spinal mount for ship killing, a repulsor bay, eighty triple sand caster turrets, ten triple beam laser turrets, and ten dual fusion gun turrets. There are also ten heavy missile bays for orbital bombardment. It carries a small platoon of 25 rapid response jump troops, with two 20 ton recovery boats. They are supported by a platoon of 4 dton Grav tanks. It has jump 2 range and 4 G acceleration, and have a 3 agility rating to compensate for the lack of hull armor. It carries enough internal fuel for a jump 2 with a jump 1 reserve. They can carry a jump 2 drop tank as well for long range strikes into Sath Alliance territory when needed. The fully streamlined needle/wedge structure hull is fitted with fuel scoops and on board fuel purification for wilderness ocean refueling. It carries a model 6 fib computer, a back up computer and extra screen generators in the event of battle damage. It is tanker dependent for longer range fleet maneuvers. They can deliver an offensive punch on par with the heavy cruiser, which is capable of crippling enemy capital ships and disabling major enemy fleet elements. However, the lack the defensive suite to survive a lengthy slug fest. They must shoot and scoot, to stay alive, to fight another day. They are also charged with leading flotillas of destroyers on raids against lighter targets. They can carry some cargo to allow longer patrols without resupply.
