The Khanate class System Defense Boat is a defensive warship.
- It is a paramilitary ship and an System Defense Boat.
Description (Specifications)[edit]
It is a streamlined, needle/wedge fitted with fuel scoops for ocean refueling. For defense, the thick metallic hull carries the best armor available at TL–10. These are system defense boats, which can be transported as light battle riders, one at a time, on the Yedidah class Fleet Tenders. This craft carries a pair of 20 ton away boats. They are fitted with a pair of model 4 fib computers, and rely on a large missile bay for their offensive punch. They are capable of 6Gs of acceleration and have 6 agility. Their thick armor and massive engines and power plants makes them more expensive to build than their jump capable tenders. Occasionally, the away boats are replaced by Reaper class Attack Boats, for extra offensive power.
