The Scimitar class light fighter was in widespread service with Solomani
forces, especially second line units, at the start of the Second Solomani Rim
War. As the war progressed Scimitars were gradually pushed into first line
units because of losses of more advanced types.
Somewhat larger than the F14 Scorpion they could not use the launch tubes on
Consort class escort carriers, however they were faster than the Scorpions, boasting a
5G capability.
