The Green Hornet is a Scout.

Description (Specifications)

The Green Hornet is based on the hull of a salvaged Scout/Courier but has been extensively modified. A 24 Ton ventral payload bay has been cut into the hull: it is fitted with a capsule launcher which can that can accommodate a variety of loads, including up to 48 assault capsules.

Basic Ship Characteristics

Following the Imperial Navy and IISS Universal Ship Profile and data, additional information is presented in the format shown here. The small craft factor indicates the number of squadrons (of ten craft) carried on the ship. Tonnage on the universal ship profile is shown in kilotons (thousands of tons) where necessary. [1]

History & Background (Dossier)

The Green Hornet is a salvaged Scout/Courier hull which Harry Palmer, the commander of a Starmerc group known as Harry's Hornets, had completely re-manufactured to TL-15 standards, including having the hull armored. The vessel has been rearmed and has state of the art electronics, sensors and equipment.
