KITE CLASS PINNACE

FORMER SOLOMANI CONFEDERATION


Back to the Starships and Spacecraft contents

The Kite class pinnace is normally found as a carried craft on Solomani starships such as the Endeavour class patrol frigate. Unlike most craft of this size the Kite makes provision for the installation of a standard weapon socket and has more than 4 Mw available for powering weapon systems. As a consequence numerous versions of this vessel may be found, according to operational requirements.
