History-
Developed to make full use of the various LN-64, LN-64A, LN-65, LN-65A and LN-71 Warp Engines, compacted into another Reliant-Deriative hull for smoother Warp Field Geometry, and to present less of a profile, these ships revolutionized Escort Design, and after two years, replaced all 0X Escorts, performing well escorting SCSes and CVs in the General War, doing somewhat adequately against the ISC and Andromedans.
