Using a 400-ton hull, the Hiver Escort is a warship used for frontier patrol and military escort duties.

Adjacent to the bridge is a computer Model/4. There are 20 staterooms and no low berths. The ship has four hardpoints and four tons allocated for fire control. Installed on the hardpoints are four triple turrets, two with triple beam lasers, two with a mix of two missile racks and one sandcaster each. There is one ship's vehicle: a 40-ton pinnace. Cargo capacity is 7 tons. The ship is streamlined.
