Starships of the Border Worlds

Shipyards of the Border Worlds
Praqit Industries
(215 slips, construction multiple 1)
This Company, based over the rocky world of Praqit, is the largest local shipbuilding company in the Border Worlds. Designing mostly warships for the local governments, they have done plenty of business in both sectors.

Praqit Mobile
(110 slips, construction multiple 1.75)
As a competitor to Praqit Industries, they don?t show much promise, but they do produce a modest line of fighters and transports that see mild use in the region, though most are sold to individuals and pirate bands.

Subpro
(350 slips, construction multiple 1)
Originally based in the inner rim, Subpro Corporation set up a sizeable shipyard in the Naislia sector to augment its home yards. This yard specifically builds many of the Z-95 Headhunters that they designed with Incom.

Starfighters
Subpro R-26 Cannibal-class
The Cannibal-class starfighter has only seen major use in the region around border, though some militias and smaller governments have been known to use squadrons of them, as well. With its sleek design and powerful lasers, it has been known to be able to take on as many as two other equal pilots simultaneously.

Praqit Mobile JJ-7 Mobile Bomber
When the small company of Praqit Mobile decided to design a bomber, they went for cheap and heavy. Thus, when the Mobile Bomber came out, it had an instant success that has slowed down much in recent years.

Praqit Industries 980 Spider-class
In the competition for military starfighter contracts, the people of Praqit Industries came out with a legendary design in the Spider-class ship. Its large weapons and excellent maneuverability make it a force to be reckoned with in any battlefield. Many of its design elements are so excellent that they have been stolen from other larger companies.

Praqit Industries OG-348 Heavy Hauler

Praqit Mobile Hills-class transport
The most successful model of transport the company has, this ship is excellent for a first time buyer. It has plenty of cargo space and enough room for a couple of friends along the way. Its moderate defenses are made up for by the fact that it has an additional ten weapon emplacement points beyond its normal armament. Obviously, ?stock? was not something they intended this ship to stay.

Capital Ships
Praqit Industries Silver-class Gunship
In the Border market few ships have as much firepower as the Silver-class gunship. With multiple turbolasers and laser cannons, it can hold its own against most pirate bands. This is the backbone of the navies of the Border worlds and few have managed to stand up to it in cost or effectiveness.
