Shark-Class 2,200-Ton Anti-Piracy Destroyer

Having pirate problems? The Imperial Navy is here to help!

A Mongoose 2e design. The Shark-Class Anti-Piracy Destroyer is a specialized and very expensive ship with a singular mission: to stalk and eliminate pirates. It is made for solo operations and does not have J4 capability to allow for a reduced size and cost. Built with the very best stealth options, including a low emissions (x3) maneuver drive and stealth jump capabilities, and armed to the teeth, including with enough ion cannons to render most pirate ships powerless and anti-jump missiles, it can shadow likely merchant targets that would interest a pirate undetected until it is time to strike and board, or simply reduce the pirate to wreckage in the worst case. Can use up to 15 stealthy probe drones to spread its net wide while looking for lurking foes.

It has two point defense lasers that can be used to defend both itself and merchant traffic at need. It possesses armor that can shrug off most pirate weapons and is armored inside as well. It also hosts 15 marines that can use a boarding tube to pry pirates out of their shells and a nice big brig to hold the survivors in, as well as 50 low berths to stash prisoners. Comes with an extra pilot, astrogator, a pair of engineers, and a mechanic to get any prize ships back to port.

Buy a Navy guy a brew the next time you see one in the local pub. He's earned it.
