== Description ([[Specifications]]) ==
 
−
While the typical ''Type-R'' is constructed within a [[TL:10-12]] paradigm, the ''Gyro Cadiz''es are built to [[TL:13-15]] standards and are considerable improved over older models and classes. They use improved winglets, a tougher reinforced hull, and modular [[ship computer]] components ahead of their time. The old cockpit / bridge has been reinforced with better interfaces as well.

== History & Background ([[Dossier]]) ==
 
−
The first ''Gyro Cadis-class'' rolled off the assembly lines in the year [[452]], a product of [[GSbAG]] engineering and [[Ling-Standard Products]] [[electronics]]. They were widely sold in [[coreward]] space including the [[Vargr Extents]]. The [[Octagon Society]] was known to have purchased quite a few before many of their assets were later repossessed or bought at auction by the [[Travellers' Aid Society]]. Due to their preponderance and their similarities to earlier models of [[Type R class Subsidized Merchant]]s, a significant number were converted into [[Q-Ship]]s.
 
−
 
 
−
Due to their widespread use among [[Aslan]], [[Vargr]], [[Human]]s, and others, one can find such [[vessel]]s in almost any role from [[subsidized merchant]]s on one end to converted [[corsair vessel]]s on another... to even one more counter in the form of [[Q-Ship]]s. They also are often pressed into [[Auxiliary]] roles for local nobles and [[fleet]]s.
