Organized into oversized squadrons these light ships where thrown into the attack en masse.  The swarm's only hope was to close with the enemy as fast as their 5Gs would permit to unleash their twin plasma cannons at point blank range.  They had no defense and were not difficult to damage if you could score a hit on these agile, fragile craft.

This sleek design came as a complete surprise to the harried picket boat crews who first encountered it.  The massive power signature of the oversized reactor was an unwelcome herald of this fast and agile craft.  Sacrificing everything for maneuverability it lacked defenses, jump range and fuel tankage.  Having to forage for hydrogen to ensure its ability to return home tended to make encounters desperate struggles for survival without mercy.
