Rather than having the standard three meter high deck, the Longevity classes have 2.8 high decks. Two decks have a total height of 5.6 meters which allows the ship to be stored on two decks of a larger standard 3-meter deck starship.

Description (Specifications)[edit]

The Longevity-class 100-ton lifeboat is designed for use where a Jump-1 lifeboat is required to assure survival of key personnel.

The TL–15 lifeboat is generally used for Naval command ships where the command staff possess information of a highly sensitive nature. These personnel, in the event a Naval Fleet has jumped into a situation where the enemy has overwhelming advantage in fire power, can safely jump out system by way of the Longevity.

Commercial transportation fleets also use the Longevity class 100-ton lifeboat on feeder routes to their main line, low-passage trunk service.

The Longevity classes are based upon a similar 100-ton base. The 5.6 meter high (two deck) ships are each 18 meters long and 15 meters wide. Rather than having the standard three meter high deck, the Longevity classes have 2.8 high decks. Two decks have a total height of 5.6 meters which allows the ship to be stored on two decks of a larger standard 3-meter deck starship.

The crew consists of a commander/pilot, a navigator, a computer operator/engineer, and two medical doctors. Typically the naval procedure is to revive frozen medical personnel first to assist revivial of the other personnel.
