Tech: Human, with inspiration from Canid and Xian tech
Country of Origin: Canada
Captain: Captain Gabrielle Tyler, Human, Female
Role: Battleship, Assault Carrier

Note: Normally kept in reserve, but as up until recently, the Xian War had curtailed the developement of exporation vessels, the ship is currently assigned to carry a survey team to the planet the Fleet found in the Expanse, where Confederate President Chloe Landry proposed setting up Earth's first interstellar colony. Perhaps a waste of military resources, but in lieu of having a proper science vessel on hand, having the firepower to protect the eggheads while they do their survey may well pay off.
