| =='''Description'''==
| |
| | |
| The Tethys can trace its origins back to the original early anti-raider operations that took place during the conquest of the Earth Alliance’s neighboring systems. Originally intended as a police vessel, its success has since earned its deployment for virtually every mission Earth Force is capable of assigning. | |
| | |
| When deployed for civilian or defense purposes, it is best served as a ‘police cutter’, but when in fleet service it is commonly used as a light frigate or gunboat. | |
| | |
| More versions of the hardy Tethys have existed than any other ship class in the Alliance. Because it is so small and inexpensive to build and retrofit t, it is frequently employed as a test bed for new technologies like new reduced-size lasers or compact missile systems. Its sturdy construction allows it to stand up to the rigors of field testing and come back to be debriefed on usefulness. As far as Earth ships go, it is easily one of the more maneuverable. | |
