'''Description''': The Dargan is an older design with an even older purpose in mind, that of a swift and deadly assault. Built on a classic Centauri hull shape, the Dargan is agile and wields enough firepower to make its lighting attack runs matter against the proper targets. It is not the most heavily armed cruiser in the fleet, but it is certainly among the most agile. Bringing its laser and matter cannons to bear on a target as it sweeps by can be devastating – but only if the Dargan can get back out of danger before a larger or tougher enemy puts a bit of focus on it.

Many garrison fleets put the Dargan to good use as a relief or first strike vessel. Its unfailing ability to be exactly where it is most needed has saved more than one Centauri outpost from the depredations of raiders. Its compliment of fighters is also a valuable asset in any kind of skirmish, but most admirals rarely find time to slow down long enough to scramble their fighters; doing so could cost the greater value of the ship itself – leaving the Sentris to fend for themselves!
