History & Background (Dossier)

The Type SMU-4C was first placed in service in 1035 and is still common throughout the Spinward Marches.

Several type variants exist to cater for specific or unusual requirements:

• The 4C is a typical Imperial Navy model.
• The 4D is a Scout Service model identical except for the computer and sensor packages.
• A number of similar types without the heavy armament can be found on observation missions or as information/marker buoys.
