The Tempest Class strike frigate is an Escort ship belonging to Calixis and surrounding sectors.1
Design
It is designed to engage enemies in short-range fights; it is designed with less ranged firepower than other frigates and equipped instead with short-range broadsides, assault boats and complements of troops for boardings. In order to get near to the enemy ships without suffering much damage, its prow is triple-armoured and its plasma drives are boosted.1 Since all those features require a lot of space, it is larger than a Sword Frigate and its components can be rearranged to suit commercial purposes.1
