The Spruance Class “Pursuit Craft” is a high speed/low armor interceptor designed to out accelerate its targets in both normal and Intra-space. It’s twin oversized engines give the ship an engine to shop mass ratio of .58/1, making the spruance the fastest ship in its weight class and more importantly in all higher weight classes. Its 2nd generation free point Intra-space probe is capable of rapidly opening a high compression intra-space tear give the ship one of the fastest FTL systems to date. The Spurance is very lightly armored, being made largely of super-hardened steel and titanium to reduce weight. It uses a low voltage bi-layer static shield that is effective against low wattage lasers but not much else. The ship relies on its speed and point defense systems for defense. It is not meant to fight other warships but rather to hunt down and prosecute lightly armed and armored assault ships and to act as a patrol vessel.
