Following the [[Imperial Navy]] and [[IISS]] [[Universal Ship Profile]] and data, additional information is presented in the format shown here. The [[small craft]] factor indicates the number of squadrons (of ten craft) carried on the ship. Tonnage on the universal ship profile is shown in kilotons (thousands of tons) where necessary. {{Page cite|name= Fighting Ships |page= 10 |version= Classic Traveller}}

=== General Description & Deck Plans ===
 
−
Decks are stacked on top of one another perpendicular to the axis of thrust. Up is toward the bow and down is toward aft. The bridge is toward the front of the ship, up, with the computer and sensors. The engine room, and fuel are aft with the power plant and drives.

Designed and built by [[Saldazar (world)|Saldazar]] (1633 [[Far Home Sector|Far Home]]) A341753-B after 56 weeks for the prototype and 45 weeks for the production models at modest expense. In keeping with the [[Saldazar Security Squadron]]'s internal security mission, this class was designed with a defensive mindset. They carry the armor to limit critical internal hits.  The weapon systems have been reworked based on combat experience.

They carry the armor to limit critical internal hits.  The weapon systems have been reworked based on combat experience.  
 
The Class A refit ships remove the two single plasma gun turrets and these are replaced with six beam lasers grouped into a single high intensity battery.  The triple missile launchers also fire as a single battery now. Four ships have been converted so far.  A total of nine ships of this class are currently in service.  Six of these ships can be carried by the three available [[Trundi Fringe class Light Cruiser]]s.  This affords extended range standoff strikes.

=== Class Naming Practice/s & Peculiarities ===
 
−
Each vessel within the class is named by the government of the [[polity|state]] that produces it. They generally draw on traditional naming protocols and it is not uncommon for a historical class name to be reused.
 
−
* Individual vessels within the class are issued specific serial numbers and [[Transponder|transponder]] codes.
 
−
* Naming a ship is considered a serious affair and is generally accompanied by a traditional ceremony, usually pouring a local beverage over the bows of the craft. Starfarers tend to be superstitious folk and a ship with a frivolous name is considered "unlucky".
