It is a vessel with 1-G and J-1 performance. The {{TL|10}} streamlined needle/wedge structured hulls are equipped with fuel scoops and on board fuel purification for wilderness ocean refueling. They carry enough internal fuel for two jumps. They are famous for their ability to do very fast pre-checks and initiate jumps quickly, to escape and get a warning to high chains of command. They have a [[model/1]] [[ship computer]] mounted adjacent to the [[bridge]] and are capable of 1 G acceleration and have no agility rating. Because of their large cargo bay they can be fitted with collapsible or dis-mountable fuel tanks for when additional range is needed.
