The Leedos class Frigate is a light warship.

Description (Specifications)

This TL–11 craft are fitted with the best ship's computer available, a military grade model/5 fib ship computer adjacent to the bridge. The needle/wedge hull is lightly armored and fully streamlined with scoops and on board fuel purification to allow wilderness ocean refueling. The ship has a powerful maneuver drive capable of 6Gs acceleration, but no agility. The ship is capable of Jump-2, and carries enough internal fuel for a Jump-2 with a Jump-1 reserve. They are fitted with Jump-2 drop tanks for increased range when crossing rift zones.

It carries a particle accelerator bay, and a pair of triple missile turrets. The large fusion power plant is rated to keep all the energy weapons and computers running, but doesn't generate enough for agility. There is a small cargo hold, which can double as a missile magazine.

There are 11 command crew, 5 engineers, 4 gunnery, 1 flight, 2 services, and 11 marines.

They deploy a 3 dton Narit Air Raft, as an interface vehicle when orbital port facilities and shuttle service are unavailable.

History & Background (Dossier)

1 in service. This is a prototype Frigate was designed and built by the Yimin Jiti, a state in the central-rimward portion of the Halcyon Sector. It was built at Narit.

Distant Fringe Vessels

The Distant Fringe is said to be a far spinward-rimward area inhabited by colonists and refugees originating on Terra. The region is extremely isolated, separated from the rest of Charted Space by vast, almost uncrossable rifts that were once broached by a system of calibration Points and the use of tankers. Those few academics within Charted Space who have found references to the Distant Fringe regard it as little more than a tall tale. Likewise, many of the inhabitants of the Distant Fringe believe the existence of Charted Space to be mythical.[3]

Vessels originating within the Distant Fringe are very rarely encountered outside of the region. However, misjumps do occur and anomalies with bizarre spacetime and Jumpspace effects exist: as such, craft of this type are not entirely unknown within Charted Space.[4]

Class Naming Practice/s & Peculiarities

Each vessel within the class is named by the government of the state that produces it. They generally draw on traditional naming protocols and it is not uncommon for a historical class name to be reused.

  • Individual vessels within the class are issued specific serial numbers and transponder codes.
  • Naming a ship is considered a serious affair and is generally accompanied by a traditional ceremony, usually pouring a local beverage over the bows of the craft. Starfarers tend to be superstitious folk and a ship with a frivolous name is considered "unlucky".
