Contents

Light Patrol Craft (LPC)

Planetary defense crafts that supplement and augment Home Guard defensive capabilities. Several sub-classes of LPC are in use throughout the Commonwealth, depending on the particulars of the operational environment. LPCs are very fast, highly maneuverable and operate most often in squadrons of eight.

Manpower

  • Ship's Complement: max. 10

Heavy Patrol Craft (HPC)

Similar to the light craft, but equipped with 2 ELS tubes and an AP Gun turret. Like the LPC, several sub-classes of the HPC are in use throughout the Commonwealth, and each can be used as an additional medium-range sensor platform by an HCBG or PRG during combat operations.
