Border Patrol Boat

BpB 7040 series - Enroe Multi Task Brigg

Originally based on the Seagull Class - Light patrol destroyer -  Enroe proposed to the Union Spatial Navy in 4000 [1]

Enroe having invested much in this desin, slightly re worked the desin and proposed it to the Union Border Guard. There it won out against the competition and was picked as the main space craft of the Union Border Guard. It has since been upraded and modernized, but has remained the UBG ship of choice. Of course officially it is not a ship but a "boat".

It is a 450 meter long FTL capable vessel with, Class IX weaponry and room for 2 x 5 Border Patrol Fighters.

The 7040 has the finest long range sensors, a crew of up to 200 and a host of rescue and emergency assistant equipment. [2]

The UBG operates approximatley 5 million of these. 75,000 are special configured for "Space Weather Observation "

[1] The Navy picked the Barracuda Class design of SII instead.

[2] Union Border Guard is by charter also a search and rescue organization. Assisting border colones and space ships in distress.
