The Type TJ class Merchant is a mercantile starship.
- It is a civilian ship and a Merchant Vessel.
Description (Specifications)
The Imperiallines Type TJ class Merchant is externally identical to the Imperiallines Type TI Frontier Transport; internally, its only difference is the installation of Jump-6 drives and a reduced cargo capacity.
While Type TI ships routinely cover Imperiallines territory conducting trade and commerce, the Type TJ ships use their immense, jump capacity to serve as clandestine Imperial couriers.
Note: The ship's transponder will show it to be a Type TI. Officially, the Type TJ does not exist.
