The Alliance Inferior-class Patrol cruiser is a 1.1 kilometer vessel used for practically every military action in the Alliance. Patrolling Space lanes, guarding bigger ships, transport, you name it. Despite how you may think of it from the name, the Inferior is a terrifying combatant.

It has a crew of 200 and a capacity for 300 passengers. It has 2 Steeltech Drive engines and 4 sublight drives. It has also been given the ability to blink warp. With the name Inferior it would be obviuos many would look down upon thus ship but trust us when we say this. If it was a bad ship then the Alliance wouldn't still be using it after 16 years. They have used this ship longer then the Superior-class. It is also a common vessel to use for Alliance headed Relief missions.
