The '''Firestorm Class Frigate ''' is a varient of the [[Sword Class Frigate]]. Designed to link the speed and manoverability of an escort, with the bite of a [[lance]]. The Sword's systems to power its laser [[weapons battery]] have been reconfigured to power the single prow-mounted lance of the Firestorm.
It is not uncommon to see a squadron of Firestorms supporting independant squadrons of Swords and [[Cobra Class Destroyer|Cobras]]. In situations like these, it falls to the Firestorms to deal damage to capital ships, and rival escorts once the other two classes have lowered the enemies shields.
