'''Commerce Protection Fleets''' are used in the [[T'au Empire]] to protect their commerce, but the fleets mostly act as legal privateers.{{Fn|1a}} 

They do so by attacking, crippling and claiming bounties from any non-[[T'au]] aligned spacecraft, that enter areas the empire controls. This has made the Fleets the scourge of the [[Eastern Fringe]],{{Fn|1a}} despite many of their members genuinely believing they are protecting their [[T'au Empire|Empire]]'s trading rights.{{Fn|1b}}
