The Gallant class were one of the higher displacement battleriders to enter
service with the Third Imperium. With a displacement of thirty-six thousand
tons the Gallants were larger than many cruisers, though they were smaller than
the fifty thousand ton Hadrian class battle tenders.
Few classes of battle tender
were equipped to carry such large riders, the Triumph class battletender being
a notable exception. Most tenders carried battleriders no larger than twenty
thousand displacement tons.
Battlerider squadrons of Gallants were normally equipped with four Gallants
and a single tender, such as the Triumph class.
