Description: The most advanced vessel – electronically speaking – in the Earth Force navy, the Delphi has revolutionized scouting practices since its emergence in 2261. Using a fully tachyon-enhanced communications array like those found on military stations, the Delphi can stay at extreme ranges well beyond those of a normal warship and fully scan entire systems without even triggering the long-range scanners of the enemy.
Due to the nature of its role in a military intelligence gathering aspect, Delphi vessels tend to be well protected and held in extremely tight reserve during an actual encounter. Also the first Earth Alliance warships to be equipped as standard with a dual-jump drive for emergency exits from ambushes or battlefield errors, the Delphi has been known to simply jump into a system, have a look around, then jump right back out again with everything that the awaiting attack fleet needs to know.
