== History & Background ==
 
''Fearless'' class Heavy Fighters are streamlined and for their size have a very heavily armored hull. They offer 5G acceleration, are agile and armed with a pair of missile racks. The two man crew, officially at least, each have their own small stateroom for comfort on long system patrols. The vessel serves with the [[The Democratic People's Defense Forces]].
