These are inexpensive unstreamlined native nickle-iron asteroid hulls, lightly armored vessels designed to hit hard and fade away. They carry the most powerful spinal mounted meson gun available. Hindered by light armor, they do have redundant systems to absorb some critical hits. They lost maneuver drives and are slower as a result. A larger than normal set of fusion reactors were required to power the massive meson gun. The four heavy missile turrets are useful for dealing with intermediate targets. They are most vulnerable when launching and recovering to their tender. All fuel purification was removed as unnecessary, which means less cost and more cargo room. | These are inexpensive unstreamlined native nickle-iron asteroid hulls, lightly armored vessels designed to hit hard and fade away.

It has vacuum cargo transfer locks with grapples. | * x4 primary [[airlock]]s and x10 secondary service [[airlock]]s are located around the vessel.
