Byrsh-Class patrol ships are combat ships of the Humankind Empire Abh, and are employed in large numbers by the Laburec. These units while older than their sister ships, the Lauth-Class, they continue to serve in combat and logistic support roles for the Empire, seeing greater use during The War.

History[edit | edit source]

Having entered service prior to the outbreak of The War, their role suits the Laburec and then galactic convention of mobile warfare, with recons done in force by capital ships instead of smaller vessels. As such, this ship also could fight a pitched battle well despite its limited ammunition supply. Several redesigns and refits to these vessels would be completed so it and her sister class the Lauth-Class would continue to serve front line roles.

The War ICY 952 to ICY 955[edit | edit source]

Designed similarly to the Lauth-Class, it served in the Futune patrol squadron assigned to Admiral Trife during the battles of Battle of Sufugnoff and Skaresh. These units proved valuable in punching through enemy formations and delivering a good punch, albeit, their limited numbers in production meant that in the three year ceasefire, the Laburec would put in orders for numerous starbases to resume production of these ships. Additionally, emergency roll outs of older vessels occurred, refitting them as quickly as possible for battle.

Operational Use[edit | edit source]

Used extensively in every recon squadron, it's use evolved with the changing conventions of war especially after the Second Battle of Aptic. With greater emphasis on combat roles, refitted Byrsh-Class vessels would continue to see service even in the late war. The operations conducted with this class include:
