Fast, maneuverable, lightweight, FTL-capable spacecraft, utilized by the Cosca. Probably looks something like a Pullman car.

Designed to carry one person, the pilot, and life support for up to two months. In addition the craft has on-board automated systems to support self-induced hibernation, if required to preserve the life of the pilot.

The craft is only lightly armed, but has some fairly hefty shielding. Armament is normally under AI control, but that can be superseded by the human pilot. For mission support, it carries two HSIT devices, which are attached to the exterior of the hull, and contains interfaces and targeting/programming systems for those devices.
