History & Background (Dossier)
Originally the design was intended to carry an additional computer, back up screens, and an auxiliary bridge to help absorb critical hits from battle damage. Once the final hull was fabricated, the freakish thickness of the armor precluded these design features. The larger power plant had to be scaled back as well, which limited the agility. These streamlined attack boats can be used to scoop fuel for the large fleet tender. These were envisioned to be able to stand toe to toe with the likes of a Ch'kaahi class Battle Rider, if need be, and to survive the encounter.
