History

These 300 ton Corvettes (SD) vessels are non-jump-capable intra-system escorts and screening ships. There were 226 of the K56-Class built. They are TL10 and a bare few serve as training vessels. Dozens of others have been sold to private buyers, while dozens more have been scrapped. They feature a streamlined hull with thick armored plates, and three turrets. They carry a triple beam laser battery, a triple missile turret and a pair of plasma guns.
