Description: The Hermes was originally used as a military vessel to bring critical war supplies and personnel to the frontlines in combat. Armed with lethal missile launching systems as well as defensive particle beams, the Hermes is also capable of defending itself from Raider vessels and enemy frigates that attempt to slip past the lines to attack this expensive piece of military hardware. The ship not only carries a flight of Starfuries for its own defense but is also capable of opening its own jump point into hyperspace.

Unlike many Earth military vessels, the Hermes was constructed in civilian shipyards, although its weapons were added at a fleet military space dock. Its huge success in the military made it a natural choice for civilian activities as well, and hundreds of the hardy vessels now traverse the space lanes as independent freight haulers, passenger liners and mercenary escorts.
