Redspike class System Defense Boat (Military Spaceship)

The Redspike class takes its name from a spectacular flower of Trin, and is a standard SDB design dating back centuries. Not all systems follow the convention of naming these vessels after flowers. The Redspike exhibits no unusual design features. It is a typical TL9 design, arranged as a tailstander due to the lack of artificial gravity.
