Jumpmax class Courier/secret

While this class is publicly dismissed as just a bunch of one-off projects serving local routes, in truth this is a vital tool of the Imperial bureaucracy, which coopts any design efforts that look likely to create another Jumpmax, muddling their public results (thus the official confusion between whether they would have made a new design or just another Jumpmax) and paying off the designers (quite often including knighting if the lead personnel are not already nobles, making them among the group of people who make use of Jump-6 couriers on the Imperium's behalf anyway).

See Express Boat/secret for more details on how the Jumpmax class and similar ships are used.
