- First commercially available FTL ship for civilians and smaller companies.

It became the most sold space ship in UE / Union History[1]. The ship was sold with a crash course in piloting, navigation and engineering. It was modular and versatile and could be configured and customized to almost any task. Over 20 million SII Poodle were built from 2172 – 2200. (After that it was replaced by the Poodle II and Poodle III models)

There were thousands of after market companies that offered customization, add nos,different engines shields, weapons and everything in between.

SII offered several conversions, such as the War Poodle, the Chain Poodle and the Freight Poodle.

In 2183 the first Poodle Race competition between Sol System and Spqr was held, it became very popular and is still held every year. There are several classes and the most popular one is the Open Custom – where wild and crazy customized Race Poodles compete.

The Poodle will always be remembered as the first space ship that made Terran Humans truly free and allowed them to reach other star systems on their own and settle,mine, relocate on their own without government arks.

The basic Poodle was a very ugly ship and consisted of two spheres (the freight/habitat sphere and the engineering/fuel sphere) that could be separated in an emergency or used as a power station for a new colony.
