COMMENTS
The Peel class provincial corvette has been designed with piracy
suppression and boarder patrolling in mind. With 5Gs and jump-3,
it has good tactical and strategic mobility without the higher
burdens imposed by IN fleet requirements (6G, J4).  It includes
a ship's boat and an attached marine team to do inspections and
boardings, and has extensive backups in case of battle damage or
equipment failure.  The cargo capacity is enough for about four
months of cruise time, and the extra power plant fuel allows for
at least two months uninterrupted operation (aside from jump fuel
requirements).  The jump fuel tank is separated into three separate
100 ton sections to minimize the possibility of a catastrophic
fuel loss.
