The Archer class MRCB was widely deployed through the territories of the third imperium. It was employed as a carried craft on some larger imperial warships such as the BI-15 Titan class dreadnought. It also occasionly found use as a heavy system defence boat. An uprated version, Archer Type II, using TL15 sensor systems had after many delays also entered production, existing Archer Type Is were to have been brought up to type II standard. A pure TL15 development, Archer Type III had also entered production and was set to displace the type I and II from TL15 heavy units such as the Titan class. The specificatons below represent the Archer Type I which at the time of the collapse was still the most numerous type. |
