Havoc Class Merchant Raiders, also known as the Havoc Class Frigate are small Escort-sized spacecraft used most commonly by Pirates, particularly in the Calixis Sector.

Overview
An old design, the Havoc is primarily used for plundering against Imperial Merchant Fleet shipping. A typical Havoc Raider has fast engines, sizable cargo space, and enough firepower to rival many frigates. However their armour is relatively weak, meaning that they tend to have a hard time going toe-to-toe with a comparable naval vessel. This weakness has earned them the nickname "glass cannon".[1]
